Changing themes mid application

I’ve been trying to change theme right after our login screen, based on user preferences. I’ve tried changing both application and main window theme. The problem is that browsers keep using the original theme (whether toolkit ‘default’ or some other) until the user refreshes the page.

Is this a bug or normal, and has anyone managed to overcome this?

Hi!

I think our client side implementation doesn’t support changing the theme on the fly. But it should be made possible. I can try to fix this today.

It will need a complete refresh of the page though, so it wont be as snappy as other changes in Toolkit application.

Hi!

I fixed this right away in #1924.

Too bad the trunk is pretty unstable atm (next point release will is/will be late). If you are in hurry you may want to bring the change to your own widget set.

Thanks for your quick help! I was considering doing some drastic changes (new application or opening new window) but this change should work just perfectly.
