Hi
In VFP there is a shape widget that supports rounded corners and border styles and fill colors. It would be nice to have such a widget in Lianja.
Thanks,

The shape widget is already implemented. Have a look at the custom section in the lianjademo.
OTOH, if you create a label, you can set the CSS style which does this plus much more e.g gradient fill, border-radius etc.
All controls can be skinned by setting their CSS.
Until Lianja gets a built-in CSS editor (hint: 1.x :)), there are online CSS editors for doing things like that visually, and then getting the CSS as pasteable text. For example, http://www.css3maker.com/

We have not included all controls/widgets in the "Advanced" menu. Is the "Shape" that you want not possible using a label with CSS? What shape exactly are you thinking of?
The one I would use most often would be a box shape with/without rounded corners used to group related items together visually on the screen. I often used the VFP shape control for this purpose.
You should be able to use a label for that purpose together with CSS. We will look into it as well as the z-order to make it more useful.
