using Jquery Ui - setting width on a particular multiselect box - css

I am using Jquery UI like this:
$("#companyType").multiselect({
multiple: false,
header: "Type",
noneSelectedText: "Type",
selectedList: 1
});
$('.ui-multiselect').css('width', '100px');
What I'd like to do is set the .ui-multiselect for only the #companyType div. Something like this:
$('#companyType.ui-multiselect').css('width', '100px');
Is there a way to do this?
Thank you!

Try this code with minWidth option. It is the minimum width of the entire widget in pixels. Setting to “auto” will disable, and the default is: 225
$("#companyType").multiselect({
multiple: false,
header: "Type",
noneSelectedText: "Type",
selectedList: 1
minWidth:100
});

not sure what version you use, but v1.5 includes a new "classes" parameter that you can set for styling your multiselect element.
Have a look here on how to use it :
http://www.erichynds.com/jquery/jquery-ui-multiselect-widget/
it says
Additional class(es) to apply to BOTH the button and menu for further
customization. Separate multiple classes
with a space. You’ll need to scope your CSS to differentiate between the button/menu:
Example
$("#companyType").multiselect({
classes : "myClass"
});
then in the css file use:
/* button */
.ui-multiselect.myClass {}
/* menu */
.ui-multiselect-menu.myClass {}

If you want to set that particular css rule for only elements with class .ui-multiselect contained in the div #companyType I think jquery ui has no influence in it.
Try this:
$('#companyType .ui-multiselect').css('width', '100px');
This will set width = 100px to all elements contained in #companyType that have a class 'ui-multiselect'

Another simple method for adding width to the multiselect list box is like these
It is easy than adding another class or inline styling
$('#companyType .ui-multiselect').width(200);
This will set a with of 200 px to the specified list box

For the reference, if you want to a percentage for the width (e.g 100%) apply it within resize event of the window.
$(window).resize(function () {
$('#companyType .ui-multiselect').css('width', '100%');
});
You can also assign it to another element's width dynamically:
$(window).resize(function () {
$('#companyType .ui-multiselect').css('width', $('#anotherElement').css('width'));
});

Angular / CSS style change width of row items

I am conceiving a horizontal bar containing items.
They must all be of same width, having the same spacing between them.
They can expand as much as they want vertically (
stackblitz here
Problem:
How to automatically set the width of the row elements? Here I simply put a value that looks good: width:200px.
I want them to have a width dependent on the number of element per row.
What I tried:
Using elementRef in Horizontile (component holding the individual tiles, displaying with *ngFor) to get the width of this element:
currentWidth:number;
constructor(private el:ElementRef) {}
ngAfterViewInit(): void {
this.currentWidth=this.el.nativeElement.offsetWidth;}
it returns 5. (??) Using .width returns nothing. Also this is not recommended, I'd like another solution, less coupling.
I noticed I can make use of width:inherit; in the css of the individual tile component, which allows me to set the style from the horizontal list component.
<app-tile [style.width.px]="0.9*currentWidth/nDisplayedTiles" [tile]="item"></app-tile>
As the currentWidth value is zero, of course it doesn't work;
I tried setting it in % but the inherits css tag keeps the %, which is not the intended effect.
Why is the app-tile styling not cared about if inherits is not set?
I tried using ViewEncapsulation but it had no effect either.
This looks like a trivial matter though: did I just miss something?
You can use the offsetParent (link) width and create a method to return the value on each of the cells and call it in your [style.width.px], something like the following will work.
The HTMLElement.offsetParent read-only property returns a reference to the element which is the closest (nearest in the containment hierarchy) positioned ancestor element.
stackblitz
ngAfterViewInit(): void {
//added this as the compiler was throwing ExpressionChangedAfterItHasBeenCheckedError
setTimeout(() => {
this.currentWidth=this.el.nativeElement.offsetParent.clientWidth;
});
}
getWidth(): number{
let width:number = 0;
//you may need to change this value to better display the cells
let multiplier = 0.7;
width = (this.currentWidth * multiplier) / this.ndisplayTiles;
width = Math.round(width);
return width;
}
<app-tile [class]="'layout-tile'" [tile]="item" [style.width.px]="getWidth()">
</app-tile>

How to set min width on GtkScrollbar?

I want to develop new features in Quod Libet music player.
I need to increase size of specific scrollbar.
There's a function already exists to apply css to a widget:
def add_css(widget, css):
"""Add css for the widget, overriding the theme.
Can raise GLib.GError in case the css is invalid
"""
if not isinstance(css, bytes):
css = css.encode("utf-8")
provider = Gtk.CssProvider()
provider.load_from_data(css)
context = widget.get_style_context()
context.add_provider(provider, Gtk.STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_APPLICATION)
So I try to apply css as this:
self.scrollwin = sw = ScrolledWindow()
sw.set_shadow_type(Gtk.ShadowType.IN)
#get scrollbar
vscrollbar = sw.get_vscrollbar()
# 1rst attempt
# qltk.add_css(vscrollbar, '* slider {min-width: 20px;}')
#2nd attempt
qltk.add_css(vscrollbar, 'scrollbar.vertical slider {min-width: 20px;}')
I've got same error with 2 attempts:
'min-width' is not a valid property name (3)
Update 1
I try #Herbalist solution, scrollbar component is resized but "slider" always have same size. It add spaces on right and on left of "slider".
vscrollbar.set_size_request(50,-1)
Is it possible to resize slider of scrollbar ?
Screenshot of result (I outline part of scrollbar in green):
I'm not able to success with css, so I use deprecated method:
GtkRange:slider-width has been deprecated since version 3.20 and
should not be used in newly-written code.
Use the min-height/min-width CSS properties on the slider element. The
value of this style property is ignored.
As this:
qltk.add_css(vscrollbar, '* {-GtkRange-slider-width:40px}')
get_vscrollbar() returns a Gtk.Widget so you could try setting the "width-request" property

Disable width and height fields from image properties windows

Disable width and height fields from image properties I am using ckeditor 4
CKEDITOR.replace('<%=txtCkEditor.ClientID %>', {allowedContent:'img[!src,alt];'});
By using above method it shows only image properties with width and height hidden and rest of the controls also get visible false. Kindly suggest me a solution for disabling the width and height fields from image properties windows.
Thanks in advance.
I'm not sure I entirely understand your question. It seems you want to hide the fields that allow input of height and width. Your initial solution doesn't seem to affect the dialog box, but what content gets saved. These are very different kinds of solutions. My answer assumes you're seeking to alter the image properties dialog box fields.
Based on this earlier question, I recommend adding the following configuration:
CKEDITOR.on('dialogDefinition', function(ev) {
var editor = ev.editor;
var dialogName = ev.data.name;
var dialogDefinition = ev.data.definition;
if (dialogName == 'image') {
var infoTab = dialogDefinition.getContents( 'info' );
infoTab.remove( 'txtWidth' ); // Remove width element from Info tab
infoTab.remove( 'txtHeight' ); // Remove height element from Info tab
}
});

How to create vertical "pages" where each page is height of the viewport using Bootstrap and Angular?

I am using Angular 1.3 and Bootstrap 3.2. I want to create a single webpage that does exactly this: http://lewisking.net. i.e. I want to be able to have vertically stacked divs that are the height of the viewport. I'm thinking of making a directive that watches the browser height/width and updates the style accordingly.
Any other ideas? Any tips for implementing with a directive?
This is the perfect use case for vh and vw.
Simply set:
.wrapper {
width: 100vw;
height: 100vh;
}
And it will work out the box. If you have to support any old browsers you can easily do a quick JS fall back.
CSS will get you part of the way, but you will need JS to update your 100% height on resize
and scrollTop points etc. And you will also need a way to animate the scroll anyway. This isn't exactly what I would do but it explains the basic idea.
$($window).on('resize', function() {
$scope.winWidth = $(window).width();
$scope.winHeight = $(window).height();
});
...
$scope.getSectionStyle = function(){
return {width:$scope.winWidth, height:$scope.winHeight} ;
}
...
<section id="sectionId" ng-style="getSectionStyle()"
To animate the scroll I just use jQuery like. If you're a angular purist there is $achorScoll but it has no animating at this point so you need to do some extra factory or directive like https://github.com/durated/angular-scroll/
$rootScope.scrollTo = function(_to){
$("html, body").delay(300).animate({scrollTop:_to},{ easing: "easeOutExpo"}, 2000);
}
To get _to you just find the elements offset().top something like :
var offset = $('#sectionId').offset();
$rootScope.scrollTo(offset.top);

is it even possible to expand a (horizontal) list's background with ajax?

I've got a list with list-style-none which needs to be able to add new items to itself via Ajax and have the background expand appropriately when it does. Adding via Ajax is easy, but every solution I try for the background fails me. I don't know if it's even possible; is it? I'm using a grid like this one:
http://jqueryui.com/demos/sortable/#display-grid
Both WebKit and Firebug are showing me skinny, empty bars when I hover over the enclosing divs and/or the enclosing ul tag. It appears that the minute you set a list loose with list-style-none and float:wherever, you give up control over its background. But that can't be right.
This is something I've run into a number of times. The problem is that floated elements aren't part of the normal box model, so they don't cause their parent elements to expand unless their parent elements are also floated. So if possible, float the ul or containing div.
Edit:
See quirksmode for another css-only workaround.
Could you provide a sample of your code? Also, why does the list have display:none set?
For instance, should be as simple as this:
HTML:
<ul id="dest"></ul>
JS:
// Simplified example, most likely wrapped in $.ajax
// This is the AJAX response function
function(data, response) {
var items = json.parse(data);
$.each(items, function() {
// Assumes item has a name property
$('#dest').append($('<li>' + this.name + '</li>'));
});
}
Should be just that simple. You shouldn't need the hide the list initially, as you can simply append list items and have the display update appropriately.
Hope that helps.
You need to explicitly set the width and height for the area.
Check out this link for Horizontal Scrolling: http://valums.com/scroll-menu-jquery/
Here is the script:
$(function(){
//Get our elements for faster access and set overlay width
var div = $('div.sc_menu'),
ul = $('ul.sc_menu'),
// unordered list's left margin
ulPadding = 15;
//Get menu width
var divWidth = div.width();
//Remove scrollbars
div.css({overflow: 'hidden'});
//Find last image container
var lastLi = ul.find('li:last-child');
//When user move mouse over menu
div.mousemove(function(e){
//As images are loaded ul width increases,
//so we recalculate it each time
var ulWidth = lastLi[0].offsetLeft + lastLi.outerWidth() + ulPadding;
var left = (e.pageX - div.offset().left) * (ulWidth-divWidth) / divWidth;
div.scrollLeft(left);
});
});
Basically, you need to update the ulWidth and divWidth when you add the new item.
Then just set the background image to repeat horizontally and you should be set.
ul.sc_menu {background:transparent url(image.png) repeat scroll 0 0;height:100px}
Note: You will need to set the height; otherwise you will not see the background because the li are floated.
For dealing with the float element, maybe you should know it's characteristic, gotcha, and how to deal with it.
See the links below, it also have demo, so you can understand the concept:
