Scrolling 2 lists with 1 scroller Flex 4 - actionscript

Been trying to scroll 2 lists with their native scrollers disabled with 1 scroller added to the right of them.
I tried setting the viewport of each List as the scroller and while that works it just instantiates the scroller to each of the Lists rather than use 1.
Essentially i'm trying to have them scroll vertically at the same time while dragging only 1 scrollbar thumb.

I thought this was an interesting question and did a little investigation. Here is what I came up with.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
initialize="application1_initializeHandler(event)"
creationComplete="application1_creationCompleteHandler(event)">
<fx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import flashx.textLayout.container.ScrollPolicy;
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
[Bindable] private var dp:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();
protected function application1_initializeHandler(event:FlexEvent):void
{
//Add some dummy content
for (var i:int=0; i<20; i++){
dp.addItem("Test Item " + i);
}
//Turn off vertical scrolling for the two lists
list1.scroller.setStyle("verticalScrollPolicy", ScrollPolicy.OFF);
list2.scroller.setStyle("verticalScrollPolicy", ScrollPolicy.OFF);
}
protected function vScroll_changeHandler(event:Event):void
{
//Set the maximum of the one scroll bar to equal the maximum value of the hidden scroll bar
vScroll.maximum = list1.scroller.verticalScrollBar.maximum;
//Set the scroll position of the two hidden scroll bars to the value of the visible bar
list1.scroller.verticalScrollBar.value = vScroll.value;
list2.scroller.verticalScrollBar.value = vScroll.value;
}
protected function application1_creationCompleteHandler(event:FlexEvent):void
{
//Initialize the maximum value to the value of the hidden scroll bar after data has been loaded
vScroll.maximum = list1.scroller.verticalScrollBar.maximum;
}
]]>

Vaadin: TextArea scrolling doesn't work

I have something similar to this code:
TextArea textArea = new TextArea();
textArea.setSizeFull();
Panel dataPanel = new Panel("Panel", textArea);
dataPanel.setSizeFull();
textArea.setValue(... some very long text...);
The problem is that this TextArea appears without vertical scrollbar (and mouse-wheel scrolling also doesn't work), although inner text is longer than TextArea height (I can navigate lower using cursor and keyboard down arrow).
How do I enable scrolling in this component?
A bit weird, but as per the documentation if you disable word-wrapping in a text-area, you'll get the vertical scroll-bar:
Word Wrap
The setWordwrap() sets whether long lines are wrapped ( true - default) when the line length reaches the width of the writing area. If the word wrap is disabled (false), a vertical scrollbar will appear instead. The word wrap is only a visual feature and wrapping a long line does not insert line break characters in the field value; shortening a wrapped line will undo the wrapping.
The following code sample illustrates this behaviour with Vaadin 8.0.6. Please note my class extends Panel to match your sample but at this point you can eliminate it:
public class PanelWithScrollableTextField extends Panel {
public PanelWithScrollableTextField() {
TextArea textArea = new TextArea();
textArea.setWordWrap(false);
textArea.setSizeFull();
setContent(textArea);
setSizeFull();
StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
IntStream.range(1, 100).forEach(value -> buffer.append(value).append("\r\n"));
textArea.setValue(buffer.toString());
}
}
Result:
P.S. I know it's a bit weird to grasp, but panels are used to scroll surfaces that are larger then the panel size, so if we'd get it working, you'd be scrolling the text area itself, not its content. You can see below a sample to better understand what I mean:
public class PanelWithScrollableTextField extends Panel {
public PanelWithScrollableTextField() {
TextArea textArea = new TextArea();
textArea.setWordWrap(false);
textArea.setHeight("500px"); // fixed size with height larger than the panel
setContent(textArea);
setHeight("100px"); // fixed height smaller than the content so we get a scroll bar
StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
IntStream.range(1, 100).forEach(value -> buffer.append(value).append("\r\n"));
textArea.setValue(buffer.toString());
}
}
Result:
You can change it CSS also like below .
.v-textarea { overflow-y: auto ! important;}

How can I put a ListView inside a ScrollView using React Native iOS?

I'm building an iOS React Native app. I have some test content and then a list of items below it. If I put both the text content and the listview inside a scrollview the listview does't work properly (only shows some of the items) but if I don't put the listview inside the scrollview, the listview scrolls but the text content stays locked to the top of the screen. How do I get the text content to scroll with the listview?
Here's an example of my issue:
https://rnplay.org/apps/GWoFWg
You should render the top content using the ListView.renderHeader prop:
class SampleApp extends React.Component {
_renderHeader() {
// your header rendering code here
}
_renderRow() {
// your row rendering code here
}
render() {
return (
<ListView
renderRow={this._renderRow}
renderHeader={this._renderHeader}
/>
);
}
}
ListView uses ScrollView internally to provide the scrolling behaviour, so wrapping it in another ScrollView is not necessary.

How do I get my highcharts to reduce in size when the window is resized down

I'm having trouble getting my highchart to reduce in size when the window is resized down.
I have created an example of my code in JSFiddle http://jsfiddle.net/britboy/UvFaQ/
<table border='1' width='100%'><tr><td width='100%'>
<div id="container" width='100%'></div>
</td></tr></table>
Its a simple Highchart chart displayed in a table - if I make the window bigger the chart expands, however if I make the window smaller the chart doesn't want to reduce instead the table gets scroll bars.
I've tried setting up a resize event and then adjusting the chart size with chart.setSize( ) but the problem is the div containing the chart never reduces any further in size, so the setSize() does not get triggered. Since the chart resizes automatically when the chart container gets bigger I would have though the same should work when the chart gets smaller. I think the problem is that the chart's size is preventing its container from shrinking.
How do I code a chart in a table that will reduce in size when the table is reduced?
Thanks
There are n number of ways to accomplish it.
One would be as pointed out by #Azeem. in the comment.
Other way, I actually, bind it with window. Whenever the window re-sizes, bind event would trigger a function to re-size the div element used to render the chart.
$(window).bind("resize", resizeChart);
then,
function resizeChart() {
var width = $(document).width() - 55;
var height = $(document).height() - 60;
$("#container").css("width", width);
$("#container").css("height", height);
}
Check out the sample fiddle here.
Try this method :
var chart = $('#graph1').highcharts();
var DetailsWidth = $('#graph1');
http://jsfiddle.net/cjohn/5ghzk4t8/4/
[Adding a solution for react-highcharts here, because this pops up as first SO solution when searching for "react-highcharts shrink" on Google]
For react-highcharts you can simply call the React Component forceUpdate() method in the window resize event listener. It will trigger Highcharts to redraw to the new, smaller area. See also Rerender view on browser resize with React
NOTE: my code was tested using flex-auto (see CSS Flexible Box Layout) in the parent and the Highcharts DOM elements. It would be interesting to know if this works for other layouts too.
import React from 'react';
import Highcharts from 'react-highcharts';
...
export default class Chart extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
...
// install callbacks
this.resize = () => {
// throttle resize events as redraw is expensive
if (this.timeout)
return;
this.timeout = setTimeout(
() => {
// force Highcharts to always adhere
// to changes in the view area
this.forceUpdate();
this.timeout = undefined;
},
50); // milliseconds
};
...
}
...
componentDidMount() {
...
// listen to window resize events
window.addEventListener('resize', this.resize);
...
}
...
componentWillUnmount() {
...
// remove listener when component goes away
window.removeEventListener('resize', this.resize);
if (this.timeout) {
clearTimeout(this.timeout);
this.timeout = undefined;
}
...
}
...
render() {
...
return (
<Highcharts
config={...}
domProps={{
className: 'd-flex flex-auto',
...
}}
...
/>
);
}
...
}

Preventing flexcroll on event

What I have currently is a very simple div that has a flexcroll scroll bar. This simple div contains some draggable itmes inside of it. My goal is to be able to drag one of the items and and move it about without the flexcroll scroll bar moving.
As it stands right now if I were to drag one of the items below the viewable area the simple div will scroll down. I would like to prevent this.
I'm using jQuery UI for the draggable items. I've already tried using the option "scroll:false" but this does not work for flexcroll.
I'm sorry I don't have any example code, I'm currently away from my work computer.
flexcroll: http://www.hesido.com/web.php?page=customscrollbar
I don't know if you have already resolved this problem. This morning, I have the same problem and I found your post. After that, I have googled a lot to find a solution without any lucky. So finally, I decided to do someting myself, I hope my idea will help you.
After read the Programming Guid, I found that in this version (2.0) of flexcroll, we could register a function for onfleXcroll whose description could be found by searching the keyword "Pseudo-event: onfleXcroll". This is to say that the method will be executed after a scroll is done. So here, what I restore the "top" style with the value before you drag an element.
Here are the code
var $assetswrapper; // This variable indicates the contentwrapper of you div.
var $assetsscrollbar; // This variable indicates the vscroller of you div.
window.onfleXcrollRun = function () { // This method will be executed as soon as the div has been rendered with the help of flexcroll
// You could find these two divs by using firebug, because the top value of these two divs will be changed when we scroll the div which use the class .flexcroll.
$assetswrapper = $('#contentwrapper');
$assetsscrollbar = $('#vscrollerbar');
}
var wrapperTopPosition = 0; // This is used to stock the top value of the wrapperContent before dragging.
var scrollbarTopPosition = 0; // This is used to stock the top value of the scrollbar before dragging.
var dragged; // This is a boolean variable which is used for indicating whether the draggable element has been dragged.
var dropped = false; // This is a boolean variable which used to say whether the draggable element has been dropped.
$('.draggable').draggable({ // you could change .draggable with any element.
start: function (event, ui) {
// Your code here.
wrapperTopPosition = $assetswrapper.position().top;
scrollbarTopPosition = $assetsscrollbar.position().top
dragged = true;
},
stop: function (event, ui) {
// Your code here.
dragged = false;
dropped = true;
}
});
$('your drag div')[0].onfleXcroll = function () { // This method will be called each time when a scroll has been done.
if (dragged) {
$assetswrapper.css('top', wrapperTopPosition);
$assetsscrollbar.css('top', scrollbarTopPosition);
} else {
// Code here is used for keeping the top position as before even though you have dragged an element out of this div for a long time.
// You could test the scrollbar without this piece of code, if you drag an element out of the div for a long time, the scrollbar will keep its position,
// but after you dropped this element and try to scroll the div, then the scrollbar will reach the end of the div. To solve this problem,
// I have introduced the method setScrollPos with the old top position plus 72. 72 here is to set the scroll increment for this scroll, I know
// this value is not fit for any size of windows, but I don't know how to get the scroll-increment automatically.
if (dropped) {
dropped = false;
$('your drag div')[0].fleXcroll.setScrollPos(false, Math.abs(wrapperTopPosition) + 72);
$('your drag div')[0].fleXcroll.setScrollPos(false, Math.abs(wrapperTopPosition) + 72);
}
}
};
I hope this could give you a help if you haven't found any solution yet.

Tooltips (Titles) in XUL browser content are not working?

I'm developing an extension for FireFox. I use a XUL deck element that contains a XUL browser element. Unfortunately, whenever the page displayed in the browser has an HTML title attribute, the value of this title attribute will not show up as a tooltip.
How can I get tooltips to display correctly?
There is no mechanism to automatically display title attributes in tooltips - the browser window has special code for that and you need to replicate this code in your extension. This means that you need to define a <tooltip> element, e.g.:
<popupset>
<tooltip id="browserTooltip" onpopupshowing="return fillTooltip(this);"/>
</popupset>
You should use this tooltip in your <browser> element, like this:
<browser tooltip="browserTooltip"/>
And you should create a fillTooltip() function that will be called whenever your tooltip shows up. It will need to look at the HTML element that the mouse pointer hovers over, check its title attribute and put the value of the attribute into the tooltip. The function performing this job in Firefox is FillInHTMLTooltip() though you might want to go with a simpler variant like this (untested code):
function fillTooltip(tooltip)
{
// Walk up the DOM hierarchy until we find something with a title attribute
var node = document.tooltipNode;
while (node && !node.hasAttribute("title"))
node = node.parentNode;
// Don't show tooltip if we didn't find anything
if (!node)
return false;
// Fill in tooltip text and show it
tooltip.setAttribute("label", node.getAttribute("title"));
return true;
}
I found the solution for those who are interested, it's by adding a tooltip property to the XUL browser element with the following value:
tooltip="aHTMLTooltip"
Or adding it programmatically using javascript like this:
browser.setAttribute('tooltip','aHTMLTooltip');

<?xml-stylesheet href="chrome://global/skin" type="text/css"?>
<window id="mainWindow" xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul" title="NanoFL" width="800" height="600" persist="screenX screenY width height sizemode">

{

{

{
tooltip.setAttribute("label", nodes[i].getAttribute("title"));
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
]]>
</script>
<browser id="browser" src="chrome://nanofl/content/index.html" flex="1" disablehistory="true" tooltip="browserTooltip" />
<tooltip id="browserTooltip" onpopupshowing="return fillTooltip(this)"/>
