@b1naryatr0phy: First, my intent was to tell you I didn't know at the time the comment was made it was wrong. Second, if you had enough rep you'd see that I wrote a long answer that was correct, and then deleted it because Robert's turned out to be better. Third, what does it matter to you that I made what turned out to be an erroneous comment 13 months ago, unless you're just looking to make noise, and we don't do that here. But fine; if it matters that much to you that you'll lose sleep over it, I'll delete it.

I'd suggest you spend your time trying to do more constructive things, though. – Oct 12 '12 at 19:16. VCL Styles and Firemonkey Styles are fundamentally different. Because of that I am not sure they should have used the same name. VCL Styles • Edited through: Tools Style Designer (External App) • Style Extension.VSF • Format is Binary • Can be set through: Project Options Application Appearance (Which just add TStyleManager.SetStyle('StyleName'); to your code • Runtime control of styles can occur through the TStyleManager class Firemonkey Styles • Editor is Internal to the IDE • Accessed through TStyleBook Resource Property Editor • Can also be accessed by Right click on any visual control and selecting either • Edit Custom Style. • Edit Default Style.

Note: These two menu choices are only available in desktop apps, not mobile apps. • Once in editor you can select the Load. Button to change the style for the selected TStylebook. If the entire application is using the same TStyleBook it will change the whole application. • Style Extension.style • Format is like a DFM • Runtime control of styles can occur on each control and through the TStyleBook On windows 7 all of the styles both VCL and Firemonkey by default are placed in the C: Users Public Documents RAD Studio 9.0 Styles directory One bullet point is a direct answer, but I felt like I had to give the long answer to help others.

The Premium Style Pack for Delphi XE7 Firemonkey is now available from Embarcadero (the VCL XE7 premium style pack is also available ). Znachki na paneli leksus rx330 price. The Firemonkey premium styles support Android, IOS, Windows, and OSX.

This new version of the Firemonkey style pack for XE7 contains four new premium styles which brings the total number of premium styles for Firemonkey to seven. The new styles are Coral Crystal, Coral Dark, Emerald Crystal, and Emerald Dark.

The other three styles which carry over from Delphi XE6 Firemonkey are Jet, Diamond, and Sterling. The Jet theme is really popular with one of my clients who use it in direct sun. The two Coral styles are an orange coral color and the two Emerald styles are an emerald green color (who would have though). While testing out the Coral and the Emerald styles I noticed that the two Crystal versions are for use on a dark background. So if you use either of those styles you will need to set the background on your form (or parent component) to something other than white.

The Crystal versions have a lot of white controls in the style and white on white does not show up obviously. These styles should also work great out in the direct sun with a black background because of the high contrast that they offer. These new Delphi XE7 Firemonkey styles are a bit different from previous styles because they take advantage of the new FireUI multidevice design system. There is a readme file with the styles which explains how to use them in FireUI and I’ve included it below.

This Readme outlines the steps to add custom styles to your multi-device application with Delphi, C++Builder and RAD Studio XE7. With the Master view selected, add a TStyleBook component to your form 2. On the Master view, select a Master style from the toolbar drop-down menu and then load the associated premium style from the style pack.

For example, if you selected ‘Android’ as the Master style, load and assign the AndroidCoralCrystal.style file to your StyleBook on the Master view. When working with custom styles, each view must have a style, including the Master view. Switch to each of your created views, select the TStyleBook component on that view and load the custom style related to that platform (Windows style for 'Windows Desktop' view, Android style for 'Android.' View, Mac style for 'OS X Desktop' view, iOS style for 'iPad' and for 'iPhone' views). Note: If you have different views for iPad and iPhone, you need to load the same iOS style for each view. If your application consists of multiple forms, you can set TStyleBook.UseStyleManager = True in each view in order to use the same custom styles for all other forms at runtime. If TStyleBook.UseStyleManager = True is set, then custom styles fully override system styles in all other forms (Form2, Form3etc.) that are part of your application for that particular platform.
