Tab Caption disappears, if I change the windows classic theme to windows xp theme using visual studio 2005
Tags: KT, PUMA, Win XP, VC++
Hi Experts,

I have a dialog with a tab contorl with tab property "vertical" set to true. Now if I change the theme from windows classic to windows xp theme, the caption of the tab disappears. Is there any way to retain the tabs caption in windows xp theme mode with tabs in vertical alignment.

Thanx in advance

Could this be happening because the tab control fails to redraw? Try calling Invalidate() for the tab control when the theme changes.

If I started designing the form with windows xp theme applied, then also the tab caption does not appear.

And one more thing I am manually changing the theme from windows properties but not through the code.
