Theme Properties of Controls
ThemeStyle Property
ThemeDrawStyle Property
Sometimes slightly different appearances may be required to get the most out of Visual LANSA themes.
The most obvious case is where group boxes and panels have been used as toolbars. Some themes have a dark control background which interferes with the display of icons (for example the 2007Graphite theme). In such cases use the ThemeDrawStyle to change the display of controls.

The theming of container controls,(for example a tab folder as in this picture, which take up a large portion of the screen can be enhanced by specifying ThemeStyle Image.
Only applicable to the 2007 themes.
