Stano 143 Posted September 19, 2023 Off-topic question. What is the basic difference between those components and TMS? So briefly. Thank you. Share this post Link to post

We do not want to compare the packages, because you can use all together especially that both have support of VCL Styles. But with StyleControls VCL you can create modern UI CORE (UWP / Fluent design + standard forms) easily. The specifics of the controls are focused on new Windows systems features, all modern UI trends and new VCL capabilities (support for High-DPI and VCL styles is very well). You can try our demos with all our design ideas and screenshots... https://www.almdev.com/prods/stylecontrols/stylecontrols_scs.html https://www.almdev.com/prods/stylecontrols/stylecontrols_dsscs.html https://www.almdev.com/prods/stylecontrols/stylecontrols_fuiscs.html Edited September 20, 2023 by Almediadev Support Share this post Link to post
Stano 143 Posted September 20, 2023 Thank you for your reply. It answered what I wanted to know. I personally am not a fan of different styles and effects. Especially the effects are very taxing on the eyes. But then again, all this "nonsense" sells products And I'm not a programmer either. It was just a curiosity. Share this post Link to post
Attila Kovacs 631 Posted September 20, 2023 It's a huge misconception that with these components, you can only create fancy forms. These components work perfectly fine without any styling, offering a lot of added value with great support and being completely affordable. etc... Share this post Link to post

It was just a curiosity. All components work fine and without styles. See previous post from Attila Kovacs. But there are some new UI trends for desktop applications (not only Form + MainMenu + ToolBar), especailly for multi-media apps. Time is changed and we need to be flexible and we need to be on the one way with Windows system. See our video also about new UI and styles...
