Hi guys,

been looking for a while but could find no answer so I thought I'd ask and get on with something else in my app.

I have a multi-form application and on the 'Main' form I have set two SkinManagers… the 1st SkinManager controls the way the application looks on all subsequent forms.

The 2nd SkinManager is set with a different skin name… what I want to do is, using the skin set in SkinManager2, copy a skinsection='FORM' into a tImage for use as a background. I then modify the tImage according to the application need. So when the SkinManager2 changes 'name', the tImage is updated with a skinSection='FORM'… I want to 'bitblt' the correct image, using SkinManager2, onto Image1.

Hope I've explained it well enough.

Tried

This Demo

but I could only get it to work if SkinManager1 and SkinManager2 were set to the same name!

I thought the new TsImage might have the answer… associate it with SkinManager2 then bitblt the TsImage into the TImage but I couldn't get that to work either… the blt operation from TsImage into the TImage just returned a blank white canvas even though I can 'see' the correct image on the TsImage…

Code:

Example bitblt(image1.Canvas.Handle,0,0,200,220,simage1.Canvas.Handle ,0,0,srccopy);

Really need some help on this one I'm stumped!

Hello Serge! 🙂

thanks ever so much for the demo… had the code included in my app in a very short time and it looks like it works perfectly… just what I needed 🙂
