Theming/Skinning -
WindowBuilder now produces resource files that contain all of your application resources. These resource files can be generated in source or binary format, and can contain all of the application resources or any sub-set thereof. You can "build in" multiple resource sets or install resources at compile time (i.e. skinning). It makes it very easy to do things like install a new skin on a cell phone/MP3 player (either at build time or even for a product in the field), or you can install a new "language pack" for a product that shipped in English only. These are just examples. The ResourceManager makes it all very easy to install either from resource tables that were compiled and linked in or from your filesystem.
New Look -
Standard widgets will have an updated look with rounded corners.
WindowBuilder -
PEG+ 2.x uses a common version of WindowBuilder. This new WindowBuilder incorporates the FontCapture and ImageConvert development tools that users of previous versions of PEG may remember, so they are no longer provided as separate tools. The new WindowBuilder produces "resource files" which have all fonts, images, strings, and colors used by the application. Resource files can be in binary or source form (for compiling with the application).
