I have a couple of TAdvStickyPopMenus on my app. It would appear that they do not make use of all the VCL Style settings. With normal, light styles they look OK but if I change to a dark Style the text, radioboxes and checkboxes get changed to the dark colours but the background does not. This results in white text on a white background - not easy to read.
Is there some setting I have missed for the menus?
I also tried changing the VCL Style in your Menus demo but that seems to ignore the VCL styles completely.
Sorry, at this moment the menu component TAdvStickyPopupMenu does not support VCL styles.
That's a bit disappointing. Back to the drawing board for those menus!
Sadly, using VCL styles API in menus is far from trivial.
I found a way round the problem, attach the menu to a FantasyMenuStyler then
AdvMenuFantasyStyler1.Background.Color := StyleServices.GetStyleColor(scGenericBackground);
Probably not perfect but at least I can see the text now.
Sorry to have bothered you with this, I should have worked it out myself first. But maybe it will save someone else some time in the future!
