Activiti Forms Help

Hi

I need to add a custom form with custom look and feel and layout, rather than the default provided by Activiti Explorer. How can I achieve this. The StartFormData and TaskFormData holds data but I need to render that data in a custom HTML / JSP or any other file with reference to the data in StartFormData or TaskFormData. How can I achieve a custom form embedded within Activiti Explorer. Is there any extension elements that can be used to refer to my JSP/HTML, so that it can be rendered.

I see references to the Form section in the user guide, but that does not say much about or provide a hello world example on how to do it.

Regards
Nirmal

No, that is no possible out of the box.
You would need a new vaadin component (http://www.jorambarrez.be/blog/2013/03/13/creating-a-new-form-property-in-activiti/) that would render your html (JSP will be tricky). But getting the data in and out the html will not be easy to do.
