Only one Fixed Target works.
But I would like to add multiple targets.
Please may I know is it feasible? and how to do?

I have these items already successfully placed vertically with position: absolute and a calculated top value–
my library of choice for all things time related (dayjs) also comes with functionality to check if one item overlaps with another one, nice.
Each item has a startedAt and endedAt property holding ISO datetime strings, i.e. 2022-03-31T17:34Z – using dayjs I can convert them to anything the overlap detection needs.
In the screenshot you can see some examples of overlaps we would like to see in the final result. After some research the TUI calendar solves the issue pretty much just like we want it.
For a lot of reasons we can't use tui-calendar as a whole and extracting the logic to place the items (basically get width and left for each overlapping item) is way beyond my skills (although I think I've found the functions that are responsible for this)
So far I've failed miserably to solve this myself; both using recursion and loops :X
Questions:
– Is there an easier way?
– Is there a dedicated library to solve this?
– Any ideas how to kickstart a solution myself?
Kinda desperate here :D
Thanks!
I am writing a custom application in C using GTK+2.0 and Cairo. Just for learning purposes (and if successful, then for deployment), I wish to recreate something similar to a overlay toolbar/widget (I am sorry if the terminology is not correct) that appears when a mouse moves over a given area on the window, and disappears when the mouse moves away. The toolbar, as I imagine, should appear on top of the existing widgets without displacing them or altering the widget packing in any way. Is it possible to accomplish? If yes, can you please point me to relevant tutorials/examples and/or outline a way to do the same?
Thanks in advance.
Not sure this is easily doable in GTK2. However, I learned recently that there's the GtkLayout widget which allows pixel exact rendering of widgets, so you can even display some widgets over others. Or you may implement your own container widget.
Please note that since GTK3, there's GtkOverlay which seem to do what you want.
You may also give a look to Clutter, which might allow this. Furthermore, there are projects of merging GTK and Clutter for GTK 4.
The little known GtkHandleBox is capable of doing what you want. I must warn you it is deprecated in GTK+3 because is going against the usual UI direction. Also, the correct positioning will be subject to the windows manager quirks, so I'd expect some issue in this regard.
I have a Flash Datagrid component being populated by data from Robotlegs services. However as the datagrid needs to show more and more rows of info I need to implement a way of loading the data as it is needed. Ideally this will be as the user scrolls down the list, I have seen this in Flex examples but I could do with a pure AS3 solution. Does anyone have any guidance or ideas how to approach this?
Here is the Flex example: http://www.jamesward.com/2010/10/11/data-paging-in-flex-4/
Any guidance would be appreciated.
I think you'll need to extend the Flash DG to use something like an AsyncListView and look at the AsyncListView to see how it does it, then write it to generate the correct events when an item isn't found, but remove any dependencies to Flex. You'll also need to do something that acts like the Responder class to support having different overlapping calls to the same service.
I have got a requirement where the outlook is as shown in the attached image
I have accomplished the task by making use of tables in HTML and styling using CSS.
The criteria is that the images in a row is almost the same (i.e the two images) and the content changes for every row. So the content is different on every row but the images remain the same for every row. Just for info there will be multiple number of rows. What would be the best practice to implement such as design other than using tables, where it should also be flexible to change the content. Or using tables is the best option.
Suggestions from the professionals are appreciated.
I don't want to write it for you but I've made a quick mock up for you to have a look at - http://jsfiddle.net/spacebeers/TAJdw/
You don't want to use tables for anything other than tabular date anymore. You're much better off spending your time researching CSS.
Have a look at my example. It's what one instance of a content container could look like. What you want to do from there is look at getting two of them in a row. Build the CSS for the .container class, then copy another instance of .contentContainer in and see what results you get.
I'm happy to provide help if you want but it's always good to have a crack at it yourself. You'll get better answers on here and avoid unnecessary downvoting of your question.
It is generally advisable to use pure css for things like this, rather than tables. Tables cause your page to render slower, as the content needs to be loaded before the rendering engine can correctly draw them.
Try something like this
I would consider using a div with a background image style to it so that for each row with the same image all you will need to do is put that specific div class in. Then you can just position the outer div's to get it to look correctly, although tables are not the most efficient way of build web pages they still work.
Like mez said - you need to think about repeating content - and learning about floats. I'd really advise working through this site
http://css.maxdesign.com.au/floatutorial/
it will teach you all the basics of designing with divs.
In the meantime - here's roughly what your're after. I've added background colours and made up all the heights and widths, as they weren't specifie, but it should get you started.
If you look at the html, I've annotated what is just a repeat of earlier content.
http://jsfiddle.net/zandergrin/k8EsP/3/
I'm building a page full of hyperlinks which are gotten from querying a content management system, so the number of links is variable.
The requirements need me to display all the links over 3 columns and make it look presentable.
So at the moment I've got myself a Map<Category, Hyperlink> and when I display it at the moment its in one big list on the page.
Is there some way I can dynamically get my columns to flow into each other so that each column contains a similar number of hyperlinks?
Thank you.
The easiest way I can think of to do this is to put the links in to an unordered list, then set the style for each list item so that they are 33% of the available width and displayed inline.

The second one is the best one, in my opinion. I used it before when I had the same problem. It gives all the code, really nice illustrations and you can just copy the code free of charge. I think this is exactly what you are looking for.
