Hi,

We'll soon migrate our application from PB17R3 to PB19R2.

I'm currently testing the themes feature because we'd like to implement it.

 

First thing I tried is having different color for buttons, this is just an exemple, I'll have the same problem with datawindows, userobjects and windows.

I have a base "OK" button

classname "sfw_bt_valider"

 

That button is present in a bunch of windows, and I want the button to look the same in all my windows

 

Now let's say I have a window named w_ng_calendar

Inherited from w_ng_main

That window contains the button under the name cb_ok

 

I tried different approches in the theme-xxx.jspn but the only one that works is

"w_ng_calendar.cb_ok": (which of course will change the button look only in that window)

"w_ng_calendar$commandbutton": will work too but it will apply to the other button and I don't want that.

"w_ng_main.cb_ok": doesn't work

"sfw_valider": doesn't work

"window.cb_ok": doesn't work

 

Is that just not possible at the moment or am I doing something wrong ?

 

The extra work to have to reference each and every object could be worth it but (and this is a BIG but) we do use a lot of openUserObject in our application meaning w_some_window.uo_some_control can reference different classes which we don't want styled the same way.

 

In the case this is not possible at the moment is it planned to have a "class based" support for themes ?

What would also be interresting would be to ba able to set theme for multiple classes at once like in CSS

class_1, class_2

 

Regards,

François
