History¶

Description¶

The Squeejee© theme is an updated, packaged release of Wynn Netherland's work for Squeejee's internal Redmine instance. It initially was a heavily modified derivation of the alternate theme which required Redmine core hacks but is made stand-alone and working without core hacks (by using the core's support for project-menu item styling (r2059)) for this release.

It's looks can be best described as a dark theme with gradient backgrounds, dark-gray and bold links, but all with a "shiny" and "friendly" touch. It reintroduces the project-menu item-icons with the extension that styling of third-party plugins (including selected icons) is supported too.
Also the overflow to a second line of the project-menu, when using a lot of plugins with menu-items, is handled without disturbing the surrounding layout and elements.

The colour-scheme basically consists of three basic colours: black, grey and white.

It includes:

• issue-colouring in the issuelist based on issue's priority
• more sophistically styled "tabs", "tables", etc.
• support for third-party plugins

Compatibility¶

Redmine¶

The theme is compatible with Redmine 0.7.x, 0.8.x and the bleeding-edge in the trunk.

This theme is tested and found working (without major showstoppers) on the big-four of browser-engines:

• Gecko (Mozilla)
• Presto (Opera)
• Trident (Internet Explorer)
• WebKit (Safari/Chrome)

Though, mainly due to some poor browser CSS-implementations (mainly IE), some minor changes can occur.
