I'm here today because I'm wondering something about the NG Style with Angular (my version being the 6). How can i update [ngStyle] when I use a function to return a value.
As always, here is a simplified example of my problem:
I generate div from an array of objects.
For each section, there are two div: one on the left and one on the right.
The size of the left div changes depending on the content, so it can do both 50px and 125px.
I want the right div to fit the size of the one on his left, always half that size (2 in getLeftDivHeight).
Obviously, this will be done in each section (Container).
How can I make the ngStyle update when the div's height to the left changes (due to resizing, adding content, or page display time)? )
Here is the code:
HTML
<section class = "Container" *ngFor="let oneContent of allContent">
<div id = "{{oneContent.id}}" style="float: left">
<p> {{oneContent.Content}} </ p>
</div>
<div style="float: right" [ngStyle]="height: getLeftDivHeight(oneContent.id, 2)">
</div>
</div>
Typescript (only the related function)
getLeftDivHeight(id: string, divisionNumber: number): string {
height = document.GetElementById(id).getBoundingClientRect().height /
divisionNumber;
return height + 'px';
}
Note that I am not looking for an HTML solution, but an Angular one, the code above is just an example to explain my problem.
Thank you in advance
You could return the whole style string, for example height: 100px, from the getLeftDivHeight method
getLeftDivHeight(id: string, divisionNumber: number): string {
height = document.GetElementById(id).getBoundingClientRect().height / divisionNumber;
return `height: ${height}px`;
}
or you could use the below syntax in the template
[style.height.px]="getLeftDivHeight(parameters)"
return only numerical height value from the method.
So, I finally manage to do it, using a directive.
I used ElementRef to access the HTML Object of my right div.
import {ElementRef,Renderer} from '#angular/core';
constructor(private el: ElementRef,public renderer: Renderer) {}
Then, I used Dom to access the left div height
this.el.nativeElement.parentElement.childElement[0].clientHeight;
Then I use this.renderer.setElementStyle() to apply style
I also learn that use offscrollheight to do the math is not a good idea !

I have a weird issue where when I add padding-left: 32px to an element, vertical space gets added. If the CSS says 0, and I add the space manually in Chrome debugger, the vertical space isn't there. This is only happening with nested components. I'm not sure if I'm misusing something or if I have found a bug.
I have code like this:
<cai-setting-row class="itemGroupMiddle doubleIndent" data-type="A"
>Not Nested A</cai-setting-row
><cai-setting-row class="itemGroupMiddle doubleIndent" data-type="A"
>Not Nested B</cai-setting-row
>
<cai-setting-row-account></cai-setting-row-account>
The render of cai-setting-row-account is just the same markup:
render() {
return html`<cai-setting-row
class="itemGroupMiddle doubleIndent"
data-type="A"
>Nested A</cai-setting-row
><cai-setting-row class="itemGroupMiddle doubleIndent" data-type="A"
>Nested B</cai-setting-row
>`;
}
It renders like this:
The "Not Nested" elements look right. The "Nested" ones have extra space and you can see a weird border on top that is the distance of the padding.
I have a functioning sandbox here:
https://studio.webcomponents.dev/edit/8u0cg76BNEiSoHXQT8by/
I misunderstood how class is used on a custom component. Doing <my-component class="foo"> adds foo to the :host. My code in sandbox needed to change the magic of const parentClass = this.getAttribute('class') ?? ''; to const parentClass = this.getAttribute('itemClass') ?? '';, such that I wouldn't accidentally be applying classes to the :host and the intended element.
Is there any way to make the new "Sign In With Google" button responsive? Specifically, vary the width based on the width of the containing element? I'd really just like to set the width to 100%.
I'm aware I can set the data-width attribute but this sets it to an explicit width and doesn't update if you change it after the initial script load - you have to reload the whole script to resize the width.
This isn't a perfect solution but it works for us. We're using Twitter Bootstrap.
The new JavaScript library has a renderButton method. You can therefore render the button multiple times on one page passing different widths to each button using something like this (400 is the max width allowed by the library)
private renderAllGoogleSignInButtons(): void {
this.renderGoogleSignInButton(document.getElementById('google-signin-xs'), 400);
this.renderGoogleSignInButton(document.getElementById('google-signin-sm'), 280);
this.renderGoogleSignInButton(document.getElementById('google-signin-md'), 372);
this.renderGoogleSignInButton(document.getElementById('google-signin-lg'), 400);
this.renderGoogleSignInButton(document.getElementById('google-signin-xl'), 400);
}
private renderGoogleSignInButton(element: HTMLElement, width: number){
const options {
type: 'standard',
....
width: width
};
google.accounts.id.renderButton(element, options);
}
We then use the display classes from bootstrap to hide/show each button depending on the size.
<div class="mx-auto" style="max-width: 400px">
<div class="d-none-sm d-none-md d-none-lg d-none-xl">
<div id="google-signin-xs"></div>
</div>
<div class="d-none d-none-md d-none-lg d-none-xl">
<div id="google-signin-sm"></div>
</div>
<div class="d-none d-none-sm d-none-lg d-none-xl">
<div id="google-signin-md"></div>
</div>
<div class="d-none d-none-sm d-none-md d-none-xl">
<div id="google-signin-lg"></div>
</div>
<div class="d-none d-none-sm d-none-md d-none-lg">
<div id="google-signin-xl"></div>
</div>
</div>
We use a wrapper container with mx-auto and a max-width to center the buttons but you don't have to do this.
Our actual implementation is slightly different than the above as we're using Angular and the button is a component but you can get the idea from the above.
The only drawback with this method is that the "personalized button" doesn't seem to display for all rendered buttons but it doesn't seem to affect their functionality.
This answer is based on the new Google Identity Services.
You could try listening for a resize in the window using the resize event, then re-render the Google Sign In button on change. The assumption here is that the container will respond to match the window size:
addEventListener('resize', (event) => {});
onresize = (event) => {
const element = document.getElementById('someContainer');
if (element) {
renderGoogleButton(document.getElementById('googleButton'), element.offsetWidth); // adjust to whatever proportion of the "container" you like
}
}
renderGoogleButton(element, width) {
const options = {
type: 'outline',
width: width
}
google.accounts.id.renderButton(element, options);
}
I've also had better results when the button is centered, not left aligned. The following in Bootstrap:
<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
<div id="googleButton"></div>
</div>
NB: The max width for the Google button as of the time of writing is 400px, so bear that value in mind as the limit.
I did a workaround, and it worked for me. As I needed the button to have 100% width in mobile devices.
If you have another element on the screen that behaves the same way you need (like having its width 100%), you can select it using a querySelector, and get its width element.clientWidth, after this you can pass the width to the renderButton function provided by google.
But this solution is not valid if you would like the button to change its size on resizing.
I used transform: scale like this in the CSS:
.sign_in_btn_wrapper {
transform: scale(1.5, 1.5);
float: left;
margin-left: 20vmin;
font-weight: bold;
}
Then, instead of wrapping it as I intended, I found that it was fine to just add the class directly to the goog div:
<div class="g_id_signin sign_in_btn_wrapper"
data-type="standard"
data-shape="rectangular"
data-theme="outline"
data-text="signin_with"
data-size="large"
data-logo_alignment="left"
data-width="250">
</div>
By fiddling with combinations of data-size and data-width, along with the scaling factors, I was able to make it the size I wanted. You can use CSS media queries to adjust the 'transform: scale' values so that it is 'Responsive' to the display size of the user's device. You could also use other trickier methods by having JS tweak variables in your CSS that are then used to set the scaling factors.
Good luck. You'd think it'd be in the interest of these big 'sign in with' providers to get together a coordinating working group to make it easier for web site developers to make all the sign-in buttons the same damn size -- you know they'd rather not have their button come out smaller, and pages look better when things are uniform. And what's with only having dimensions in pixels? At least give us vw, vh, and my favorite: vmin. (Using vmin to set things like font size means you can often skip more tedious RWD contortions and call it good enough.) </end_rant>
I'm using display-inline in my elements as I want them to lay out horizontally instead of vertically as they do in most of the Angular examples. That said, the CSS behaves very weird. I'm specifically having two issues.
When I click an element to drag it, it grows (shrinks back to regular size after dropped). I'm not sure exactly why this happens but it is definitely not desired. I've tried numerous things to fix this via both css and adding a cdkDragPreview element with matchSize present (this seems to be the method Angular recommends). All of those efforts failed. I came across the following bug report that seems similar to my issue: https://github.com/angular/components/issues/19060. I noted that the bug was closed, so I don't know if that means it has been fixed.
When I start to drag an element from the bottom drop list, the remaining items move around sporadically while that element is still in the drop list (when it goes out of the bottom drop list they behave as I would expect them to). I created a hide style for the cdkDragPlaceholder as this seems to be how Angular provides control of this but it only helped with the top drop lists and seemed to have no effect on the bottom.
Here is a link that illustrates both issues on StackBlitz: https://stackblitz.com/edit/spuzzler. I'm guessing that my issue can be fixed with CSS, but I can't figure out how.
Create a cdkDropList for each word. My idea is to have an outer div and an inner div that is really the element that is dragged. More over, I fixed the size of the outer div. So, when you drag, there's no re-order of the words (simply leaves an empty space instead of the word you drag)
You can see the result in this stackblitz
<div #contenedor class="categories" cdkDropListGroup>
<ng-container *ngFor="let item of items;let i=index">
<div class="categories-item" cdkDropList
cdkDropListOrientation="horizontal"
[cdkDropListData]="{item:item,index:i}" (cdkDropListDropped)="drop($event)" >
<div class="inner" cdkDrag>
<div *cdkDragPlaceholder></div>
<div class="categories-item-drag" *cdkDragPreview matchSize="true" >
<div class="inner">{{item}}</div>
</div>
{{item}}
</div>
</div>
</ng-container>
</div>
I use an observable that returns an array or words. In subscribe I equal to item and, using a setTimeout() add the size to the outter div
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
#ViewChildren(CdkDropList, { read: ElementRef }) pills: QueryList<ElementRef>;
constructor(private renderer: Renderer2) {}
items: any[];
positions: any[];
ngOnInit() {
this.getParragraf().subscribe(res => {
this.items = res;
setTimeout(() => {
this.pills.forEach(x => {
this.renderer.setStyle(
x.nativeElement,
"width",
x.nativeElement.getBoundingClientRect().width + "px"
);
});
});
});
}
drop(event: CdkDragDrop<any>) {
this.items.splice(event.previousContainer.data.index, 1);
this.items.splice(event.container.data.index,0,event.previousContainer.data.item)
/* if we want to interchange the words, replace the two lines by*/
//this.items[event.previousContainer.data.index]=event.container.data.item
//this.items[event.container.data.index]=event.previousContainer.data.item
//event.currentIndex=0;
}
getParragraf() {
return of(
"Let him who walks in the dark, who has no light, trust in the name of the Lord and rely on his God.".split(
" "
)
);
}
}
Updated Really you needn't make a cdkDropListGroup, you can take advantage of [cdkDropListConnectedTo]. For this, you have two arrays: words and items
if res is an array of strings, you can have
this.items = res.map((x,index)=>({value:x,ok:false,id:'id'+index}));
this.words=res.map(x=>({o:Math.random(),value:x}))
.sort((a,b)=>a.o-b.o)
.map(x=>(
{value:x.value,
connected:this.items.filter(w=>x.value==w.value).map(x=>x.id)
}))
and use item.value,item.id and word.value,word.connected

I've read around a little bit and have a good start to what I ultimately want. This was helpful, along with another article which I forgot the link to. However, everything I've read ADDS a CSS class or property to an element. I want to CHANGE a property of an existing CSS class, but I don't know how to target it.
I think I want to use ng-class in one of these use cases taken from the Angular documentation:
If the expression evaluates to a string, the string should be one or more space-delimited class names.
If the expression evaluates to an object, then for each key-value pair of the object with a truthy value the corresponding key is used as a class name.
My existing code uses ng-class along with some controller logic.
HTML
<div ng-controller="ngToggle">
<div ng-class="{'inset-gray-border' : style}">
<div class="subcontainer" ng-click="toggleStyle()">{{item.name}}</div>
</div>
</div>
This currently adds the inset-gray-border class to the nested div, but I just want to change the border property in the subcontainer class.
Controller
angular.module('app').controller('ngToggle', ['$scope', function($scope) {
$scope.style = false;
$scope.toggleStyle = function() {
$scope.style = $scope.style === false ? true: false;
};
}]);
I considered using a directive, but I believe that would be overkill. I think this can be achieved in a controller.
EDIT: After further research I think jQLite can do the trick, but that would probably require a directive.
CHANGE a property of an existing CSS class
Add a css rule that does that using the new class you added using ng-class. The specificity will over ride the original rule
.subcontainer{
color : blue
}
.inset-gray-border .subcontainer{
color:red
}
Instead of a big toggleStyle function, you can write that stuff in UI side only.
Here is fiddle. As you want to change border property of .subcontainer, Overwrite that property by adding .insert-gray-border
<div ng-controller="ngToggle">
<div >
<div ng-class="{'subcontainer':true,'inset-gray-border' : style}" ng-click="style=!style">{{item.name}}</div>
</div>
</div>
The benifit of this is , it uses local scope instead of controller scope.
The best bet would be to have two CSS classes defined, one for the base (untoggled) case, another with all the properties that you want for when the property is toggled on.
In this case you may want something like:
.container .subcontainer {}
.container .subcontainer-bordered { border: solid 1px #123456}
Then your HTML code be updated to reflect this structure
<div ng-controller="ngToggle">
<div class="container">
<div class="subcontainer" ng-class="{'subcontainer-bordered': style}" ng-click="style = !style">{{item.name}}</div>
</div>
</div>
I have div box which contains two items. One is under the other one. So when the lower item is hover I'd make it animated and slide it out of the top item.
<div id="main">
<div id="box"></div>
<div id="item"></div>
</div>
With my knowledge in CSS3 I could only make a transition for item to slide it out in hover. But I want it happen when #main is hover not #item.
Have a look at the them please.

You are correct, there is no way currently to style a parent element of a child in pure CSS. You can use JavaScript as a way to achieve the desired effect.
(UPDATE)
You can achieve this in JavaScript by doing the following (DEMO: Fiddle)
JS
This should run onload or else it will not work.
// On Hover
document.getElementById('main').onmouseover = function () {
document.getElementById('item').classList.add("to-left"); // Add To Left Class
}
// OnMouseOut (Not Hover)
document.getElementById('main').onmouseout = function () {
document.getElementById('item').classList.remove("to-left"); // Remove To Left Class
}
Please remember to change the IDs of the elements if needed.
CSS
Add this CSS class to your CSS
.to-left {
margin-left: 60px;
}
And your HTML stays the same. This should get what I believe your desired result is. Let me know if this works for you.
