Naming Conventions

Besides XML syntax, the following conventions are used in the skinning language:

• Elements are written with capital letters: <SKIN>, <PARAM_BUTTON> ...
• Attributes are written with lower-case letters: value, author, ...
• Attributes values are written with lower-case letters when possible: vertical, false...
• separator for composed attributes is '_': v_align, layout_type, ...

The name of widgets usually follow the following rules when possible:

• widgets using images use the IMAGE keyword
• widgets related to parameters include the PARAM keyword
