User interfaces

HI there guys...I'm having a problem right now...and I need someone who helps me fixing the presentation and graphical image of a pivot application, the real problem is that the components has no styles at all...this is an example of one of my pages.

If you can see, there are no borders...styles nothing at all

Hi all,

good work, congratulations to all :-) ...

A quick note, if someone has/want to share with us something, remember that
we have some projects even on Apache-Extras (hosted on GoogleCode), like
this:

http://code.google.com/a/apache-extras.org/p/pivot-contrib/

and put project code in a dedicated folder there.

Note that we have other subprojects on Apache-Extras (all starts with pivot
in the name).


For example some things that we have never had enough time to do are:
some non-trivial composite components,
an additional skin,
a full client/server application with real security (on this I hope to
release soon my plugin for Grails to use as a starting point from
Pivot-Stuff, and even some utility servlet for download jars/files, from
pivot-stuff-web),
etc ...


Tell me and we can discuss here (all together) if/how to start collaborate
... but requirements are simple:
all has to be open source, distributed with the Apache License, and using
libraries with license compatible with Apache.
If possible, build using a standard tool like Ant, or Maven or Gradle, or
manually as a starting point.
And interest in share and work with others :-) .
Then, anyone of Pivot PMC Members can give Commiters grant to interested
people there ... only tell to us.


Bye,
Sandro

Hi Camilo,

I'm working in some layouts for a project, and if you think some of then can help you I can send you the bxml.
Note that this is a work in progress, so there are things not resolved yet, though they are simple ones (for example, in these images attached I need to make my border fill al the emplty space).

I can't help you developing layouts, but we can exchange some tips during our projects. I'm on skype at night (I'm in Brazil, so GMT +4 now). My skype id is  luizgustavoss.

Hi Camilo,
I'm sorry, I'd like to help you in some way but hadn't time in these weeks (too much trouble at work and on Pivot) ... but maybe someone of us can.

If you can, move to Pivot-2.0.1, and for prototyping use the new Demo: BXML Explorer, I'm sure it will help you, at least for fast visual feedback.
And with the (usual) Component Explorer you can see immediately changes to styles.

Keep us updated :-) .

Hi Camilo,
sorry, to better understand your problem ... do you need only borders around areas (in the right side of the screen), or even other things ?
Can you post here the bxml used (or a subset of it ) ?


Do you know that with 2.0.1 now you can see something even in the BXML Explorer Demo (maybe could help) ?
You can try it online even from here: http://pivot.apache.org/demos/bxml-explorer.html
