In this example i want to skin the TButton component.

This is my form:

After applying a VCL style i get:

But what i want is:

The Bitmap-Style-Designer included with the IDE didn't seem to allow specifying which controls to skin so maybe there is a "trick" to do this?

The VCL Styles are global to the application. So you can try disabling the VCL Styles for all the controls except for the button how is shown here (this method have some limitations), or even better you can draw the button yourself using the VCL Styles look and feel like so.

var
  LStyleServices : TCustomStyleServices;
begin
  LStyleServices:=TStyleManager.Style['AnyLoadedVclStyle'];
  //draw the button with using LStyleServices 

  ....       
end;
