I like the idea of referencing stuff in one place. I was wondering if it was possible to assign a theme to a component (and children) and another one to another component. Guess not. it's okay :P

yeah, you cant really do that... i mean, there is no such thing as a "theme", its just a set of css

what would be the usecase here anyway? I mean, wouldnt mixing themes be... ugly?

Well, yeah, I thought of it as a way to have smaller css files but it doesn't make much sense anyway ^^

btw, if you just want to make tiny modifications to a "variablized" theme (default / dark)... the theme variables are your friend

"CSS Variables" section

> Another very simple test was editing just these css variables:

xml
<var name="normal-background-color-start" value="#fdcccc" />
<var name="normal-background-color-end" value="#f6bbbb" />
<var name="normal-border-color" value="#d26666" />
<var name="normal-border-size" value="2px" />
<var name="normal-border-radius" value="6px" />
<var name="normal-text-color" value="#444444" />

<var name="selected-background-color" value="#d28888" />

<var name="disabled-background-color-start" value="#fdeeee" />
<var name="disabled-background-color-end" value="#f6cccc" />
<var name="disabled-text-color" value="#cc9999" />
<var name="disabled-border-color" value="#d2aaaa" />

Very nice !

I guess it has some answers too.

Are you planning on adding new Examples in Playground?

new examples for what?

playground or explorer?

For complex templates e.g. Windows.

yeah, valid idea... it would be nice for the explorer "pages" to be able to be run in the builder, but there are a fair few other resources, its not just code + xml (usually)

my concern about adding more examples is its yet another thing i have to keep up to date

Yes, that's the reason they are necessary.

fair point

what i might do at some point is another set of examples, but simpler and not "for the explorer" and then somehow integrate them automatically as example for the builder.. ... ill have a think

Why not just add them as projects? You probably already have them on your desktop.

(assuming by videos from your Facebook/twitter)

well, thats what i mean, a set of distinct projects for one type of "thing" (like a "buttons" project). I actually dont have anything that neatly arranged or separate ... ive got one set of projects ("test benches") where i just keep on piling on test app after test app

it's been long enough that i can't remember how i was supposed to implement displaying images generated from data

in hxwidgets

@bright-gpu-74537 do you remember?

what is the "generated data" ?

raw pixel data

RGBA?

yeah
