When the datatype is Date, the kendo grid uses a kendo datepicker with dropdown calendar for the column.
The datepicker's dropdown calendar usually aligns itself flush with the left edge of the input box. If there isn't room for that, it is moved to the left, but not quite enough. This presents a problem when the rightmost column in the grid is a Date, and the grid is occupying 100% of the width available on the screen: the Saturday column in the dropdown calendar gets "cut off". See pic attached.
Is it possible to tell the calendar dropdown (for a particular column) to align itself flush with the right edge of the text input?
I know that bug. Your datepicker animation container is hidden under right scrollbar. If you set body overflow to hidden, you will not have a scrollbars and calendar will fit and touch right border of screen, like in this example: http://dojo.telerik.com/UCOhA
However if you can't turn off the body scrollbars you need to set calendar position manually dirty way like this:
$("#piker").kendoDatePicker({
open: function(e) {
//setTimeout to let kendo make k-animation-container element at first open
setTimeout(function(){
var animationContainer = $("#" + e.sender.element.attr("id") + "_dateview").parent();
var left = e.sender.element.offset().left + e.sender.element.closest('.k-datepicker').width() - animationContainer.width();
animationContainer.css('left', left);
});
},
//turnoff the animation to avoid strange visual effects
animation: {
open: {
duration: 0
}
}
});
Running example: http://dojo.telerik.com/Imiqa/2

I've got a Xamarin Forms cross-platform application (iOS and Android), and on one of the screens I want a list with details:
Heading 1
Detail 1
Detail 2
Detail 3
Heading 2
Detail 1
Heading 3
Detail 1
Detail 2
As you can see, the amount of detail under each heading is variable.
I want the page to display at first with just the headings:
Heading 1
Heading 2
Heading 3
And then when the user presses on a heading, the details for that particular heading appear. Pretty standard stuff.
I've tried several different ways to get this to work, the only path that seems open to me is to have a StackLayout where I define a bunch of labels:
new StackLayout
{
Orientation = StackOrientation.Vertical,
Children =
{
new Label { Text = "Heading 1" },
new Label { Text = " Detail 1\n Detail 2\n Detail 3", IsVisible = false },
new Label { Text = "Heading 2" },
new Label { Text = " Detail 1", IsVisible = false },
new Label { Text = "Heading 3" },
new Label { Text = " Detail 1\n Detail 2", IsVisible = false }
}
}
I then add a TapGestureRecognizer to the heading labels, and when tapped I toggle the value of IsVisible for the detail labels. It works!
The only thing I don't like, is that there is no transition. I click on the heading label and BAM the detail label appears (correctly pushing down all the following labels to make space for itself). I would like an animation so that when I click on the header, the space beneath the header "slowly" opens up to reveal the detail.
As I read about animations online, one possibility is to set the HeightRequest of the detail labels to zero (instead of hiding them with IsVisible=false) and then creating an animation that "slowly" changes the HeightRequest from zero to the actual height of the label. And that's where I run into a problem.
I can't figure out how to get Xamarin to tell me the height of my "details" label.
If I inspect the Height and HeightRequest properties of my details label right after creating it, they are both -1 (no big surprise there). If I inspect those same two properties when I click on the heading, they are still -1. The only way I've found to get the height of my detail label, is to set the detail label visible, call ForceLayout() on my stack layout, store the detail label height, and then set the detail label invisible again. The problem with that is that I sometimes see the detail label flash visible for an instant while I do this.
What's the best/recommended way to accomplish my desired UI?
You can use the Animation API.
Read the blog about it - Creating Animations with Xamarin.Forms.
In particular for your scenario you can use the FadeTo method to animate the Opacity property of a Visual Element.
Eg :
await image.FadeTo (1, 4000);
For more information, see Animation.
In your case my suggested approach would be for showing a label, to set opacity of label to 0, then make it visible, and then use FadeTo to make the opacity to 1.
Use the opposite to hide the label, set opacity 0 via FadeTo, then set IsVisible to false.
If I understand right your problem the only thing you need is to avoid the flash on the label, if this is the case then you can set the Opacity to 0, in this way the label will not be visible until you set again the opacity to 1.
I can suggest you to make a custom XF control (to use as item DataTemplate) as follow:
2 vertical parts:
The header part (A) (when you click on it it will show the second part)
The second part is a 'Listview' control (B) that is empty at the beginning
When you click on (A):
it will show (B)
It will start to populate (B) with your details elements
The trick in my mind is to implement a method that populate the listview (B) item by item (getting them from your viewmodel) with some delay (a few milliseconds) between each insertion and maybe a 'fadeTo' effect too in the same time.
You can see here what I mean (see the "Fade" section):
Insert / fade list item effect sample in HTML
You can improve your template as you want, by embedding the two parts into a 'border' for instance, to make a graphical separation...
Tell me if it's unclear, all you need is time :)
And maybe if you are ready, you can try to make native controls / animations...
When I set the textbox's anchor to top,bottom,left,right the textbox still stays on the top. I don't understand, this seems to work for labels and buttons. I kinda need this anchor property for it to adapt well to a form resize.
I'm sorry if I'm missing something incredibly obvious.
If I understand your question, you want a single line textbox to appear centered vertically and horizontally in your form. Still without showing more than one line. In this case you could set just the Anchor Left and Right property to have you textbox centered horizontally on the form, but for the vertical position you need to work with code adjusting the Iop property of the textbox in the Resize event of the form
For example, after the call to InitializeCompoment of your form you could add the following code to center your textbox (C# but easily convertible to VB.NET)
textBox1.Left = 10;
textBox1.Width = yourForm.ClientSize.Width - 20;
textBox1.Top = (yourForm.ClientSize.Height / 2) - yourForm.Height / 2;
textBox1.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Left | AnchorStyles.Right;
and then add the event handler for the resize event of your form where you could call again the vertical repositioning of the textbox
protected void yourForm_Resize(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
textBox1.Top = (this.ClientSize.Height / 2) - textBox1.Height / 2;
}
I'm looking for a chart for displaying my values over a long time period. The problem is due to the timeline most charts are useless because there are to many points in it and I can't zoom in or out.
So I'm looking for a chart where I load my complete data and the user can choose which data he wants (e.g. Values1, values2) and click into the chart to see only that timespan he wants.
A perfect example is http://dataaddict.fr/prenoms but I don't know where to find a similar chart that I could use. I searched for hours but didn't find anything similar. On the left side the user could choose the data he wants and under the charts the user can choose the timespan.
I hope someone has a good tip for me :) Thanks!
Disclaimer: I am new at javascript and d3.js, so please be skeptical of everything I say, but I will try to help you.
I was able to solve a similar problem by creating a set of regular HTML buttons below the chart (with svg rects inside of each button to create a color square in each button).
//Create the legend div
var legendHtml = "<div style='width:" + (w+marginLeft+marginRight) + "px;'>";
//Size of Squares in legend buttons
var legendRectSize = 9;
//Create a button for each item
varNames.forEach(function(element, index){
legendHtml = legendHtml + "<button class='legend clickable active' id='" + varNames[index] + "'><svg width='9' height='9'><g><rect width='"+legendRectSize+"' height='"+legendRectSize+"' style='fill:" + color(varNames[index]) + ";'></rect></g></svg> " + varNames[index] + "</button>";
});
//Close out the legend div
legendHtml = legendHtml + "</div>";
I then added the a new legend div below my chart, which happened to be in a div with the id "employment."
//Add the legend div to the bottom of the chart
var legendDiv = document.createElement("div");
var legendIdAtt = document.createAttribute("id");
legendIdAtt.value = "legend";
legendDiv.setAttributeNode(legendIdAtt);
document.getElementById('employment').appendChild(legendDiv);
document.getElementById('legend').innerHTML = legendHtml;
Finally, I added an event listener to the legend (specifically the class 'clickable') that updates the chart by updating, adding, or removing the new data. I used jquery to do this because I was finding the the built in d3.on() method was not working on nodes that are dynamically created after the document loads.
//Event listener for updating the chart
$('body').on('click', '.clickable', function () {
var id = $(this).attr('id');
//Toggle the buttons active or not active
if ($(this).hasClass("active")) {
$(this).removeClass("active");
} else {
$(this).addClass("active");
}
change(id);
});
Your change function will be different depending on what you want to do, but in my case, I made sure that the id for the buttons was the same as the variable names in the data (I originally set the id by calling the variable names), and then went through the general update pattern to updates my line graph. This article helped me understand d3's general update pattern: http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/3808218
Hope that helps! Cheers!
Edit:
You should be able to make one set of buttons that adds, updates, and subtracts data based on the data the user wants to add to the cart using this approach. You could use a similar method to create a set of html buttons that, when clicked, update the domain of the x scale.
I'm using SlickGrid and struggling to find an elegant solution to the following:
All columns must have a specific initial width when first rendered but be resizable afterwards
The final column should auto fill the remaining column space when the window is resized
I've seen:
Make one column fill remaining space in SlickGrid without messing up explicit width columns
resizing of grid when resizing browser window
How do I autosize the column in SlickGrid?
But these don't seem to quite do what I need.
If I use the forceFitColumns option, then all columns will autosize (unless I put a maxsize on them).
Using resizeCanvas on window.resize works well - but it still only works if forceFitColumns is true.
If I set minWidth=maxWidth - then I can't resize the column.
Any suggestions?
I'm not sure it would correct all your problem but in my case I do use the forceFitColumns and then depending how I want my column to react in size I will use a combination of minWidth and width, and in some cases the ones that will never exceed a certain width, I would then use a maxWidth as well. Now the problem you have is when setting the minWidth to be the same with as maxWidth this of course will make it unresizable, well think about it you set a minimum and a maximum, SlickGrid is respecting it by now being able to size it afterwards. I also have my grid which takes 95% width of my screen so I have a little padding on the side and with it I use a auto-resize using jQuery.
Here is my code:
// HTML Grid Container
<div id="myGridContainer" style="width:95%;">
<div class="grid-header" style="width:100%">
<label>ECO: Log / Slickgrid</label>
<span style="float:right" class="ui-icon ui-icon-search" title="Toggle search panel" onclick="toggleFilterRow1()"></span>
</div>
<div id="myGrid" style="width:100%;height:600px;"></div>
<div id="myPager"></div>
</div>
// My SlickGrid Options
var options = {
enableCellNavigation: true,
forceFitColumns: true
};
// The browser auto-resize
$(window).resize(function () {
$("#myGrid").width($("myGridContainer").width());
$(".slick-viewport").width($("#myGrid").width());
grid.resizeCanvas();
});
EDIT
I also was annoyed by the fact that using all of these together is blocking you from resizing the width of the column. I came up with a different solution, much later after, which makes the fields to expand (take available width) and does not block you afterwards on resizing the width. So this new solution I believe is giving you exactly what you are looking for... First of all remove the maxWidth property and only use minWidth and width, actually you could probably use only the width if you wanted. Now I had to unfortunately, modify 1 of the core file slick.grid.js with the following code:
//-- slick.grid.js --//
// on line 69 insert this code
autoExpandColumns: false,
// on line 1614 PREVIOUS CODE
if (options.forceFitColumns) {
autosizeColumns();
}
// on line 1614 change to this NEW CODE
if (options.forceFitColumns || options.autoExpandColumns) {
autosizeColumns();
}
then going back to my grid definition, I replace my previous options with this:
// My NEW SlickGrid Options
var options = {
enableCellNavigation: true,
forceFitColumns: false, // make sure the force fit is false
autoExpandColumns: true // <-- our new property is now usable
};
with this new change it has some functionality of the force fit (expanding) but does not restrict you on resizing your columns width afterwards like the force fit does. I also tested it with the columnPicker, if you hide a column it's resizing the others accordingly. I also modified the file slick.columnpicker.js to include a checkbox for that property but that is totally optional...I can add the code for that too if any of you want it as well. Voila!!! :)
EDIT #2
I realized much later that there's no need to modify the core file, we can simply call grid.autosizeColumns() after the grid creation. Like this
var options = { forceFitColumns: false };
grid = new Slick.Grid("#myGrid", data, columns, options);
// will take available space only on first load
grid.autosizeColumns();
This will automatically resize the columns to fit the screen on first load but will not give you the restriction of the forceFitcolumns flag.
I know it's kind late for this reply.
But i've managed to do that without having to change things at slick.grid.js or set min/maxWidth at columns array.
Instead what i did was to iterate through the columns array adding the values of "width" field of each column and then i've did a simple math count to set the last column width as innerWidth - totalColumsWidth + lastColumnWidth.
Code:
function lastColumnWidth(columns)
{
var widthSum = 0;
angular.forEach(columns, function(col) {
if(col.width) { widthSum = col.width + widthSum; }
});
if(window.innerWidth > widthSum) {
columns[columns.length-1].width = columns[columns.length-1].width + (window.innerWidth - widthSum);
}
return columns;
}
There seems to be a bug in jqgrid, where one can not resize the last column.
This seems to be a quite old issue raised in 2009. I had a look and the latest jqGrid sample seems to have this issue...
What I found however was that last column can be dragged to resize the grid itself.
See here Go to section what is new in 3.6.
Any pointers if this is already fixed.
Seems I found a solution.
Resizing of the last column can be done only within the area of the header wrapper (div.ui-jqgrid-hbox). In the outer space resizing process losing focus.
Because of existing some padding-right area with default 20 pixels, increasing the size can be done in this small part only.
In addition, we need to temporarily cancel table wrapper influence, because he also cause to stop resizing process.
Here is my solution. I assume, that your table wrapper id is gbox_DataTable_u:
1:
CSS: define new wide padding-right area:
.ui-jqgrid .ui-jqgrid-hbox {float: left; padding-right: 10000px;}
2:
Append 2 events to your grid:
resizeStart:function(event, index){ $('#gbox_DataTable_u').width($('#gbox_DataTable_u').outerWidth() + 10000);}
resizeStop: function(width, index) {$('#gbox_DataTable_u').width($('#DataTable_u').outerWidth());}
Example of working table: http://www.design.atplogic.co.il/aman/philips/users.htm#
I found that the best way is to add an empty unresizable column in the end of the grid.
I'm just doing it manually, by extending the colModel right before the execution of jqgrid constructor. Only problem being - I wasn't able to make it not draggable so far.
Here's an example:
colModel.push({align: "left", editable: false, hidden: false, index: "ghostCol", label: " ", name: "ghostCol", resizable: false, sortable: false, type: "text", width: 50});
Hope this helps.
It is resizing fine for me as well, although you have to resize from the right on the "RTL Support" example, which seems to make sense.
Also be aware that if you are using Chrome, there is a jqGrid bug that causes horizontal scroll bars to appear - see jqgrid-does-not-render-correctly-in-chrome-chrome-frame. This issue has since been resolved, but the demo page has not been updated yet. And it certainly gives the appearance of the last column's resizing not working because you have to scroll all the way over to the right before you can resize the last column.
I have tried to resize the last column with resizeStop, i do some trick like the other guy said. hope it help.
resizeStop(width, index) { var amGrid = $("#jsonmap"), colModel =
$("#jsonmap").jqGrid('getGridParam','colModel'); var oW =
$oldWidths[index]; var cW = colModel[index+1].width+
downCalSize(oW,width); $oldWidths[index+1] = cW; $oldWidths[index] =
width;
$('.ui-jqgrid-labels > th:eq('+(index+1)+')').css('width',cW);
$('#jsonmap .jqgfirstrow > td:eq('+(index+1)+')').css('width',cW);
var w = amGrid.jqGrid('getGridParam', 'width');
$('.ui-jqgrid-htable').css("width",w);
$('.ui-jqgrid-btable').css("width",w); }
i still looking for a common way, can do on more tables in one page and don't affect to each other.
After 2 days of struggling...I finally found a way to work around.
It seems that jqGrid calculates the resizing object in the dragMove event, where it uses passed event object to get the position of mouse and calculates the new width of resizing column. However when dragging exceeds the grid's boundry, the dragMove event stop shooting...
So my work around is simply modifying jqGrid to calculates resizing object again in the dragEnd event. Here's the modified code
first find the dragEnd event.
...
dragEnd: function(e) { // add a new input parameter
this.hDiv.style.cursor = "default";
if(this.resizing) {
this.dragMove(e); // call dragMove event to calculate resize object
...
then find the mouseup event where dragEvent is triggerd...
...
$(document).mouseup(function (e) { // get the event object
if(grid.resizing) { grid.dragEnd(e); return false;}// pass event to dragEnv
return true;
});
...
Then columns should be able to resize to wherever mouse points.
Hope this would help.
