== Look&Feel ==
 
−
Riena provides a Look&Feel for the controls of the navigation. The Riena Look&Feel remembers the Look&Feel of Swing.
 
  
−
A Look&Feel of Riena consists of the Look&Feel with a Theme. The Theme provides the colors, fonts, images and some other settings. In the Look&Feel other renderers for some controls can be set.

−
=== Custom Look&Feel ===
+
−
In your own Look&Feel you must set your Theme and an ID.
+
−
 
+
−
The following steps are necessary:
+
−
 
+
−
#Extent the class <tt>RienaDefaultLnf</tt>
+
−
#Create and set the Theme
+
−
#Return the ID
+
−
 
+
−
Example:
+
−
<source lang="java">
+
−
public class ExampleLnf extends RienaDefaultLnf {
+
−
 
+
−
  public ExampleLnf() {
+
−
    super();
+
−
    setTheme(new ExampleTheme());
+
−
  }
+
−
 
+
−
  @Override
+
−
  protected String getLnfId() {
+
−
    return ExampleLnf;
+
−
  }
+
−
 
+
−
}
+
−
</source>
+
−
 
+
−
To set your custom Look&Feel call the static method <tt>setLnf(lnf)</tt> of the class <tt>LnfManager</tt>. The recommended place to do that is the constructor of the Riena Application (<tt>SwtApplication</tt>):
+
−
 
+
−
Example:
+
−
<source lang="java">
+
−
public SwtExampleApplication() {
+
−
  super();
+
−
  LnfManager.setLnf(new ExampleLnf());
+
−
}
+
−
</source>
+
−
 
+
−
=== Custom Theme ===
+
−
To write your own Theme you must implements the interface <tt>ILnfTheme</tt>.
+
−
 
+
−
The interface has the following four methods:
+
−
 
+
−
<tt>addCustomColors(Map<String, ILnfResource> table)</tt>
+
−
 
+
−
<tt>addCustomFonts(Map<String, ILnfResource> table)</tt>
+
−
 
+
−
<tt>addCustomImages(Map<String, ILnfResource> table)</tt>
+
−
 
+
−
<tt>addCustomSettings(Map<String, Object> table)</tt>
+
−
 
+
−
These methods must be implemented to define the colors, fonts, images and settings for the controls of the navigation.
+
−
 
+
−
It is recommend to extent the default theme of Riena, <tt>DefaultRienaTheme</tt>. All necessary resources and settings are already defined in the default theme. You must only put your own defaults into the tables of the Look&Feel.
+
−
 
+
−
The following line e.g. specifies the background color of a sub module:
+
−
<source lang="java">
+
−
table.put(ILnfKeyConstants.SUB_MODULE_BACKGROUND,new ColorLnfResource(186, 193, 225));
+
−
</source>
+
−
 
+
−
All existing keys for the Look&Feel you can find in the interface <tt>ILnfKeyConstants</tt>. It is not possible to add colors from the type <tt>org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Color</tt>. The colors must be wrapped from an instance of the class <tt>ColorLnfResource</tt>. This helps the Look&Feel to dispose all resources of the Look&Feel. Also wrappers for fonts and images exist.
+
−
 
+
−
=== Custom Renderer ===
+
−
For nearly every control of the navigation a renderer is used to paint it. This renderers can be replaced by own implementations. To write your own renderer please extent an existing default renderer
+
−
 
+
−
To set your own renderer you can use extensions. Therefore Riena provides an extension points: <tt>org.eclipse.riena.ui.swt.lnfrenderer</tt>
+
−
 
+
−
This extension can only have renderer elements. A renderer element has the following three attributes:
+
−
 
+
−
<tt>lnfkey</tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Key of the Look&Feel for the
+
−
renderer (see ILnfKeyConstants)
+
−
 
+
−
<tt>lnfid<tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ID of the your own Look&Feel (see getLnfId())
+
−
 
+
−
<tt>class<tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Class of the RendererExample:
+
−
 
+
−
<source lang="xml">
+
−
<extension point="org.eclipse.riena.ui.swt.lnfrenderer">
+
−
  <renderer class="org.eclipse.riena.example. application.ExampleModuleGroupRenderer"
+
−
            lnfid="ExampleLnf"
+
−
            lnfkey="ModuleGroup.renderer">
+
−
  </renderer>
+
−
</extension>
+
−
</source>
