Oh I see now. Sorry.
To add a little bit more information, that part of code is different between TsButton and TsBitBtn which is weird.
The focus rectangle is displayed in the TsBitBtn.

Delphi programmer since 2001TsSkinManager.ButtonsOptions.ShowFocusRect is set to what?

Delphi programmer since 2001Yes, I did mean gsCard (always use a prefix) 😉

Delphi programmer since 2001What do you think about “Card” style. It is quite used in the web domain and it loosely look similar.

Delphi programmer since 2001Is it just the name you don't like?
Is the enum property ok?

Delphi programmer since 2001The problem I see with NewStyleCaption is what will be the name of the style after NewStyle? NewNewStyle?
Maybe TsSkinManager.Options.GroupBoxCaptionStyle = (gsStandard, gsFullWidth)
What do you think?

Are you thinking of making a global setting that would change all groupboxes to the new style?
If so, I think it would be nice. If not, then I understand what you mean.
'Support' wrote:Do you mean an aligning of caption content?
I only suggested that option in case you preferred reusing an existing property.

Delphi programmer since 2001Ok.
For the property name, it could be something like FullWidthCaption.
Or I noticed the property CaptionLayout. It could be extended with values like clFullWidthLeft, clFullWidthCenter, clFullWidthRight if you prefer.

Delphi programmer since 2001Could it be possible make a setting in the skin to use wide caption on groupboxes

Delphi programmer since 2001I don't know if you hook into the theme manager of windows, but if so, there is an element for that item.
It is the the Part MENU_POPUPSUBMENU.
Hope it helps.

Delphi programmer since 2001I'm looking for ways to make GroupBox look more modern.
I think my second suggestion could make a great addition to AlphaSkins.

Delphi programmer since 2001Is it possible to make a groupbox like that?

Delphi programmer since 2001I don't know if “Support” was confused between the look of the glyph when the button is Enabled = False and the Grayed property of the BitBtn, but I was. So I though I could add my input.
I too find it weird that the discoloration of an icon that has no color changes of color.
It is like if the icon was blended with the button color.

Delphi programmer since 2001It's the anti-virus (Windows Defender) that prevent execution.
From what i have researched, it seems like the anti-virus thinks it's a ransomware.
I hope it's a false positive.

Delphi programmer since 2001I've tried in a VM with Windows 10 too and it works there. weird.
You can stop investigate since it's just a sample project.

Delphi programmer since 2001From what I tried, it seemed to output better result with DrawString from GDI+.
GDI+ does not use the same algorithm than GDI. Another weird thing from Microsoft.
More over, there is also DirectWrite / Direct2D, but those function use the GPU. I think it would be a little bit overkill.
