Dan Allen commented on JBSEAM-1562:
-----------------------------------

The other issue is that seam-gen uses a stylesheet that assumes the blueSky theme. I tried it with emeraldTown and the result didn't look quite right. Now this, of course, goes back to my point that RichFaces *really* needs some stylized buttons (not sure how they forgot that one). So we might want to hold off anyway until we can do it in one step (without 10 stylesheets).

However, pending we have some decent buttons, I think it is worth doing. It is a nice way to show off RichFaces and gets people interested in trying different skins. Oracle tried to push their skinning for months and no one cared. One because they look like crap, but also because it was that small extra step that seemed hard. RichFaces is just so cool looking that we want to show it off.

Okay, I am off the stand now.

> seam-gen uses RichFaces panels and widgets in the UI.  However, the user is stuck with the blueSky skin as the default.  I think it would be really nice to add this question to the setup questionnaire.  It gives them that warm fuzzy feeling that the project they are about to create will have some of their style added to it.
