Thank you for your clarification Anil. I can see I was confused. I thought this
was a part of the portable device UI movement.
I like your proposal. We have created role-oriented UIs here by copying and
modifying existing files. Your approach would be simpler. I look forward to
seeing your contribution.

Adrian,
This may not be help for applications for portable devices, At times we
need
applications that use screens from one or more ofbiz core components and
assemble a cohesive tool set for certain role in company. E.g I am doing a
asset maintenance application that needs Fixed Asset screens from
Accounting, Screens for defining and managing Products like for Parts and
Products that define the spec of Fixed Asset. There are few screens needed
from Facility Manager for Inventory management, some from Party for
managing
Employees, Vendor, Manufacturer etc.
Once this app reaches certain usable level I'll contribute the code to
community for review. Hope I answered your question.

I'd like to see what others have to say about this subject.
The question is: How can we accomodate OFBiz running on portable devices
without
re-writing the entire UI? Is that even possible?
How does "parameterizing the location of decorators" help this effort?
I'm
not
clear on how such a thing would be implemented.
