Can the app styler style other controls than the Infrag controls, i.e. the standard controls that come with Visual Studios 2008?

Hi Travis,
Yes, AppStyling supports most of the inbox controls. But in order for it to work, you have to place an InboxControlStyler component on the form(s).
Mike -
Is there some special way to style a toolstrip (inbox control)? I wanted to use a resource style (black gradient glass style) from one of the sample App style to style the toolstrip; however, I couldn't figure out how to apply that resource to the toolstrip even when I added the InboxControlStyler component to the form, is it even possible to do this?
Thank you!
Hi,
No, I don't think any new DotNet Framework controls have been added to AppStylist since this old post. Of course, you could use the Infragistics controls to achieve all of that.
This email chain is very old. Have additional controls been added to the AppStylist since then? I am interested in the ToolStrip and it's various controls (button, combo box), the context menu strip, checked listbox, masked edit control, and tooltip.

AppStylist doesn't style any CLR2-specific controls. It was originally written for CLR1 and CLR2 and was never updated with the new contorls that were added in CLR2. This includes controls like the ToolStrip and DataGridView that were added in Visual Studio 2005.
You should Submit a feature request to Infragistics.
In the mean time, why not use UltraToolbars instead of the ToolStrip?
