%STARTINCLUDE% ---+!! Pattern skin *<nop>PatternSkin is developed to provide a CSS based default look and feel for TWiki - flexible and W3C-compliant.* Its layout and color scheme are designed to provide a nice, clean and productive _editing environment_. For use in corporate or perhaps in personal websites it should be fairly easy to tune the looks or even create a !PatternSkin-based new skin. %TOC{title="Page contents"}% ---++ Screen Shot <a href="%ATTACHURL%/patternskin_screenshot_full.gif"><img src="%ATTACHURL%/patternskin_screenshot.gif" style="border:1px solid #eee;" alt="Click for full screen image" width="600" height="130" /></a> <!-- %SEARCH{ "%TOPIC%" scope="topic" nosearch="on" nototal="on" format="$pattern(.*\| *Screenshot\:[^\|]*\|([^\|]*).*)" }% <div class="twikiGrayText">Click to view full screenshot</div>--> ---++ Supported browsers !PatternSkin has been tested successfully on the following browsers: * Windows * Internet Explorer 6.0, 5.5 (note: Explorer 5.0 is *not* supported: will function but shows visual quirks) * Mozilla/Firefox * Mac OS X * Safari 1.2 * Mozilla/Firefox Not tested, but will probably work (let me know): * *nix * Mozilla/Firefox ---++ Installation *Note:* You do not need to install anything on the browser to use this skin. The following instructions are for the administrator who installs the skin on the server where TWiki is running. *Note 2:* !PatternSkin is included with TWiki by default. Use the following instructions only if you are upgrading !PatternSkin. * Download the ZIP file from the Skin Home page (see below) * Unzip ==%TOPIC%.zip== in your twiki installation directory * Test if installed: %SCRIPTURL%/view%SCRIPTSUFFIX%/%WEB%/%TOPIC%?skin=pattern * For skin activation see %TWIKIWEB%.TWikiSkins ---+++ Troubleshooting If you have set the SKIN variable setting to =pattern= and you still don't see the layout as on the <a href="%ATTACHURL%/patternskin_screenshot_full.png">screenshot</a>, a few settings in may have been disabled. Check these variables here: * TWIKILAYOUTURL = %TWIKILAYOUTURL% * TWIKISTYLEURL = %TWIKISTYLEURL% * SKIN = %SKIN% If TWIKILAYOUTURL or TWIKISTYLEURL don't give a value or point to non-existing files, check in TWiki.TWikiPreferences that the following variables do exist and that they are set to on: <pre> * %<nop>TWIKIWEB%.PatternSkin settings: * <nop>Set TWIKILAYOUTURL = %<nop>PUBURL%/%<nop>TWIKIWEB%/PatternSkin/layout.css * <nop>Set TWIKISTYLEURL = %<nop>PUBURL%/%<nop>TWIKIWEB%/PatternSkin/style.css </pre> If this still does not work, contact the administrator who installs skins. For further troubleshooting and feedback, go to TWiki:Plugins/PatternSkinDev. ---++ Creating your own look It is easy to tune the look and feel of !PatternSkin by changing the color and space (margin, padding) settings in the Style Sheet files. You may also choose to radically change the look and create a !PatternSkin-based new skin. This is easier than to create a skin by writing new template files; you can concentrate on how things should look instead of what elements should get displayed. You can either: * Change the =layout.css= and =style.css= attachment files for this topic (upload updated versions) * In TWiki.TWikiPreferences, point the variables =TWIKILAYOUTURL= and =TWIKISTYLEURL= to other attachments, perhaps in another topic (your new skin topic?) See for practical details: PatternSkinCustomization %BR% The CSS classes that !PatternSkin uses are documented in PatternSkinCss. ---++ Customization See: PatternSkinCustomization, PatternSkinPalette ---++ Further reading * PatternSkinCustomization - Practical information on how to change the looks of !PatternSkin * PatternSkinPalette - How to change the colors only * PatternSkinCss - A reference to used CSS classes * TWiki:Plugins/PatternSkinDev - Development page, bug reports, solutions from users ---++ Skin Info | Description: | Provides a CSS based default look and feel for TWiki - flexible and W3C-compliant | | Screenshot: | <a href="%ATTACHURL%/patternskin_screenshot_full.gif"><img src="%ATTACHURL%/patternskin_screenshot.gif" style="border:1px solid #eee;" alt="Click for full screen image" width="600" height="130" /></a> | | Base Name: | pattern | | Skin Author: | TWiki:Main/ArthurClemens | | Skin Version: | 28 Aug 2004 (v1.0.9) | | History: | <!-- specify latest version first --> | | 28 Aug 2004: | v.1.0.9 - CAIRO RELEASE VERSION - Removed twikiTopic div from attach template | | 24 Aug 2004: | v.1.0.8 - Fix for disabled !TablePlugin; added plain.pattern.tmpl | | 23 Aug 2004: | v.1.0.7 - Change to checkboxes in edit and preview screen; removed REVINFO at bottom; style changes | | 22 Aug 2004: | v.1.0.6b - Removed files from zip that are now part of the TWiki distribution; removed .DS_Store files | | 17 Aug 2004: | v.1.0.6 - Support for twikiMoved css class | | 17 Aug 2004: | v.1.0.5 - Fix for not showing SEARCHSTRING | | 16 Aug 2004: | v.1.0.4 - Fixes search results layout with noheader="on" | | 14 Aug 2004: | v.1.0.3 - Update to attach template, css fix to edit template | | 14 Aug 2004: | v.1.0.2 - Fixes print template, table paddings in topics, minor changes to style.css | | 13 Aug 2004: | v.1.0.1 - Updated /data/TWiki/WebLeftBarPersonalTemplate and style.css | | 08 Aug 2004: | Initial version (v1.0.0) | | Dependencies: | | | Skin Home: | http://TWiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Plugins/%TOPIC% | | Feedback: | http://TWiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Plugins/%TOPIC%Dev | %STOPINCLUDE% | Download: | http://TWiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Plugins/%TOPIC% | ---++ Related topics * TWikiCss * WebBottomBar * WebLeftBar * WebLeftBarExample * WebLeftBarPersonalTemplate * WebLeftBarCookbook * WebTopBar See also [[%TOPIC%#Further_reading][Further reading]] on this page.
