Styles

Use styles to centralize properties related to the appearance of user interface elements.

Style properties can define appearance by defining font properties, foreground colors, and background colors. Some style properties are specific to a given class of widgets (like the first day of week in a DATEEDIT).

Styles can be defined directly in the form or in a presentation style file (a resource file with a .4st extension). The presentation style file must be distributed with other runtime files.

For more detail about Genero presentation style files and their use, see Presentation styles in the Genero Business Development Language User Guide.
