Re: [e4-dev] Themes for Eclipse 4

[Eric Moffatt <emoffatt@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Mike, the other area that seems problematic
is the menu rendering which has limited styling abilities at least on some
platforms (Windows ?). Perhaps we should be producing platform-specific
themes that use the menu (and header?) styling where it's supported in
the true CSS 'best attempt' manner ?

Question for SWT: Do either the table
header or menu support 'owner draw' ? If so then using this would likely
be far less effort that re-implementing them...

Onwards,
Eric

Well, one possibility would be (for
SWT) to hide the standard headers and "custom draw" an equivalent
(if you've styled them). Obviously, this is a lot of work, but if that's
what's standing in the way of the theming flexibility we want, then we
should consider it. I'm not going to assume, a priori, any restrictions
on what is possible. If you need the capability enter a bug requesting
it.

Those are Aqua widgets and can't be changed, just like SWT Button(SWT.PUSH).
The only solution is to change to a different platform, I think!
