<div class="markdown_content"><p>Allow external and inline styling of UI components used<br /> to display SurveyObjects. Use CSS syntax, with<br /> external linkable files, and inline object attributes<br /> using style="". This should allow styling things like<br /> font size/color/alignment, the images used in<br /> ListItemButton, the orientation of ResponseList<br /> (Vertical/Horizontal), the alignment of ResponseList,<br /> and anything else supported by the UI component.</p> <p>Should use reflection to UI component methods to set<br /> styling, so that new UI components don't require<br /> changes to the app itself to use their own style<br /> properties.</p> <p>Using external .css files will allow developers to<br /> maintain a capi.css, cati.css, web.css, handheld.css,<br /> etc, to make the survey appear in the best format for<br /> each mode. For instance, having a long responselist<br /> wrap columns is good for capi, but a handheld would be<br /> better suited with a single scrollable list.</p> <p>Using inline style="" attributes will allow developers<br /> to specify a style for a component regardless of mode.<br /> For instance, a certain question requiring a<br /> horizontally oriented response list would sue &lt;resp<br /> style="orientation: horizontal;"&gt;</p></div>
