Hi Bruno,

sorry for the delay. Documentation is being developed, there are a couple of technical writers working on stuff now.

There should only be 2 css files (style.css seems to have been removed, I think it was extraneous) that have the following purposes:

jxskin-border.css

This file is copied directly from the Jx project and establishes a base set of CSS rules that govern all the Jx components. To modify button sizes, you need to override settings in this file. This can be done by copying and then editing this file and using the copy in place of this file, or by adding another file that just redefines the styles you want to override in your template. Either approach is fine, but for the mapguide templates, we took the second approach.

maroon_fusion.css

This file has all the overrides for Jx to give the template its current colour scheme. It also contains any styles specific to this template.

I think your question about how to change the size of the icons is going to be a common one, so I am going to start a F.A.Q. and include that specific question. I will also try to find the right answer (since CSS isn't my strong point) and post it back to the list :)

The documentation for creating new widgets will likely come a little later. At this point, you can do what we do, which is to copy an existing widget that does something similar (from a user's perspective) and modify it. To do this, it is important to know that the file name and class name in the javascript file are case sensitive and have to be identical, and that is the name you use in the <Type> tag in the ApplicationDefinition.xml file.

Cheers

Paul

I'm trying to figure out how to create new templates and it's not easy
without documentation.
I would like to change the colors, i know there are some css but playing
with them is time consuming.
For one template we have 3 css
 fusion\templates\mapguide\maroon\css\jxskin-border.css
 fusion\templates\mapguide\maroon\css\maroon_fusion.css
 fusion\templates\mapguide\slate\theme\default\style.css
If i want to replace 16x16 toolbar images by 32x32 images, where do i go?

I would also being able to create new components.

Can we expect a documentation in the near futur?
