How to customize the Semantic UI buttons(background-color, border-radius and all)
<button class="ui button create-new-menu-btn">Create New Menu</button>
. create-new-menu-btn {
border-radius: 0;
background-color: red;
}
The above code is not working
You need to make your custom properties more specific than the ones semantic is using. How specificity works (simply) is that when there are competing property values on the same element, the one that is more "specific" is chosen.
Read this to know more about CSS specificity: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/CSS/Specificity
For your particular problem:
One way to make your custom CSS more specific is to use an id in the body tag of your page and use the following selector:
Method 1
#bodyid .create-new-menu-btn {
//Properties
}
Another way is to simply add an id to the element you want to select
Method 2
#create-new-menu-btn {
}
Method 1 is preferred when you want to apply the properties on multiple elements (hence the use of a class) (Like multiple comment buttons on a page)
Method 2 is preferred when there is a single element to be selected. (Like a login/signup button in the header)
You can also add semantic ui's classes before your own for specificity.
For example : if your className is .create-new-menu-btn you can add in css or scss before ui.button or any other semantic ui specific clas that you neeed. So in the end, your class definition in css would look like this:
ui.button.create-new-menu-btn {
....
}
If using JSX, you can use inline styling for the targeted elements
Example:
<Button style={{backgroundColor: 'red', borderRadius: 0}}> View Created </Button>
#bodyId .ui.create-new-menu-btn {
border-radius: 0;
background-color: red;
}
It will target all button with ui class.
Hope It will be useful :)
Put .ui.button infront of your class name create-new-btn. It should look like below
.ui.button.create-new-btn {
//Your css code
}
Then in your html/jsx template you can use the class name create-new-btn like below:
<Button class="create-new-btn"/>
or for Jsx
<Button className="create-new-btn"/>

I have multiple css classes that make up a button using SCSS.
.ghost-button {
// CSS goes here
}
.ghost-button-label {
// CSS goes here
}
.plus-circle {
//CSS goes here
}
Using Angular I can control the disabled state using the following feature.
[class.disabled]="booleanFlag"
I wanted to have a disabled state for this button with out having multiple disabled classes like so,
.ghost-button.disabled {
// CSS goes here
}
.ghost-button-label.disabled {
// CSS goes here
}
.plus-circle.disabled {
//CSS goes here
}
This is an example of what I am trying to do. This did not work for me.
.ghost-button .ghost-button-label .plus-circle-position .disabled {
//CSS goes here
}
Here is the markup I use for the button,
<div style="padding-top: 10px" (click)="handleClickAdd($event)">
<div class="ghost-button ghost-button-label icon-custom icon-margin plus-circle plus-circle-position" [class.disabled]="blockAdditions">
<div>
<div>Add</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Is there a way to do this? Thanks.
This doesn't work because it means each class is a descendant of the previous:
.ghost-button .ghost-button-label .plus-circle-position .disabled {
//CSS goes here
}
If you're trying to just select that one div with all four classes, just remove the spaces:
.ghost-button.ghost-button-label.plus-circle-position.disabled {
//CSS goes here
}
If you're trying to select any elements that have the disabled class plus one of the three other classes, then you use commas to separate the different combinations:
.ghost-button.disabled,
.ghost-button-label.disabled,
.plus-circle-position.disabled {
// CSS
}
Of course you could just select .disabled if you want this CSS applied to every element with the disabled class:
.disabled {
// CSS
}
Just be sure to take into account View Encapsulation. You may need to put this CSS in the global style file styles.css if this class exists in more than one component.
Just a note, you are not setting the disabled state here, you are adding a class with the name "disabled". disabled is a boolean attribute you can set via HTML, which you can then select with the pseudo-class :disabled.
button:disabled {
color: red
}
<button>Not Disabled</button>
<button disabled>Disabled</button>
If this is what you were actually trying to do then in Angular it would be:
[disabled]="booleanFlag"
You can target a disabled element with the :disabled pseudo-class https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/:disabled
So depending on the relationship between your button/label/plus-circle you should be able to target those as well based on whether the button is disabled. For example, if the button and label are siblings you could do this:
.ghost-button:disabled,
.ghost-button:disabled + .ghost-button-label,
.ghost-button:disabled + .plus-circle {
// CSS goes here
}
That would only work if the label and circle were siblings that come after the button, if they are before the button, you can't select them that way.
I am migrating an application from AngularJS to Angular. I have just moved a loading-indicator component to Angular, and that has an optional modal binding to say whether its a modal loader or not.
In reality this doesnt bind to anything right now, it simply matches a CSS rule.
HTML
<loading-indicator [modal]="true"></loading-indicator>
SCSS
loading-indicator {
&[modal="true"] {
background: rgba(255,255,255,0.5);
}
}
The SCSS above targets an attribute of modal not [modal].
How do I target [modal]? I saw some answers suggesting I can escape the brackets using \\ e.g. &\\[[modal\\]] but this didn't seem to work.
You cannot. Because [modal]="true" for Angular it's an input and this will be converted to another HTML attribute.
You can use modal=true in your component and you can select this with
[modal=true] {
/*styles*/
}
But for encapsulation, you need to put this style on the root styles of the app.
It's a better solution to bind the input modal value to a [ngClass]="":
Inside the component ts loading-indicator:
#Input() modal;
On the template use:
<div [ngClass]="modal ? 'modal-background' : ''"></div>
On the styles of component:
.modal-background{
background: rgba(255,255,255,0.5);
}
For example, you can change the ink colour in paper-tabs by changing --paper-tab-ink: var(--accent-color);. Is it possible to change the value of the CSS custom properties dynamically similar to how you can toggle a class or change the style in JS?
There are different ways to do this, but a simple answer is to use the Polymer.updateStyles() method after making your class changes.
For example, let's say your styles are:
<style>
.yellow x-example {
--light-primary-color: #fdd85f;
}
.red x-example {
--light-primary-color: red;
}
</style>
and you want to make the component use the styles in the .red class. You simply add it as you normally would in javascript, then be sure to also use this function to actually update it on the page.
<div class="yellow" onclick="this.className='red'; Polymer.updateStyles()">
<x-example></x-example>
</div>
Yes, first get the object of your custom element. Then get the customStyle object. Add a style to that object. And then run element.updateStyles();
t.clickListener= function(e) {
var t = Polymer.dom(e).localTarget; //retarget if needed
t.customStyle['--the-color-etc'] = 'pink';
t.updateStyles(); // mandatory for the CSS variables shim
};

I have a Submit Button like this:
<input type="submit" data-corners="false" id="code_check_button" tabindex="5" data-rel="external" value="GO">
which - with a custom css theme - outputs this: http://sht.tl/59y3m
Now I would like to use the id (#code_check_button) to style the button with more specificity.
Unfortunately jquerymobile automagically transforms the input type submit in a snippet of code I cannot control: http://sht.tl/cQq
As you can note, the original button ID is useless...
Can you tell me how may I custom style that button (of course, without wrapping it in an extra tag...)?
Thank you!
Numerous ways this can be achieved..
Here are a few examples:
submit {
styles:styles;
}
Not the most compatible in older browsers:
input[type="submit"] {
styles:styles;
}
Then you can target the ID:
#code_check_button {
styles:styles;
}
In your stylesheet add the ID #code_check_button and provide the desired style you want.. see example below :-
#code_check_button {
your desired style properties here...
}
EDIT:
You can use the class of the generated div and style the button accordingly. In this generated snippet you have two elements to style. please find below :-
.ui-btn {
style properties here...
}
.ui-btn .ui-btn-text {
style properties here...
}
CSS
#code_check_button {
color:#000 !important;
width:200px !important;
}
You can see I have added !important tag in all the css properties. This is because of overwritten the jQ mobile default styles.
If something keeps changing your intended css into useless code, this may be a situation where you would resort to simple text (eg. nano for mac or notepad for windows) Web design programs are double edged swords, most of the time the bells and whistles on these programs help make things easier, but sometimes they can make things more complicated. To custom style a button all you have to do is put your id or class selector name in the input tag and then enter the css for it. For example
CSS
#code_check_button { background-image: url(/*desired image url*/);
background-color: /*desired background color*/;
color: /*desired font color*/; }
HTML
<input id="code_check_button" type="submit" name="submit">
Just try it in notepad this time.
I'm developing a web based source code editor. I'm thinking of adding support for themes (syntax highlighting).
//Default theme
.default-reserved-word
{
background-color : red;
}
//Some other theme
.monokai-reserved-word
{
background-color : green;
}
inside the editor each syntax highlightable word is surrounded by a span tag with the appropriate class:
....
<span class="default-reserved-word">def</span>method name
...
which I want to convert to (when the user clicks a "change theme" button)
....
<span class="monokai-reserved-word">def</span>method name
...
Is there a simple way of switching these CSS rules without going through all the elements and modifying the class attributes?
(FWIW, I need to support IE7+, FF3.6+)
I'd suggest using a different method, perhaps have a theme class on a higher parent container:
<div class="theme-default">
And then use CSS like this:
.theme-default .reserved-word {
color: blue;
}
Whilst this method is not exactly what you've asked for it will simplify the process of changing styles, for a start you won't have to search through loads of spans, finding the current class of theme-name + ' -reserved-word' (etc) and doing a string replace on them.
Add a class name to the root element (<html>) and change that on use input.
.theme1 .reserved-word { color: red; }
.theme2 .reserved-word { color: green; }
and then change
<html class="theme1">
to
<html class="theme2">
with Javascript.
You can use jQuery for that:
var elements = $('.default-reserved-word')
elements.removeClass('default-reserved-word');
elements.addClass('monokai-reserved-word');
