Need guide for using AppStylist with VStudio 2k8 - from start to finish
posted

While I find the AppStylist utility very useful from a designer's standpoint, I am not clear as I'd like to be about how best to integrate it correctly with my VStudio projects. Yes I know how to use the Add-In, how to import the Style Sets into VStudio and how to apply to my controls but I need to know what files Infragistics is copying around when I import Style Sets, what the implications are for projects in source control, if there are easier, more straight-forward ways to skin a VStudio project etc. Mainly - I'd like a guide from Infragistics that explains the entire story of a Style Set - from creation/design, to project integration, to server deployment - so I know I'm following the best practices.

I'm hoping there's already a guide/video in existence to answer my questions - but I don't have the time to hunt for it through the forums/etc. Could someone please post a link to it - or if it doesn't exist, create something?

========================
BTW - here's my dream table of contents if I was authoring the guide myself:

1.) Creating new Style Set in AppStylist for VStudio project
     - The Dos and Don'ts

2.) How to export the new Style Set and integrate it with VStudio project

3.) How to keep Style Set files and folder neat in VStudio project
      - Ideally would be nice to shove CSS and IMAGES where *I* want, not where AppStylist wants

4.) Things to be aware of when working with an AppStylist skinned VStudio project in Source Control

========================

Thanks

- Chris
