I am working on a reactJS application that uses ant design for the UI. Recently we released this application to production where the computers are pretty locked down. This application is an intranet application and these computers have no internet access. So, because of that, the ant design icons on the modals were showing up as empty boxes. I did some digging and saw that the icons are using CSS classes.
For example, this is the CSS class for the red error "X" on the error modal:
.anticon-cross-circle:before
{
content:"\E62E"
}
I'm not too familiar with the CSS content attribute so I went to www.w3schools.com and read up on it a bit and tested this particular content value on their Try It page for this attribute and I got the empty box that I got in my production environment.
Does anyone know what needs to be done to import these icons into my project so that they can be used offline?
Thanks
What I think is happening is that Ant Design is defining the CSS font definition with a URL to the corresponding font-file. Since the computers are offline, it cannot find those definitions.
In the documentation I see that they also provide SVG Icons, which should work completely offline. I think this is worth a try. The steps to implement this can be found here and it should be available from version 3.9.0: https://ant.design/components/icon/#SVG-icons
Have you tried downloading the icon library into your project folder?
https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design-icons/tree/master/packages/icons-react. Looks like they have assigned their own codes to their own icons so you'll need to have them offline.
You will nessd the css file tabler-icons.css and the woff file tabler-icons.woff and assign a font-family named tabler-icons within your style.css using #font-face

Hope you all doing great.
I am using SCSS and Bootstrap in my Angular Application and as we know once Angular app runs, it converts these SCSS files to CSS version of it.
How can I check CSS file size generated as a whole for application as I need to show some reports for optimization tasks.
Any idea. I tried googling and here on Stack Overflow but couldn't find required solution. I can't even see any CSS file in Network tabs of Browsers.
Any Suggestion?
Assuming you are using Angular CLI for your project, which uses webpack internally...
Once you build a project. A dist directory is generated in the project root. Take a look into it and you'll find all the .js and .css bundles it might have generated.
Note - The size will vary based on what kind of build you do. For a production build, the sizes are going to be minimal, for other kinds of builds, if any, the sizes may differ.
You should go first in the Networks tab then reload the page. Once you reload it, click on CSS filter then you would see all the list of CSS included in your app, with the file size.
I didnt find any css generated in Network like above answer but I did a trick.
I went to webpack folder and there I found one generated CSS. ( Searched through a random CSS Selecto ).
I right clicked and saved it on desktop. If you check the properties of this CSS file, it shows the size in KB.
I'm trying to add a SVG into my webpage, I think the format is a bit odd.
https://gist.github.com/Vadorequest/c329dec26e39a586e96df5f74c1d7d29?short_path=d29c6c9 (you can see the source code and the rendering there)
The style part isn't correctly understood since I'm loading this file using React. If you save the file and open it in a browser, it'll work fine. But if I load it by react using react-svg-loader, it displays a dark image.
import IconBook from "-!react-svg-loader!../assets/couverture-eBook-VF.svg";
...
<IconBook height={250} />
Is it standard to put the style like this? Should I get a new SVG exported differently? I really don't know that format and all its possibilities.
Edit 1:
I found a working workaround for anyone interested: https://github.com/gilbarbara/react-inlinesvg
It basically loads the svg file over network and anything in it will be correctly loaded. (including <styles>)
On the bad side, it makes the app rely on something that must be available via CDN or alike. (you won't have the svg embedded in your app. If you wanted some kind of standalone app that can be built with everything in it, it's not really good)
On the good side, it doesn't require any change in the SVG file, you use it as it, load it over network, and it displays as in the browser.
Since I'm building a standalone app (basically, npm run build will generate a folder with my whole app) this isn't perfect because I need to host that file somewhere on a CDN. So I'll keep looking for another solution.
It is fine to have styles in your svg file, as specification says:
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a stylesheet language used to describe
the presentation of a document written in HTML or XML (including XML
dialects such as SVG or XHTML). CSS describes how elements should be
rendered on screen, on paper, in speech, or on other media.

I'm in the process of building out my first TideSDK app by transitioning an existing AIR app and the client would like to white label the app. For the AIR app, we could point the application.xml file to the location of brand-specific HTML, but I don't see an obvious way to do that with tiapp.xml. Is it there and I'm just missing it?
In this case, white labeling mostly means a logo change and perhaps a few colors, so it's hardly anything intensive. What's the best way to do something like this using TideSDK?
TideSDK is no different than any web app for branding. CSS is used to style your HTML. Any default CSS you have in your base app may be overridden for branding of course.
Beyond the HTML, the native UI is controlled by the OS, and you have only the icon to be concerned with and replacing the default artwork (with your own branding) in the native installer we provide.
If you need to change the icon name, which is not a necessity, do this in the tiapp.xml and manifest. Just replace the image with one of your own. The same applies to the installer art.
U can modify the logo with the attribute image in manifest file:
#image:default_app_logo.png
change to
#image:my_logo.png
I created an application which uses a custom font and it used to work for some reason. Now it doesn't recognize the font I included in the jar and it renders the text using the default font.
I really don't get it. When I run the application from Netbeans everything is OK.
Any ideas? I cleared the Java cache and everything but no luck. I am running JRE 1.6.0_20.
I even tried this guy's example and it does not work. It actually shows squares because of the font not found.
I hope someone has the solution.
JavaFX caches the fonts, so you must register the font before any use of the javafx.scene.text.Font class. Once you use the javafx Font classes, the system fonts are cached and it is never consulted again. Also, this is an AWT specific mechanism and will not work on platforms that support PRISM, like JavaFX-TV.
I'm not a desktop applications developer so I was wondering if someone heard about an extension that actually writes on the file system. it would be great if you open firebug like extension and do some modifications e.g. adding CSS rules and they will be added automatically in the CSS file. how hard would it be to build such an extension?
The closest I've found is XRefresh which actively monitors files for changes, then automatically refreshes Firefox. It feels very similar to editing live with FireBug.
I think an extension like this would be possible, but it would be pretty hard to map DOM changes to a specific stylesheet.
You can could use the Web Developer Toolbar for this.
The changes you make in its CSS editor (CSS > Edit CSS) are applied to the page immediately (without saving to file), but it also has a Save... option, so you can overwrite the existing CSS file with it.
It's a pretty basic text field, though, that just displays the plain CSS file. It doesn't have any syntax highlighting nor organize the CSS rules according to the cascade etc. like Firebug does.
Also see this related question:
Why can’t I save CSS changes in FireBug?
Use Backfire. It's an open source solution I wrote that sends CSS changes back to the server and saves them. It has a working .NET server implementation example that is easily portable to any other platform.
