I'm trying to use the 'up' and 'down' buttons for 'longClick' in a scrollable Card. First, I created the Card and set scrollable to true
var main = new UI.Card({
title: '',
subtitle: '',
body: '',
scrollable: true
});
As stated in the pebble.js documentation: "When true, the up and down button will scroll the content of this Card" http://pebble.github.io/pebblejs/#window
But is there anyway to still use the up and down button in a longClick event such as:
main.on('longClick','down', function(){
console.log('long click');
});
I've tried testing it and making a Card scrollable basically sets up and down to only scroll.
The scroll in Pebble.js windows is Pebble OS's standard scroll. It is able to do a continuous scroll when the button is held down, so long clicks are also inaccessible.
When it comes to displaying huge amounts of texts, having a second window similar to the Pebble's Notification modal window when a notification comes in should help. So if you need to display a huge amount of text, have a second card animate in that shows the large body of text. You can bind the second card's select button to hide the window for the user's convenience, even though back will already back the user out.
I should update the documentation to also note that longClick up and down are also inaccessible when scrollable is enabled, thanks for pointing that out!

I rebuilt a periodic table using QML and stumbled upon the following problem. Due to size limitations I decided to reduce the amount of information that is shown to a minimum and instead implemented the option to hover over a certain element which causes a tooltip to show up, offering more information.
Periodic table
tooltip with more information
My problem is, that when you move the cursor to take a look at a different element, the tooltip will not stop showing immediately but slowly fade out instead. Rambling from side to side with your mouse will show this for example:
delayed tooltips
Is there a way to remove this fadeout and let the tooltips disappear immediately instead? Thanks in advance :)
This is defined in the style you are using. Either you write your own style, a custom ToolTip or overwrite manually every time. To fix it you need to overwrite the exit transition.
Button {
id: button
text: qsTr("Save")
ToolTip {
parent: button
visible: button.hovered
delay: 500
text: "This is a ToolTip"
exit: Transition {}
}
}
I need the ability for a user to press and set an ListView item's checkbox independently of clicking on the item. If they press on the checkbox I will add/remove the checkmark and take some action. If they press on the item text I can take another action.
I can do this with a ListBox no problem with built in functionality. I can't figure out how to do it with a ListView. How is it done?
I can put the following code in the ListView1ItemClickEx to know when the user is clicking on the image. Maybe I can just change the image to a checkmark?
if (ItemObject->Name == "I") {
ShowMessage("Item Image clicked");
}
But I don't know how to change that particular items image (e.g. I could just toggle between a checkmark image and an unchecked image) at runtime.
The picture below is for clarity. Clicking anywhere in the red box will change the items checkbox. For the ListBox clicking anywhere in the blue box will fire the OnClick event and not change the checkbox. I want that same behavior in the ListView.
Ok, Remy answered this related question and it helped me solve this issue. Now I can make the ListView have a checkbox that functions like that of the ListBox. I do it by toggling the item image whenever the user presses (or clicks on) the image area of an item.
When the user clicks an items image I trap it (per Remy's code in the ListView1ItemClickEx event) and toggle it from 0->1 or 1->0 in a vector at reference ItemIndex (e.g. myVector[ItemIndex] = 0) and then I completely rebuild the ListView (clear it and build from scratch).
I thought I'd have to remember where in the list I had scrolled down to and after refreshing the ListView I'd have to scroll to that point in code - but, that isn't the case. I don't know why but after the refresh I'm still at the point in the list where I clicked an item image. It makes it work and feel exactly like a check box.
It works great in iOS, Android, and Windows.
p.s. I forgot to mention that you need to treat any Header's like they are items in your vector that keeps up with each items' image (0 or 1). Otherwise adding headers gets you out of sync and clicking an item's image will toggle some other item's image.
I am new to jQuery and i want to figure out how to select multiple elements for my navigation bar i'm trying to create. I want to have it check if the users mouse is over the item in the navigation bar or over the drop down menu (otherwise the drop down menu would disappear). I have tried to use:
$('#nav_item_1').mouseenter(function(){
//make the drop down menu visible and change nav_item background here
}); `
$('#nav_item_1,#dropdown').mouseleave({
//revert everything back to normal
});
but then when i try to move my mouse from the item in the navigation bar to the drop down menu it reverts everything back to normal.
The issue that you're having is because when you leave the navigation bar item .mouseleave is being triggered instantly hiding the #dropdown with it.
What I would do here is set a slight time out on the mouseleave event of the nav_item about half a second or less to hide the dropdown. This will allow the user the amount of seconds set outside of the navigation bar so that they can hover over the dropdown. After the user is on the #dropdown I would clear the timeout preventing the normal behavior of the dropdown hiding.
How would you do this with code?
$('#nav_item_1').mouseleave(function() {
/* set your time out here to return everything to normal. Because we want to allow the dropdown to stay visible for a fraction of time required to move the cursor to the dropdown.*/
});
And then,
$('#dropdown').mouseenter(function() {
// clear the timer to prevent normal behavior (keeping the dropdown visible).
});

Regarding your original question about selecting multiple items. You are doing it corrently. But as I explained above your code is not reaching the mouseleave event of the #dropdown.
The second piece of code makes it so that when you leave #nav_item_1 OR #dropdown, everything will be reverted. So when you leave the #nav_item_1 to go to the #dropdown, the event will fire.
You could check every mouse move if the current mouse target contains the dropdown or nav_item:
$("#nav_item_1").mouseenter(function () {
// make menu visible etc
}
$(document).mousemove(function (e) { // note the e parameter
if ($(e.target).has("#dropdown,#nav_item_1").length !== 0) {
// revert
}
}
This requires the two elements to be very close to each other in order for it to work properly though.
I've been struggling for weeks trying to crack this nut so I'm not sure if it's impossible, or if it's my lack of coding chops... or both. I'm not a programmer and I'm a newbie to Dojo Toolkit.
I have a site using the BorderContainer layout. I'm trying to create an effect where I can use a button to open and close a dropdown type box that will contain controls. I need this dropdown to be hidden on page load, and then open when you click the button.
My problem is that when I open the dropdown, it pushes the content pane below it off the bottom of the browser window. I need the lower ContentPane to stay fit within the remaining space of the browser window when the dropdown opens. Additionally, I want the dropdown to sit outside of the scrollable container for the content below it, which is why I have it set up to sit outside a nested BorderContainer below it.
I've created a simplified version of the code to demonstrate my challenge (see link below). If you load the page you can see the center ContentPane scrolls the content. But, if you then click on the button, a dropdown div expands above the content. Then when you scroll, you'll notice that you can't see the full pane because it's in no-man's-land below the bottom of the browser window. I assume that because the div is set to display:none on load, it's size is not accounted for on page load. Then, when you open it by pressing the button, it's size is additive and the pane below doesn't know how to resize or account for the new element.
I've tried using the visibility attribute, but that leaves a gap for the div when it's still closed. I've tinkered with some code that controls the height that shows promise, but each of my dropdown boxes will be different sizes so I'd prefer that the height be set to "auto" rather than a specified pixel size.
Does anyone have any idea how I can accomplish this so that the lower pane will fit in the space without pushing off the screen?
Here's a sample of the page:
http://equium.com/scaffold.html
(I had some problems trying to insert the full HTML page here as a code sample so if that's a preferable way to handle it, and someone can let me know the best way to embed all of that code, I'd appreciate it.)
Thanks is advance, I'd really apprecaite anyone's feedback.
You might want to take a look at dojox.layout.ExpandoPane (though be warned I think it has only worked properly for top and left regions for a while).
Also, I'd suggest simplifying/altering your layout a bit. See example here:
http://jsfiddle.net/taFzv/
(It'd probably need some tweaking to get exactly what you want.)
The real issue you're having is probably that the BorderContainer has no idea that parts of the view resized. ExpandoPane takes care of that by telling the BorderContainer to re-layout after its animation completes.
It works under IE8.0. When dropdown box open, just keep pressing mouse from page and drag to bottom, you could see the content was pushed to out of page. It looks the browser could not detect it and could not add it to "scroll bar" account.
I would suggest taking out all BorderContainers except your top level one, the one with mainPage as the id.
Place your {stuff here} div into the mainPage BorderContainer, after the ContentPane with the Close/Open button. Make sure you make it dojotype dijit.layout.ContentPane, set up layoutpriority, and set region to top. Set the height to 0/x when clicking the Open/Close button, instead of setting display.
Try your page again. If that doesn't fix it, you probably need, a call to layout, resize, or both to indicate to the BorderContainer that it needs to evaluate all its children and size the "center" pane properly. Something like dijit.byId("mainPage").layout(); Do this any time someone presses the Close/Open button, after you have changed the height of any BorderContainer children.
Maybe the dijit.form.DropDownButton would fit your needs. When click the button a tooltip is displayed that can be filled with any content you want. Just as you specified, the dropdown tooltip is only displayed when you click the button, and it doesn't mess with the underlying layout at all. The tooltip sits "on top" of the page.

I've got an html template with a nested iFrame that contains a Vimeo video.
When I touch any space AROUND the video, the panel scrolls exactly as expected, however, if I touch the video when trying to scroll, the whole app scrolls (tabbar menu, top toolbar, etc) and the actual panel doesn't scroll to reveal the content further down the page.
Is there a way to make it so that it scrolls properly no matter where on the screen you touch?
You probably want to take a look at the dom events that are being fired and try to stop the ones that are giving you the issue. At worst the user may not be able to scroll when touching the video first.
I had a similar issue with Google Maps (not in an iframe however). If it was embedded in a scrollable panel, the panel would scroll at the same time as interacting with the map. What I did was stop the propagation of the DOM events at the containing element. This resulted in the map being able to scroll/zoom, but the panel no longer responded to the events as well.
domEvent: function(evt, el, o)
{
evt.stopPropagation();
},
somefunction: function(){
this.googleMap.el.on({
tap: this.domEvent,
touchstart:this.domEvent,
touchmove:this.domEvent,
touchdown:this.domEvent,
scroll:this.domEvent,
pinch:this.domEvent,
pinchstart:this.domEvent,
pinchend:this.domEvent
});
}
