Problem with CustomTitleBar and UseSkin.

created 6 months ago

When we activate the skin (UseSkin = True) on a form that uses CustomTitleBar to place controls on the title bar, the controls are not in the correct position.

Hello Giorgio,

Thank you for the sample project. It helped me reproduce this behavior.

This issue occurs because our skins are not compatible with TTitleBarPanel since both use complex mechanisms to override the form's non-client area.

There are two possible solutions for this task:

  • Handle the OnSkinForm event to disable the form's skinning.
  • If you do not use complex controls, you can try our Ribbon Form as illustrated in the attached project.
