Sandro Martini commented on PIVOT-689:
--------------------------------------

Committed revision 1619713 (and a small simplification if 1619715):
add defaultBackgroundColor and defaultForegroundColor in Terra Theme json 
config file (to be able to set them) with a good fallback value. Note that even 
in general Theme there are (general) default values for them.
As a sample, add some (very visible: red, and yellow) values for them.

Now I guess if it would be useful to define these values even in 
TerraTheme_default.json (and maybe even in TerraTheme_dark.json) files, for two 
reasons:
- have a sample of its usage (without having to look at code), for our users
- check if change these values, at least in the TerraTheme_default.json file 
(to reduce the whitening effect just seen) ...

> Finishing touches on Skin Colors, some info here (and  more later here in 
> JIRA): https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-579
> See if even the final part of this (not implemented) could be useful: 
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-245
> And there was another discussion (I have to find where, in nabble) is change 
> some color index usage to have better visual appearance (of course 
> retrofitting existing behavior when/if possible).
> Note that probably after these little changes, custom color json files should 
> be a little updated.
> And a little thing on this:
> now only Tooltips doesn't use a palette color (they use an hard-coded color) 
> ... what do you think to make them use the yellow-ish color at
> palette index 19 (or one of is variants, the 18 or 20) ? And use a similar 
> (yellow-ish but a different color index, if possible) color on warnings.
> I could adapt a little that color in all Pivot palettes to look similar to 
> what should be ... tell me.
> For example, someone remember the background color in Swing Tooltips (ok not 
> the best in graphic design and colors :-) ), but with this little change we 
> could also have this little feature, where in most palettes will be 
> yellow-ish, but where needed could be different.
> Added some documentation in the Terra package JavaDoc file on color palette 
> usage in the Terra Skin, to help anyone wants to write their custom colors, 
> and then removed, probably the best place for this is in a Tutorial.
> Last, in ColorSchemeBuilder (and maybe even in the Kitchen Sink), add some 
> Tooltips to see how they happen, but see where they makes sense.
> And maybe in ColorSchemeBuilder move some elements in the Tab2 or Tab3, 
> grouping them by similar components (some componets should be added there).
