Skin third-party controls
Directly supported controls
The third-party controls which are inherited from the .NET framework controls can be skinned automatically.
Others, we tested and may offer DLLs to support them to be skinned automatically.

For these controls, we offer two DLLs for each. E.g. IrisSkin_NetAdvantage53Win.dll, IrisSkin2_NetAdvantage53Win.dll for Infragistics NetAdvantage v5.3.
You can download them from our website. To use the DLL files, just copy them to the runtime directory, and set the Enable3rdControl property of the SkinEngine component to ‘true’. Please note, IrisSkin_XXXX.DLL is designed for IrisSkin.DLL(For VisualStudio.NET 2002/2003), IrisSkin2_XXXX.DLL is designed for IrisSkin2.DLL(For VisualStudio.NET 2005/2008).
