Note what was said is also wrong on refering to RSG as "exposing the DOM of screen representation" - that is not the case, it does not apply to the screens from SDK1 (roScreen, roImageCanvas and ro... everything else except roSgScreen).

Start with Scene Graph XML Guide and Scene Graph XML Tutorial if you want to learn RSG - just consider yourself warned wrapping your head around it won't be easy.
