Re: UI improvement for tables in OFBiz

Hello, I agree with Deepak that we can define our own CSS classes based on the context and we can take the names from fieldtype*.xml. I think once this is done, we can proceed with the comparison for UI frameworks to be used and the CSS classes would remain the same. I have created a ticket for

Re: UI improvement for tables in OFBiz

Hi, I think instead of directly using bootstrap defined classes we can define it based on context. Like for as we display amount/numeric values as right aligned, and for this bootstrap has pull-right class. pull-right does not make sense its to generic, we can define new classes to meet ERP

Re: UI improvement for tables in OFBiz

Hi Mayank, It would seem more logical to me to decide about the naming convention for alignment classes after having decided which CSS framework we prefer to refer for tables. I see no hurry in that, do you have for another reason? If so then please start the detailed comparison of the 2 CSS

Re: UI improvement for tables in OFBiz

Hello Jacques, All, I think this would be a good idea to check which of the CSS styling in either Bootstrap or Foundation works best for OFBiz tables. Also coming to the original discussion of using specific classes for alignment of table data, Can we pick the naming convention from Bootstrap

Re: UI improvement for tables in OFBiz

In the other thread, folks were talking about Vaadin which would supersede this discussion, I believe. For this application I think Vaadin (in particular the Grid component) is an ideal fit, because it is a complete UI framework, vs Bootstrap which is just a nice client-side CSS/JS theme.

Re: UI improvement for tables in OFBiz

Hi Michael, All, Why not Foundation? It's true that Bootstrap, I guess due to its origin,  is more widely used, but Foundation has some arguments. https://www.google.fr/search?q=Bootstrap+vs+Foundation=UTF-8 Nnotably when it comes to tables that OFBiz uses a lot (please see Rajesh's and my

Re: UI improvement for tables in OFBiz

Hi Mayank, It's a good initiative. As some of the numeric data price, quantity is generally right-aligned. +1 on creating generic names of classes and moving ahead. I think the "align" attribute is used at some of the tables. As per HTML5, 'align' attribute is not supported, so code cleaning

Nitish, I think what Taher is suggesting, to use the naming conventions used in bootstrap instead of try to form dictionary of our own. I also agree with him, to use a standard practice for naming the classes. +1 Mayank for the idea. Rishi Solanki Sr Manager, Enterprise Software Development

Re: UI improvement for tables in OFBiz

Hello Taher, Thanks for your suggestion. Currently, we don't have bootstrap integration in OFBiz. So, if we are planning to give bootstrap support, then there would be no need to create our own CSS dictionary. Please let us know if you have any plans for the same. On Sun, Aug 27, 2017 at 12:53

Hello All, The tables used in OFBiz currently don`t have any standard for defining the alignment of data inside the tables. IMO, following are the points relevant to alignment of data in tables - 1. Numeric data (Right Aligned) 2. Non-Numeric (Left Aligned) 3. Table headers to be
