ask the ux designers. they decide the look, not me, or anyone in the efl team.

as i mentioned. if you want to be fussy and make your own look you can! thats
what efl is good at! you can override and extend. you can override system
styles (themes) and extend with your own styles. you can try put the entry in a
frame. you coudl use new frame styles too. there is nothing i can do about the
ux design decied on for tizen.
