TSkLabel does not use theme colors for text

I'm working on a utility program for IT and one of the users really wants dark mode so I thought I would include that ability.

I'm using a TSkLabel for information display and when I switch to "Windows 11 Modern Dark" the text remains black. I immediately thought there must a setting for this but I couldn't find one.

Does anyone know what I'm missing here?

Solution

  • Skia VCL controls are not styles like other VCL controls. You will have to apply appropriate color on style change yourself.

      SkLabel1.TextSettings.FontColor := $FF000000 or TStyleManager.ActiveStyle.GetStyleFontColor(sfTextLabelNormal);
