Re:Skinners roundup - anyone add to this list?
I have been trying to get VCLSkin to work in my app and it is pretty close
but still not quite there. I am running into problems with TcxDBCheckBox (DevExpress checkbox component) and it doesn't seem to handle nested forms any deeper than 1 level. Otherwise, real nice component and EXCELLENT support. Best Regards, Shane www.StumpWare.com "Eric Carlson" <XXXX@XXXXX.COM>writes QuoteVCLSkin www.link-rank.com/ |

Yep - AddNestForm - only works one level deep as far as I can tell.

Try creating the form, visible=false, skin it, then parent it.

Re:Skinners roundup - anyone add to this list?
Pan found my problem - I thought I needed to specify the parent form in the
first parameter and it needs to be the top form! Now if I can just get VCLSkin to work with TcxDBCheckBox and QG5, I will finally have skinning in my app! Best Regards, Shane www.StumpWare.com "Bob" <XXXX@XXXXX.COM>writes QuoteTry creating the form, visible=false, skin it, then parent it. |

Herbert,
Global support. DevExpress's stuff works great with their components but it doesn't skin the entire application like shell dialogs (open, save, etc). Pan has done an excellent job at giving developers a simple easy way to change the look & feel of their applications without having to do to much work. With that said, you need to make sure the controls you use are compatible. I had to change all my TcxPageControls to TPageControls (took me two changes at I had one application that I have over 100 tab controls in). Anyway, while I am still unable to use VCLSkin, I don't think I am that far away.
