Hi, the new April build is around the corner. Can we expect these new skins to be ported into VCL skinning library? Or is this postponed to another release? Mainly the high contrast skin is missing. I was thinking that the skins are easily exchangeable between WinForms and VCL. :-)
With regards.
Petr.
Hello Petr.
Thank you for your response. I have discussed this request with our developers.
These skins will not be available in April release. However, we will do our best to include these skins to the next build.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Best regards,
Ingvar.
Hi,
thanks for the information. I can wait :-).
You are always welcome, Petr! :)
Best regards,
Ingvar.
Some new skins were added to the .NET component line since I wrote this request. Can these new (VS2010, DevExpress Skins and others) should be also ported to VCL sometimes?
PS: Any news about the status :-)?
Hello Petr,
Thank you for your message.
We are planning to port all missing skins from the Windows Forms Skinning Library for the next release of our components - v2011 vol 2.
Regards,
Artem (DevExpress)
We have ported the following skins from our Windows Forms Skinning Library v2011 vol 1:
- Blueprint;
- DevExpress Dark Style;

We will ship these skins with the v2011 vol 2 release version. Check out sample screenshots in our blog post: http://community.devexpress.com/blogs/ctodx/archive/2011/10/14/delphi-sneak-peek-skins-skins-and-more-skins-coming-in-vcl-subscription-v2011-vol-2.aspx.

The TailSize additional property has been added to the following skin elements:
- The LayoutViewRecordCaptionLeft and LayoutViewRecordCaptionTop skin elements (the Grid product group);
- The GroupPanelCaptionBottom, GroupPanelCaptionLeft, GroupPanelCaptionRight, and GroupPanelCaptionTop skin elements (the Common product group).
Adjust the TailSize property value in your custom skins to improve the appearance of collapsed Layout View cards and collapsed layout groups. To learn more, refer to the corresponding topics in the ExpressSkins Library documentation.
