Hi,
the answer to this question is both simple and complicated:
The simple answer: The method name is wrong. setScreenTemplate()
_should_ have been called setPageTemplate().
The complicated answer:
When you call setScreenTemplate("foo,bar,Baz.vm"), you instruct
Turbine to use the foo,bar,Baz.vm page as the next output page. This
page consists of the Layout, the Screen and optional Navigation. The
matching templates for this are found using the Mappers from the
Template Service.
Normally, if you request a new Page, Turbine will find a Screen to
match it which is 99% of the time the same name as the Page and thus
found in /templates/screens/foo/bar/Baz.vm and a Layout. If you didn't
do anything special, Turbine will end up with /templates/layouts/Default.vm
>From these templates, Turbine will build the page and send it to the
Browser.
Regards
Henning

"Fighting for one's political stand is an honorable action, but re-
fusing to acknowledge that there might be weaknesses in one's
position - in order to identify them so that they can be remedied -
is a large enough problem with the Open Source movement that it
deserves to be on this list of the top five problems."
