Modify Font Size CSS

Absolute font sizing does not scale well with a responsive theme.

Therefore I, removed all the absolute font-size = XXpx; attributes from all the files in the styles folder and left alone the font size attributes that use relative XXem for font sizing.

Create Custom Buttons

Edit the following file:

 nano $HOME/source/dspace-xmlui-mirage2/src/main/webapp/styles/classic_mirage_color_scheme/_bootstrap_variables.scss

Go to the bottom of the file and add the following:

/**
* Buttons CSS
**/

$btn-font-weight:                normal !default;

$btn-default-color:              #333 !default;
$btn-default-bg:                 #fff !default;
$btn-default-border:             #ccc !default;

$btn-primary-color:              #fff !default;
$btn-primary-bg:                 $brand-primary !default;
$btn-primary-border:             darken($btn-primary-bg, 5%) !default;

$btn-success-color:              #fff !default;
$btn-success-bg:                 $brand-success !default;
$btn-success-border:             darken($btn-success-bg, 5%) !default;

$btn-info-color:                 #fff !default;
$btn-info-bg:                    $brand-info !default;
$btn-info-border:                darken($btn-info-bg, 5%) !default;

$btn-warning-color:              #fff !default;
$btn-warning-bg:                 $brand-warning !default;
$btn-warning-border:             darken($btn-warning-bg, 5%) !default;

$btn-danger-color:               #fff !default;
$btn-danger-bg:                  $brand-danger !default;
$btn-danger-border:              darken($btn-danger-bg, 5%) !default;

$btn-link-disabled-color:        $gray-light !default;
