Attributes

Exceptions

The skin specified in the SkinID property does not exist in the theme.

Remarks

Skins available to a control are contained in one or more skin files in a theme directory. The SkinID property specifies which of these skins to apply to the control. A skin is specific to a particular control; you cannot share skin settings between controls of different types.

If you do not set the SkinID property, a control uses the default skin if one is defined. For example, if a skin without an ID is defined for an Image control, then that skin applies to all Image controls that do not explicitly reference a skin by ID and that are not set to disable theming. If a skin with an ID is defined for an Image control, then that skin applies only to Image controls whose SkinID is set to that ID.

If the skin files in a theme directory do not contain a skin with the specified SkinID, an ArgumentException exception is thrown at run time.
