Application Theme States

While all the other properties in the Application group are used to set the normal look/feel for all applications, the DisplayMode is used to stylize unique application states.

This enables you to have a theme for displays that need the user's attention, or when an error occurs, or you want to convey the severity of a condition or problem. This group also includes the appearance of prompts with/without focus. The built-in application states are: Attention, Bold, Disabled, Error, Focus, Information Link, Success, or Warning.

The DisplayMode BackGround, BorderStyle, FontStyle, and ForeColor properties include an Override property. This flag determines whether these theme values will override the current prompt's setting.

  • If Override = True, the DisplayMode style is applied to the current prompt, even if the style has a (Default) value.
  • If Override = False, the DisplayMode style is NOT applied, and the style from Themes > Application are applied.
