The name of the GUI widget? - user-interface

What is the name of the following GUI widget? I would like to use it in GWT.
Thanks

That type of widget is usually known as a carousel. Sometimes people also call it a slide show or slider.
You can see a demo of a GWT MaterialCarousel. By default it only shows one item at a time, but you can configure it to show multiple items as per your picture.

The domino-kit ui framework also has a carousel.

MFC:CDHtmlDialog Purpose/Usages to open other views?

I was thinking of writing a new app where a users selects an option of what procedure they want to perform and the view changes to that until done then goes back to the main menu. I came across CDHtmlDialog and looked like a nice easy way to add a nice looking menu using html. But I wonder if that is the purpose of that class? Can I set it up so when a button or graphic link is clicked it changes out the view to another one (I would need to use traditional things like CTreeView with CListView with a splitter) or is it more for staying within the HTML world?
Thanks.
From the MSDN MSDN documentation
CDHtmlDialog Class is used to create dialog boxes that use HTML rather than dialog resources to implement their user interface.
From what I can gather from your post, I think you should consider SDI application using view classes that you want. To switch views on the command you do not need a splitter window. A static splitter is used to display a number of views in a different part of the splitter simultaneously.

Xamarin master detail page with static header and context menu

I need to do a master detail layout page in Xamarin which then will be used in child pages.
Please check the screenshot below:
I need to have a header part with button for notifications and a button for context menu plus a header.
What is the best approach how I can create this layout in Xamarin?
I will assume that you want to use Xamarin.Forms, instead of using Xamarin.Android and Xamarin.iOS separately.
One approach would be to use default MasterDetailPage as described here or even better to try it with Shell as described here.
Then, you would need to create your CustomNavigationPage and write a custom renderer for it.
Second approach would be to do some tricks, again creating your CustomNavigationPage with template(so that the navigation bar is always displayed) and that you change content dynamically.
Also, you would need to hide default navigation bar and attach click events to your menu button to really open up the menu.
Hope you got it clearly.
MasterDetailPage already provides nearly all functionality that you have asked for, so in some way your question isn't quite clear as you already mention MasterDetailPage. The only remaining problem I can see is how to set up a custom header, and that is than with NavigationPage.TitleView.

How to add RichText editor to a page as component in HippoCMS?

I'm creating some project using HippoCMS 10 and I need to add RichText editor as part of the page, so that customer can use it and fill something there. This editor must act exactly the same way as in Document Editor (customer can click Image button in toolbar and select image from ImagePicker dialog box).
Can't find anything about it in HippoCMS official documentation. I learned how to create custom plugins and how to integrate CKEditor into page separately, but for image picking, I need default behaviour as in Hippo.
How can I achieve this? Any help will be appreciated!
I think your question was answered on the community group. The answer there was:
"it should be quite easy to have a CKEditor in the website.
However, it doesn't really make sense to me to have site visitors able to pick CMS documents and images from the site. The picker dialogs are designed to work inside the CMS only. You should be able to create your own picker dialog that can read from a REST service that exposes the images/documents.
I don't think it will be possible to reuse the CMS picker dialog in the site."
and
"your use case is fine, when I said "it doesn't really make sense", I was really referring to the technical limitations of the pickers. You should be able to achieve what you want with a custom dialog that plugs into a REST service though. Unfortunately there is no quick solution for this that I can think of."
Just adding this for future reference.

MvvmLight and CustomMessageBox

Is there a proper mvvm way to show CustomMessageBox from the view and get callback from it?
This sample is quite nice, but it uses hardcoded MessageBoxButton (only Yes/No/YesNo are avaivable, but i need custom buttons).
This contains lots ofuseful info about Messages in MvvmLight, but DialogMessage is also showing only YesNo sample (also no custom buttons).
Figured out that Cimbalino toolkit (Cimbalino saves the day again!) has quite nice custom messagebox.

Modal popup in Classic ASP?

I write in .NET and in classic ASP.
I want to create a modal popup in ASP, like in .NET how the parent page can be disabled and turned a different color.
Is this possible in ASP?
Or is there no easy solution to get this done?
If possible...how?
You're going to use Javascript to make something like that, I'd recommend you use jQuery. There is a lot of prebuilt libraries to help you do that.
For the modal box, you might start with the jQuery Dialog.
Just use a javascript library to do this. jQuery is a popular choice and there a number of plugins to do this.
jqModal
thickbox
Yes, of course, but if you are writing the Javascript yourself, you can just create a hidden DIV tag that has the same exact page rendered, but with a 15% gray - transparent .gif file that sits on top of what is displayed. Then you change that DIV tag to visable when the Modal dialog is launched, and change it back when it's closed. Simple.
There are some great JS libraries out there that can help you.
I like jQuery and YUI for their ease of use.
Try this link and look around at some of their Panel offerings.. all of which have a Modal setting that will grey out the background.

Good Luck~
" how the parent page can be disabled and turned a different color"
You can use the ibox javascript, I have used it with good results.

I'd put a vote in for stickywin from the clientcide site. Its all Mootools bases and very sweet to use.
