Unable to visualize menus and tooltips from a ribbon toolbar

[penzoiders]

I am trying to make my application run on wine

first of all I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and wine 1.2, I did an override to native gdiplus.dll in order to let the graphical compontents of my app run "properly".
I also installed odbc client using this procedure http://wiki.winehq.org/NativeOdbc in order to use the mssql database.
I tried to run this with or without compiz, and result is the same.

From a preliminary test I see that the main problem is the ribbon toolbar, I found the following problems:

- the Ribbon Menu (the one used in RibbonNotePad demo) doesn't work
- the subitems doesn't work
- ribbon drop downs in general doesn't work
- ribbon hints doesn't work

In the attched screenshots you can see what in Windows works ok and not on Wine. I put 4 screenshots called Win1, Win2, Win3, Win4 that show the correct behaviour of RibbonNotePadDemo in Windows 7, and I put a screenshot of clicking on Application Menu in Wine/Linux.
download zip from here: http://www.devexpress.com/Support/Cente ... eef0aec5b8

I attach here also a test .exe that has only the functions that are misbehaving (in order to let you test just what is the problem) http://nordestsystems.com/transfer/Ribb ... adDemo.exe

I've also asked to the developer of the component about this issue.. http://www.devexpress.com/Support/Center/p/Q297131.aspx but I got no answer.

Since more or less all of what I need inside the software works, I just need to solve this graphical issue.

any help is appreciated.

thanks

Please file a bug at http://bugs.winehq.org
Attach your sample app
Include a one-click problem recipe (e.g. "do 'winetricks gdiplus', run
RibbonNotepadDemo.exe, click on the XYZZY icon
and note that the app hangs")
Attach screenshot of the sample app working properly on Windows if needed

Include a link to this thread

Good luck!
