Feature Proposals » Customize TopMenuSkin action buttons

Motivation

TopMenuSkin can provide more flexibility on customizing top bar buttons. Then we can make our new skin compatible with TopMenuSkin.

Description and Documentation

We create a new skin to override action buttons on top right corner, but this skin can't be compatible with TopMenuSkin because it hard coded the top bar buttons in "data/TWiki/TopMenuSkinTopBar.txt", which leaves other skin users no option to customize it. This enhancement includes two changes

1. Change "data/TWiki/TopMenuSkinTopBar.txt" to allow customize top bar buttons.
   • The action buttons on top right corner is defined by the template c
2. Change "templates/view.topmenu.tmpl" to allow override the CSS definition of the top bar buttons area.
   • Setup the default action buttons for

     %TMPL:P{"topbarbuttons"}%

   • Separate the topbardimensions definition into three small parts "twtopbar", "twtopbarbuttons" and "twtopbarpattern" to make css override is more flexible.
