Custom Look an Feel Queries

Dear All
I have created a Custom Look and Feel where i had to change the Colors and Font of the Application as per the Clients requirement. I have acheived almost all the requirements what they are looking for but there are Few things which are troubling me. It would be a real great help if some oe can help me in this.
1. The Font of the Login Page is showing different than all the other pages and i am not able to identify which Style to touch for it.
2. The Global Links in the Footer Region are not visible and also there is no space comming up between the Copy right and Privacy statment.
3. In iRecruitment Home Page the tabs Home / Vacancies / Candidates are moved to right hand side where as they have to be in the Left hand side according to Swan Look and Feel.
Can any one suggest me on this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Srujana

Thanks a lot! One more question though, where can I find the source code for the ComponentUIs and BorderUIResources used by the Metal look and feel? It would be easier if I could see those and just copy-and-paste code and change it in relevant places when I need to partly change a method.

  • Making custom non-standard components aware of custom look and feels.

    Hello all.
    Maybe the subject of this post could also be the opposite: "Making custom look and feels aware of non-standard custom components". I'm not sure.
    If I code a new custom component (extending JComponent, or extending the UI delegate of a standard component) and pretend it to be laf aware then I must create the corresponding UI delegate for each laf, like it happens to be with standard swing components. But I'm not sure it is feasible to create the UI delegates for all unknown existing custom lafs.
    On the other side, if I create a custom laf then I will also create a custom UI delegate for each standard component, but I can not create UI delegate for all unknown existing custom components.
    The point here is that standard components and standard lafs are universally known, while custom components (or custom ui delegates) and custom lafs are not.
    So the question is: How does a swing developer deal with the case of a new custom component that will be used in an unknown custom laf?
    For instance:
    1. Custom text UI delegate for dealing with styled documents in JTextField. See {thread:id=2284487}.
    2. JTabbedPane with custom UI delegate that paints no tab if the component only contains one tab.
    In both cases I need a UI delegate for each known laf, but what happens if the application is using a laf that certainly will not be aware of this custom functionally?
    Thank you!

I suggest if you want to make your custom component look & feel aware, you design the way it displays around the l & f of other components that are part of j2se and have l&f implementations.

  • Customizing Look and Feel -- examples

    Greetings
    I recently started looking into how I could customize a Skin that was more suited for the particular users of Oracle, one to replace the standard blue Swan.
    The first steps were well document and I managed to edit the general look and feel. However, a practical example of how to change a particular component would do a lot to help me understand and implement other less general changes.
    I Wanted to change the color of the text for SNAV.Menu and SNAV.Fav within GlobalHeader
    I was able to change this in file "OAFSlideoutMenu.css" which is under $OA_HTML/cabo/styles ... but then it changes for all Skins, the default swan as well.
    Can anyone provide an example of how to change this by using my "[custom]-desktop.xss" file ?
    I appreciate the assistance!

    Hi,
    I assume you are talking about the OID in iAS 9.0.2 and on this release it's not possible.
    It should be possible in 10G, but I'm not sure.
    We gave up and has developed our own GUI's for the OID application.

  • Customizing Look and Feel

    Is there a way to customize the "look and feel" of the OID webtool?
    Also, is there any way to change what is displayed as a result of performing a search? Specifically, I'd like to extend the searchable fields to include businessCategory.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Custom Look and Feel Not showing up

    I've created a new look and feel per the edocs and it's shaping up nicely but when I deploy it to the portal it's great as the default but when I go in to change the LNF as a user It's not an option... Do I need to add it to some random xml file or something for it to show... also is there any documentation with greater detail for look and feel development out there?
    Thanks in advance
    Whitt

    I don't know what the plan is for getting old Dev2Dev sample code on OTN (Oracle Technology Network).
    I ran into the same problem yesterday. I needed a quick login portlet for a portal I was fiddling with.
    I plucked the login.portlet from the 10.2 installation at <home>/wlserver_10.0/samples/portal/portalApp/contentPresenterSampleWeb/avitek/portlets/login
    This sample is an example of using a backing file to handle the logic. The backing file for this portlet is in <home>/wlserver_10.0/samples/portal/portalApp/contentPresenterSampleWeb/WEB-INF/src/examples/visitortools

  • Customizing look and feel web interface

    Hi all,
    We are customizing the theme "web interface", but don't appears, when we look for it in "Theme Root". Only appears the themes created by SAP.
    the steps that we followed are:
    - Copy the theme, with the program BPS_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS
    - import the theme in my folder into the node /sap/public/bc/ur/design2002/themes/myfolder
    - copy the CSS
    - modify and import the fiel .CSS in my folder into the node /sap/bw/mime/BEx/StyleSheets/mycss.css
    - Assign the theme with the CSS in table UPWB_THEMES_MAP.
    This is all and doesn't work.

    Thanks Andrea,
    He is very useful.
    Do you have additional information on the components of the CSS?
    For example:
    .sapbexaggdata
    .sapbexaggdata:visited
    .sapbexcalskipmonth
    What represent?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,
    I am trying to change the font colors in irec through CLAF responsiblity. But a strange thing is happening. Though the color is reflecting, the gif images are missing (logout, personalize etc) and the link text below it are appearing like breadcrumbs. Also , the tabs are completely removed and the tab labels are appearing like breadcrumbs. My CLAF is based on base-desktop.
    I also tried to create a new CLAF without any change in colors and saved it and attached to the profile and bounced the apache. But the gif and tabs are missing.
    Could someone tell me why is this happening. It is very urgent.
    Regards

    Hi:
    The DBA's did the following as I have mentioned below:
    Clear the image cache - /OA_HTML/cabo/images/cache
    Clear the cache - /OA_HTML/cabo/styles/cache
    Bounce the apache.
    Restart the server - X.11 display server

  • GUI screwed up sometimes with Custom Look & Feel

    Hello,
    i've got a few problems with my JApplet. Im using a custom Look and Feel (Kunststoff, http://www.incors.org/index.php3 very nice) - my problem is that sometimes (often) my gui is screwed up - some parts like a JPane are not rendered in the custom look & feel, they are still default, but the buttons are. Or my whole dialog looks like a little puzzle - small pieces are cut out.
    I have no idea how to avoid these bugs, im not certain that this is because of the custom look and feel because i seem to have the same problems with the metal look and feel from java.
    I tryed to put a repaint() in my initiliaze of my dialog classes at the very end, but no success either...
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I have no idea how to avoid these bugs, im not certain that this is because of the custom look and feel because i seem to have the same problems with the metal look and feel from java.
    I tryed to put a repaint() in my initiliaze of my dialog classes at the very end, but no success either...
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Give me Guidence on the Look and Feel

    Everything is working fine.but the problem is under Footer, global links are not visible and also no space between the copyright and Privacy statement. how i will resolve this problem. please help me on this.
    Regards,
    Chandra.

    Chandra,
    Have you used the "Customizing Look and Feel Administrator Responsibility" to create the new look and feel.
    That has some bugs.
    If you have followed the standard way of doing it, you can log a SR with support and ask.
    Please refer the following notes,
    Note 412718.1 - How To Change The Colour And Fonts Size In 11.5.10.2 Version
    Note 566578.1 - Change the look-and-feel of Oracle Applications Using
    CLAF(UI)
    This might help.
    Thanks.

  • Hi how to create Mac os look and feel??

    hi
    please tell me how to create Mac os look and feel.
    thx.

    I've heard about a Skin look and feel, but I've never used it. Maybe you should look into that. It would probably be the easiest way to create a custom look and feel, but you won't automatically be able to use Aqua unless you're on a Mac. Sorry.

  • WebDynpro look and Feel

    Hi,
    I created a webdynpro application and deployed into portals. We are running Portals SP11. But the webdynpro is not getting custom look and feel what has been added to the portal by default, it is displaying SAP Color theme.
    Any ideas please?
    Thanks
    Vijay

    Hi
      Are your J2EE instances different for WAS and EP. If they are then what is the version of your WAS. You have mentioned EP as SP11.
    Note : In SP11 the below mentioned procedure slightly affects the theme. It works fine in SP10 though. See if the steps mentioned below is of any help to you.
    If you want the color schemes to apply for WebDynpro then you will have to set the theme for the WebDynpro application too.
    Download the Theme Editor available in SDN.
    Follow these steps
    Create a new theme editor project with the same name as the theme name in the portal.
    Import your theme file into WebDynpro.
    You will have to generate your custom theme and then right click and export your theme as a zip file.
    Then extract the Zip file to a folder.Copy the extracted files into the folder
    C:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server0\temp\webdynpro\web\sap.com\tcwddispwda\global\SSR\themes
    Then give the path in your Visual Admin --> Configuration Adapter --> WebDynpro >tcwddispwda> default.properties
    Type the path as the following.
    http://<machine_Name>:50000/webdynpro/resources/sap.com/tcwddispwda/global/SSR/themes/sap_chrome
    and also set the property useWebDynproStyleSheet property to true and then restart your J2EE server.
    Hope that helps you. Let me know if you require more inputs
    regards
