Valo location question
After some first experiences with Vaadin I'm now trying to understand the theming stuff (so you can call me a beginner on that subject ...)
I'm using Vaadin 7.5.4 with Eclipse in debug mode. According to chapter 8.1 in the "Book of Vaadin" I should find in the Folder WebContent/VAADIN/themes a "valo" folder and a "mytheme" folder. But when looking into the directory structure, the valo folder is missing and only the "mytheme" folder exists (of course with my project name).
The mytheme/mytheme.scss file contains the line "@import "../valo/valo.scss";", which apparently directs to a non existing file.
According to chapter 8.2 of the book the <head> element of the related HTML page contains a <link> element directing to the related style sheet. But when looking into the header of the HTML page of my VAADIN application, I only see the following two <link> elements:
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon" href="./VAADIN/themes/mytheme/favicon.ico">
<link rel="icon" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon" href="./VAADIN/themes/mytheme/favicon.ico">
So no link to a stylesheet ...
So my question is: Are these observations normal, or am I doing anything wrong?
Hello Mr. Developer,
You're not doing anything wrong. The _valo.scss file is located in vaadin-themes-<version>.jar.
In Eclipse, you should be able to see it via Package Explorer > Your Project > ivy.xml (default), or Project Explorer > Project > Java Resources > Libraries > ivy.xml (default).
