Hi Skar,
yes, in your case, you can override the background color.
To override the color try these:
qx.Theme.define("custom.theme.Color",
{
extend : qx.theme.modern.Color,
colors :
{
"background-application" : "white"
}
});
To customize some widget it is important to know the appearance id from
the widget. The id could be found in the API viewer, in your case, open
the qx.ui.root.Application and show all inherited values. Open the
appearance property, you can see that the init value is "root". Now you
can have a look at the appearance defined in e.q. modern theme
(qx.theme.modern.Appearance). If you search after the "root" key, you
can see that the appearance sets the "backgroundColor" property with the
value "background-application". The appearance system allow to define
own color ids, which are defined in the e.q. modern theme
(qx.theme.modern.Color). To override this value, use my example code above.
I know that the appearance system is complex. The best way is to look at
these articles:
http://qooxdoo.org/documentation/0.8/ui_theming
http://qooxdoo.org/documentation/0.8/ui_appearance
http://qooxdoo.org/documentation/0.8/ui_custom_themes
These articles describe the general usage of the appearance system. But
to get a feeling how to use it, it is also useful to have a look at the
both standard themes (modern and classic).
I hope I could help to start with using appearance. If you have further
questions, please ask.
Cheers,
Chris
