So, I guess that you are looking for a good set of Delphi components to make your applications look professional, aren’t you?
You are in the right place!
Today, I am going to introduce you, in my opinion, the best skins components for Delphi ever made - AlphaControls.
There are two editions of this components: lite(freeware) and full(shareware).
Lite version is completely freeware - we can even use it in commercial applications!
You may ask - what’s the difference between this editions.
The answer is simply - components number. In the lite edition, there are only 13 components, in the full version there are over 70 components! If you buy full version, you will also have access to recent versions of AlphaControls.
Components
But let’s back to the lite edition.
There are following components:
- sSkinManager - it takes care of skinning whole application, here we can set skin name and path.

- sSkinProvider - it is responsible for skinning a single form, we can set hue and saturation.

- sBitBtn - it’s just a skinned button, but we can put a glyph on it.

- sButton - just a skinned Button, no additional features.

- sCheckBox - just a skinned CheckBox, no additional features.

- sComboBox - just a skinned ComboBox, no additional features.

- sEdit - just a skinned Edit, no additional features.

- sGauge - just a skinned Gauge, no additional features.

- sLabel - just a skinned Label, no additional features.

- sWebLabel - we can put link to our site in this control, it’s looks nice and have natural browser-like behavior.

- sListBox - just a skinned ListBox, no additional features.

- sPanel - just a skinned Panel, no additional features.

- sScrollBar - just a skinned ScrollBar, no additional features.
