TTaskDialogs not working with Delphi Styles

Not sure if anyone from Embarcadero ever sees these posts, but it does seem like a pretty basic request to expect message dialogs to match the style of an app.

 

Even if anyone from Embarcadero will ever read this there is a low chance that they will do anything based on a forum post. They have an official channel for bug reports.

I believe they do among other styles.  (see images in the home page)

@Carlo Barazzetta Can you enlighten us on this?

Maybe I just could not figure out how to do that then!

I tried these out, but unless I'm missing something they don't seem to support Delphi's built in styles. They seem to use a whole separate approach to styling components (skia?) Is that right? 

They do use VCL styles and Almediadev also creates and sells VCL styles.

 

Although I like and use many controls in StyleControls, I am disappointed with the look and functionality of the dialogs, particularly the file open/save dialogs. I do not use their dialog components because the dialogs do not have functionality that I consider to be standard Windows dialog behavior.

My Styled Dialogs uses internally my StyledButtons that are full VCL Styles compatible. You can also use dialogs with animations using Skia4Delphi:
