PocketBuilder 2.0.1 adds the ability to display windows inside a device skin at design time in the Window painter. You can select an XML file containing a device skin definition on the General tab of the Options dialog box. (You open this dialog box from the Window painter’s Design>Options menu.) Clicking the browse button on the General tab displays a file selection dialog box. The file you select here is automatically entered in the Current Skin text box on the General tab of the Options dialog box.
Smartphone_Emulator_Skin.xml is an example of an XML file containing a device skin definition. This file is installed with the Smartphone 2003 SDK that you can obtain from the Microsoft Mobile and Embedded Application Developer Center.
After you select a skin and click the Show Skin button, all windows that you subsequently open in the Window painter are displayed in the selected skin, and the windows are repositioned inside the skin. You can remove the skin by clicking the Hide Skin button.
