UI Graphics : Design : Common Elements

Revision as of 12:50, 3 February 2007 by Kpeter.ca.ibm.com (Talk | contribs)

Return to the main UI Graphics section on the UI Best Practices page.


The Common Elements section provides a library of graphical elements that have already been developed for Eclipse-based tools. This extensive selection of common elements provides not only a base for creating new icons and wizard graphics, but for reusing existing ones as they are. Used in conjunction with the core concepts shown in the Consistency & Reuse section, this library will enable efficient creation of graphical elements and promote consistency throughout the user interface.
