Vaadin OptionGroup caption location - vaadin

I am trying to get an OptionGroup to have the labels next to them, on the right hand side like normal radio buttons in every other UI I have ever used, instead of underneath them. I do not see anything in the API regarding how to change the layout of this? Anyone point me in the correct direction?

Follow these steps:
Add these lines to your css
.v-select-optiongroup-horizontal .v-select-option {
display: inline-block;
}
.v-select-optiongroup-horizontal {
white-space: nowrap;
}
.v-select-optiongroup-horizontal
.v-select-option.v-radiobutton {
padding-right: 10px;
}
And call
group.setStyleName("horizontal");
where group is the OptionGroup object.

Is it possible that you inherited some styles that display the text like that?
Did you try to call hzl.setSizeUndefined()? Or maybe playing with the width (setWidth()).

Xpages NamePicker dialog alignment and width

<xe:namePicker id="npUserNames" for="hdnUserNames">
<xe:this.dataProvider>
<xe:dominoViewNamePicker viewName="Techs"></xe:dominoViewNamePicker>
</xe:this.dataProvider>
</xe:namePicker>
The Names in the left box of the dialog are center aligned. Same with the right (selected values) box.
I have tried text-align: left css in every possible surrounding element...The table cell, the table it is in, the surrounding div tag, the panel, the layout, the entire xpage. And the content of the namepicker dialog is still centered. How do I fix that? How can I specify the width of the dialog box?
Also, in IE11, the "X" button does not work. Nothing happens when you click it.
I'd recommend interrogating the HTML generated using your browser's developer tools to see if there's a class defined for the relevant HTML tags that you can override. If so, you can use that. If not, you may need to create your own Renderer or extension of the Name Picker to generate different HTML. That will be more complicated, but the trade-off of any framework is limited configurability at the cost of quicker development.
I'm not doing exactly what Withers suggested, but it did lead me to a solution based on a comment somewhere else.
I added a class dojo attribute and assigned a new css class to it. Only issue is that it is shifting everything in the dialog to the left...but it's ok for now.
<xe:this.dojoAttributes>
<xp:dojoAttribute name="class" value="namePickerClass">
</xp:dojoAttribute>
</xe:this.dojoAttributes>
CSS:
.namePickerClass { margin: 0 auto; width: 50%; text-align:left; border: 1px solid blue; scrolling: none;
}

How can I make a specific row unselectable in a Vaadin Grid with a mult-selection model?

I'm trying to disable the checkbox on a specific row based on some property of it's Bean (or just make the whole row generally unselectable), but I can't really see any method or property I could use to get a handle of the checkboxes on the left hand side added when using a multi-selection model or something as broad as disabling the whole row. Any thoughts on how this could be achieved, or where I should be looking?
You can use CSS to hide uncheckable rows. First set their styles using setRowStyleGenerator:
grid.setRowStyleGenerator(row -> {
boolean uncheckable = (Boolean)
row.getItem().getItemProperty("uncheckable").getValue();
return uncheckable ? "uncheckable-row" : "";
});
Then change styles in your .scss, they should look something like:
.v-grid-row.uncheckable-row td {
background: #b1b9d6 none repeat scroll 0 0;
}
.v-grid-row.uncheckable-row td:first-child {
visibility: hidden;
}
.v-grid-row.uncheckable-row.v-grid-row-selected > .v-grid-cell {
background-image: none;
border-color: #d4d4d4;
color: inherit;
text-shadow: inherit;
}
Here I hide the whole cell with checkbox (if hiding the content of td itself, user will still be available to select the row), use a different color for these rows and prevent them from being highlighted when "select all" checkbox is active. Surely, further styling is available. Since we only hide them from user, they still can be selected with grid.select() and located in grid.getSelectedRows() collection, you should filter them manually (by using some "uncheckable" property, as shown above).
It is not possible to disable checkbox on a specific row.
One solution is to use generated column and/or custom renderer.
if you are using twitter bootstrap as your responsive framework, you should be able to find that row and give it a class of ".inactive", and if that doesn't work you can always rig it but placing and absolute positioned box with a height and width of 100% inside of that row and z-index it to at least 250. That should make everything in that row un-clickable!

Vaadin label content too big

I have this piece of code
private VaadinLabel email,
this.email = new VaadinLabel();
this.informativoDab = new VaadinLabel();
HorizontalLayout row = new HorizontalLayout();
row.setWidth("100%");
row.addComponent(this.email);
row.addComponent(this.informativoDab);
And it gives me this:
When I actually want this:
It should be simple to do, but I've tried doing
this.email.setWidth("50%");
and it didn't work.
How can I do this with Vaadin Label, since I also need a hint to show the entire e-mail?
You should actually use "100%" as the label size as it should take all the space the layout gives for it, half in this case.
By default Vaadin will then wrapt the text on multiple lines. IIRC there isn't a built in css style name to do it, so you'll need to use CSS to disable wrapping and use the ellipsis to visualise overflown text. You could e.g. use "cut_text" style name (email.addStyleName("cut_text")) for your email label along with following css rules to your theme:
.cut_text {
white-space: nowrap;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
overflow: hidden;
}
as #mstahv mentioned, add a style name to your label
email.addStyleName("cut_text");
and use that css he wrote
.cut_text {
white-space: nowrap;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
as for the whole email to be displayed, I would suggest adding a description. Then when user hovers the hidden email it will popup in a small tooltip.
email.setDescription("very_long#email.com");

Contao: Teasers in dropdown navigation

I need to make a dropdown navigation, where for every parent navigation item, in the dropdown area I show the child pages + 3 images with a title linked to other pages.
I would need something like the 'Custom Navigation' module with an option to select images (or add a custom class, and get the image from the page).
Is there an extension which I could use for this? If not, would be easier/faster to change/extend a core module, or should I create a new one?
Thanks!
EXAMPLE ('Kollektion' menu-item hovered. The gray area is the submenu container)
I don't know of an extension that would allow including an image to a specific link in a navigation menu. But if you are willing to do it with CSS styles, here's how I would do it:
Any page can have multiple custom CSS classes and they do apply to the navigation (unless the navigation template has been changed in such a way that they don't anymore). The place where you enter these CSS classes is at the bottom of the Edit page view, under expert settings. Add any CSS classes you want and then edit the style sheet to make them look right.
If the three pages are not supposed to be subpages for the current page, but lead somewhere else, you can use the "Internal redirect" page type for them.
The CSS could be something like this in addition to your regular styling:
.level_2 li {
float: left;
clear: left; /* this is to stack them on top of one another*/
}
.level_2 li.special_class {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
}
.level_2 li.special_class:before {
display: block;
content: '';
width: /* the intended image width */
height: /* the intended image height */
}
.level_2 li.special_class.foo {
background-image: url('foo');
}
.level_2 li.special_class.bar {
background-image: url('bar');
}
...
Please remember that this isn't supposed to be a complete solution, but rather a principle upon which you can build your own. You may want to add backwards compatibility to older browsers (or not), etc.
I think there is an extension to allow you do that. check this link Navigation with images
and may be this one also Navigations-Bild
Either of this should give you what you want but with a little styling

jQuery UI Autocomplete Width issue

please see this http://jsfiddle.[net]/Nkkzg/108/ (SO doesn't allow to like to JsFiddle) and write 'Apple' in auto-complete text box. You can see a long string appears and with that page's horizontal scroll bar also appear which is very annoying.
I want to show the full string as a result without setting the width, You can see autocomplete results div shows from the left corner to maximum right depending on string length. How can we show the results in the center of page like input textbox, so that horizontal scroll bar shouldn't appear.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards.
According to this article:
jQuery UI Autocomplete Width Not Set Correctly
It looks as though you need to place everything in a container and specify the appendTo property telling it where to put the menu.
You should try to use position:absolute
.ui-autocomplete {
max-height: 200px;
overflow-y: auto;
/* prevent horizontal scrollbar */
overflow-x: hidden;
border:1px solid #222;
position:absolute;
}
Live Demo
You could try to put this in your .css file
span input.ui-autocomplete-input {
width: 100%;
}
In that way the autocomplete get's the width you have style it to according to the styleClass that is on the enclosing span tag
