Customizing the Look
Creating Custom Skins
This section describes the requirements for creating and loading a skin for use on the IP Office Phone
Manager and SoftConsole applications. However it does not attempt to teach how to use the required
Skin Development application.
The example shown is Phone Manager with a skin called 'Gradic' loaded.
To Create a Skin.
If you want to create a skin then skin development software is required. In the example the Business
Skin Form from Almediadev (SkinBuilder.exe) was used. Trial software and a number of samples are
available from www.almdev.com.
The SkinBuilder.exe application must be used to create or edit a skin. This application allows you to
manipulate your skin visually and has a built-in tester to test your skin definition.
