The VistaSkin component automatically skins windows forms applications in the style of the new Microsoft Windows Vista graphical user interface.

In order to skin your application you only need to drop this component onto the main form of your application at design-time.

Using the properties available on the VistaSkin component you can determine what colorScheme to use, what forms and controls should be skinned and whether to apply translucent shadows to your forms.

Use the ColorScheme property to determine the application color scheme skin. Use the TargetControls property to determine what forms or controls you wish to have the skin applied. The ShadowVisible and ShadowStyle affects the visibility and appearance of the form shadow.

This class cannot be inherited.
