Hi,
HeDiBo, I am not sure what you mean by sentence “go back to the standard font”. Not skinned dialogs? I hope that it is not the actual topic. I just said, that dialogs caption can be drawn in “system settings font”, like now. It means no option how to change font in dialogs. Dialogs can stay as they are noweledhParticipantHi,
If you mean “What about first two problems”, problems with sWebLabel and mouseover, it is solved and it works properly now. <img src="style_emoticons//smile.gif” style=”vertical-align:middle” emoid=”:)” border=”0″ alt=”smile.gif” />
My opinions to your post (Nov 16):2. Yes, I think that is not problem, if dialogs will have standard font, from system, like now. Sometimes I ignore DPI in forms (Scaled), and I want to draw all items in all systems in the same size. So in this case, it would by very useful, if form caption (and whole form's captionbar) is always in the same style too. But it is not important for dialogs, so these can be drawn according to system settings.
1. I do not know how it is hard to make this, but if may I suggest:
Add “CustomTitleFont : TFont” and “UseCustomTitleFont : boolean” to SkinProvider. If UseCustomTitleFont is false, then you can use standard font from system like now, if it is true and CustomTitleFont not nil, then CustomTitleFont style can be used.
And publish these two properties in object inspector.
Of course, if it is too hard to implement this, I think that global variable is enought and there is nothing bad on it. What I need is option to set font style (fsBold especially).
Frankly, I probably have no use for individual font style of each form caption for now, just it would be a nice feature <img src="style_emoticons//smile.gif” style=”vertical-align:middle” emoid=”:)” border=”0″ alt=”smile.gif” />
I appreciate any option how to make form caption bold/non-bold.eledhParticipantHi,
yes, it sounds good. It will be global for all form, same style for all forms, but I think it is enought. Would be it too complicated to add this “CustomTitleFont” to SkinProvider? And specify so different font styles for each form individualy. This property should be accessible in object inspector, so we can set font style easily in design time. Where should be global object “CustomTitleFont” set? In main form OnCreate event? Or in DPR file?
I think that individual “CustomTitleFont” property is more comfortable.I will be grateful for any of these options. It depends on you, what is easier for you
eledhParticipantHi, yes I think that it would be great if I can set font style of form caption. Or at least make caption bold for every system. I test this in win7 and caption is not bold and in win XP it is bold. Please use bold style for caption everytime or give us option (property on skinprovider) to set own font and its style
eledhParticipantHi,
Both problems solved, thankseledhParticipantI would like also mention anything else. When form is showed up, text in title (caption) is normal text (not bold), but when the form lost focus, text is changed to bold. I suppose that it should be bold all time. I noticed this issue in Win7 and Vista, in XP it seems OK.
Thanks,
BReledhParticipantHi,
I am sorry for delay.
I found that problem is with some skins only, for example with Topaz and Cold.
Here is sample app, TImage placed on form, and TsWebLabel over image.

[attachment=3544:TsWebLab…6problem.zip]eledhParticipantHi,
this TsWebLabel is placed on TImage and TImage is on TsPanel on the form.
I can send example today later.eledhParticipantHi, I noticed similar cpu peak usage when animations are enabled. Try to disable them, e.g. on TsGauges.
eledhParticipantHi,
yes, it is similar situation.
But in my application, ExtendedBorders property is False, and in my case sometimes happens that borders and titlebar of window disappear permanently.
Not every enabling or disabling of Aero cause this problem.
Closing (by button) or minimizing (by clicking on window tab in taskbar) has no effect to borders, when the window is showed up again, borders still missing. There is no way how to move (without titlebar) with such window, so application must be restarted completely.
It is annoying problem, but it occurs rarely, so it is not critical <img src="style_emoticons//smile.gif” style=”vertical-align:middle” emoid=”:)” border=”0″ alt=”smile.gif” />Good luck, AlphaControls (especially Lite version) are great components.
Thank you.eledhParticipantHello,
I do not think that is exactly the same issue like in this topic.
I my case, forms looks normally, no artefacts or strange colors, just borders and titlebar disappear.
It is equivalent to situation, when property BorderStyle is set to bsNone.eledhParticipantHello,
version 6.22, problem is gone.
Thanks youAuthorPosts
