vcl-dxskinsform-3af52654.md
The procedural type for standard control skinning events.
TdxSkinControlEvent = procedure(Sender: TObject; AControl: TWinControl; var UseSkin: Boolean) of object;
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Sender | TObject |
Provides access to the TdxSkinController component that raised the control skinning event.
Cast the Sender parameter value to the TdxSkinController class to access all public API members.
| | AControl | TWinControl |
The standard VCL control that is about to be skinned.
You can use the AControl parameter to identify the target control. To access all public AI members of the target control, you need to cast the parameter value to the corresponding TWinControl class descendant.
Tip
You can call the AControl.ClassType function to identify the actual class of the target control.
| | UseSkin | Boolean |
Specifies if the TdxSkinController component accessible through the Sender parameter applies the active skin to the target control (AControl).
Assign False to the UseSkin parameter to prevent the skin controller from applying the active skin to the currently processed standard control.
Note
The initial UseSkin parameter value equals the skin controller’s UseSkins property value.
|
The TdxSkinController component can apply skins to standard forms and a number of standard VCL controls in addition to DevExpress forms and controls.
A control skinning event occurs once per every instance of these controls at application startup or when the active skin changes. You can handle this event to prevent the TdxSkinController component from applying the active skin to one of these controls.
The TdxSkinController.OnSkinControl event references the TdxSkinControlEvent procedural type.
