Forcing Tile Styling on Google Maps API for Javascript V3 - google-maps-api-3

I am creating a maps plugin for Wordpress that uses Google Maps JS API V3. Commonly the maps will be embedded within a wordpress post that has images that are styled. This actually happens in one of the most popular themes TwentyEleven.
.entry-content img,
.comment-content img,
.widget img {
max-width: 97.5%; /* Fluid images for posts, comments, and widgets */
}
What this means for Google maps is that map tiles end up looking like is this:
This has been posted about, not a ton but people have had to deal with it. So I have researched this.
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/twenty-eleven-12-breaks-embedded-google-maps
http://wpscale.com/google-street-map-cant-work-in-wordpress-3-2/
Every post I have seen on this subject provides the solution of changing the class styling for the div being used:
.wl_places_place_map_canvas img {
max-width: none;
}
This looks better, it really does. I am not finding a solution that makes it look great though. There are two effects from this solution that are not desirable.
Sometimes on backgrounded tile load the styling override doesn't actually work.
There is still visible 1px tile gapping that actually gaps marker overlays if they happen to be on tile lines.
To deal with the backgrounded style issue I have attempted to use jQuery, and make sure all tiles are loaded prior to setting the style:
google.maps.event.trigger(_instance._map, 'resize');
var listener = google.maps.event.addListener(_instance._map, "tilesloaded", function() {
jQuery('.wl_places_place_map_canvas').find('img').css('max-width','none');
google.maps.event.removeListener(listener);
});
That deals with the first issue, not the second and 1px tile gaps still are visible on the map and overlays.
What I want is a 100% bulletproof way to force style on the map. I have researched the API extensively. What I would really like is a way to set the style on the map itself, hopefully as a URL, and it would ignore and override all external styles. In the best possible world this style would live in Google's CDN and be tested to always look clean and fresh no matter where it was embedded.
Any ideas?

I just added #map img { max-width:none !important; } to the initial map styles. Seems to be working so far.
Everything was working fine for me on WordPress until I added a map inside the HTML field on Gravity Forms. Not sure why it started failing but the above fixed the tile issue.

Styling Hubspot Forms with css - Oceanwp theme - Elementor pro

Hope I'm in the right place. Been sent here from the hubspot forums for different help. I've got this site with hubspot forms, but they only display at a 1/3 column. I've placed both of the following codes into the style sheet of Oceanwp theme (havent needed a child theme yet, trying to avoid that, I only placed it here temporarily to see if it works before creating the child theme if needed). I also placed it in the css injectors in elementor in the element itself, and in hidden elements on the page in various places (trying to figure out when the columns get set as the page loads and trying to get in front of it). I'm not really great with css or html, but i do have rudimentary understanding of how they work, I just cant write it.
Heres one of my forms, and the two pieces of code I have tried. Please help!!

.hbspt-form .hs-form fieldset {
margin: 0 auto;
}
.hs-form fieldset {
max-width: none!important;
}

Print css, only load images at print time

I'm currently developing a complex print style sheet which is in some ways different from the HTML currently displayed on screen. I've hit a hurdle with a balance between performance and achieving the desired layout.
Basically there is a gallery of images which are loaded via javascript on the fly. Images are built dynamically via JS and output to the DOM on each request for the next image.
My problem lies in that I need to build this for printing purposes. I think I'm left with a scenario where I will have to build additional html on the page just for the print page to look correct; that isn't so much of a problem, except the images are rather big, and even using "display:none" and media print { display:block; } won't prevent the images from being downloaded on desktop devices behind the scenes by the browser. In essence I need them to stay dormont on screens, and come to life using print styles.
I had considered using the css background-image property - which I believe doesn't cause the image to load in the browser, however background image doesn't seem to reliably print across different browsers.
I've also tried using onbeforeprint javascript, but again, this is mess of browser inconsistency.
Can anyone suggest any sort of solution for this? at the moment it seems like I'm going to have to suck up the additional overhead of all the images to achieve reliable results.
If background images are an option, you could prevent the download of those when setting the parent element of the image container to display: none
Example HTML:
<div class="invisible">
<div class="img-container">
</div>
</div>
Related CSS:
.invisible {
display: none;
}
.img-container {
background: url(img.xyz);
}
#media print {
.invisible {
display: block;
}
}
Apart from that a similar question had been asked: Prevent images from loading
May be that will help you, if background images are definitely NOT an option.

Github Code Review - Full Screen Width

Can anyone tell me how to tell Github, that I want to see code reviews on Pull Requests in full screen width. Code lines are often longer than the area provided by Github and there is a lot of unused screen real estate.
Is there a setting in Github or a Chrome extension or Tamper Monkey or something like that.
Use Stylebot chrome extension
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylebot/oiaejidbmkiecgbjeifoejpgmdaleoha?hl=en
I use my own style for my favourite websites, I love it.
Plus point is that you can use the styles created by other peoples also. Someone might have already done the things you need there. Or else you can modify on your own.
I have few CSS rules for you,
.repository-with-sidebar .repository-content {
width: calc(100% - 50px);
}
.container {
width: 90%;
}
Github's CSS has changed, so the new styles should be:
.container-lg {
max-width: inherit;
}
You can create a shortcut in your browser to automatically apply this style:
javascript:(function(){var a=document.getElementsByClassName("container-lg")[0];a.style.max-width="inherit";})();
There's a class on the body called full-width for that, so all that's needed currently is:
document.body.classList.add('full-width');
This can also be added as a bookmarklet:
javascript:(function(){document.body.classList.add('full-width');})();
Don't know why the OP said it's not a problem anymore, if you're doing a code review of your own work you won't be comparing it against another in side-by-side view.
Fix for full screen:
Inspect element on the white space to the left of the code
You'll be brought to a tag, expand this
Click on the 3rd div child of 'main'
Scroll down through the css on the right hand side until you find ".container-xl"
Untick this and you'll get the code full screen
If you want to you can write a console script or use one of the plugins mentions above but I find this method the simplest to remember and apply on anyones machine.
This is no longer an issue after GitHub introduced side-by-side code review. That really works well.

CSS'ing TinyMCE on a Diazo'ed Plone site

I had thought that TinyMCE was supposed to remain untouched by the Diazo theme, however some CSS from somewhere is leaking in and making certain functions harder to use. One such example is below, the line height on all the rows has become super short, making each row hard to select.
In Firebug, I can fix this by adding a min-height value here, a value set in dialog.css:
.radioscrolllist .list {min-height: 2em;}
However, I cannot find where to actually set this and have it stick. I've tried putting it in the Diazo theme style.css, in ploneCustom.css, and customizing both portal_skins/tinymce/themes/advanced/skins/plone/dialog.css and portal_skins/tinymce/plugins/plonebrowser/css/plonebrowser.css — none of these seem to do the trick though.
Any ideas on how/where to make this fix? The problem only shows up on the Diazo version of the site, not from the unthemed version. It looks like the only CSS files that load on the TinyMCE iframe are:
dialog.css
plonebrowser.css
columns.css
This is what I have in my project CSS to deal with a similar issue, though I find different issues on each project depending on what I do with the general CSS & columns in particular:
/* Fix TinyMCE gremlins */
#internallinkcontainer div.row {
/* Image browser was jumbled */
float: none;
}
#content #internallinkcontainer .list.item span,
#content #internallinkcontainer .list.item a {
/* Link browser was packed too much */
position: inherit;
}
#internallinkcontainer input[type="radio"] {
vertical-align: middle;
}
/* #end */
Which get's my Link Browser looking like this again:
Apart from the Diazo-CSS troubles, it sounds like you might be having trouble with
plone.css getting cached. The following is from the developer manual with amendments by myself that have not yet been pulled in.
plone.css
plone.css is automagically generated dynamically based on the full portal_css registry configuration. It is used in e.g. TinyMCE to load all CSS styles into the TinyMCE in a single pass. It is not used on the normal Plone pages.
plone.css generation:
https://github.com/plone/Products.CMFPlone/blob/master/Products/CMFPlone/skins/plone_scripts/plone.css.py
Note: plone.css is #import-ed by dialog.css which "hides" it from a browser refresh of a normal Plone page, even when Plone is in development mode. This means you may find you do not see your CSS updates within the TinyMCE plugin (e.g. in the link/image browser) whilst developing your theme. If this is the case, then simply do a hard refresh in your browser directly on: /plone.css to clear the cached version.
I just faced the same issue last week. My workaround was adding this in my theme's CSS (the tinymce dialogs are not part of the iframe that contains the content being edited; they are in the main frame):
#internallinkcontainer.radioscrolllist { line-height: auto !important; }
#internallinkcontainer .list.item span, #internallinkcontainer .list.item a { position: static !important; }
(Clearly we should find a less hacky solution, but I haven't had a chance.)
You almost answered it to yourself: You can customize column.css, that'll work, no important-declarations needed.
Additionally this seems not to be Diazo-related, the ploneCustom.css will also not be delivered to the dialog-window in a non-diazo'ed site, hmm.

Fancybox: Overriding CSS

How do I override the css of a fancybox?
I'm building a website that uses fancybox on two different pages, and I want to override the fancybox css on one of these pages so the arrows are pushed outside of the box.
IE I would like to impart these properties on the fancybox:
.fancybox-prev {
left: -80px !important;
}
.fancybox-next {
right: -80px;
}
I can't figure out how to accomplish this and solutions to other relevant stackoverflow problems don't work. I'm sure there's a simple way to do it.
Can anybody help me out?
$('.fancybox-prev').attr('style', 'left: -80px !important');
$('.fancybox-next').attr('style', 'right: -80px');
You have to remember about hirarchy of the CSS. Inline CSS are the most important ones, external CSS will be read second.
When it comes to the latter, they are read from the top of your CSS file. So writing the style, which you want to use to override a previous one, below, should do the work just fine.
Secondly, you can always use jQuery to do that. ShaggyInjun gave a good example. You should be able to do that by using $(selector).css();.
if using fancybox v1.3.4 check:
http://fancybox.net/faq No.8 .... it also might be useful to check this.
if using fancybox v2.x check :
https://stackoverflow.com/a/8672001/1055987
Basically, you have to set a CSS inline declaration AFTER you have loaded the fancybox css file in order to override those properties.
