</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;
}
I'm trying to create the overall layout of a webapp. The app is full-screen and has a fixed header and three columns/panes. The center pane consists of two rows:
The panes should be resizable through dragging the pane edges with the mouse (see arrows in image above).
The individual panes have should have vertical scrollbars in case of overflowing content, that is, no global browser window scrollbar.
Using jQuery and jQuery UI Resizable, I've created this (partly working) JSFiddle.
HTML:
<div class="header">
Fixed header
</div>
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="inner-wrapper">
<div class="left pane">Left</div>
<div class="center pane">
<div class="inner">
<div class="top">Center top</div>
<div class="bottom">Center bottom</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="right pane">Right</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
.header {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
height: 20px;
background-color: moccasin;
}
.wrapper {
position:absolute;
top: 21px;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
background-color: fuchsia;
}
.inner-wrapper,
.center.pane .inner {
display: table;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.pane {
display: table-cell;
}
.left.pane {
background-color: olivedrab;
}
.center.pane {
background-color: lightblue;
}
.center.pane .inner .top,
.center.pane .inner .bottom{
display: table-row;
}
.center.pane .inner .top {
background-color: lightcoral;
}
.center.pane .inner .bottom {
background-color: orange;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
.right.pane {
background-color: #999;
}
JavaScript:
$(function () {
$(".left.pane").resizable({
handles: "e, w"
});
$(".right.pane").resizable({
handles: "e, w"
});
$(".center.pane .inner .bottom").resizable({
handles: "n, s"
});
});
It has several issues, including:
When resizing Left, Right is also resized (which it shouldn't)
When resizing Left towards full width, Center content is hidden under Right
When resizing Right the wrapper (Fuchsia-colored) is partly visible
Center bottom is resized through the top of the Center top, not through it's own top
I'm aware of the jQuery Layout plugin, but as far as I can see, it doesn't offer quite the layout I'm after. Also, I want to keep it as simple as possible.
Furthermore, I have tried Methvins splitter plugin, but couldn't get it to work.
My question:
Any suggestions for how to create a layout as in the image from jQuery UI Resizable and what I have in the JSFiddle?
There are more appropriate plugins, based on jQuery to obtain what you want.
OPTION 1:
I personally used in a my project UI Layout.
It is an almost old project (6 years ago), but in mid-2014 its development is re-started, even if there are no more information after september 2014.
Actually, last stable version is 1.4.3, released in sept '14. New website is:
https://github.com/allpro/layout/
OPTION 2:
If you need a more complete solution, you could think about jEasy UI, that is a complete framework that
[...] helps you build your web pages easily
It is a sort of replacement of jQuery UI, with some similar widgets (dialogs, accordions, ...) and something exclusive, like Layout module, already linked in my answer.
OPTION 3:
Analogue solution to the previous one, is Zino UI, another complete UI framework that has a specific component dedicated to "Split Layout"
OPTION 4:
jQWidgets is another library, with similar purposes of previous ones, and specifically could be interesting jqxSplitter module.
Related alternative (similar):
There is also another alternative, that allows to slice panels in the browser windows but in addition allows to drag&drop single panels creating different tabs, and side-by-side sub-windows.
This is called Golden Layout. It's different from previous ones, for many reasons also more powerful but surely at the moment it has not Touch support...
There were a few small problems that caused the behaviour that you don't like.
These were fixed in this Fiddle
The problems were:
When resizing Left, Right is also resized (which it shouldn't)
Fixed by setting a initial width (in percent)
When resizing Left towards full width, Center content is hidden under Right
Couldn't reproduce
When resizing Right the wrapper (Fuchsia-colored) is partly
visible Center bottom is resized through the top of the Center top,
not through it's own top
Fixed by setting left to 0 during resize.
$(".right.pane").resizable({
handles: "e, w",
resize: function(event, ui) {
ui.position.left = 0;
}
});
Center bottom is resized through the top of the Center top, not through it's own top
This is due to that JQuery UI Resizable uses relative positioning which do not work in table cells. Fixed by adding a content div that handles the resize.
<div class="top pane">
<div class="top-content">Center top</div>
</div>
I found one which seems acceptable for this requirement, if you looking for something more minimalistic compared to jEasy UI. : )
http://w2ui.com/web/demo/layout
Also it's no dead project; Seems still active on github https://github.com/vitmalina/w2ui/, which is nice.
I'll give it a try. Just wanted to share this, to save others search time, hopefully.
i'm usign this plugin
with jquery
http://www.bramstein.com/projects/jlayout/jquery-plugin.html
I came up with the answer to this myself, although in the end it took me over a year of development! The result is a modern, responsive panel layout widget built using jQuery and jQuery UI widget factory.
http://www.silvercore.co.uk/widgets/propanellayout/
The best solution at the time the question was asked was undoubtedly jQuery UI.Layout, but over time that project has stagnated and the plugin does not work with jQuery 2. Despite the code being released on GitHub its fate is unknown, which makes using it as the foundation of a long term project questionable.
A few of the other links posted here are dead now and if you don't want or need a full application framework your choices are limited.
OK, hopefully my last edit. Went through a bunch of these, and ended up with jQuery UI layout.
Goldenlayout is nice, but you have to actually add the html in each pane through javascript. If you've got all your stuff in react components I guess this might be fine, but not for my use case.
jQuery UI layout seems to be pretty robust and was just updated in 2014.
You can use Gridstack
It's easy to use and powerful.
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
One of my service pages needs inner tabs.
I already use regular jQuery UI Tabs in the page and I would like to use a different styling for the inner tabs.
Many popular sites use inner tabs differently from the main tabs by using simple text for the tabs titles, a long underline beneath the titles and a down arrow to represent the selected tabs. (image attached).
Do you know how to style jQuery UI Tabs to place a down arrow when the tab is selected?
Oh you want to know how to create the triangle using css3. Well you can do this using css, however, your example above isn't completely possible only using css. You can't have a border on the triangle as it is created using borders.
You create the downward triangle like this
.arrow { width: 0;
height: 0;
border-left: 10px solid transparent;
border-right: 10px solid transparent;
border-top: 10px solid black;
}
I created what you are looking for in a fiddle.
http://jsfiddle.net/jessekinsman/Mn2sx/
However, if you want to create exactly what you have above, you could use custom icon font for the triangle then you could put a text-shadow on it and it could have a stroke.
However, that being said, if you want backward compatibility and the ability to add shadows and border to the triangle, an image is going to be your most compatible approach.
You could try adding some css to the class ui-tabs-active, something like what is shown on this website: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/style/csslibrary/item/css_triangle_arrow_divs/
Yes this is pretty easy by just styling the li element with the class="active"
Something like this
.tabs {
border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
}
.tabs li.active {
border-bottom: 1px solid #fff;
padding: 5px;
background: url(../images/arrow.png) 5px 50%;
}
The above is just sample code to give you an idea. You will have to tweak the image values to get the arrow image to line up properly.
However, I think your question might be more involved.
Are you asking how to style two separate jQuery tabs that exist on the same page with a different style?
If that is the case, I would recommend wrapping one of the styles in a element with a unique class or id. Like this:
<div class="new-tabs">
<ul class="tabs">
<li>Tab1</li>
</ul>
</div>
Then you can copy all the styling from the tabs.css (I can't remember the exact name of the css file at the present time) and add the class or id before all those rules. Like this
.tab li { something.... }
.new-tabs .tab li {something...}
Walaa, you now have a completely separate set of styles for the tabs within the container.
I would recommend working through the styles you just copied and deleting what you don't need.
I would like to move position a bit to the left of my jQuery UI suggestion list. Here function and everything work very fine
Unfortunately I have no idea how to move that list a bit to left align left about 10px the page is responsive that is why scared that how to move left.
I think this is the documentation: http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Autocomplete/autocomplete.
You can set the style in this class
.ui-menu .ui-menu-item a.ui-state-hover, .ui-menu .ui-menu-item a.ui-state-active
{
margin-left: -10px !important;
}
Try adding this in your CSS and not in the jQuery-ui CSS file
you can add margin-left: -11px; in to the list DIV
