official documentation can be found here (link) but i suggest that you also take a look at the existing skins and their xml files

i am trying to find info / tutorial on skinning.

it seems that the skinning.txt located on sourceforge is not finished or has been cut before the end

i am particualrily trying to understand how the following items work :

- spincontrol  used to show a spin (up/down) control
- listcontrol   used to show a list control
- thumnailpanel used to show a panel of thumbnails

thanks for your help

i think your best bet may be to take a look at existing skins.

that is the best way to learn imo.
