RadFrom display problem

[Cristian Apavaloaiei]

Hello,
I'm having problems with the RadForm component. This problem appears to me both in Q1 2010 and Q2 2010, .NET Framework 4. I'm running Windows 7 and using VS 2010. The problem is that the form does not appear to style itself correctly. I've attached a screenshot to show you the problem. I'm confused as to what is causing this problem, because I don't recall having this issue with Q2 2008 or even Q1 2010 before i had it uninstalled and installed again.

Thank you.

Edit: The form appears correctly in the Visual Studio Designer, the problem appears only when running the application.

Hi Cristian Apavaloaiei,

Thanks for contacting us.

I cannot see any undesired appearance in the RadRibbonForm in the screenshot that you have attached. Please note, that whenever you are using RadRibbonForm or RadForm with a RadRibbonBar control on it, the form automatically positions the RadRibbonBar half-way on the glassy title bar just as Microsoft Office 2007 applications do.

In RadRibbonForm, however, you can turn off this behavior and make the form appear the same way as in the Visual Studio Designer. You can do this by setting the AllowAero property of the form to false. You can do this in the form's constructor, after the InitializeComponent method call.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Dear ,

I have the same issue with RadRbibbon Form. its not showing proper theme. even i drag a Desert theme on Form.

i can't find the AllowAero property.

i was checking your demo as well there is no AllowAero property used.

in demo MDI Form is used normal RadForm which works fine with me, Issue in RadRibbon Form.
