Customizing WaterReflection

To control look-and-feel, WaterReflection allows you to specify a large range of options as attributes in the XML configuration. It is best to look at the examples to see how these work. The following tables show the possible tags that you can use in WaterReflection, together with their attribute settings:

Styles

It is often useful to apply the same attributes to a whole section of XML. In order to do so, you can include such attributes in the special <style> </style> tag. All of the attributes in the style tag are applied to the elements it contains.

External configuration files

You can also include external configuration files in your XML. To do this, use a tag like this: <include file="filename"/>
