Changing the Theme from Motif

Post by peter_lboro » Fri Mar 11, 2011 6:25 pm

I'm trying to produce a simple data capture app for a customer to run on their iPads. I'm using standard text fields, radio buttons, tab buttons, etc., nothing fancy and no need for bespoke graphics, icons, etc.

However, the default Motif theme looks VERY dated and not particularly clear. Does anyone know if it's possible to change the theme from Motif to native iPad style or Mac OS style say, so it looks clearer and more modern?

Thanks for any help.

Peter

Hi Peter,

sorry, this is not (yet?) possible.
You may want to use nice graphics to "fake" a nicer look. 8)
