How to edit a control within a FireMonkey style outside of the style designer?

Question

In this scenario, I created a default button on my FireMonkey HD application via RADStudio XE2. I then created a custom style for the button, named "Style1". This style is very much similar to the default button style, however, it has a TImage control next to the TText control.

In simple words, a button with an image next to the text.

Now, I'll apply an image to the TImage control for the button? Because if I apply an image to the TImage control VIA the style designer, the other controls who use the style will also get the same image.

you can do it at runtime. at first you have to name your TImage style object, for ex. 'btnimg' after that you can find it by name using FindStyleResource:

procedure LoadImage(btn : TButton; imgFileName : string);
var img : TImage;
begin
    img := btn.FindStyleResource('btnimg') as TImage;

    if not assigned(img) then exit;

    img.bitmap.LoadFromFile(imgFileName); 
end;
