Pretty slick, Razzak.

Changing the look of your theme on the fly, control freaks heaven!!!

I assume you could do this: 
PROPERTY CHANGE_THEME NewLuna LunaXP.msstyles
PROPERTY RBASE_FORM THEMENAME 'NewLuna' 
and the form would change its look instantly.

Very Best R:egards,
Dennis McGrath

Tip: R:BASE Themes Unleashed! (Managing External Themes)

Did you know that you can use your own custom-designed or
".msstyles" compatible themes with R:BASE eXtreme 9.0?

The Release Candidate update of R:BASE eXtreme 9.0 (32/64)
now includes support for external themes. External theme
files must have the ".msstyles" file extension. These themes
can be acquired from any online resource or from a custom
theme you created yourself.

After a theme is loaded into the R:BASE session, the theme
name will be listed in every available location where themes
are specified and will also appear in the Data Dictionary
list.

When using external themes, the theme file must be loaded
into R:BASE each time the session is launched. So, it can
be loaded within the environment set up in a startup file.

In order to load a theme into R:BASE, the PROPERTY command
must be used. The following PROPERTY command parameters are
to manage external themes in R:BASE eXtreme 9.0:

--Load Theme Example:
   PROPERTY LOAD_THEME 'NewLuna' LunaBlue.msstyles

After this command is issued, the theme "NewLuna" will be
available in all locations where a theme can be
specified.

--Release Theme Example:
   PROPERTY RELEASE_THEME NewLuna TRUE

After this command is issued, the theme "NewLuna" will be
released.

--Change Theme Example:
    PROPERTY CHANGE_THEME NewLuna LunaXP.msstyles

After this command is issued, the theme NewLuna will use the
styles defined in the LunaXP.msstyles file. This command
parameter is provided to alter the theme file, and to avoid
changing the specified "theme name" in every location within
the code.

Have fun integrating your own themes in R:BASE eXtreme 9.0!

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
