Hi Bruno:
I'd like to give you some feedback. Since I haven't used it much I will
need to install and test. I won't be able to get to it until tomorrow or
Saturday.

Hi Bruno,

Actually I use more, in that order, Flat Grey and Business Time. There are no real reasons. I will try to use it a bit more and will
give you a feedbak then.

Cheers

Hi Bruno,

I like the fact that you've segmented the main business areas becasue as a user, their is less distraction and less to confuse me with parts of ofbiz that I'm never likely to use. I think that's the key. in the real world, most users are limited to certain areas andare never likely to go outside. Example would be that a content editor would be highly unlikely to have the need to even see accounting. On the other hand, if I'm an accounting geek I would probably want to see most of what is available to me like invoices, payments, transactions, etc on the same page and at the moment I have to go looking through a dropdown. Its basically an extra click that is probably not needed. Of course, if their were tens of areas within the accounting manager, to use another dropdown would probably be good. As a user, I'd also like to see better use of the whole page. there is so much white space on there.

I hope this is useful to you. Thanks.

Thank you Scott.
Actually, since both the Applications menu and the ApplicationTab
appears simply hovering on them, it seems to me that there is no extra
click needed compared to flatgrey.
For the white space, this is what I tried to reduce starting from
flatgrey and if you swap between those two themes on the same page you
can find that the content is moved up when you select bluelight (there
is even a pending path that improves this).

Thank you again,
Bruno

Bruno,

I love the concept of the breadcrumb navigation.  It is innovative, compact, and informative - once you figure out how to use it.  I think in its current implementation, it is not very intuitive.  It looks like a breadcrumb, and acts like a nav, but since it is a multi-functional element, it should look like a multi-functional element.  It needs to look like a breadcrumb and it needs to look like navigation.  Some of Yahoo!'s properties like Yahoo! Food and Yahoo! TV are good examples of this concept done right.  I would love to see something like this in the BlueLight theme:

Just my 2 cents.  I like what you have done so, I just think it needs a little love...

Thank you Ryan,
wow! Your samples are really cool!

I will try to find a little "love" to spend on BlueLight but I do not think I will be able to reach what you suggest.
Many thanks!

I like the bluelight theme. It has a fresh and bright feel... As such I find
it more appealing than flatgray.
However, the font size is to large for my taste. And I would rather like to
see that I could go straight from the toplevel to a sub menu in
'applications' via some cascading of menu-items and sub menus.

Further more if functionality is not supposed to be shown it should not be
seen (e.g. competitors in the SFA menu), but I guess that has less to do
with the style sheet.

My 2 cents.

Regards,

Pierre

Hi Jacques,
thank you for reporting.
This is fixed in trunk revision: 829498. In any case this was not
strictly related to Bluelight.

Thanks Bruno,

Yes, it was late and just after I remembered having seen this also with Flat Grey.
I guess, as there are some new interests around SFA, your remarks, about better use of decorators, should be taken seriously during
forthcoming work.
