A simple question. How may I change how Spring Roo generates it's views so I do not need to change them post-creation? If I were to follow the tutorial it would look like this, they however change the layout to this. From what I understand they have to change this manually after the view has been generated. What if I wanted the second view to be the base of all my generated views instead of the first one? Need I modify the source code or is there some simple way to override the generating code? Is it possible to set one base up for different projects?
Roo uses Tiles (used for templating) and JSP tags for all of that stuff, and has built-in theme handling as well. I believe in the tutorial for the Pizza shop, they are using a combination of modifing the Tiles templates AND a custom theme.
Once you modify the default theme, which if memory serves is just some CSS put in the a special folder under WEB-INF, and modify the Tiles templates, and new pages you have Roo auto-generate will inherit the new look-and-feel.
