Users can show or hide - children from a small icon before the actual column value in the - first column.</p> - <p>TreeTable is, similarly to Table, designed to scale well with - large number of rows by only sending the needed rows to the browser. - With the Collapsible Container extension, a developer can build the - data provider so that it does not consume too much memory on the - server side either.</p> - <p> - <b>Chameleon Theme</b> - </p> - <p>Chameleon Theme provides a completely new look and feel for - your application.</p> - <p> - The theme is built on top of the Vaadin Base theme and tries to keep - out of the way where appropriate, so small modifications are easy to - do with CSS. - <p> - The theme contains several different useful styles for many of the - basic components like <i>big</i> and <i>warning</i> for a Label. You - can even combine many styles together, like <i>big warning</i> - </p> - If the default color scheme does not suit your taste, feel free to - use the online color scheme editor at <a - href="http://demo.vaadin.com/">http://demo.vaadin.com</a> to build a - customized theme.You can also change the base font size for the whole - theme with the same editor. - <p> - <i>Note that the theme is intentionally simplified for some - browsers, most notably old Internet Explorer versions.</i> -
