I've been trying to change the border colors of tdialogs.

I thought I was onto something with:

TInterfaceController(self).element.border.bottom.Color := clBlack;
etc.

but that doesn't seem to be right.  Has anyone got a working sample where you changed the border colors?
I've been through the source but don't even see where the default colors are set so I can class it.  Maybe I've been staring at the screen too long to see something obvious.

Thanks

You need to change the control interface in order to do so.  The borders are actually the background of the base UI element so that they can contain scrollbars, etc.
