Styling and Appearance

jQWidgets uses a pair of CSS files - jqx.base.css and jqx.[theme name].css. The base stylesheet creates the styles related to the widget's layout like margin, padding, border-width, position. The second css file applies the widget's colors and backgrounds. The jqx.base.css should be included before the second CSS file.

Below is the list of CSS classes used by jqxWindow.
  • jqx-widget – applied to the jqxWindow.
  • jqx-window – applied to the jqxWindow.
  • jqx-window-disabled – applied to the jqxWindow when it’s disabled.
  • jqx-window-header – applied to the window’s header.
  • jqx-widget-header – applied to the window’s header.
  • jqx-window-content – applied to the window’s content.
  • jqx-widget-content – applied to the window’s content.
  • jqx-window-close-button – applied to the window’s close button.
  • jqx-window-collapse-button – applied to the window’s collapse button.
  • jqx-window-modal – setting styles of the modal window’s background.
When you create a custom style with colors and backgrounds for jqxWindow, you need to do the following:
  • Add the above CSS classes related to jqxWindow
  • After each CSS class, add your theme name.
    For example:
    jqx-window-summer
  • To apply your custom style to jqxWindow, you need to set its 'theme' property(option) to point to your theme name string.
  • The sample below demonstrates how to set the 'Summer' theme to jqxWindow.
