I run computationally expensive code when the cursor changes and this becomes obvious when the user is selecting a lot of text.
I'd like to know if the mouse is down or up so I can ignore the cursor change events if the user is dragging. When they let go of the mouse down button I can run my code on mouse up or on cursor change events when the mouse is up.
Is there a way to tell if the mouse is down in ace editor?
You can use event listeners on ace editor. The mousedown event should help you in this case.
editor.on("mousedown", function () {
console.log("mouse down");
});
There is editor.$mouseHandler.isMousePressed property.
I want to create slider drag functionality which should initiate on mousedown of the handle. Right now, I don't see any event in hammer js that would fire once the element is touched. Is there something built in or do I use plain javascript to detect it?
The version 1.1 had inbuilt touch event.
However, after the rewrite newer version seems to be missing any such event, But you can create such a custom event as shown here, by modifying the tap gestures options.
Something like
var myOptions = { };
var mc = new Hammer.Manager(myElement, myOptions);
mc.add(new Hammer.Tap({ event: 'touch', taps: 1, interval:15, time:10 }));
mc.on("touch", handleTaps);
Or you can use the native touchstart event to detect a touch. However not that you don't have much control over this and will be triggered every time a touch occurs, for eg, like when the user is trying to scroll.
I want to get an event to handle when an rectangle object change its size.
I tried bounds_changed as follow:
google.maps.event.addListener(rectangle, "bounds_changed", function() {
Foo();
});
It works, the problem with bounds_changed is that it is called a lot of time before the user ends to resize the rectangle, so my function 'Foo' runs in any step making my page SLOW.
Is there an event like that I'm looking for? some approach to get it?
Thanks in advance.
I am building a page which contains many charts, which are displayed one at a time depending on which tab you are looking at.
The chart in the initially active tab renders correctly. However when I click to another tab, the chart is not rendered properly.
Presumably this is because the hidden field does not have dimensions until it is made visible. In fact if I resize the window the chart will correct it's proportions, and render so that it fills the available width.
I can fix this problem by explicitly defining the chart size via css, but this defeats the responsive aspect of the charts.
Can anyone tell me how to trigger the same NVD3 event which gets activated when the window resizes? That way I can bind it to the selection of a new tab, and hopefully remedy the rendering issue.
I had the same issue (charts on multiple tabs), and this is the only thing that I could get to work.
$(function () {
$(document).on('shown.bs.tab', 'a[data-toggle="tab"]', function (e) {
window.dispatchEvent(new Event('resize'));
});
});
I have a feeling, however, that all of the charts are being re-rendered, regardless of whether they are on the active tab (visible) or in the non-selected tabs (hidden).
Does anyone know how to ensure ONLY the active chart gets resized / redrawn?
I figured out how to trigger the resize event I needed. In my case the tabs are driven by bootstrap. So I simply modified my bootstrap show tab event to trigger a page resize event as well. It's a little indirect, but it gets the job done:
jQuery('#myTab a').click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault()
jQuery(this).tab('show')
jQuery(window).trigger('resize'); // Added this line to force NVD3 to redraw the chart
})
Just add this JavaScript:
$('a[data-toggle="tab"]').on('shown.bs.tab', function (e) {
window.dispatchEvent(new Event('resize'));
})
hidden.bs.tab is the event that fires after a new tab is shown as per the Bootstrap docs. This code fires a resize event after each tab change.
Reason For New Answer
Vanilla Javascript is necessary for a lot of people in 2018. As a lot of frameworks and Javascript libraries that exist today do not play well with jQuery. Once upon a time answering all Javascript problems with a jQuery solution was acceptable but it is no longer feasible.
Problem
When loading C3.js or D3.js graphs, if the viewport is not actively in site during page load the graphs do not render correctly.
Example
If you type in the URL then open a new tab and then go back after your page loads.
If you refresh the page that has your graphs on it then minimize the browser and open it back up after the page has loaded.
If you refresh or go to the page with the graphs then swipe away to a new window on your computer. Then go back to the page with the graphs after they have loaded.
In all these cases your C3.js / D3.js graphs will not render correctly. Typically you will see a blank canvas. So if you were expecting a bar chart, you would see a canvas without the bars being drawn.
Background
Although I have seen this question answered I needed an answer that did NOT use jQuery. Now that we have reached the days of everything can not be fixed with jQuery I thought it seemed fit to provide a vanilla Javascript answer to this question.
My team faced the issue that the C3.js / D3.js graphs would not load if you refreshed the page and swiped away or minimized. Basically if you did not stay on the page and keep it in site till it was done loading you would not see the graphs till you resized the page again. I know this is a problem that happens to everyone using C3.js / D3.js but we are specifically using Lightning in Salesforce.
Answer
Our fix was to add this in the controller function that initializes the charts. Anyone can use this in any function they write to initialize their C3.js / D3.js graphs regardless of their stack. This is not Salesforce dependent but it does indeed work if you are facing this issue in Salesforce.
document.addEventListener('visibilitychange', () => {
console.log(document.visibilityState);
window.dispatchEvent(new Event('resize'));
});
I was facing same issue. I was using ng-show to make div hidden . Once I replaced ng-show with ng-if I am able to see graph drawn in expected behavior. Explanation:
When we use ng-show or ng-hide to make div hidden it only changes it display property but div will be in dom.
When we use ng-if div is removed from dom and again added to dom so internally it performs redraw operation on nvd3 graph too. Hence we see correct graph instead of squished one.
The event that usually triggers a redraw is the window resize event -- NVD3 doesn't use a custom event for this. You can control this yourself though; the usual definition is
nv.utils.windowResize(function() { d3.select('#chart svg').call(chart); });
(where "#chart" is the element that contains the graph). There's nothing stopping you triggering the code on another event or even just running the redraw code explicitly when you change the tab.
a more efficient approach would be to use the chart.update() method
var chart_x = nv.models.somechart()
var chart_y = nv.models.somechart()
..... show charts
jQuery('#myTab a').click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault()
jQuery(this).tab('show')
if(jQuery(this)...something === '..x..')
chart_x.update(); //CALL THE UPDATE
else ...
})
I'm using a dojo dijit dialog box to popup data for the lightbox effect.
The problem is that dojo dynamically changes the style attributes of "containerNode", so that if the box is bigger than the browser window a scroll bar appears. It sets "overflow:auto" dynamically.
I know this makes sense to do, but I want to override this and force the user to open up the browsers as the modal/lightbox looks really bad otherwise.
How can I change this behaviour? Sample code would be helpful!
Thanks
You can subscribe to 'show' method of your dialog and modify any styles you need.
dojo.connect(yourDialogWidget, "show", yourDialogWidget, function(){
dojo.style(this.containerNode, "overflow", "hidden");
});
