Thank you, HeDiBo.
I do not feel so much like I am on an island now. It was just blind luck that I stumbled onto this.
I put a very short video on my YouTube channel showing the problem.
I built a simple exe (attached). Loaded it on another Windows 7 machine and a Windows 10 machine. Same result. Windows 10 was slightly different but it still disappeared when you set Blend On Moving to true and Extended Borders to false.
The compile date of your demo is 7/16/2018 5:59 PM. I downloaded it again and placed a second copy in another folder. Same date and time. And same behavior, it disappears.
I have Windows 7 Ultimate, Service Pack 1, 64-bit edition. I keep up to date with Windows updates. I have the latest version of Delphi. 10.2.3 Tokyo.
I wished I had saved the previous demos that I have downloaded but I regularly clean out my downloads folder.

I ran older version of my application (middle of June compile date) and set the skin manager to the settings I mentioned. There were no problems.
It is not a big deal. Having this back and forth helps me understand better. Thanks.

Thanks. It is a wonderful tool. Is it possible to do some blind initialization that is held in memory when you start your application?

Later this initializing is not required and it works faster next times.I'm thinking about an improvement of this behaviour, maybe this information will be searched in other thread before opening…

If skin selector has focus, I am still not able to cause the dropdown to open.
Any more suggestions.
Never mind about the previous statement.
On one application I am calling it from FormKeydown. On another application it is called from an action list. The one with the action list opens the skin selector when the skin selector has focus.
Small things.

Try this code:
Code:sSkinSelector1.Perform(WM_LBUTTONDOWN, 0, 0)Show and Hide methods are inherited from TControl and just shows/hides the entire control.
The code you suggested worked fine when skin selector does not have focus.
If skin selector has focus, I am still not able to cause the dropdown to open.
Any more suggestions.
Never knew about it. I would rather let the skin builder control the max/min settings. Less worry on my part. For anyone else interested:
sTrackBar3.Min := MainForm.sSkinManager1.CommonSkinData.BrightMin;
sTrackBar3.Max := MainForm.sSkinManager1.CommonSkinData.BrightMax;
You may need to add to the uses clause “sStyleSimply”.

This range may be defined in the ASkinEditor tool for each skin individually.
This is just a range where the skin looks better, you can ignore this range and set any value of brightness, it's possible.
Fixed. Thanks.
'Support' wrote:Thank you for the demo, the issue will be solved in the nearest release.
I am not sure what you did to the demo, but I like the improvement.

When it is anchored on the right side the images are aligned to the left followed by the text.
I thought with it anchored on the left side the images would be aligned to the right followed by the text.
At any rate.
Perfect. Thanks.
