That may not be possible depending upon which components you use. However, everyone has found vclSkin to be the best and has support (minor modifications) for supporting DevEx components. The author is very responsive as well. http://www.link-rank.com/ "R. Levi" <levi_r (AT) doctor (DOT) com> wrote Quote: Witch one could you recomend? With out changing my existing project.

I would recommend VCLSkin from http://www.link-rank.com/. I've used it in several applications without having to change any of the forms or controls. It will also skin almost all the third party components I've used. There have been a few things it didn't natively support - the scroll bars in DevExpress Quantum Grid 4.5, or the wizard buttons in Jedi's TJvWizard. In both cases, it VCLSkin has enough event handlers and helper classes that it was possible to write a bit of extra code to skin those exceptions. (Well, the DevEx QG was a bit challenging.)

I would agree!!! :-) Yes, "Everyone" has found that VCLSkin (http://www.link-rank.com/) is by far superior and worth the money. 1. Pan provides great support 2. Easy to use 3. Only requires one component to use 4. Easy to remove (if needed) Back to top Peter S. Guest Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2005 9:16 pm    Post subject: Re: Skin or theme engines? Hello, I bought several skinning components. By far the best is VCLSkin from www.link-rank.com. A few days ago I also bought the excellent TMS Component pack which VCLSkin has no trouble to skin (with 1-2 code adjustments in TMS components code). The very best thing that Pan did in the last update, was to provide support for .mss styles so the skinning options one has are now are just unlimeted!!! (if you dont mind me saying so:o)). So my vote goes do Pan also... Regards Peter "R. Levi" <levi_r (AT) doctor (DOT) com> wrote Quote: Witch one could you recomend? With out changing my existing project.
