  1. Fellow Delphi Developers!

    We updated our ribbon skins collection for BusinessSkinForm VCL.

     

    http://www.almdev.com

     

    Now it includes skins for new office ribbon UI, which MS provided in latest updates for Office.

    See Office2019_* skins in collection.

     

    BusinessSkinForm VCL library helps you to create applications with skins support for forms, menus, hints, many standard and DB controls. This library includes Office 2010 / 2013 / 2016 / 2019 Ribbon UI control, Ribbon UI Application Menu and skins. You can create your skins with special editor. Use the latest generation of Ribbon UI and you'll be on the wave of the latest trends! 
    Package can be used since Delphi 5 version, has a cool performance and support of OS since Win 98 version!

  2. StyleControls VCL is a powerful package of components, which uses Classic drawing, system Themes, GDI+ and VCL Styles.

    This package contains the unique solutions to extend standard VCL controls and also has many unique, advanced controls to create Windows 10 Modern UI Applications (UWP design).

    UWP-like form can be used with VCL Styles or System Themes, because controls have flexible solutions for adjusting. 

    Note, that all windows has a native DWM system shadow (and with VCL Styles too).

    Also with this package you can really improve applying and using of VCL Styles in your application.

    You can see out demos with latest VCL Styles "Sky Blue" and "Bunker Gray" from DelphiStyles.com...

  4. StyleControls VCL v. 4.25 just released!

    http://www.almdev.com

    New key feature is custom wallpaper support in caption of the styled form.
    Of course, this solution is scalable!

    We think that right way is using existing styles, but with adding of some holiday wallpapers to mark some event. Nice idea is showing wallpaper automatically by checking dates in application code.

    Also we can say that StyleControls VCL is a necessary library if you are working with VCL styles. Much work has been done specifically for the RAD Studio Rio to support the PerMonitor V2 manifest also. Library improves behavior and scaling of the forms, menus, common dialogs, hints and many more!
     
    Special Thanks to DelphiStyles for VCL Styles!

    * Excellent support of system Themes and VCL Styles

    * All controls have support of High-DPI systems with any DPI (no limitations and with VCL Styles)
    * Complex solution to scale images in controls on High-DPI systems (icons, backgrounds and many more)
    * A lot of advanced controls to create really modern application
    * A lot of controls has multi-theme (style) adjustments (for example, one button can looks and works as push button, tool button, spin button and many more)
    * Additional collection of controls, which use GDI+ (buttons with a lot of shapes type and vector glyphs, edits, memos with transparency, listboxes, comboboxes, meters, sliders, switches and many more)

    Do you have plans for incorporating the "real" thing as this would be possible with "XAML Islands" [1] [2] or will you stick with mimicking?

     

    [1] https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/uwp/xaml-platform/xaml-host-controls#uwp-xaml-hosting-api

    [2] https://github.com/Microsoft/Windows-appsample-Xaml-Hosting

     

    We'll try to implement some things from Fluent API in the future, but it's not easy with VCL core. 

    At this moment goal is creating modern VCL applications.

    Solution is flexible, works on High-DPI systems with VCL Styles or with custom adjustment. 

    With StyleControls you can create nice UI core and use any other third-party VCL controls.


  8. Fellow Delphi Developers!

     

    StyleControls VCL 4.18 just released!

     

    http://www.almdev.com

     

    In this version we continue to improve our solution to create UWP-like applications.
    Also we updated UWP MultiView demo template with VCL Styles and with custom adjustment (now you can see styled second UWP form and styled UWP form for messages).
    These demos show that you can create styled application, in which all forms will have system DWM shadow, with custom design or with VCL Styles!
