Skins
How to customize the grid control's skin at design time?
The way of creating a new skin for the grid control is pretty simple and straightforward. Just modify appearance-related properties of the grid control and then save the resulted skin to an XML file by clicking Save skin... at the bottom of the Properties pane. How to use a custom or a built built-in skin?
Click Load skin... at the bottom of the Properties pane. The Load Skin dialog opens. Select a built-in skin or browse a custom skin and click Apply.
Where the data of the currently loaded skin are stored?
When you load a skin or just modify some of appearance-related properties, the modified properties are serialized to the form designer generated code. The next time you run your application or open the form in Windows Forms Designer, you get the grid appearance restored from the serialized code.
