Missing Disabled components from Kitchen Sink

[Sandro Martini <sa...@gmail.com>]

Hi to all,
what do you thing on adding some missing components (in my opinion) in
the Tutorial (maybe in a dedicated disabled subpanel):

- push buttons disabled and pressed
- a rollup disabled
- opt other elements disabled ...

to see in there are visual problems with elements in this state (for
example could be less in evidence that they are disabled ...).
I found a small bug of this situation in other Java Frameworks, so why
not to try ?

Bye,
Sandro

Ok, I'll try it after the current things ...

It is possible to disable any component, so I don't think we  
explicitly need to demonstrate it for every component type we have. On  
the other hand, you make a good point about verifying that each  
component type correctly handles a disabled state. That's why I think  
it belongs in test. You are welcome to create some test cases for this.

For Substance, I asked to add a sample of PushButton pressed and
disabled, and was a (little, ok) feature useful to see. Maybe also the
disabled rollup could be useful here, to show users that's possible,
and how it is.

Tell me what to do.

We have some examples of disable buttons in the Kitchen Sink app.

I agree that we should ensure that our disabled components behave  
correctly, but I think this kind of thing probably belongs in the test  
package rather than the tutorials.
