Here's a quick step-by-step process to get the Motorola Q Form Factor in the Visual Studio Designer... I wrote this for another forum...

Make sure to have Visual Studio installed, Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone SDK, the Landscape emulator, and the Motorola Q Plugin.

First.. open up Visual Studio 2005.

Go to Tools -> Options...

You'll have a dialog that comes up...

Select the Device Tools -> Form Factors

Select Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone in the combo box

Click on Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone QVGA

Click Save As.

Save it as Motorola Q

Highlight Motorola Q ... hit Properties

The skin xml file should be here:

C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce500\Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone SDK\Deviceemulation\Motorola Q\Motorola_Q.xml

Uncheck enable rotation support

Horizontal and Vertical resolution should be at 131 (default)

Uncheck Show Skin....

Set
Screen Width -> 320
Screen Height -> 240
Color Depth -> 16

Check Show Skin.

Now when you bring up a form in the designer of Visual Studio, you can select Motorola Q!
