ShellBar & setTheme

[Qcyk]

Hello,

I have two questions:

1. Is it possible to add custom div to ShellBar component? ShellBarItem doesn't have possibility to add custom react element. We can add only icon.

2. setTheme doesn't cause re-render a children components in ThemeProvider. Method getTheme() is executed only once when component is rendering first time. Is it possible to force components that use getTheme() to re-render (without custom ThemeProvider)?

Regards,
Krzysztof

Hi @Qcyk

Is it possible to add custom div to ShellBar component? ShellBarItem doesn't have possibility to add custom react element. We can add only icon.

Unfortunately this is not supported, only ShellBarItems should be passed as children.

setTheme doesn't cause re-render a children components in ThemeProvider. Method getTheme() is executed only once when component is rendering first time. Is it possible to force components that use getTheme() to re-render (without custom ThemeProvider)?

All children of the ThemeProvider should update their style if setTheme is called and the theme changes. If this is not the case in your app, then this sounds like a bug to me. Here you can find a basic codeSandbox how changing themes should work.

If you want to register to a theme change, then there is currently no public API for that. If you feel like this should be available then please create a feature request in the ui5-webcomponents repo, because our colleagues there are responsible for all theming features.
