Use presentation solution can only change the look&feel of Views and Editors,
Can I change the look&feel of swt widgets, such as Tree, Table , TextInput ...and the background-color of all the gray panels
You can use the e4's CSS engine to render the elements. It works well with 3.x as well.

I come around to setup an background-image for summernote wysiwyg editor, let me know is there any control I need to set or any wysiwyg editor supports this thanks.
Summernote does not explicitly support setting background images in the editor. You should, however, be able to do so by setting the background in css on the .note-editable class, just make sure to do so after Summernotes declaration, i.e. include your style after the Summernote stylesheet. Keep in mind using backgrounds could make the visual appearance of elements inside the editing area harder to visualise.
In the official documentation they suggested to use css for localizing the tool tips of vaadin richtext area and it says:
Localizing RichTextArea Toolbars
The rich text area is one of the few components in Vaadin that contain
textual labels. The selection boxes in the toolbar are in English and
currently can not be localized in any other way than by inheriting or
reimplementing the client-side VRichTextToolbar widget. The buttons
can be localized simply with CSS by downloading a copy of the toolbar
background image, editing it, and replacing the default toolbar. The
toolbar is a single image file from which the individual button icons
are picked, so the order of the icons is different from the rendered.
The image file depends on the client-side implementation of the
toolbar.
.v-richtextarea-richtextexample .gwt-ToggleButton
.gwt-Image {
background-image: url(img/richtextarea-toolbar-fi.png)
!important;
}
I've downloaded the toolbar background image.
My question is how can I localize the string used for the tool-tips of the Rich Text Area tool bar? Or is there any vaadin add-ons that can be used as a replacement of Rich Text Area with language localization feature?
Try Vaadin Addon - Wrapper for CK Editor.
Here you can find online demo. It automaticaly localizes to my browser language.
You can find more information on official CKEditor site.
Currently SWT's TabFolder supports only the TOP and BOTTOM styles, ie. it will only draw the tabs horizontally along the top or bottom of the control. This is unlike Swing's JTabbedPane, which gives the option of also orienting the tabs vertically, along the side of the control.
Can anyone suggest any workarounds to achieve a vertical orientation in SWT? Any suggestions of custom or 3rd-party components (or other alternative) would be appreciated.
I don't know of any SWT-compatible controls like that, but you could build your own alternative using a StackLayout and some control(s) to switch between the different "panels." Here's a simple example SWT Snippet.
You could also look at the code for CTabFolder and see if it would be straightforward to modify it to suite your needs.
I am thinking of migrating my GWT app from "native GWT" to GXT, however I want to know whether there is a theme in GXT that looks just like the native theme of GWT, com.google.gwt.user.theme.standard.Standard
Also in my "native GWT" application I apply my own css to some widgets. Does the CSS-format for widgets the same with GXT as it is with the native GWT widgets? Like for Button, MenuBar, Panels etc.
Basically GXT 2 has just two themes (blue and gray). There is no such a theme that looks like native GWT, but thats why you should choose GXT, becuose it has rich components and you don't have to take care of your css and other stuffs. Also is not easy to change you style.
Ext GWT 2.0, widgets are responsible for creating their DOM structure
directly. This is done either by manually creating the elements or by
using an HTML fragment. The HTML for the widget is created from
strings, from an XTemplate, or by assembling DOM elements. The CSS
class names are then applied to the elements by the widgets. With this
approach, a widget’s view is tightly bound to the widget itself and
CSS class names are generally hardcoded into the widget.
Because the way how was build is really difficult to change the style of your component. But the new version 3.0 has a new approach that make easier to change your style and you can also combine with native gwt widget.

I have a gwt application which I need to apply custom themes for specific widgets, so I can maintain the Standard gwt CSS (for other widgets that I don't need to apply css to) in the gwt.xml file :
<inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.standard.Standard'/>
I am using ClientBundle and CssResource approach in my app. I have applied simple css however I need to make a css that will be able to apply css for: selected and not selected, hover and push events/actions on a widget, just like what the standard gwt css provides.
What to write in the my css file so that for a MenuBar when I apply this:
ManuBar menuBar = new MenuBar(false);
menuBar.setStyleName(AppResources.INSTANCE.css().menuBar())
I will get the same MenuBar effects of a standard MenuBar css of gwt? With the App.css I have below, I just get a black menubar and the font-color of the menubar does not change, I think there is a proper way to apply css with gwt widgets, however I cannot find a good resource about this on the web. What I am trying to accomplish is to be able to change the menubar color theme to say, black, chrome or whatever color but still make the widget look like a real menubar.
App.css:
.menuBar {
background:#3c3b37;
font-weight:bold;
color:#FFFFFF;
font-size:10px;
}
I have a feeling you might be experiencing the problem lots of us face when we forget to call ensureInjected on the CssResource. The CSS never gets added to the page, and so it looks like it's not working.
AppResources.INSTANCE.css().ensureInjected();
why not try simply with menuBar.setStyleName("menuBar"); I'm sure this will work.
