VisualStyler.Net is the premium skinning component for developers who wish to skin their winforms applications using any Microsoft Visual style. You are now no longer restricted to using the standard 'Lunar' visual styles only available on Windows XP, since VisualStyler can render visual styles on all platforms from Windows 2000 to Windows Vista. With currently over 2000 visual styles to choose from, your applications can now really stand out from the crowd.

Visual Studio Integration

VisualStyler comes supplied with a Visual Studio add-in which completely extends the Visual Studio design-time IDE providing developers with a rich WYSIWYG design-time skinning experience. The component also uses the latest smart-tag designers, making the component very easy to setup and configure. You can add skin support to any new or existing winforms applications without having to modify or write a single line of code.

Advanced Skinning Technology

Using SkinSoft's existing, high performance skin engine, your application GUI is rendered fast, accurate and smoothly with no visible paint artefacts or flickering, and because our skin engine is designed entirely in C# it fully supports windows forms control transparency, background images, fonts and color customizations.

The entire set of windows forms controls are skinned :- forms, tool windows, controls, common dialogs, scrollbars, message boxes, win32 controls and even internal winforms forms. The component has a flexible API allowing you to customize the behaviour and to target just forms, forms and controls or even excluding a form or control.
