Working with GWT v2.5.1, I'm creating a DialogBox and filling it using HTML by calling dialog.setHTML(...) with this:
<h3>could not start.</h3>
<hr>
<p>These preferences must all be set before I can start</p>
I have no custom CSS. What appears on the screen is this:
You'll notice that there are big gaps in the left and right borders. Looking at the CSS for the dialogTopLeft and dialogTopRight classes, they extract the border from images/corner.png and the shown length of the border exactly matches the size of that image. In other words, the dialog is too big.
I tried removing the "no-repeat" directive on the background CSS attribute (using Chrome Inspector) but that repeats the entire border image, including the rounded corner at the top, and so does not appear contiguous.
I can't be the first person who's tried to put more than a single line into a DialogBox...
What's the trick to making the borders "repeat" and fill in the holes?
Wrap the HTML in HTMLPanel befor passing it to the DialogBox
DialogBox dialog = new DialogBox();
HTMLPanel panel = new HTMLPanel("<h3>could not start.</h3><hr><p>These preferences must all be set before I can start</p>");
dialog.add(panel);
dialog.center();
Thanks to #Moh for placing me on the right path.
The proper way to do this is to set only the dialog title using setHTML() and then create the body as a new panel and add it to the dialog.
DialogBox dialog = new DialogBox();
dialog.setHTML("<b>" + title + "</b>");
dialog.add(new HTMLPanel(message));
Adding buttons is left as an exercise for the reader...
GWT Dialoge box already have pre defined CSS.
you have to override or have to set your own style names using set Methods.
like..
dialogBox.setStyleName("yourcss");
Default css names starts with,
.gwt-DialogBox{}

By default, vue-js-modal scales from the central point, which is pretty strange. Is it possible to scale it like all other windows (according to one of the edges)?
EDIT
On the official page (http://vue-js-modal.yev.io/), when you 'click' resizable, you can see what I mean. In the docs there is a line, which describes 'resizable' attribute: "If true allows resizing the modal window, keeping it in the center of the screen". I didn't find other info and don't want to change the source code. I don't want it to be keeping in the center, because I think that this is not correct.
You need to use CSS styles to configure it manually before Overlay
.v--modal-overlay{
//add style like u r requirement
}
In style, you can also add these line to make it left align after it overlays
v--modal-box v--modal.{
left:0px !important
}
In particular I have a GWT project with a
TextArea element which I want to conform to a set width and expand as much as needed to the bottom.
ListBox element which I want to conform to a set width and expand vertically to show the entirety of the displayed list item.
Those are two widgets using replaced elements: <textarea> and <select> respectively.
for the TextArea, there's no way to make it really "resize automatically" other than listening to events and computing the new size (there's actually no need to compute the new size, you can just let the browser do it; see http://phaistonian.pblogs.gr/expanding-textareas-the-easy-and-clean-way.html)
for the ListBox, it's impossible to have the items' text wrap. See Word wrap options in a select list for a similar question in pure JS.
Set the width to whatever number and set height to auto.
After trying to find a solution for Centering Text on a Button with Offset, I'm doing now a custom component.
The goal is to make a button-like component that has an icon on one side and a centered text filling the rest of the button.
The component contains either two Label/ Buttons to display the Icon and text. Both of them have a background Image, defined in css.
The css looks like this for Icon and the text with exchanged image as background for text
#button-icon-cancel{
-fx-font-family: "Arial";
-fx-padding: 0,0,0,0;
-fx-background-color: transparent;
-fx-font-size: 28px;
-fx-graphic: url('images/button/cancel.png');
}
#button-icon-cancel:pressed{
-fx-graphic: url('images/button/cancel-pressed.png');
}
The images are loaded by setId(). Currently both components are added to a Panel before passing to the stage. They contain an OnClickEvent for processing.
Now to the actual question
How can I achieve that if one Component is clicked, the other one is getting the :pressed from css as well?
Adding the ClickEvent to the Panel is doing nothing (regarding clicking on either Label/ Button)
Adding both of them to a HBox, adding the Event to the HBox work in that regard, that I can click either component and the Event gets fired, BUT the :pressed State is only applied to the component you clicked.
Is it possible to give all childs the notification, that they should behave like they got pressed? Since we have a lot of small Icon, but only one background for the text, placing a Label over the whole thing create a lot of unneeded wasted Image space. Also this would cause the problematic for changing font color if not all css are changed at once (the label-over-button-solution with .setMouseTransparent(true) wouldn't change the font color of the text label since the label doesn't notice button is pressed)
First of all, JFX-8 will support wider range of css improvements, which will allow you to solve the issue easier.
To solve your issue, i can suggest the following : each node have a pressed property. You can add a listener on this property, and when it changes to true, use setStyle(String) method on needed nodes, and use setStyle(null | "") on changing to false.
Chrome has some cute features to make the selected form element (input ect) stand out like adding a border color and, more annoyingly, it slightly reduces the margins on some of my form elements after they've been selected, shifting the page slightly each time a text entry box is selected.
It's not the textarea draggable resize effect that chrome has, it's effecting input elements that should have a constant size, but they automatically change once selected.
Is there any CSS to disable this feature, or do I simply have to make sure my text box margins/padding are set up such that Chrome doesn't resize them?
Here it is
textarea { resize:none; }
I love working on other people's sites...the problem was javascript they were using to restyle form elements after click and I have no idea why. Solution was to remove that junk.
I'm having this problem of adding an image to the textArea in RichTextEditor (RTE) on the fly and this image seems to "reset" the html properties of the textArea.
Better explained:
The user starts writing something in the TextArea (with Verdana in size:12 font settings). When he adds an image to the text area, the cursor right after the image gets very small and the font settings are reset to HUM777B in size:2.
How could I avoid this behavior?
It seems Flex adds additional HTML code before the image tag. If there was any way to avoid this I would be able to add my own settings to the tags.
Just before you programmatically add the image to the textArea, create a variable and store a reference to the textArea styling info. Set the styling info using this variable after you have added the image.
