How to use md-chips in line - angular-material

I'm trying to use the md-chips directive of angular material in a single line, but when I add more chips than size of a field, the field add a line to bottom like in this image.

I think you need a CSS workaround to adapt the behaviour of md-chips in an input form.
For example you can use this CSS:
/* reduce input element (not visible till the user begins editing) width */
.md-chips .md-chip-input-container input {
max-width: 20px;
}
/* adapt input to md-chip height */
.myheight {
height: 49px !important;
}
/* adapt datepicker input to md-chip height */
.md-datepicker-input {
height: 49px;
}
Here is a demo: http://codepen.io/beaver71/pen/gPqPBW
P.S.: don't forget that docs declare:
Warning: This component is a WORK IN PROGRESS. If you use it now, it will probably break on you in the future.

Make Angular Material mat-select automatically take width of its selected option

How do I make automatically take width according to its selected option's width? I've looked through the API of mat-select, and was not able to find an option/input for this.
Just sharing a solution to the problem. Here's how (turn ViewEncapsulation off or prepend these selectors with ::ng-deep):
.mat-select-value {
max-width: max-content !important; // <= SOLUTION HERE...
}
.mat-form-field-infix {
width: fit-content !important; // <= and HERE...
}
Playground with this fix
My Solution is something mixed with this answer.
I took his code and modified it a bit, then in my Angular App I put the class into the styles.scss (This will be the outer most scss/css file you can find). And it works without ::ng-deep
This is my solution:
.mat-form-field-infix {
width: fit-content !important;
min-width: 200px !important;
}
This solution is not very flexible though, thats why I would suggest you calculate the width in your script and set the elements width to that. it would look something like this:
HTML:
<mat-form-field [style.width.px]="setSizeOfDropDown(16)">
Typescript:
setSizeOfDropDown(fontSize:number):number{
let width: number = minWidth; //This is so that we dont have any codesmells
return fontSize * myOptionsArr.reduce((a,b)=>{
a.length>b.length?a:b; //I used the shorthand if because it looks very clean
}).length
I multiplied the fontSize with the length of the longest string in the Array. and that is my Select width.

How to change the default position of button tooltips in CKEditor 5

Having a small issue with tooltips in the editor, read the api but can't understand what it is saying and I can't seem to find examples anywhere that I can understand either.
I have set up a Classic Editor build, and all the buttons on the toolbar have tooltips with the default position below the button, I want to be able, just for this one instance of the editor, to change the tooltip position to above the buttons instead. The instance is set up like this:
ClassicEditor.create( document.querySelector( '#content' ) )
.then( editor => {
console.log( 'Editor was initialized', editor );
this.annEditorInstance = editor;
} )
.catch( err => {
console.error( err.stack );
} );
That creates an editor instance that is set up exactly as I want, except for the issue with the tooltip. How do I change this? Thanks in advance.
There are two approaches to the problem:
CSS
Tooltips elements have either .ck-tooltip_s or .ck-tooltip_n class. By default all CKEditor 5 tooltips have the former so you could override it in your styles and make it act like the later:
<style>
.ck.ck-tooltip.ck-tooltip_s {
bottom: auto;
top: calc(-1 * var(--ck-tooltip-arrow-size));
transform: translateY( -100% );
}
.ck.ck-tooltip.ck-tooltip_s .ck-tooltip__text::after {
top: auto;
bottom: calc(-1 * var(--ck-tooltip-arrow-size));
transform: translateX( -50% );
border-color: var(--ck-color-tooltip-background) transparent transparent transparent;
border-width: var(--ck-tooltip-arrow-size) var(--ck-tooltip-arrow-size) 0 var(--ck-tooltip-arrow-size);
}
</style>
JS
The UI of the editor is an MVC(VM) structure. The position of the tooltip can be controlled using the JS and the Button#tooltipPosition property ('s' or 'n').
E.g. you can access the toolbar UI elements using editor.ui.view.toolbar and change their properties:
editor.ui.view.toolbar.items.map( item => item.tooltipPosition = 'n' )
but note that not all toolbar items are buttons. Some, for instance, are dropdowns so you'd need to use item.buttonView.tooltipPosition = 'n' in that case. So unless you really want to use JS, I'd go with a simple CSS solution.

Mat-select panel min-width

I'm trying to customize mat-select with multiple checkboxes.
for some reason the panel get wrong min-width as below:
and I don't know where its calculating this min-width.
also I tried to add panelClass and override the min-width from this class,
for example:
<mat-select #multipleSelect (selectionChange)="selectItem($event.value)" panelClass="multiple-panel" multiple>
&.multiple-panel {
min-width: 200px !important;
}
but when opening the dropdown its open with the original width (like in the pic) and after few millisecond"jump" to the custom min-width defined on the panel class.
I find the mat-select very hard to style. anybody knows how to solve this problem?
You can style your mat-select dialog box by giving a panel class (as you mentioned).
Please follow this demo : https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-matselect-style?file=src/styles.css
to see the styled mat-select components.
Reason :
Reason for the delay is that angular for dialog-boxes, create a cdk-overlay-pane inside the cdk-overlay-container container, So in case of mat-select it provides a min-width of 180px, which is overridden by our panel class in the slight delay.
Yes, there is a slight delay in opening of dialog box and customizing its width to the specified width provided in the panel class. But the delay is acceptable in the project that i was working on. So, you can find the demo for styling the mat-select component, as i have provided 2 components and you can modify any css properties.
Try to use styles using ::ng-deep or :host >>>, if not finding any luck, please paste the styles in style.css.
Update 1 :
Tried css animations, and opacity for making smooth opening of the mat-select options.
.panel-class-applied-on-mat-select {
animation-name: opacityDelay !important;
animation-duration: 0.3s !important;
}
#keyframes opacityDelay {
0% {opacity: 0;}
25% {opacity: 0;}
50% {opacity: 0;}
75% {opacity: 0;}
100% {opacity: 1;}
}
Updated StackBlitz Demo
I used another approach.
Just added this piece of code to global style.
.mat-select-panel {
// some your code
&.ng-animating {
visibility: hidden;
}
}
You can try this solution on
DEMO StackBlitz.
Hack with opacity did not fix jumping width when select is closing.
You'll need to change viewEncapsulation to none at your component decorator.and then add following css to remove the transition effect.Have a look at viewencapsulation in angular docs https://angular.io/guide/component-styles#view-encapsulation.
#Component({
selector: 'app-selector',
templateUrl: './template.html',
styleUrls: ['./template.css'],
encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})
//CSS
.cdk-overlay-connected-position-bounding-box .cdk-overlay-pane .mat-select-panel.ng-animating {
display: none;
}
Try this way : define a panel class for your mat-select in the code and then in the global/app styling file just add:
.panel-class-name .mat-select-panel {
// add your styling here
}
It worked for me to add some component specific styling for material components.
Please go easy on me S.O. This is my first time contributing. :)
After debugging the console, and running into this issue. Solutions were not clear online. So I'm posting mine here in case someone else runs into this.
I found that there is a width permanently set for the infix class. If you unset it, and optionally add some padding to the right of the value, you'll find that will resolve the issue. Add :host for encapsulation when using ::ng-deep.
Important to Note: ::ng-deep is being permanently deprecated after Angular v14.
There is a property in the #Component() annotation called encapsulation which can be used to turn off the view encapsulation for the component instead of using ::ng-deep.
Solution for the deprecation of ::ng-deep:
#Component({
selector: 'app-selector-name',
template: `<div>Hello World!</div>`,
encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None,
styles: [
`
:host mat-form-field .mat-form-field-infix {
width: unset;
}
:host mat-form-field .mat-select-value {
padding-right: 0.5rem; /* 8px */
/* Alternatively, for TailwindCSS: #apply pr-2 */
}
:host .random-class {
/* some encapsulated styling... */
}
.another-random-class {
/* some non-encapsulated styling... */
}
`
]
})
Solution if you do not care about the deprecation of ::ng-deep:
:host ::ng-deep mat-form-field .mat-form-field-infix {
width: unset;
}
:host ::ng-deep mat-form-field .mat-select-value {
padding-right: 0.5rem; /* 8px */
}

Textarea additional rows transition effect

I have a code to add additional rows to my #moo textarea:
$('#moo').focus(function(){
$(this).attr('rows', '4');
});
So when I focus the textarea gets higher. Is there any way to animate it? (css transition seems to fail this one).
Use the height and transition css attributes.
textarea {
height: 50px;
transition: 1s
}
<textarea onclick="event.target.style.height=120px">

How to remove rounded corners from one jQuery UI widget but not the others?

My particular problem is that I want the autocomplete function to not have round corners, but all the other widgets that have round corners should.
Is there a parameter I can pass to disable the corners just for the autocomplete?
Edit
Let's see if this can be answered.
On page Datepicker.
I'd like to remove all round-corner classes from appearing (the header and the next-previous buttons).
$( "#datepicker" ).datepicker('widget').removeClass('ui-corner-all'); would not work.
Very late but here it goes:
jQuery UI widgets have a method, which returns the HTML node for the widget itself.
So the answer would be:
$('#someinput').autocomplete(...).autocomplete('widget').removeClass('ui-corner-all');
Responding to the EDIT:
As far I can see, you need to chain widget() method with autocomplete() (or datepicker()) method for it to work. Seems like it doesn't work for regular HTML nodes returned by $().
assign this css class to the element with corners of your widget.
.ui-corner-flat {
border-top-left-radius: 0px !important;
border-top-right-radius: 0px !important;
border-bottom-left-radius: 0px !important;
border-bottom-right-radius: 0px !important;
}
$("#elementwithcorners").addClass("ui-corner-flat");
to remove the bottom left radius
in the constructor I did this
$( "#signup" ).dialog(
{
create: function (event, ui) {
$(".ui-dialog").css('border-bottom-left-radius','0px');
},
}
);
The _suggest() method of the Autocomplete widget calls menu.refresh(), and therefore resets the ui-corner-all class for menu items, etc., each time the input changes. However, the open() callback is called after every menu.refresh() call within _suggest(), and so is a sensible place to adjust classes as desired:
$("#autocomplete").autocomplete("option", {
open: function(event, ui) {
$(this).autocomplete("widget")
.menu("widget").removeClass("ui-corner-all")
.find(".ui-corner-all").removeClass("ui-corner-all");
}
});
The Datepicker widget is a little tougher, as it's built to be sort of a semi-singleton. Here we need a monkey patch to do it consistently, since none of the supplied callback options is suitable:
// store the built-in update method on the "global" instance...
$.datepicker.__updateDatepicker = $.datepicker._updateDatepicker;
// ...and then clobber with our fix
$.datepicker._updateDatepicker = function(inst) {
$.datepicker.__updateDatepicker(inst);
inst.dpDiv.removeClass("ui-corner-all")
.find(".ui-corner-all").removeClass("ui-corner-all");
};
Note that the default _updateDatepicker() implementation has no return value. Also, note that the _updateDatepicker() method is not an interface method, so should not be assumed to be available. As such, the most consistent way to accomplish the corner fix is with appropriate CSS, along the lines of:
.ui-autocomplete.ui-menu.ui-corner-all,
.ui-autocomplete.ui-menu .ui-menu-item > a.ui-corner-all,
.ui-datepicker.ui-corner-all,
.ui-datepicker-header.ui-corner-all,
.ui-datepicker-next.ui-corner-all,
.ui-datepicker-prev.ui-corner-all {
border-radius: 0;
}
More specificity (or the !important directive) may be used to ensure these selectors are respected. This is exactly why jQuery uses theme classes – fudging these things in is an interesting hack, but it's the less clean option unless style is unavailable…
Create a new CSS class for the element you don't want rounded corners.
p.rounded { border-radius: 10px; }
p.none-rounded { border-radius: 0; }
