I have just started using angular-gridster library and I am wondering how I can embed an html page in a widget. I mean, how can I 'point' towards an html resource which loads its data separately etc. etc.
For example, I would like to embed a chart of some sort in a widget with the purpose of creating a dashboard.
Thanks!
You can put an iframe element inside of a Gridster widget. From experience, my recommendation is to detect when the user begins resizing a widget with an embedded iframe, and temporarily set display: none on the iframe during the resize, otherwise the browser will have big problems. Once the resize is done, reveal the iframe again.
I have actually solved it using this answer: Widgets with different dynamic content (angular-gridster)
Slightly more complicated than just using an iframe, yes, but then again you have a better modularity - each widget will have its own directive and all that. Thank you emackey!

I want to display HTML in my forms. The problem is I have to use a Boxlayout to place my components. So when I put a WebBrowser I'll have some height and scroll issues. I get the HTML I want to display from a webservice. The length of the content is variable. I just want to display a part of this response. Here is what I already have:
The webBrowser is below the edit button and ends near the LBL_LIB_NOM label.
As you can see the webBrowser is way too high and I can't scroll the Form when I click over the WebBrowser. In this example I would like to reduce the size of the WebBrowser so we can only see the Title. I also would like if possible to scroll my form when I click on the WebBrowser since I don't want the WebBrowser to scroll.
I have tried a few things to solve my issue:
I tried to override the calcPreferredSize method.
I revalidate my form and my webbrowser.
I resized it's container using the deprecated setPreferedSize method.
In that case the container is well sized but the the WebBrowser displays
above the other components.
The usual answer I have seen in other posts is to put the WebBrowser in a BorderLayout but I can't do that.
So here is my question: Is there any other component I can use to display one HTML line ? Or is there a way to make a webBrowser work properly in a boxLayout ? Do I have to write my own HTML renderer ?
I'm guessing you want box layout so you can scroll... This is problematic.
Web views generally expect to scroll themselves and this is common in native widgets which handle their own events and thus scrolling. It's hard for our code to know when your swipe is intended for us or to the underlying native widget and it's harder still to do this in a consistently portable way.
There are 3 options:
Use only Codename One code
Use a border layout or similar layout
Use the web browser for the entire UI of this form
If you want to take the first option this article might be useful as a starting point.
Onsen UI: v2.0.1
AngularJS: 1.5.9
I am building an Android and IOS application that requires dynamic tabs (ons-tab) like in native applications. The content in each tabs can be up to a hundred items. So I want to use ons-lazy-repeat for the ons-tab content to minimize memory consumptions. How do I go about achieving this (dynamic tabs and ons-lazy-repeat ) with Onsen UI. I have searched online and I couldn’t see any solution.
Thank you!
The ons-lazy-repeat component is described in detail in the documentation.
Dynamic tabs can easily be achieved by using the ng-repeat clause of AngularJS. If you don't want to load the content of each tab right at the beginning, you have multiple options like ng-if or ng-include to make sure that only the content of the current visible tab is loaded. You may access and check the visibility of the $index variable that is available in the ng-repeats scope to do so.
See this post how this may be done. Onsen offers a tabbar and tab components which will work the same way as the tab div's in the questions answer.
I am using the Angular Google maps directive to show maps on my webpage. Currently my markers are created using SVG but this is slow as I have to pass my information into a function that creates an SVG in memory to pass to the Google Icon. So I want to replace it with a custom HTML marker which will hopefully be less code and can leverage CSS classes for lots of the heavy lifting.
Unfortunately this isn't available as standard within the Angular Google Maps markers (unless I havent seen it?!)
I found a tutorial on how to do this with Overlays but I need clustering to work with my icons.
How can I do this? Without rewriting everything from scratch? Ideally I'd like to leverage as much of the existing angular-google-maps code as possible
The way I ended up doing this was to put in rich HTML into the labelContent property, setting a class on it via labelClass and then setting the icon to be transparent (https://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/transparent.png)
This way the actual icon is invisible but you can create rich HTML / CSS markers through the label. And this doesnt break functionality with the clusterer
We're trying to serve simple markup - a thumbnail, image, and some text - through DFP. This markup needs to be fluid - it's one member of a responsive grid on our website.
Assuming we can't avoid the iframe, is there a way we can get the iframe to be set at 100% width? That would probably do it.
The issues we're having is that we're forced to define an ad unit size, and that seems to dictate the dimensions of the iframe.
You can't have the control over the iframe, the best solution would be to extract the content of the iframe and append it to the parent using javascript. This way you will be able to use your websites responsive grid and class.
Sorry Mathieu but you are wrong. DFP uses friendly iFrames and you can change the width or height if you use your own creative template. We have many custom templates defined in DFP for our masthead variations that can expand, collapse, destroy ad unit's iframe.
I need to create a new application widget using bootstrap 3 and other web technologies like angular etc. I know that the new version of bootstrap is responsive. My understanding after reading the documentation is that the widget that I will create will automatically be responsive. I don't need to do anything special to make it responsive. However If I want to make it non-responsive then I need to make necessary changes to disable this functionality of bootstrap 3.
Can you please let me know that whether my understanding of Bootstrap in this regard is correct or not?
I think this will help you to understand more about Bootstrap.
You mentioned "widget that I will create will automatically be responsive". But if you not apply Bootstrap CSS rules in your widget, it will not be responsive even it in inside of Bootstrap template.
We have to apply Bootstrap CSS rules in our design to take effect and be responsive. If you do not want a particular element to be responsive, apply your own CSS rules or media queries on breaking points that you want...

Hope this will help you. Cheers! (='.'=)
This is all you need to do:
Steps to disable page responsiveness
Omit the viewport mentioned in the CSS docs
Override the width on the .container for each grid tier with a single width, for example width: 970px !important; Be sure that this comes after the default Bootstrap CSS. You can optionally avoid the !important with media queries or some selector-fu.
If using navbars, remove all navbar collapsing and expanding behavior.
For grid layouts, use .col-xs-* classes in addition to, or in place of, the medium/large ones. Don't worry, the extra-small device grid scales to all resolutions.
You'll still need Respond.js for IE8 (since our media queries are still there and need to be processed). This disables the "mobile site" aspects of Bootstrap.
Bootstrap template with responsiveness disabled
We've applied these steps to an example. Read its source code to see the specific changes implemented.
