Delphi 2009 Ribbon Controls - Glass Frame

Question

I started using the new built-in ribbon controls in Delphi 2009 and using a custom frame so that the application button and toolbar with a mini-bar slide up the window frame, but I wonder if Vista should be used as an Office 2007 effect, and if so, then how would I enable this setting.

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

Unfortunately, it does not seem that the CodeGear implementation of Ribbon control is compatible with the glass frame. Something about how he draws turns it off.

Answer 2

You can try this http://www.bilsen.com/windowsribbon/index.shtml

It interacts with the Native Ribbon Framework and works great.
