Description
With a couple of lines of Lua script, you are now able to apply beautiful third party skins to your AutoPlay Media Studio 7 projects! Make your applications look like Windows 7 even on former versions of the operating system, or apply an artistic skin to your application window and almost every control.
You should note that not every control is skinnable, because they might not be the standard controls of the operating system, and are drawn by the application instead. Other controls might be skinnable if they are replaced with custom versions, like the WinCheckBox (a new object plugin), included in this package.

For users of AutoPlay Media Studio 7 only

The installer offers the option to download a few example visual style files (*.msstyles). Of course if you use any third-party skin, you will have to clear with the author before distributing his/her work with your application. Or you can always build your own skin from scratch with a skin editor, which can also be found on the web. |
Support for skins is already built into AutoPlay Media Studio 8.0! See Project > Settings > Skin for details.
