Is there a way to avoid that border around the form when the skin is activated? See the attachment. There is just a main menu component on the form.
I see that DrawNonClientArea option is causing that border. But I don't want to set that to False.
Hello
It's possible if TsSkinManager.ExtendedBorders property is True
Otherwise, used a width of borders which specified in the current Windows system.
Well, I tried that also but it is not working with MetroUI skin (see attachment). Some other skins seem to work differently. That border does not look good with status bar… TsStatusBar is slightly better thou but still that border feels too wide. I choose another skin, no problem.
Width of ExtBorders is specified in skins.
The MetroUI skin is changed now, try it: http://www.alphaskins.com/sfiles/skins/metroui.asz
Ok, good to know. Yes, that is perfect now.
I think it is not a good idea to have that border width as a skin option. It is ok, when you only use one skin in your application. But if you let users to choose the skin then your application borders look different and it is quite a painful to fix those borders skin by skin in code.
I can try to add a property where the border width may be specified, but thin border will look strange in some skins, where a bold border is provided.
