Setting theme in RAP client-side widget [message #102962]

Hi all,

In RAP client-side widget I find many calls to method 'setAppearance'. I
know this method is supposed to set the theme of the widget which is
defined in AppearancesBase.js, but I'm unable to find where
'setAppearance' method is defined, not even in the widget's superclasses.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Setya

The method does not set the theme, but the appearance of a Widget (or a
part of it). The appearance contains all dynamically changeable,
style-relevant properties.

The function is defined on Widget, see

Thanks for your explanation.

I'm trying to fix Bug#232510 where Toolbar created via FormToolkit doesn't
have its background color set to the same colour the container where it
lives.

Upon inspecting AppearancesBase.js we need to give more condition about
how the Toolbar was created (via FormToolkit or not) and act accordingly.
Is it possible to obtain this information via the passed 'states'
parameter ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards,

Setya

I think the problem is that Toolbar#setBackground does not affect the
ToolItems in RWT. It shouldn't be necessary to change the appearance.
See my comment on the bug above.

I'm sorry, but the chances that we can fix it this week are low.

Best regards, Ralf
