Inconsistent Page/Panorama Headers #7

Closed akshay2000 closed 9 years ago

akshay2000 commented 10 years ago

Page and panorama headers (section of page containing 'app name + page title' or 'pivot header + pivot item header') are inconsistent with each other. Ideally, this section have same styling in all pages and pivots across the app.

The FontWeight of PivotItem headers are set to Bold, but I am seeing them as Regular while testing on the actual device. Do you know why is this happening?

akshay2000 commented 9 years ago

PivoteItem.Header might already have inherited style from the parent or something. Open that in blend and try 'Edit current' or 'Create empty' and see what happens. In short, resultant style is a combination of style applied by our code and the one applied by platform. Deal with this later. We need to fix #8 first.

I couldn't come up with something new for #8 . You can work on it based on the mockup I had sent to you a couple of days ago (only if you like it). You're quicker than me. :)

I'm not sure about quicker, but I'll implement that. Coming back to this issue: Frankly, the page titles look a little to 'fat' - less tall and more broad. On the other hand, font doesn't render so sharp for PivotItem headers. Something of a median is needed here.

AnaghSharma commented 9 years ago

I didn't get this. Could you be more specific? I am confused which page titles are you talking about.

akshay2000 commented 9 years ago

Headers - I meant page headers. Big 'connections' on the MainPage, for example. For all the pages are made bold with font size 40. That is too strong. On the other hand, headers of panorama items are weak. In the OS, panorama item's header looks exactly like the header of a page. Similar thing should be achieved.
