Visual Theme Conversion

Set the visual theme to a fixed value

Some of the display color properties of controls attached to a form and some of the border styles (BorderStyle for buttons, etc.) are specified by default with the @color format name of the visual theme.

 

If for some reason you do not want to use the @color format names in the visual theme, in addition to manually replacing each property with an RGB value, you can also convert them all at once to a fixed value by following the steps below.

 

1.From Panel Editor, select the control you want to convert.

If you look at the properties after pasting, you will see that @color format name is set.

Converting to a Visual Theme
