There is no "Edit Custom Style" on context menu of a control in Delphi XE4

I am using delphi xe4 for developing ios apps, for styling controls I have read that there should be a "Edit Custom Style" when you right-click on a control, but there is no such option for me.

I found the answer,

There is no "Edit Custom Style" on FireMonkey Mobile form, but instead you can do it as below,

1.Drop a StyleBook on the form and assign it to the form

2.Double click on StyleBook, the editor will open

3.Load one of default styles

4.Without closing the editor, open the Structure view, all of the styles are here

5.Select style you want to change, and change it via Property window

6.You can save the new style for future use

This is a relic of XE2...I think that's how it was done back then (the help file in XE4 still says so, but it also says its category is "FMX|XE2"). Nowadays you have to go via the StyleBook property of the form.
