YiShow Skin v2.2

The characteristic of YiShow Skin

You can change the YiShow's GUI by replacing the Skin. Changeable interface includes:

  1. Button
  2. Title Bar
  3. Build-in application's icon

Please note that the skin has to be complained with:

  1. Only GUI's bitmap are changeable
  2. Position and size are fixed
  3. You can only use PalmOS v3.5's color palette

Making YiShow's Skin

Making a YiShow's Skin is similar to making a PRC file using you Palm development tools. We will show you how to make one with CodeWarrior. For reference please refer to the included YiShow's Skin Project that made for CodeWarrior for Palm OS v7.0.

YiShow's Skin is composed by many BitmapFamily and Bitmap. If you want to make your own skin, just simply replace those resources contain in the project and compile it again. Those changeable resource are shown in the following tables.

From YiShow Explorer v4.5 and above, 16-bit color's icon is supported. If you want to add support for hi-color in Skin, you only need to add hi-color Bitmap to that icon's BitmapFamily..

  1. Currently for easy editing, BitmapFamilyID is using the same ID as BitmapID. For example, tool bar is using 4150.
  2. When you open BitmapFamily, you should notice that each BitmapFamily has already registered a 8-bit 256-color's Bitmap.
  3. Under the 8bit Bitmap, you can create a 16-bit Bitmap. I suggest to use 8-bit BitmapID + 1. Take tool bar as an example, the ID for 16-bit Bitmap becomes 4151.
  4. Then by pressing the create button, a new 16bit Bitmap will be created.
  5. After that is to edit the newly created 16-bit Bitmap.
  6. You should not delete the 8-bit Bitmap even you have created the 16-bit Bitmap.

If you want to replace partial resource only, you can do it so by deleting all the reminding unchanged resource. YiShow will use the default resource when it cannot locate them in the skin.

Please note the following when you making the skin:

  1. The database name must be "YiShowSkin"
  2. The creator name must be "YiSu"
  3. The Type must be "skin"

**These properties are all set in the included project.
