      Hey guys <img src="style_emoticons//biggrin.gif” style=”vertical-align:middle” emoid=”:D” border=”0″ alt=”biggrin.gif” />
      I got AlphaSkins installed, and they are in the toolbox. I drag a button onto a form, but it still looks like a normal button. How do I skin it? <img src="style_emoticons//smile.gif” style=”vertical-align:middle” emoid=”:)” border=”0″ alt=”smile.gif” />
      I know its a dumb question, but Im new to this, so bare with me. xD


      From the ahelp.chm file (“Getting started”) :
      “TsSkinManager is the main component required for AlphaSkins usage. It must be put on the master form of the application or any other that will not be destroyed during the run-time of the program.
      To activate the component it is necessary to define the SkinDirectory and SkinName properties and Active must be True.”

      EDIT: When I put an sButton onto my form, and debug/compile it, I get an error in the uses clause, where sButton is underlined. Same if I put a sSkinProvider, or whatever its called in it.. Think someone out there can help me out?


      From the ahelp.chm file (“Installation notes”) and from the Install.txt file :
      “…add, (if need) AlphaControls directory in Delphi (Tools->Environment Options->Library->Library Path).”

        Okay, I got it now. Thanks. <img src="style_emoticons//smile.gif” style=”vertical-align:middle” emoid=”:)” border=”0″ alt=”smile.gif” />

        Aah, I have some annoying frame when I compile it. Like, on the button, it IS skinned, but around the caption, there is some kind of a line..

        See? Whats wrong there? And it only does that when the form is active, like if I click on it, so it is in the front, you know what Im sayin?

          This is merely a focus.

            Is it something that can be removed? And it doesent do it on all skins.

              Use ShowFocus property.
              In some skins a showing of focus rectangle was forbidden.
