I think it has to be updated but it still mostly applies

Hi all, Does that mean that documentation regarding visual themes (http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Visual+Themes+-+How+to) doesn't apply anymore? Regards, Pierre 2009/1/23, Bruno Busco (JIRA) <[email protected]>:[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-2118?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12666470#action_12666470 ] Bruno Busco commented on OFBIZ-2118: ------------------------------------ Hi All, I am happy to see you liked the new theme. David, I think that having the themes folder with a few themes already installed OOTB is a great idea indeed. This will let everybody easily test some features that only have sense when more themes are installed (i.e. the theme selection and new one that will come like, may be, theme enabling/disabling etc.) The OOTB themes will be usefull as living templates to develop new themes that will be hosted in the Gallery. Thank you for enabling me to commit to themes folder it will help.Drop-down Applications Bar -------------------------- Key: OFBIZ-2118 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-2118 Project: OFBiz Issue Type: New Feature Components: ALL COMPONENTS Reporter: Bruno Busco Assignee: David E. Jones Fix For: SVN trunk Attachments: AppMenuDropDown.patch, AppMenuDropDown.patch, AppMenuDropDown.patch, screenshot1.jpg, screenshot2.jpg, screenshot3.jpg, screenshot4.jpg, screenshot5.jpg, VisualThemeMessage.patch, vt_bluelight.zip, vt_bluelight.zip Hi all, we have discussed several times about a new backoffice layout with drop-down menus to have less crowded screens. I am experimenting some solutions and I would like to show you what I came to in order to discuss about it. What you can see in the screenshots attached is based on an new visual-theme but also on several changes in the decorators. The idea is to have a breadcrumbs that is a drop-down menu also. The leftmost Item is always "Home" and when the user hover on it the applications menu is shown up. Then the user can select an application and the application name is shown in the second position of the breadcrumbs. If the user hovers on it the selected application menu is shown and the user can select an option that is shown in third position on breadcrumbs. The idea is to have the breadcrumbs to incorporate both the applications menu, the single application menu and the tab bars. At the right ent of the same line of the breadcrumbs (in the white background region) the actual screen name should be visible. I think that this way of navigating offers to the user a complete view of all applications as a whole. For the moment I only attach screenshots to this jira because I need to clean my code to make a presentable patch. I just want to hear if you think this is a model that we can go through. If the community agrres on this that I will spend more time to clean the code and submit a patch.-- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
