My design skills aren’t very good, but I don’t really want to spend money on a designer to tell me the obvious stuff (like I want a menu) or things that aren’t possible in Bubble (although … is there much these days ?). In the past I have used services like psd2html to get designs straight into “co…

My thinking was your last point. Get the site up and running, using a Material Design theme (I’m a sucker for all things Googley) and then sit down with a designer friend to make it pretty. My main concern with this is that my web app will have lots and lots of input boxes, repeating groups etc. an…

Thanks :slightly_smiling: Yes, a conundrum. I wonder if it would be possible to do something like Bootstrap (although I prefer MD look as well) that has set sizes for fields etc. So the designer would have a set of constraints about fields and their size/look, but could do the rest ? Might try to…

I’m reading the forum as my Facebook /Medium.com replacement on my phone, so can’t check this out for a while, but is it possible to set up button sizes and drop down menu sizes to a default in the “back end.”? That would help me a lot…

No, they are “drawn” on. So they are not the same size. It would really help, I think, to be able to set this as default and then drop them on the page. I wonder if there is something CSSy that would help in this way. Really, I want to be able to “skin” the app.

For other properties than size, that’s what styles are for. They should replace CSS in some ways, instead of classes, you define styles, and you modify the styles in the styles tab. That will impact all elements on that style in the app.

Could a style also define the size @emmanuel I know it fundamentally changes the way the UI works… But I really want all buttons the same size, all inputs the same size. And I suspect I am not alone. What I end up doing is copying and pasting a button that is about right.

We thought about it, but it’s a tricky one. Because a lot of elements share the same style but have different sizes. I’ll think about it, maybe could be an option on the style or something.

I’d second that. Although maybe cut and paste of buttons is good enough for making mock up designs, if you want to “rough build” the system and then make the design pretty, you are going to have a huge job changing things.

I know, I was thinking about limiting the sizes. Bootstrap offers limited “styles” and also only 4 sizes. [image] The job of changing all Medium to Small … might not be as huge. I could (somehow !) let a designer know what the options were for input and button sizes etc. Styles works well for W…

It would be nice to be able to define our own styles in a CSS view and then be able to add classes or IDs to the elements.
