I'm generating docs for my projects, and have noticed a drawback in the current mechanism for stylesheet mangement. If you want to change some colors in your document you may specify some properties in your project.properties to change those colors. That's fine.
Let's say you now want to change completely the appearance of the site, you may create your own maven.css that will be copied as is to the stylesheet directory. That's fine too.
But I wanted to be able to change some properties and keep using maven.css while adding some more properties for hand generated documentation (requirements, analysis, those kind of docs). Maven doesn't let you do this. I have fixed just adding two lines to site.jsl:
<j:set var="tigrisCss" value='"${relativePath}/style/tigris.css"'/>
<j:set var="mavenCss" value='"${relativePath}/style/maven.css"'/>
<j:set var="projectCss" value='"${relativePath}/style/project.css"'/> <- line added
<style type="text/css"><![CDATA[
@import url(${tigrisCss});
@import url(${mavenCss});
@import url(${projectCss}); <- line added
]]></style>
The idea is just having a project stylesheet if you want to keep using maven.css, but add something to the standard stylesheets for your own documents. Do you think this is a good idea? In that case, could it get to the next release?
