DevExpress skins do not work

Question

Can anyone make the devExpress parameter for their controls not work?

If I changed the bone_name for the control to Office 2010 Black, for example, it does nothing.

Thank.

You need to register skins. Typically, when you launch an application, you use an extensive application shell.

See the article in the DevExpress online interface documentation .

Here is what I usually do:

DevExpress.UserSkins.BonusSkins.Register(); DevExpress.UserSkins.OfficeSkins.Register();

You will need to add links to DLE DevExpress Skin files. And after that you can just use the skin you need:

defaultLookAndFeel1.LookAndFeel.SetSkinStyle("Office 2010 Silver");

defaultLookAndFeel1 - , WinForm. . , Look and Feel.

Update: DevExpress . .

Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);

DevExpress.UserSkins.BonusSkins.Register();
DevExpress.Skins.SkinManager.EnableFormSkins();
DevExpress.Skins.SkinManager.EnableMdiFormSkins();
