The NGClient utilizes unprocessed CSS (3.0) to do all styling of solutions.
All possible CSS properties can now be used, like:
- All types of selectors
- Pseudo-classes
Solution StyleSheet
The stylesheet can be specified at solution level, it has to be stored in the media, for usage of images from media library do use relative URL's.
CSS Selectors
StyleSheets for the Servoy Smart and Web Client could make use of Servoy specific type selectors. In the NGClient, where the stylesheets are interpreted by the browser, these Servoy specific type selectors are not available. Below a conversion table from the Servoy specific type selectors to their NGClient equivalent.
Smart/Web Client Type Selector | NGClient Selector |
---|---|
body | [ng-style="bodyStyle"] |
button | .svy-button |
calendar | .svy-calendar |
check | .svy-check |
checkgroup | .svy-checkgroup |
htmlarea | .svy-htmlarea |
htmlview | .svy-htmlview |
imagemedia | .svy-mediafield |
combobox | .svy-combobox |
even | .ngRow.even |
field | .svy-field |

Also NGClient will output special classes for default components that can be used from solution css to easily style all components of same time. The name of the class is svy-componentName (so svy-label, svy-button, svy-calendar, svy-textfield...).
In NGClient, Sevoy specific selectors such as:
label.bold { font-weight: bold; } field.bold { font-weight: 900; }
should become
.label_bold { font-weight: bold; } .field_bold { font-weight: 900; }
Then the styleClass property of the elements should be changed from "bold" to "label_bold" or "field_bold".
Changes from previous version
The "margin" css property should be changed with the "padding" property.
label { margin: 1px 2px 3px 4px; }
should become
.label { padding: 1px 2px 3px 4px; }
In the webclient, the font-size property is changed at runtime, so in order to keep the same runtime sizes in the NGClient, the css files should be updated just like in the following examples:
field.label { font-size: 20pt; } field.textfield { font-size: 20px; }
should become
.field_label { font-size: 15pt; } .field_textfield { font-size: 26px; }
