Hi, I try to find out whether there is a reliable way to detect if an application is themed. Especially I need to know that from within a custom VCL component. From all the newsgroup posts I read I could only infer two things: IsAppThemed() indicates whether theming is enabled system wide. IsThemeActive() tells whether theming is disabled for a particular application via the program compatibility dialog. These functions do, however, not tell me whether there is a manifest! Since the manifest could be embedded in the applications resources it's not enough to simply check for the existence of a manifest file. So, how could I tell whether the target application my component (DLL) is running in is actually themed? thanks for any ideas! Nick
