so I am currently trying to make a dropdown with options that go
FullName | IDNumber
I was wondering if there is a way to add dynamic padding so that the "|" is lined up on every option.
Dropdown Options Example
Here is what I would want it to look like in a way.
Dropdown Design Goal
Well if the names and IDs doesn't come with any interaction with DB try using extra space ( ) after the names.
Display it in 1x2 box instead of 1x1.

Is it possible to show target value reference line for each bar in a bar chart.
A way around that i am doing now is using combination chart. Refer screenshot.
The problem here is that now i can not define a color by property to color bars using rules.
I don't believe you can do it automatically without scripting but here is an example of how to do it by hand.
Right click on your bar chart and go to the Lines & Curves section:
Here you can see I've added 4 lines based on percentage of the data.
You can do this or add lines of set values using the Add button in the top right and selecting Horizontal Line.
Notice I've added the line name as the description of the percentage it is, hovering over will show an actual value so it may better to do this if it isn't clear what the value represents.
This is what it produces:
To make it better match your question I've added 2 more employees and coloured by employee instead, I've also set fixed targets for each person rather than percentages and renamed them to make sure it is clear which line applies to which person in case the colour isn't enough.
Using the Settings -> Appearance section back in the first picture change the colour of the lines to match the fields they represent.
Like I said at the start you should be able to create a script to do this for you but that is another question.
The Problem in Hand:
I want to make a form designer where user can drag and drop fields of different type and design the layout too, some what similar to wufoo form builder but here the layout is limited to single column whereas I want to make something where user can make the layout as they want.
I understand how to do in single column view, but could not understand how to achieve multiple column layout eg: row 1 there could be 3 elements, row 2 one element stretched to full length, row 3 there could be just 2 elements etc.
What I tried:
I have tried with jquery UI sortable to make a single column layout with using div where new elements can be dragged and repositioned.
Any suggestion on how to proceed further will be helpful
I have tried searching StackOverFlow and google but could not find any link on a similar topic. If anyone could point me to the same, it will be also helpful.
When you reorder elements on wufoo form builder, you can only drag'n'drop up or down. Remove that restriction and as soon as one element is dragged across a certain threshold, it "belongs" to the next column. If the "old" column was the first or last one and the line that the element was moved over was to the "outside" of the form, add a new column there, until the maximal number of columns is reached.
If the used drags the last element of a column into another column, remove the now empty column on element-drop.
You could also remove the dynamic adding/removing of columns and juist have a button ("remove column" & "add column") to do it by code.
An example for the dropping in another column can be found here: http://jqueryui.com/sortable/#connect-lists
Hope this helped!
Edit:
http://jqueryui.com/sortable/#portlets and http://jqueryui.com/sortable/#empty-lists also have elements that you could look into. Good luck! Sounds like a nice project. Can we see any progress or beta?
I am trying to create a Table that shall contain some columns with basic facts on the left and on the right side there shall be some columns that can be tabbed. Something like this:
So the Question is, how to do this?
I could personaly think of two solutions, but I actually don't like both:
Write a own Table for Tab1,Tab2 ... That contains the basic data and the Tabbed Data
Write a Table for the basic Data and one for each Tab. Here I think you would have a lot of Design problem "glueing" both tables together, so they look like one table.
So actually I don't like both solutions. Maybe there is a better solution to this?
Perhaps you could give the columns that belong to each tab their own unique class, e.g. .tab1-columns, .tab2-columns, etc. Then, you could show or hide the column depending on the active tab. The tabs, however, would exist outside of the table. Alternatively, you could pt the tabs into a pseudo- header row above the actual table header row, with the first header cell spanning those cells that shouldn't be "tabbed". However, I believe leaving the tabs outside of the table would be a bit more semantic in nature.
HTH.
Render all columns but hide them (display: none;) except the column by default.
Then add an click event on the tabs to switch the visible columns. be sure to use just the nav-tabs and not the js component.. it will be easier I think
Is it possible to make input looks like chosen (http://harvesthq.github.com/chosen/) selects?
I don't need autocomplete, I need round borders, blue border on active, same height, same background.
PS: standart inputs and chosen selects look too diffent.
Have a look at twitter bootstrap
Form elements examples here. They look more or less like chosen inputs.
I am looking for a way where multi select list box should display as normal single select combobox but on click it should work as list box allowing multi selct like show below as in spreadsheet. I am looking for solution in CSS HTML and javascript rather than in Jquery.
You can't make an element behave like that, but you can make something that looks like a dropdown list, and when the user clicks on it, display a popup/popout with a select that allows multiselect (has the size property set).
you can do this by jQuery MultiSelect and here is the demo
