Error when selecting TabStyle Office2019Style on ToostrioEx control

[Tom Krieg]

I had to select XPToolbar because ToolstripEx control is not listed in the dropdown.

I'm using ToolstripEx control with Visual Studio 2019 and Syncfusion Controls 18.2.0.44. When I change the TabStyle to Office2019Style, I get the following error.

Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.Tablendereroffice2019 is not accessible in this context because it is 'friend'

All the other styles don't give any errors. Can you please advise how I can use Office2019Style? .Net framework is 4.6
