Actually you have not run into the linkrewritter problem. ;-)

Yeah, the design of this screenshot is based on scale-dev. This style
was submitted from some user and we started developing views with it.
Since I needed to get views running as a proof of concept I was not able
to tweak the scale-dev css in the same time as I enhanced the underlying
implementation. Sadly the user did not deliver any enhancement
either. :(

...but it is really easy to activate it again.=20

There is no leather-dev.fv in the default plugins. That means if you not
added it to your project you will see the default.fv.=20

I strongly recommend following as well:
http://forrest.apache.org/docs_0_80/howto/howto-view-install.html#available=
Contracts and add org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.viewHelper.xhtml.ls to th=
e required plugins.

You need to write a scale.fv. That is a structure file that you can use
to hook up the css of scale.=20

The basic css can be found:
http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/forrest/trunk/whiteboard/plugins/org.apac=
he.forrest.plugin.output.viewHelper.xhtml/resources/skin/css/default.scale-=
dev.css?view=3Dmarkup

The basic view:
http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/forrest/trunk/whiteboard/plugins/org.apac=
he.forrest.plugin.internal.structurer/resources/views/default.scale-dev.fv?=
view=3Dmarkup

Actually the above default.scale-dev.fv is way outdated and it is not
working anymore, but it shows you the basic forrest:hooks you will need.

Please read
http://forrest.apache.org/docs_0_80/howto/howto-view-dsl.html for a kick
start.
