skinMakeDirectory

skinMakeDirectory(skinName: String);

The skinMakeDirectory method of the Application class creates an empty directory structure into which the images are loaded (by calling the Application class skinLoad method).

The value specified in the skinName parameter is used as the root directory for this skin, as shown in the following code fragment.

app.skinMakeDirectory("DocSkins");

The skinMakeDirectory method invokes the common Browse for Folder dialog, which prompts you to select the root directory in which the specified skin directory structure is created as an immediate descendant of the directory selected in the Browse for Folder dialog.

You can embed category names within the directory name by appending the category name to the control name; for example, by calling app.skinMakeDirectory("DemoSkin_Flowery"); from a Workspace. The total length of the skin name and category name cannot exceed 20 characters.

The skin name must be unique across the JADE system so that it is the application skin name, optionally appended by the category name, and followed by sufficient acronyms to make it unique.
