Oh. I didn't meant to say you wanted that. My point was that complete unity
among different toolkits programatically would cause that, not that you
wanted it. I think we can mantain a good level of unity by limiting ourselves
only to repetition of the same design elements.
Ok, my idea would be something like this. Split themes in two,
a "elements.edj" file and a "theme_ewl.edj", "theme_etk.edj", etc. file.
I think I covered all the necessary elements (I checked the "test" apps from
each toolkit) but feel free to extend it as you wish.
elements.edj would contain
======================
* Groups:
** "texture/base": to be drawn at the bottom (window background)
** "texture/inward": to be drawn inside the bottom (a list background)
** "texture/outward": to be drawn over the bottom (a toolbar's background)
** "texture/primary": for elements that must catch your attention (buttons)
** "texture/secondary": catches attention... not so much (text entries)
** "texture/tertiary": almost the background (tabs, list headers)
* Fonts:
** "common": for most text on the screen.
** "labels": for the text over buttons, progressbar, tooltips, etc.
** "menus": for the menus and submenus.
* Color classes:
** "over_base": for text drawn over the base texture
** "over_inward": you can imagine.
** "over_outward": this one too.
** "over_primary": ...
** "over_secondary": ...
** "over_tertiary": ...
a button in theme_w.edj would be like
===============================
group {
...
part {
name: "bg";
type: GROUP;
source: "texture/primary";
description {
//buttons height, blah blah
}
}
part {
name: "shadow";
type: IMAGE;
description {
//a black and white image using transparency to shadow
the button"
}
}
part {
name: "label";
type: TEXT;
description {
text.font: "over_primary";
text.size: gigantic!;
}
...
}
...
