Change skin on button click

Question

Basically I wanted to plant a toggle button to increase and decrease the size of the text my spaces. So, I created a new skin with large font size.
How do I change the skin with a click of a single button?

Answer 1

use something like this:
<af:selectOneChoice label="Choose Skin:" value="#{sessionScope.skinFamily}" autoSubmit="true">
    <af:selectItem value="blafplus-rich" label="blafplus-rich"/>
    <af:selectItem value="blafplus-medium" label="blafplus-medium"/>
    <af:selectItem value="simple" label="simple"/>
</af:selectOneChoice>The value of each selectItem is an existing skin. If you add your own skins, you just add them as selectItem.
In trinidad-confix.xml you will also have to refer to the skin family:
<skin-family>#{sessionScope.skinFamily}</skin-family>This way the skin is dynamicly.
So if you don't want to use a selectOnChoice but a button than you will need to write an actionListener for that button. In that listener, you write the new value into the session variable.
