I have used the code provided in this example How to implement a close button for a TTabsheet of a TPageControl to draw a close button to each tabsheet of a pagecontrol and I have replaced ThemeServices with Style Services inside the code and when applying styles the close button doesn`t show and react in no way. Could anyone point me to a different path o solving this issue. thank you! this is the code of the OnDrawTab event:
procedure TFormMain.PageControlCloseButtonDrawTab(Control: TCustomTabControl;
TabIndex: Integer; const Rect: TRect; Active: Boolean);
var
CloseBtnSize: Integer;
PageControl: TPageControl;
TabCaption: TPoint;
CloseBtnRect: TRect;
CloseBtnDrawState: Cardinal;
CloseBtnDrawDetails: TThemedElementDetails;
begin
PageControl := Control as TPageControl;
if InRange(TabIndex, 0, Length(FCloseButtonsRect) - 1) then
begin
CloseBtnSize := 14;
TabCaption.Y := Rect.Top + 3;
if Active then
begin
CloseBtnRect.Top := Rect.Top + 4;
CloseBtnRect.Right := Rect.Right - 5;
TabCaption.X := Rect.Left + 6;
end
else
begin
CloseBtnRect.Top := Rect.Top + 3;
CloseBtnRect.Right := Rect.Right - 5;
TabCaption.X := Rect.Left + 3;
end;
CloseBtnRect.Bottom := CloseBtnRect.Top + CloseBtnSize;
CloseBtnRect.Left := CloseBtnRect.Right - CloseBtnSize;
FCloseButtonsRect[TabIndex] := CloseBtnRect;
PageControl.Canvas.FillRect(Rect);
PageControl.Canvas.TextOut(TabCaption.X, TabCaption.Y, PageControl.Pages[TabIndex].Caption);
if not UseThemes then
begin
if (FCloseButtonMouseDownIndex = TabIndex) and FCloseButtonShowPushed then
CloseBtnDrawState := DFCS_CAPTIONCLOSE + DFCS_PUSHED
else
CloseBtnDrawState := DFCS_CAPTIONCLOSE;
Winapi.Windows.DrawFrameControl(PageControl.Canvas.Handle,
FCloseButtonsRect[TabIndex], DFC_CAPTION, CloseBtnDrawState);
end
else
begin
Dec(FCloseButtonsRect[TabIndex].Left);
if (FCloseButtonMouseDownIndex = TabIndex) and FCloseButtonShowPushed then
CloseBtnDrawDetails := StyleServices.GetElementDetails(twCloseButtonPushed)
else
CloseBtnDrawDetails := StyleServices.GetElementDetails(twCloseButtonNormal);
StyleServices.DrawElement(PageControl.Canvas.Handle, CloseBtnDrawDetails,
FCloseButtonsRect[TabIndex]);
end;
end;
end;
If you are using the vcl styles, you must write a vcl style hook to draw a close button in the tab controls, take a look to the Vcl.Styles.ColorTabs unit (introduced in these articles Creating colorful tabsheets with the VCL Styles, Added border to TTabColorControlStyleHook) to have an idea of what you need to write a style hook like this. Additional to the code to draw the button in the tabs you must handle the WM_MOUSEMOVE and WM_LBUTTONUP messages (in the style hook) to change the state of the button (normal, hot) and detect a click in the close button.
If you have problems implementing the style hook let me know to post a full solution here.
UPDATE
I just wrote this simple style hook to add suport for a close button in the tabsheets.

Register in this way
TStyleManager.Engine.RegisterStyleHook(TCustomTabControl, TTabControlStyleHookBtnClose);
TStyleManager.Engine.RegisterStyleHook(TTabControl, TTabControlStyleHookBtnClose);
And this is a demo
