WebCustomUI is an extension to the Xojo Web framework bringing customization to the highest possible level.
This set of controls will give your applications a unique and professional display.
Ten default styles are included, which can be easily edited into new styles using the CustomUI Style Builder.
Contents
Available Controls
Each control is a subclass of the Xojo Web controls.
Limitations
Future versions of Xojo
- The UI_Slider uses a small javascript hack to replace the picture of the Knob (a.k.a Thumb). This behavior might break in future versions of Xojo.
Known Issues
- UI_Slider doesn't display an Enabled=False state. The Knob just won't be active.
- UI_PopupMenu shows the regular drop-down arrow on Firefox until Firefox v35
- UI_RadioButton and UI_Checkbox don't have custom style in Internet Explorer
To do list
Currently, UI_SearchField doesn't display correctly on Safari for MacOS. We recommend to use a UI_TextField for all SearchFields.
History
Beta 6
- Fixed UI_SearchField in Safari
- RadioButton and CheckBox now display correctly
Beta 5
- Improved Text selection color
- Improved default styles
- Improved Selection color for UI_Listbox and UI_FileUploader
- UI_Module.FontFamily property to set the font-family for all controls
Beta 4
- Fixed some issues in Internet Explorer
- Fixed some major issues in Safari
- Improved Enabled=False for all controls
Information
There is no UI_Label control to replace the WebLabel control.
It isn't necessary to replace the Label controls to apply the Custom UI style.
Font-Family isn't included in the Styles in order to keep a global font style.
However, editing the UI_Module.FontFamily property in the App.Open event will enable changing the font throughout the entire UI.
The "Got Wood" UI Style is a proof of concept. It is very heavy on the CSS side, with approximately 200KB of CSS.
We do not recommend using this Style in your own projects.
Requirements
WebCustomUI does not require any special hardware or software on your web server.
Any web server that can run Xojo WebApps is sufficient to use WebCustomUI.
On the client side, a CSS3 enabled Browser is necessary.
All web Browsers supported by Xojo are compatible, including Mobile Browsers.
As of Xojo 2015R1, Opera browser isn't supported.
Until version 35 of Firefox, a bug with "-moz-appearance:none" happens with PopupMenus.
It is highly recommmended to update Firefox to the latest version or to use a Webkit browser such as Safari or Google Chrome (Chromium).
