Thanks Joey, that particular project was no fun at all. At first I thought I could use some of the graphics from an existing template library and roll right through the process, but when I discovered that CF supports both orientations within a single project, I went back to the drawing board and came up with a whole new way to solve the problem of buttons changing positions on subpages depending on which way you were holding the device.

I created a brand new button library and about 60 new activity icons for this project. With CommandFusion, you create a library item for every button and graphic, so there was a lot of typing involved. The cool part is the programmer has everything they need from a simple drop down menu and you can change themes on the fly.

If you replace an item in the library, it will automatically update the entire project that uses that graphic, which is kind of nice. You can re-theme an entire panel just by replacing graphics in the external folders.
