I'm following http://guides.sproutcore.com/theming_app.html#styling-a-button to know about creating themes in SC. I did copy the red color images to the resources folder and copied the
$theme.button { /* their code */}
to resources/button.css, and reloaded my app, as they said theme should be working now. But it is not working as expected. In command prompt able to see some logging activities. Please point me how to apply a theme. I am not much sure of the ruby language.
Delete your 'tmp' directory and then restart sc-server

Recently I switched over from the legacy css integration to using the current method of css support via the CN1 Preferences dialog. Ever since then, I've had repeated problems accessing strings from the localization resource file.
A few important points:
I have two theme files, but even importing the strings as a csv file into the theme generated by css doesn't work
I've tried all possible combinations of theme initialization with the two theme files, including initializing just one of them, with no consistent success (occasionally it works, but then if I modify the css and the theme file gets regenerated it stops working again)
I created a brand new project and copied my code into it, imported the string files, and it worked - until I turned on css support. Then I was back to square one
When it fails to work, the method UIManager.getL10NResourceNames() returns an empty array
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
CSS controls the file and as a result you can no longer change the theme.res file by other means. You need to keep a separate localization.res file and load that strictly for the localization functionality of your application. You can use Resources.open("/localization.res") to load an arbitrary resource file.
After much poking around, I found the solution. It turns out my situation was the result of a few non-standard things I did. First of all, I had a theme.res file which I renamed using IntelliJ's Refactor >> Rename function, which renamed the hardcoded css theme name in the build.xml file to my new name. I needed to manually revert that string in order to prevent the css compile task from overwriting my theme file. The second thing I noticed is that sometimes (I'm not clear on what caused this) the theme file was not being refreshed in the /out directory when running the app locally. This would manifest itself, for instance, when I would add an image in the theme file, but when running the code it wouldn't be able to find it in the Resources hashtable. Every time this happens, I now know to just delete the contents of /out, thereby forcing the IDE to rebuild/recopy the theme file (I could probably just copy it manually to the /out directory, but I think deleting it is safest).
I am trying to create my own custom components in orbeon.
I have been following the steps from the documentation and it said to unzip the jar file 'orbeon-resources-private' I did that and done what I needed to do inside the folder. I then zip it back up into a jar file and copy back over to orbeon.
When I start orbeon back up all i get is a white screen. I check the console and see I am getting a GET 404 not found. What the hell.
Next I put the original jar back and it worked again. So now I unzipped the jar and just zipped it back up again. (Surely that will work). Nothing, still a white screen.
Why cant I put another jar bar the original to get it working.
(I have tried creating jar from command line, zipping it and changing file extension, just adding .jar to a folder, all dont work.)
Could really use some insight to this...
Thanks
Which documenation page are you referring to?
I don't know why you would want to modify the orbeon-resources-private.jar.
You can put your own components into WEB-INF/resources or you can configure another path as documented in Overriding or adding resources without changing Orbeon Forms.
I'm having all kinds of trouble getting CKEditor working in a Rails app.
It always makes a request for skin.js which doesn't even exist in the stock package.
Whether or not it displays the groups I specify seems completely up to chance. Some of them work (like Clipboard), others don't (Like Document).
All the icons are messed up. They display on the wrong buttons. Sometimes the same icon will show up on two separate buttons.
I have no idea what's going on. I didn't customize anything. I got the 4.4.0 download straight from the homepage. Standard package.
Any thoughts???
Thanks!
This problem usually occurs when it clashes with any other js script in the project. try downloading the code and run it in a separate project, if it works fine there , this means you have some other js in your code conflicting with the ckeditor script and usually this is the inline js which causes problem.
I am working on a SproutCore project. I am trying to get the site as is on the IPAD, but the CSS background images, onClick and redirect is not working on the IPAD.
Let me know any solution on this.
When developing on the iPad, I have found the following to be useful in my Buildfile:
mode :debug do
config :all, :combine_javascript => true
end
Most iOS devices tend to have difficulty loading a large number of Javascript files, and this will concatenate them all into one. This may or may not resolve your issues, but many issues manifest if you leave them as separate files.
Also, do you have any errors in the debugger that you could share? It might help us track down the issue.
For broken images/CSS after building, it's often a relative path issue.
You might want to check your CSS / image paths in your compiled CSS & index.html files.
After building the project, look inside your output directory and try the following:
Open index.html file in your browser, and see which CSS/image files are not loading correctly.
Find your index.html file and replace instances of "/static" with "static"
Find stylesheet-packed.css & stylesheet#2x-packed.css and replace instances of "/static" with "../../../static" (or whatever fixes the path in your case)
I have build.sh script to automate this and it works for me. Let me know if you want it.. Good luck!
I'm implementing charts using The Ziya Charts Gem. Unfortunately, the documentation isn't really helpful or I haven't had enough coffee to figure out theming. I know I can set a theme using
chart.add(:theme, 'whatever')
Problem: I haven't found any predefined themes, nor have I found a reference to the required format.
If you install the ZiYa plug-in into your Rails application there should be a themes directory where you said. Just copy one of the existing themes, change its name to whatever you want, and then modify it however you like.
Another options for nice Flash charts is Open Flash Chart. I moved from Ziya/SWF Charts to Open Flash Chart when working on Flash charts in a Rails app I was working on. There is also a Rails plug-in for Open Flash Chart. Besides the fact that it is easier to work with, Open Flash Chart is open source, so if you can hack Flash you can customize it.
As I understand it, the themes are used by initializing the theme directory in your ziya.rb file like so:
Ziya.initialize(:themes_dir => File.join( File.dirname(__FILE__), %w[.. .. public charts themes]) )
And you'll need to set up the proper directory, in this case public/charts/themes. It doesn't come with any in there to start with as I recall. Are you having problems past this?
To partly answer my own question, there are some themes in the website sources which can be checked out at
svn co svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/liquidrail/samples/charting
(then go to /public/charts/themes/)
