How to change the src for SectionStackSection ?

[sthirunav]

Hi,

Am trying to change the theme for a sectionstacksection, as i wanted to show a particular section in a different color. But it looks like the setAttribute("src", <customlocation>) on sectionstacksection doesnt pickup the custom images from that custom location.

Is that the right place am setting the image path ?

Hi,

I've spend a last few hours with this problem and finally found a solution.
Not the best one but still.

I've created new SectionHeader class with custom background and new SectionStack class that uses SectionHeader by default.

In "load_skin.js" (probably this code also can be run with simple JSNI:

isc.defineClass("MySectionHeader", "ImgSectionHeader");
isc.MySectionHeader.changeDefaults("backgroundDefaults", {
  src:"[SKIN]SectionHeader/header2.png",
})

isc.defineClass("MySectionStack", "SectionStack");
isc.MySectionStack.addProperties({
  sectionHeaderClass:"MySectionHeader"
})

Then I can use this in GWT by:

SectionStack stack = new SectionStack();
stack.setScClassName("MySectionStack");

Hope that helps.
Best regards

Thank You, but that's like modifying the core js. Rather am just trying to change the src location to look for the images in a different location. I have done a similar one to change the tab's theme. Like,

tab.setAttribute("src", "custumTab/tab.png")

where customTab folder will be located out of Skins directory structure. Under customTab I will have all the custom colored images(tab_end.png, tab_stretch.png, etc.,)

In short, am just trying change the src location to be different for a particular section without changing the core.

Thanks.

No, that's not modifying core JS, that's using the skinning APIs as covered in the Skinning Guide.
