Properties to which skins can be applied


The following table outlines the types of object properties to which skins can be applied. Skins are supported primarily for images, colors, and backgrounds; they are not used for positioning, visibility, or dimensions.

Note

Although the Skin Selector field property is listed for other fields types (such as character and other data fields), entering a value for this property does not affect those fields. Only the fields listed in the following table support skins.

Skin support for AR Templates

As an application administrator, you can define skins for any AR Template using the AR System Skins form.

For example, in the AR System Skins Properties dialog box, set the property name as background_color, the value as #ff0000, and enter the following in the required AR Template:


<div style="background-color:SKIN_PROPERTY(background_color, white); padding:5px;">
...
</div>


In this scenario, the default background color is white, but when the skin is applied, the background color will be #ff0000.

Note

The SKIN_PROPERTY( propertyName, defaultValue ) method is used to read the value of the skin property.


For instructions on how to define a skin, see Defining skins.

Skin support for DVM

You can define skins for a DVM using the AR System Skins form.

For example, in the AR System Skins Properties dialog box, set the property name as button_color, the value as #ff0000, and enter the following for an ARSkinsService that will use this DVM:


String skinValue = pc.getSkinService().getSkinProperty("button-color");

 

Note

The getSkinProperty ( propertyName ) method is used to read the value of the skin property.


For instructions on how to define a skin, see Defining skins.

Skin support for Web Header

Administrations can now define skins for system level components using the AR System Skins form.

For example, in the AR System Skins Properties dialog box, set the property name as background_color, the value as #ff0000, and enter the following in the Web Header:


<div style="background_color:SKIN_PROPERTY(background_color, white)">
...
</div>


In this scenario, the default background color is white, but when the skin is applied, the background color will be #ff0000.

Note

The SKIN_PROPERTY ( propertyName, defaultValue ) method is used to read the value of the skin property.


For instructions on how to define a skin, see Defining skins.
