DevEx VCL Components & VCL Styles??

[Ian Branch 129]

Do the DevExpress VCL components play nicely with VCL Styles?

If not, can they be made to?

 

Regards & TIA,

No and no.

I'll second both previous comments. I'm helping my team upgrade a suite of old programs that used a mix of grids and controls; the new version is DevExpress Quantum grids to the mix. We wanted to support a "dark" mode and it took a lot of research to get everything to look decent together--or at least close. We had to pick both a VCL style and a DevEx skin that (mostly) work together. They're saved and applied in completely different ways.

Using the WXI skin it is very easy to emulate Windows light and dark modes with just a few lines of code.
