The product screenshots for EWB3 show a modern looking theme for buttons and controls, how do I get these for my App?

I ran out of time to do a complete set, but the application-specific control interface sets are in the \client\interfaces subdirectory under each example application.  You can just copy them from there, or change the search paths for your application project so that it picks them up:

under "Build".

Thanks Tim, I have copied the musiccollection to my projects folder and modified project options but the buttons show white until I hover over them and then they show the text - even after I move the mouse away from the control? This occurs both in the IDE and Edge

If this is an existing project, then you need to reset each control so that it re-initializes the UI properties that you've already set for the control to the defaults.  To do this, click on the control and then click on the last toolbar button on the designer toolbar at the top of the designer surface in the IDE.
