Hello

The following code is taken from the RAP Example demo application

public void configure( Application application ) {
    Map<String, String> properties = new HashMap<String, String>();
    properties.put( WebClient.PAGE_TITLE, "RAP Examples" );
    properties.put( WebClient.BODY_HTML, readTextFromResource( "resources/body.html", "UTF-8" ) );
    properties.put( WebClient.HEAD_HTML, readTextFromResource( "resources/head.html", "UTF-8" ) );
    properties.put( WebClient.FAVICON, "icons/favicon.png" );
    application.setOperationMode( OperationMode.SWT_COMPATIBILITY );
    application.addEntryPoint( "/", MainUi.class, properties );
    application.addStyleSheet( RWT.DEFAULT_THEME_ID, "theme/theme.css" );
    application.addResource( "icons/favicon.png", createResourceLoader( "icons/favicon.png" ) );
    application.addResource( "icons/loading.gif", createResourceLoader( "icons/loading.gif" ) );
    registerClientScriptingResources( application );
  }

This generates the following background color and dynamic gif when home page is loading:
index.php/fa/28239/0/

Is there any way to change the gray like background color? I tried to set custom theme in EntryPoint.createShell(Display) like this

@Override
	protected Shell createShell(Display display) {
		Shell shell = super.createShell(display);
		shell.setData(RWT.CUSTOM_VARIANT, "application");
		return shell;
	}

That's not working. I tried to set the theme on the display object and it is not working either. What is the correct way to handle this? Thanks
