VCL Style Packs from DelphiStyles.com: Impress Your Users and Clients with Stunning and Responsive U



Use the Vcl.Themes.TStyleEngine class to register style hook classes for your custom VCL components. A style hook is a class that you must implement to provide custom message handling for your custom control. If you have a custom control that needs special visual processing, create a style hook class that processes messages by inheriting from Vcl.Themes.TStyleHook.




VCL Style Packs from DelphiStyles.com



I have been trying to make use of custom themes in my applications but am a bit frustrated by (what appear to be) limitations in the TMS implementation of themes. As far as I can see, the AdvAppStyler component only supports a built in set of (mostly) Office based themes however Delphi itself allows the use of any theme (such as those at www.delphistyles.com) via VSF files. Some other component suites (e.g. LMD) also support the use of these themes.


Developer Express styles are a whole different beast. They wrote them before Delphi had their own styling engine. AFAIK Dev Ex has no intention of supporting VCL styles. That info was from a few years ago, and things may have changed.


Not to discredit Almediadev, from what i have seen it seems to be a brilliant lib, but the cross-styles setup does not (to my current knowledge) support the DX Ribbon, it focuses on the QuantumGrid. This may have changed since i last checked.
