Talk:Look & Feel

Revision as of 17:52, 13 September 2006

Tony guan 02:36, 6 September 2006 (UTC): Q: If color parameters for the widgets will not be hard coded, there must be somewhere to store and retrieve them. And the method to retrieve it must be identical for any widget. And the method has to be defined before we write the codes. Am I right?

Sean Moss-Pultz A: Most of the color elements will be decided by the actual images used for the theme. There will be a general method to access this information. User:Mickey can you provide more details here?

Michael 'Mickey' Lauer There won't be any need to specify colors "by hand". We will be using a common class for the dialog, i.e. MokoConfirmationDialog, which will handle this automatically according to the selected theme.

Tony guan 02:21, 6 September 2006 (UTC): Q1:Is the Fonts or Theme related to some hardware Buttons?

Sean Moss-Pultz A: Not at this point. Do you think it should?

Michael 'Mickey' Lauer A: IMO we shouldn't try to mimick hardware appearance in the theme.

Q:Is there any place for the logo of the telecom service provider?

(Sean Moss-Pultz) A: I wasn't planning on it. I don't see any reason to clutter up the background. Does anybody really want this?

(Sean Moss-Pultz) Mickey: I just reviewed my notes and this is the structure we had before:

Power Key On Press (menu with finger-sized hit areas):

• Lock Screen
• Profile List (might need scrolling)
• Power Off

Power Key On Hold

• Power Off

Aux Key On Press

• Main Menu (finger)

Aux Key On Hold

• Dialer

Q: Do you like this or the above method better? Michael 'Mickey' LauerA: I couldn't remember what we specified, but I like this the best. Can you put it into the general Look & Feel document please?

Q2:Will application be aware of the theme change event?

Sean Moss-Pultz A: Yes. This is a global thing that all affects widgets.
