Hi.

I was wondering if someone here knows the answer to my question.

Does anyone here knows is it possible to use alpha skins with inno.

And if yes, how?

I tried searching and searching but I was unable to find anything related to my question.

It seems that those skins are related to apps developed in Delphi.

Maybe someone familiar with Delphi knows how to convert style so it can work with inno or sth.

Thank You for your time.

I think it's possible, I've seen an Inno setup that used that component and styles came as standard, only problem is it's been a while and I don't really remember where I saw it. You could head over to krinkels and look for it there though.

Thank you altef, I already had the code lines I had to use, where I had the problem with "SkinManager" not being recognized, sth like that.

Your link "works"....thank you.

1st there was some message saying that I should update some alpha controls, sth like that but I accidentally closed it, so I will try to get it again.

Anyway, currently it doesn't apply skin to the whole setup, it is just what you can see on this pic:

May be just better use VCL Styles for Inno Setup https://github.com/RRUZ/vcl-styles-plugins

Google "inno setup with alphaskins support" you will find source code, also find source code of inno setup , follow instructions to compile it, then get latest version of alphaskins and install it, and then recompile ISalphaskins with already installed latest version, this probably will fix this bugs.

Well, I thought to see if I can use alpha skins since they have really, really nice skin editor.

I like only cobaltx style from vlc, I think it is cobaltx.

Currently I use Trinium style where I edited progress bar a little.

But as I said, I like skin editor.

@altef

Will check it out later.

Thanks
