Thank you for reporting this. Good news is that this was fixed about 3 years ago in the "maint" branch. Can you please 'git clone' (or download) that, and try again.

Hello.
If you like custom layout, maybe you could take a look at:
https://github.com/fredvs/uidesigner_ext/releases/tag/1.9.1

It has plenty of build-in layout.

[fredvs]

And to set a style for your app, after you choose one in the menu "Review", for example "Chrome Silver flat menu".

Copy the unit from uidesigner_ext source (source are here):
https://github.com/fredvs/uidesigner_ext/

/uidesigner_ext/src/fpg_style_round_silver_flat_horz.pas

into the main directory of your program (you may add all those you want to switch live for a other style for your app).

Then in the main unit of your program, add this (and other styles needed):

uses
...
fpg_stylemanager,  // this to enable styles
fpg_style_chrome_silver_flatmenu, // add more styles if you want
...

And in the MainProc, add this after fpgApplication.Initialize;

  if fpgStyleManager.SetStyle('Chrome silver flat menu') then
       fpgStyle := fpgStyleManager.Style;

You may also in your app change with other style using fpgStyleManager.SetStyle() depending of what style-units you added in the uses section.

The name of the style is defined at each end of fpg_style_xxx.pas in initialization section, for example fpg_style_round_silver_flat_horz.pas:

initialization
  fpgStyleManager.RegisterClass('Chrome silver flat menu', TExtStyle);

I just search how to change lazarus project's target application's skin, So I find fpGUI.

Note that fpGUI is completely independent of Lazarus.
You can use Lazarus to edit-compile the source but fpGUI needs its own form designer: uidesigner:
https://github.com/graemeg/fpGUI/tree/develop/uidesigner

(or possibly uidesigner_ext as presented previously)
