What is the best way to set the same Look-and-Feel style of the entire application with DXperience for Windows Forms?

Description:
How to set the entire application skin to "Money Twins"?

Answer:
The are two solutions to this task:

1. Drop the DefaultLookAndFeel component onto the main form and set its Skin property to the required value. Please note that it is not necessary to drop this component on every form but just only onto the main one.

2. Another approach is to specify the skin programmatically:

C#
[STAThread]  

static void Main() {  

    DevExpress.LookAndFeel.UserLookAndFeel.Default.SkinName = "Money Twins";  // <<< NEW LINE  



    Application.EnableVisualStyles();  

    Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);  

    Application.Run(new MainForm());  

}  





Public Class MainForm  



    Sub New()  

        DevExpress.LookAndFeel.UserLookAndFeel.Default.SkinName = "Money Twins" ' <<< NEW LINE  



        ' This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.  

        InitializeComponent()  



        ' Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call.  



    End Sub  

...  

By using the above code you'll be able to set the desired look-and-feel at runtime. As for design time, please use the DXDesignKeys tool from the DXperience installation.
