XPElementStyle

Elements are individually drawable UI things like push buttons, etc. The style defines what kind of element you are drawing. Elements can be stretched in one or two dimensions (depending on the element). Some elements can be lit.

In X-Plane 6 some elements must be drawn over metal. Some are scalable and some are not. Any element can be drawn anywhere in X-Plane 7.
