Is it possible to inherit from a custom element.
I added a basic example of the x-foo custom element with a template and a shadow dom. Is it possible to create a new custom element called "x-superfoo" which inherits "x-superfoo"s functions and styles (and overwrites some styling, e.g. blue color)?

Sure! Just use standard JS prototypical inheritance.
var XSuperFooProto = Object.create(XFooProto);
XSuperFooProto.createdCallback = function() {
XFooProto.createdCallback.call(this);
// Set up another shadow root...
};
document.registerElement('x-superfoo', {prototype: XSuperFooProto});

Is there a way to add a css class name to empty paragraphs in ckeditor so I can target them with css?
Empty paragraphs in ckeditor are not really empty because they contain a br tag so I can not use :empty to target them.
From what I can see, the good thing is that those <br> inside empty paragraphs have an attribute which makes them easy to target.
In the future, you might use a pure CSS solution like this one.
p:has(> br[data-cke-filler="true"]) {
/* styles here */
}
For now, you either have to style the directly.
Depending on what you're trying to accomplish, maybe applying css to the <br> would suffice.
br[data-cke-filler="true"] {
/* styles here */
}
And if you are able to run javascript in ckeditor. This can easely be done today.
Examples : with jQuery
$( "p:has(br[data-cke-filler="true"])" ).addClass( "MyEmptyParagraphsClass" );
or
$( "br[data-cke-filler="true"]" ).parent().addClass( "MyEmptyParagraphsClass" );
Example : with Native Javascript
var brs = Document.querySelectorAll("br[data-cke-filler="true"]");
brs.forEach(function(br) {
br.classList.add("MyEmptyParagraphsClass");
});
In CKEditor 4, you can have a configuration file.
And you can add the custom config with the options here.
In your case, you might need these options :
config.ignoreEmptyParagraph = false;
config.fillEmptyBlocks = false; // Prevent filler nodes in all empty blocks.
Meanwhile in CKEditor 5, you can try these documentations about Block Widget :

I have an application where I'm using Material UI and its theme provider (using JSS).
I'm now incorporating fullcalendar-react, which isn't really a fully fledged React library - it's just a thin React component wrapper around the original fullcalendar code.
That is to say, that I don't have access to things like render props to control how it styles its elements.
It does however, give you access to the DOM elements directly, via a callback that is called when it renders them (eg. the eventRender method).
Here's a basic demo sandbox.
Now what I'm wanting to do is make Full Calendar components (eg, the buttons) share the same look and feel as the rest of my application.
One way to do this, is that I could manually override all of the styles by looking at the class names it's using and implementing the style accordingly.
Or - I could implement a Bootstrap theme - as suggested in their documentation.
But the problem with either of these solutions, is that that:
It would be a lot of work
I would have synchronisation problems, if I made changes to my MUI theme and forgot to update the calendar theme they would look different.
What I would like to do is either:
Magically convert the MUI theme to a Bootstrap theme.
Or create a mapping between MUI class names and the calendar class names, something like:
.fc-button = .MuiButtonBase-root.MuiButton-root.MuiButton-contained
.fc-button-primary= .MuiButton-containedPrimary
I wouldn't mind having to massage the selectors etc to make it work (ie. For example - MUI Buttons have two internal spans, whereas Full Calendar have just one). It's mostly about when I change the theme - don't want to have to change it in two places.
Using something like Sass with its #extend syntax would is what I have in mind. I could create the full-calendar CSS with Sass easily enough - but how would Sass get access to the MuiTheme?
Perhaps I could take the opposite approach - tell MUI 'Hey these class names here should be styled like these MUI classes'.
Any concrete suggestions on how I would solve this?
Here is my suggestion (obviously, it's not straight forward). Take the styles from the MUI theme and generate style tag based on it using react-helmet. To do it event nicely, I created a "wrapper" component that do the map. I implemented only the primary rule but it can be extended to all the others.
This way, any change you will do in the theme will affect the mapped selectors too.
import React from "react";
import { Helmet } from "react-helmet";
export function MuiAdapter({ theme }) {
if (!theme.palette) {
return <></>;
}
return (
<Helmet>
<style type="text/css">{`
.fc-button-primary {
background: ${theme.palette.primary.main}
}
/* more styles go here */
`}</style>
</Helmet>
);
}
And the use of the adapter
<MuiAdapter theme={theme} />

You could create a mapping between MUI class names and the calendar class names by going through ref's. It's possible that this is not what some would call "best practice"...but it's a solution :). Note that I updated your component from a functional component to a class component, but you could accomplish this with hooks in a functional component.
Add refs
Add a ref to the MUI element you want to set as a reference, in your case the Button.
<Button
color="primary"
variant="contained"
ref={x => {
this.primaryBtn = x;
}}
>
And a ref to a wrapping div around the component you want to map to. You can't add it directly to the component since that wouldn't give us access to children.
<div
ref={x => {
this.fullCal = x;
}}
>
<FullCalendar
...
/>
</div>
Map classes
From componentDidMount() add whatever logic you need to target the correct DOM node (for your case, I added logic for type and matchingClass). Then run that logic on all FullCalendar DOM nodes and replace the classList on any that match.
componentDidMount() {
this.updatePrimaryBtns();
}
updatePrimaryBtns = () => {
const children = Array.from(this.fullCal.children);
// Options
const type = "BUTTON";
const matchingClass = "fc-button-primary";
this.mapClassToElem(children, type, matchingClass);
};
mapClassToElem = (arr, type, matchingClass) => {
arr.forEach(elem => {
const { tagName, classList } = elem;
// Check for match
if (tagName === type && Array.from(classList).includes(matchingClass)) {
elem.classList = this.primaryBtn.classList.value;
}
// Run on any children
const next = elem.children;
if (next.length > 0) {
this.mapClassToElem(Array.from(next), type, matchingClass);
}
});
};
This is maybe a little heavy handed, but it meets your future proof requirement for when you updated update Material UI. It would also allow you to alter the classList as you pass it to an element, which has obvious benefits.
Caveats
If the 'mapped-to' component (FullCalendar) updated classes on the elements you target (like if it added .is-selected to a current button) or adds new buttons after mounting then you'd have to figure out a way to track the relevant changes and rerun the logic.
I should also mention that (obviously) altering classes might have unintended consequences like a breaking UI and you'll have to figure out how to fix them.

For an Angular project I'm working on, I'm injecting HTML into a <div> like so:
<div class="myClass" [innerHTML]="htmlToInsert"></div>
The htmlToInsert contains a variety of things, notably <a> tags. Previously we were styling all these tags like so:
.myClass ::ng-deep a {
color: #f00;
text-decoration: none;
}
And this worked fine. But now I need the color of these links to be dynamically generated during component initialization, based on data coming in from elsewhere. All of the dynamic styling I've seen in Angular requires you to apply things directly to the HTML tag, but we don't have them here to work with.
How can I apply dynamic styling to HTML that is also dynamically generated? Can I directly change the CSS class somehow? Would using a pipe be the correct approach here? Is there another method I don't know about? I could maybe refactor code if there is absolutely no other way of doing this.
So if you can't modify the innerHTML you are passing in, you can achieve this functionality with a custom directive. Essentially you would tag your div that contains your innerHTML with a custom directive. That directive then looks for any anchor tags in it and changes the color based on an input.
// component.html
<div anchorColor [color]="dynamicColor" [innerHTML]="htmlToInsert"></div>
// directive.ts
#Directive({selector: '[anchorColor]'})
export class AnchorColorDirective implements OnAfterViewInit {
#Input() color: string;
constructor(private el: ElementRef){
}
// afterViewInit lifecycle hook runs after DOM is rendered
ngAfterViewInit(){
// get anchor element
let anchorEl = this.el.nativeElement.querySelector('a');
// assign color
if(anchorEl){
anchorEl.style.color = this.color;
}
}
}

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
};
See the docs
I'm creating a span in my web page with dojo.create, and need to apply CSS to it. I can see how to apply a style to it in the dojo reference, but I'd rather apply it via the external stylesheet (there's quite a few attributes I need to set and I'd rather not do it inline).
So given the example code below, how would I apply the CSS for the printSpan class?
var node = dojo.create("span", {innerHTML:_text, id:"printSpan", class:"printSpan"}, map);
You can write this in your external stylesheet:
.printSpan { color: red; }
This is called the class selector.
By the way, your code should be:
{ innerHTML : _text, id : "printSpan", "class" : "printSpan" }
Notice the colon was inside the "class" string, though it should be outside and printSpan is a different string.
