WEBDEV Concepts

142 Part 4: Advanced concepts Customizing the aspect of a site: skin elements The graphic aspect of a Web site is a major element. With WEBDEV, it is very easy to get a good looking site with a professional style at first try. To do so, several tools are available: the skins, the palettes and the preset page templates. Skin The skin of a site can be selected in the project description window ("Project" tab, "Project" group, "Description"). Skins can be configured in the "Skin" tab. Several skins are provided with WEBDEV. A skin includes: • a style sheet containing WEBDEV styles. • an image directory. • a default color palette. • a set of reports used as base to build the new project reports. The skins can be swapped at any time to modify the graphic aspect of a site. When changing skin, WEBDEV automatically adapts the visual aspect of the site controls.
