Please migrate to the new supported development environment[1], it installs everything as it should, you should not set these variables manually. Regards, Alon Bar-Lev.

We also moved the styles needed to support this branding out of the application and into its own module. The styles can now be found in ovirt- engine/packaging/branding/ovirt.brand. In this directory you will find the following files: - branding.properties. This file controls the branding theme. - ovirt_messages.properties. A standard java resource bundle properties file containing the messages that can be changed. - A bunch of .css files that contain the classes that can be altered. I have created a wiki page with some information and pictures of what parts of the interface can be changed at this point in time. It is located here: http://www.ovirt.org/Feature/Branding There is also more information in README.branding that got introduced with this patch. Alexander ps. If your user interface looks messed up (missing borders and things of that nature) the engine cannot find the default branding. This means you are not using the make commands recently introduced. We highly recommend you use this to have a complete environment. If you are unwilling or unable to use that you can make a symlink in /etc/ovirt-engine/branding/00-ovirt.brand to ovirt- engine/packaging/branding/ovirt.brand If creating a symlink, make sure it matches the ENGINE_ETC property that's loaded. So, for symlink /etc/ovirt-engine/branding/00-ovirt.brand , the ENGINE_ETC should be pointing to /etc/ovirt-engine. I ran into issues, so thought I would share. thanks sahina ___ Engine-devel mailing list Engine-devel@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/engine-devel ___ Engine-devel mailing list Engine-devel@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/engine-devel
Re: [Engine-devel] Guest Reboot
Hi, from the implementation discussion it seems that the behavior of reboot will be in most cases equivalent to pressing the current buttons stop and then start, so maybe the reboot icon should reflect that. Maybe a combination of red square/green triangle?

I suggest as alternative something like the "run VM" icon (the triangle - that already exists in the engine and users know what it means), and with it the arrows from the "refresh" icon.
