Hi,
I am adding a custom control to the ribbon inside of a ControlContainer. The custom control is a UserControl with a transparent background and some Infragistics controls on top (ie an UltraLabel with transparent background and a UltraComboEditor).
That being said, the control appears in the ribbon alright (besides some wierd resizing issue which I may ask about in a separate post). However, when I hover over the control, the ribbon group attempts to do its background gradient fade magic. The fade is much slower now that this user control is inside and flickers quite a bit.
I'm aware of the probable reason why - The UserControl and the UltraLabel must continuously update their background painting alongside the groups fade. The question is, how do I fix this?

Thanks. I was also able to resolve the issue by enabling double buffering on the user control!
I just took a closer look into this and it turns out you can disable the transitions (fade animations) by setting the UltraToolbarsManager.TransitionAreas to None.
Is anyone aware of any update on this issue? I am having the exact same problem. Is there any way I can disable the hot track effect on the ribbon or on the page group that has my custom ControlContainer? Are there any other possible work arounds?
Thank you.
I'm not sure there is much that can be done for this from your end. I would recommend submitting the issue to the support group: http://ko.infragistics.com/gethelp.
