I'm new to react native and i'm trying to display some text in a custom touchable opacity. but the text keep exceeding the border even when i'm using flex wrap. my code is the following:
<View style={styles.main_container} >
<View style={styles.ctr1}>
<TouchableOpacity style={{ flexDirection: 'row' }} >
<Image style={styles.img} source={{ uri:`data:image/gif;base64,${encodedData}`}}/>
<View>
<Text style={styles.txt}> k </Text>
<Text style={{ flexWrap:1 }} > ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd </Text>
<Text> kk </Text>
</View>
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
</View>
and here is look of the styles i used:
main_container: {
flex: 1,
height: 300,
flexDirection: 'column',
backgroundColor: "grey",
width: '95%',
margin: 10,
},
ctr1: {
flex: 1,
flexDirection: 'row',
backgroundColor: 'white',
//margin: 2,
},
How can i wrap it
Issue was not in the <Text> element that you have given the style flexWrap:1. Problem was in the parent elements.
Adding flex: 1 to <TouchableOpacity> and <View> which contains your <text> will solve the problem.
This will do the calculation for width depends on the device width.
<View style={styEdit.main_container}>
<View style={styEdit.ctr1}>
<TouchableOpacity style={{ flexDirection: 'row', flex: 1 }} >
<Image style={styles.img} source={{ uri:`data:image/gif;base64,${encodedData}`}}/>
<View style={{ flexDirection: 'column', flex: 1 }}>
<Text style={styEdit.txt}>k</Text>
<Text>ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd---</Text>
<Text>kk</Text>
</View>
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
</View>
Tested the code in my machine.
Cheers!
When using styles to move buttons where I want them, the touchable area where you can press the button remains in the same place and doesn't follow the button. This makes the button unresponsive and can only be pressed if you find the original location!
I've tried:
using TouchableWithoutFeedback.
Moving the order of the components
Putting all sorts in the style reference.
Here's the render:
render() {
if((this.state.isOn) === true){
return(
<ImageBackground source={require('./assets/water-in-glass.gif')} style={styles.container}>
<Text>Timer:{ms(this.state.time,{verbose: true})}</Text>
<TouchableOpacity
onPressIn={this.onItemMouseDown}
onPressOut={this.onItemMouseUp}
>
<View>
<Image source={require('./assets/MyButton.png')}/>
</View>
</TouchableOpacity>
<TouchableOpacity
onPress={this.resetTimer}
>
<View>
<View style={styles.resetbutton}>
<Text style={styles.text}>Reset Timer</Text>
</View>
</View>
</TouchableOpacity>
<TouchableOpacity
onPress={this.onSubmit}
>
<View>
<View style={styles.submitbutton}>
<Text style={styles.text}>Done!</Text>
</View>
</View>
</TouchableOpacity>
</ImageBackground>
)
} else if ((this.state.isOn) === false){
return(
<ImageBackground source={require('./assets/water-in-glass.gif')} style={styles.container}>
<Text>Timer:{ms(this.state.time)}</Text>
<TouchableOpacity
onPressIn={this.onItemMouseDown}
onPressOut={this.onItemMouseUp}
>
<View>
<Image source={require('./assets/MyButton.png')}/>
</View>
</TouchableOpacity>
<TouchableOpacity
onPress={this.resetTimer}
>
<View>
<View style={styles.resetbutton}>
<Text style={styles.text}>Reset Timer</Text>
</View>
</View>
</TouchableOpacity>
<TouchableOpacity
onPress={this.onSubmit}
>
<View>
<View style={styles.submitbutton}>
<Text style={styles.text}>Done!</Text>
</View>
</View>
</TouchableOpacity>
{this.state.scoreArray.map(function(item,i){
return (i < 5) ? <Text key={i}>{item}</Text> : null}).filter(x=>x)
}
<Text>
{this.state.animalArray.map(function(item,i){
return (i < 5) ? <Text key={i}>{item}</Text> : null}).filter(x=>x)
}
</Text>
</ImageBackground>
here's the styling:
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
backgroundColor: '#fff',
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent: 'center',
},
pissbutton: {
padding: 10,
borderWidth: 3,
borderColor: '#111'
},
resetbutton: {
padding: 10,
borderWidth: 3,
backgroundColor: '#ed1c42'
},
submitbutton: {
marginBottom: 36,
top: 100,
padding: 10,
borderWidth: 3,
backgroundColor: '#42f471'
}
});
I expect when I use styling to move the buttons, they remain responsive, instead of moving, but the hotspot remaining where it is.
Figured it.
The button needed it's own container:
submitbuttoncontainer:{
position: 'absolute',
bottom: 50,
},
submitbutton: {
color: 'white',
fontWeight: 'bold',
fontSize: 12,
justifyContent: 'center',
width: 100,
alignItems: 'center',
}
Wow. That's totally not clear anywhere. I suspect it's my lack of basic knowledge in coding.
I am new in react native and I have to design a screen and when list going longer I realised my scroll view is not working here is below my code please share suggestion...Thanks!
<View style={{flex:1}}>
<ActionBar
containerStyle={{height:60,alignItems: 'center'}}
backgroundColor={'#fff'}
title={'Select Categories'}
titleStyle={styles.pageTitle}
onLeftPress={() => goBack()}
leftIconContainerStyle={{marginTop:22}}
leftIconName={'back'}
leftIconImageStyle={{backgroundColor:'#333',height:18,width:18}}
/>
<Image source={require('../images/bg-login.jpg')}
style={{position:'absolute',left:0,right:0,top:0,bottom:0}} />
<ScrollView style={{backgroundColor:'#00000000',position:'absolute',left:0,right:0,top:0,bottom:0}} >
{views}
</ScrollView>
<View style={styles.footerSec}>
<TouchableOpacity style={styles.nextBtn}
onPress={()=> {this.props.navigation.navigate('Tutorials',{tutId:this.state.selectedCats})}}>
<Text style={[styles.btnText, styles.priceText]}>Next</Text>
</TouchableOpacity>
</View>
</View>
Here is my list code:
<TouchableOpacity key={itemData[j]._id}
onPress = {() => {
activeItem ? this.removeCat(itemData[j]._id) : this.insertCat(itemData[j]._id)
}}>
<View style={{position:'relative'}}>
<LinearGradient colors={activeItem ? ['#cb5fb1', '#f874d8', '#f98bde'] :['#ffb6cf','#ffb6cf','#ffb6cf'] } style={{
position: 'absolute',
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent:'center',
backgroundColor: '#f673d7',
width: armSize,
height: armSize,
borderRadius: (armSize) / 2,
top: topp,
left: leftp,
}}>
<Text style={{
color: '#fff',
alignSelf:'center',
fontSize: RandomNumber,
fontWeight: '600',
}}>
{itemData[j].name}
</Text>
</LinearGradient>
</View>
</TouchableOpacity>
I designed below screen but the scroll view bounce and come up on same position...I think this is because of child position style but it's required for the circle in row. I can't scroll for below circles that's the issue.
You could use normal Image to put a background image using position='absolute' and setting background color opacity of ScrollView to #00000000 which means that will be transparent
Example
<Image
source={require('../images/bg-login.jpg')}
style={{position:'absolute',
left:0,
right:0,
top:0,
bottom:0}} />
<ScrollView
style={{backgroundColor:'#00000000',
position:'absolute',
left:0,
right:0,
top:0,
bottom:0}} >
<View>
<Text>Some content</Text>
</View>
</ScrollView>
For the scroll view issues I used below code and it's working fine everywhere
<ScrollView contentContainerStyle={{ paddingBottom: 120 }}>
---code---
</ScrollView>
I have 6 View components (shown in the picture) , I want to have space between all 6 View components.
My code:
<View style={{flexDirection:'column',flex:6}}>
<View style={{flex:2,flexDirection:"row",justifyContent:'space-between'}}>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'red',flex:1}}>
</View>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'blue',flex:1}}>
</View>
</View>
<View style={{flex:2,flexDirection:"row",justifyContent:'space-between'}}>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'white',flex:1}}>
</View>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'black',flex:1}}>
</View>
</View>
<View style={{flex:2,flexDirection:"row",justifyContent:'space-between'}}>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'gray',flex:1}}>
</View>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'yellow',flex:1}}>
</View>
</View>
</View>
Try to add padding to the element then and another blank view in each row, padding make space between each item
<View style={{
flexDirection:'column',
flex:1,
}}>
<View style={{flex:2,flexDirection:"row",justifyContent:'space-between',padding:10}}>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'red',flex:2,padding:10}}>
</View>
<View style={{flex:0.1}}/>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'blue',flex:2,padding:10}}>
</View>
</View>
<View style={{flex:2,flexDirection:"row",justifyContent:'space-between',padding:10}}>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'white',flex:2,padding:10}}>
</View>
<View style={{flex:0.1}}/>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'black',flex:2,padding:10}}>
</View>
</View>
<View style={{flex:2,flexDirection:"row",justifyContent:'space-between',padding:10}}>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'gray',flex:1,padding:10}}>
</View>
<View style={{flex:0.1}}/>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'yellow',flex:1,padding:10}}>
</View>
</View>
You can simply add margins to the elements and it will work fine.
<View style={{flexDirection:'column',flex:6}}>
<View style={{flex:2,flexDirection:"row",justifyContent:'space-between', marginBottom: 10}}>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'red',flex:1, marginRight: 5}}>
</View>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'blue',flex:1, marginLeft: 5}}>
</View>
</View>
<View style={{flex:2,flexDirection:"row",justifyContent:'space-between', marginBottom: 10}}>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'white',flex:1, marginRight: 5}}>
</View>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'black',flex:1, marginLeft: 5}}>
</View>
</View>
<View style={{flex:2,flexDirection:"row",justifyContent:'space-between', marginBottom: 10}}>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'gray',flex:1, marginRight: 5}}>
</View>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'yellow',flex:1, marginLeft: 5}}>
</View>
</View>
</View>
As of React Native 0.71.0, you can use the gap property. These child views will have a gap of 10 pixels between each row / column.
<View style={{flexDirection:'column', gap: 10 }}>
<View />
<View />
<View />
<View />
<View />
<View />
</View>
If you are using the map function to render your components, you can try the following code:
// Change to the number of columns in your grid
const numCols = 4;
// Change to the spacing for each item
const spacing = '1.25rem';
// Parent View
<View style={{
flex: 1,
flexDirection: 'row',
flexWrap: 'wrap',
}}
>
{// List of child views to render
contents.map((content, index) => (
// add a margin of 'spacing' to the bottom of all cards
// will supply a left-margin to all cards in between the gap,
// everytime a card is NOT divisible numCols, add a margin to the left
<View style={{
marginBottom : spacing,
marginLeft: index % numCols !== 0 ? spacing : 0
}}
>
<Card
key={index}
content={content}
/>
</View>
))
}
</View>
I found that using the following code snippet will create an effect similar to gap in css grids.
Give the following styling to the parent container (Block/View).
justifyContent: 'space-around'
OR
justifyContent: 'space-between'
Space-around will put space between all the elements/view/items and also add space to the borders. Same as all elements get the margin.
And the space-between will put the space between all items, without adding space to the borders
All this stuff is explained here beautifully. Here is the link
Try this
const Component = () => {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<View style={styles.child}></View>
<View style={styles.child}></View>
</View>
);
};
// Gap you want to achieve
const gap = 8;
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flexDirection: "row",
paddingHorizontal: (gap / -2),
},
child: {
marginHorizontal: gap / 2,
},
});
For me, the solution, among using justify-content: 'space-between', was to explicitly give width to the parent view (in my case, width: '100%'), otherwise, 'space-between' didn't do anything.
you have 2 solutions in this case
first, use margin/padding for make air between flex element
and the other way is set justifyContent to 'space-between' || 'space-around'
but you must know about some information to use the best solution in a different case
1- (margin-padding)
in some case (more case), padding better margin
as you know, if we have a box ( means element ), you have two space,
first between content and border [ Inner space ]
second, space between the border and another foreign box element [ outer space ]
if you have an element and you want move element in your style you must use margin, because if you use padding for your element, inner space changed and in many cases, this approach creates some crash in your element,
{{ if you want to use padding you must create one View and wrap all of your element and set the padding for a wrapper for you }}
and if you want to use space-between || space-around, you must know this,
space-between and space-around have one diff
in space-between, space produced between elements and not create space between your element with sides
and space-around set space with elements and with sides
You can give the parent a negative margin in the same direction you use on the children.
const Comp: FC = () => {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<View style={styles.item}></View>
<View style={styles.item}></View>
<View style={styles.item}></View>
<View style={styles.item}></View>
</View>
)
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
item: {
// Just for visual representation:
borderWidth: 2,
borderColor: '#FF0000',
height: 100,
// Important styles:
marginRight: 15,
flexBasis: '40%',
flexGrow: 1,
},
container: {
// Important styles:
marginRight: -15,
flexDirection: 'row',
flexWrap: 'wrap',
},
});
export default Comp;
<View style={{ flexDirection: "row", flexWrap: "wrap" }}>
{Array(30)
.fill({ name: "product name" })
.map((item, key, arr) => (
<View
key={key}
style={{
height: 200,
paddingTop: 15,
backgroundColor: "skyblue",
...(key % 2 !== 0
? { paddingRight: 15, paddingLeft: 15 }
: { paddingLeft: 15 }),
flexBasis: "50%",
}}
>
<View
style={{
flex: 1,
backgroundColor: variables?.BackgroundLight,
}}
>
<Text style={styles && { ...styles?.text }}>{item.name}</Text>
</View>
</View>
))}
</View>
Try this out. You can better control it using array map
If you want to put some vertical space, without flex, this is simple (just for temporary use)
<View style={{flex:2,flexDirection:"row",flexWrap: 'wrap'}}>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'white',flex:1,marginHorizontal:5,marginVertical:10,}}>
</View>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'black',flex:1,marginHorizontal:5,marginVertical:10,}}>
</View>
</View>
<View style={{flex:2,flexDirection:"row",flexWrap: 'wrap'}}>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'gray',flex:1,marginHorizontal:5,marginVertical:10,}}>
</View>
<View style={{backgroundColor:'yellow',flex:1,marginHorizontal:5,marginVertical:10,}}>
</View>
</View>
You can add the following in your style:
attachcontainer{
flexDirection: 'row',
justifyContent: 'space-between'
}
