A few more tweaks to theme, in version 2011.02.01  i.e. removed top button backgrounds, auto-hide for index frame on load when when entry selected, remove frame borders, keep index heading in view. Example http://familytrees.genopro.com/Ron/GreenLeaf/default.htm

Apologies - my mistake - the theme does apply text colour changes. It helps when you put the customisations in the right skin directory. I am an idiot Wink

Thanks HarryCaper, Alex and Stuart for testing. it is appreciated

I had spotted that the theme is not applied to genomap page and have a fix. The extra line spacing in some indexes is probably down to changes for W3C XHTML conformance and I'll look into these. I have been aware of the slight alignment issue with the index for some time but have not found a fix and perhaps not the energy to pursue the search. The javascript for the indexing is quite old and a little clunky. I would much prefer to use a cleaner interface such as the jquery treeview plugin as used in the Descendant Tree Chart and will look into replacing it when time permits.

Replacing deafult images via a theme is a little problematic as the Report Generator copies all non-template related files form the skin to the output folder as the very last action during generation, overwriting any replacement via a theme. A solution is to move such images out of the images folder into a 'Default' theme images folder. There are some complications to this but hopefully they can be resolved. 

There should not be a problem overriding text colours set in style.css as the theme css is appended to the end of style.css.  Please give and example of what you were trying to change. 

I'm using transparent gifs for button image overlays rather than pngs because AFAIK earlier versions of IE have a problem with transparent pngs unless you apply MS's fudge filter to it (what a lash up!)

I've added a background to the button icon style:

.buttonicon {width:32px;height:32px;border-style:none;border-width:0px; cursor:pointer;background:url(images/button32.jpg);}

so that it can be set to background:none; in a theme displaying just the images, or changed for a different background image for the buttons.

I've tried the 2011.01.29 report you have posted. It applied the GreenLeaf theme, and the maps look to be working as expected.

The genomap popup doesn't have the theme applied, but other than that it all looks good.

I tried the 2011.01.29 skin with an extended GreenLeaft theme, which I hoped would update the text colours as well as the navigation button images, but these additional settings/image files were ignored. I'm guessing this is by design, especially if you're planning to change how the navigation buttons work. Are you going down the route of using .png files with transparency for the navigation buttons?

Just a couple of niggling bits with the toc's. The source pictures section of the Picture index looks to have one too many line breaks before the next item. The Place index, and Sources and Citations indexes both have a little alignment problem for items that have sub-entries. Images attached to demonstrate. I don't believe these are new issues, just very minor and have escaped attention.

Ron, Version 2011.01.29 works great on the latest IE9, Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera browsers. The theme GreenLeaf compiles and looks good. A good idea from HarryCaper and yourself. As to Google Maps it is now working as advertised. I look forward to further theme enharnsements as you said. By way of a suggestion could you add in the report configuration under Google Map Settings "Type of Google Map - Terrain". Thanks for all your hard work. / Stuart

Added version 2011.01.30 to 1st post for those of you brave enough to persevere with the testing! I think it fixes theme issue but work in progress as I have a number of other theme related bits in the pipeline such as getting rid of those ugly frame borders and an option to remove the background from the top icons leaving just the images. That should be available in a day or two.
