tomahawk theme

[Adam Heath-2]

Have people had a chance to look at the tomahawk theme yet?  I'd like
to have a vote to switch the default theme to tomahawk.  It's much
more usable than bizznesstime(doesn't have the right column issue,
which is completely unusable, with any middle content that is too wide).

[Scott Gray-2]

I like it.  Unless there is some opposition to the theme becoming the default then I would say just go for it after waiting a day or two.

In terms of feedback the following bothers me (but are by no means blockers):
- The drop down menus are exposed until the page is fully loaded, looks bad on slow loading pages such as the entity and service lists in webtools
- The default buttontext images are too dark on the lower half, unless I've got my screen quite bright they don't read so well
- The yellow left and top border on the buttontext images doesn't look so great (just an opinion)

I haven't used it a huge amount so that's all I've got, but all in all it looks great, nice work Bruno and Erik.

Regards
Scott

Erik has said that the theme is not completely implemented, but it was
so much better than what was already available, that we decided to
commit it before it was fully finished.

Bruno has been very good at adding additional markup to the generated
html, to allow Erik to style it.  There are still things that need to
be done.

What has helped greatly, is that we have trained Erik to actually use
the ofbiz backend in detail now, so he's been going thru clicking and
trying stuff all on his own.

Is it there on the demo site?

Also changing themes on the demo site is broken. Accessing
https://ofbiz-vm.apache.org:8443/catalog/control/LookupVisualThemes 
results in below error.
*:ERROR MESSAGE:*
org.ofbiz.webapp.control.RequestHandlerException: Unknown request

directly.

Thanks,

Hi Adam,

i like the new layout, pretty awesome.  Nice look and feel for the first
impression.

I haven't time test it in detail but maybe their will be some at the WE.
Yesterday i try to reach the example screens --> example forms, the menu
didn't work, get some ftl errors.


Good work so far

Hi Sascha,
I think i have already ported the layered lookups stuff on tomahawk.
Could you please give a look to the menu persistence that has been
reported by Scott? I was not able to fix it yet.
Thank you.
Bruno

Thank you Scott for feedback.
I agree and we will work for these.
In addition I think that when tomahawk will be the default theme we
could *drop* the dropping crumbs theme since tomahawk is its
evolution.

This theme looks great guys - fantastic work.  The container and drop downs really are easy to use and make a lot of sense.  The only constructive criticism that I have is that I like the Bizzness Time theme's font and forms inside a good bit better - not the size, but the font itself.  The font here appears to have been pulled from the flat grey days and that was never my favorite even then.

Anyways, great stuff.

Cheers,
Ruppert

An additional issue (which is probably related to the menu being exposed during page load):
If I click on a menu item directly underneath the mega menu (or whatever they are called) then the mega menu acts in reverse when the new page loads, i.e. roll over hides it and roll out exposes it.

Steps to reproduce:
1.  Go to: https://ofbiz-vm.apache.org/catalog/control/EditCategory?productCategoryId=FA-100
2.  Click on the Category menu item directly underneath the Applications menu
3.  Move the mouse and watch the menu go a little crazy :-)

Scott

Hey,

i think i found another little bug in the menu.
The Application menu and Application name images didn't fit to the menu
background. Seems that they are displaced (only one or two pixel). Maybe
someone can have a look.

There are unclosed elements in the main navigation:

<div id="main-navigation">
   <h2>Applications</h2>
   <ul>
     <li>
       <ul class="main">
         <li>
           <ul class="primary">
