Setting the Theme of All Forms
Instead of individually setting each form to be theme-enabled using the forms' ThemeStyle=Themed property, you can set the default behavior of all Forms using the ThemedForms property of #Sys_Appln.

False |

True |
All forms in the application will use the theme specified by #Sys_Appln.Theme property. |
To do this place the following code in the application startup code:
#Sys_Appln.Theme := Shell
#Sys_Appln.ThemedForms := True
Note that enabling themes in all forms in a Visual LANSA application may not produce the appearance that you want.
For example, in the Microsoft Office applications, only the main form is generally theme-enabled whereas all other dialogs are not (the main application appears with a Blue theme but its child dialogs still appear Grey). For this reason you should individually evaluate forms to see if they should use a theme.
