Theme Designer 

Hi!

I'm using for the first time the Theme Designer... Really much more easy than touch each file manually...!!

Anyway, I really like to see a change in the way the theme customization is achieved... I'm a Infragistics AppStylist user and I think that the way Infragistics allow you to manipulate themes is even easier than the current VWG way...

They show to you a "live" screen, with all the controls that you can customize so, when you change a property, it shows you mediately...  (http://www.infragistics.com/dotnet/netadvantage/appstylist/winappstylist.aspx). Even you can use an existing theme as base for your own ...

Don't know if they patented it, but it can serve as an example to follow...

Just my 0,02...

Regards,

Daniel

Re: Theme Designer 

Hi Daniel,

Thank you for your comments.

Just one note though. In Visual WebGui, you can of course use an existing theme as base for your new one. To do that, you just make sure your new theme is derived from your base theme.

In VB.NET:

 

Public Class Theme1
    Inherits Gizmox.WebGUI.Forms.Themes.FaceBook
 
End Class

In C#:

 

    public class Theme2 : Gizmox.WebGUI.Forms.Themes.FaceBook
    {
    }

Hope this helps,

Palli

Re: Theme Designer 

Dear Daniel,

Thank you for the feedback!

Infragistics theme customization methodology is very inspirational indeed... please know that having a visual preview of the control at design time is part of the roadmap, it will only take some time to integrate within VWG.

Kind Regards,
Itzik Spitzen
