No, you only need to place a TSKINDATA component on your main form, and vclskin can automatically replace the appearance of all forms in your project.

Vclskin cannot automatically replace the appearance of the embedded form, you need to manually implement it. There is an example of a 'NestedForm' in the demo package demonstrate the appearance of the in-line form and framework at runtime.
3 How to skin dynamic controls?

Control: = TMYCONTROL.CREATE (Form1); Skindata1.UpdateskIntrol (Form1);

Vclskin supports a deactivated form. The example code is as follows:
Procedure TdockableForm.FormShow (Sender: TOBJECT); Beginif Mainform.skindata1.active dam.skindata1.skinform (Handle);

If you use the Delphi7 official version, you can install the presentation package vclskin2.zip. If you use the Delphi7 preview, you should install the demo package D7TRIAL.ZIP.

Set tskindata.skincontrols.xcfastreport = true to solve this problem.
9 Access color in the Skin file
You can access Skin color through tskindata.colors []. For example: The background color of the form is: Skindata.colors [csbuttonface].
TShemeColor = (csText, csTitleTextActive, csTitleTextNoActive, csButtonFace, csButtonText, csButtonHilight, csButtonlight, csButtonShadow, csButtonDkshadow, csSelectText, csSelectBg, csHilightText, csHilight, csMenuBar, csMenuBarText, csMenuText, csMenubg, csScrollbar, csTextDisable);
Tshemecolors = array [cstext..cstextdisable] of tcolor;
Skindata.colors: tshemecolors;
