So I am following this tutorial to extend the autodesk forge viewer. I have compelted all of the steps and no button is showing, I assume this is due to an error with the loading.
https://forge.autodesk.com/blog/extension-skeleton-toolbar-docking-panel
I have also tried this tutorial, with the same issue:
http://learnforge.autodesk.io/#/viewer/extensions/selection?id=conclusion
My issue is I am not getting an error, the extension just isn't showing... does anyone know why?
I'm assuming theres an error in either the viewer or the index.
Below is my code: (index & forge viewer)

Yes, you are missing the CSS for the Buttons and also the reference to the JS files pertaining to the extensions in your HTML file.
<script src="your_folder/MyExtensionFileName.js"></script>
http://learnforge.autodesk.io/#/viewer/extensions/selection?id=toolbar-css
Check this for the CSS of your extension buttons.
I have a very large google sheet document that I am creating for work. I have written a short script to create a sidebar from a separate HTML file. The script is as follows:
function onOpen() {
SpreadsheetApp.getUi()
.createMenu('MaintainRegistry')
.addItem('GenerateContractTemplate', 'generateContractTemplate')
.addToUi();
SpreadsheetApp.getUi()
.createMenu('Sidebar').addItem('Open', 'openSidebar').addToUi();
SpreadsheetApp.getUi()
.createMenu('Sidebar').addItem('Open', 'openSidebar').addToUi();
}
The function is :
function openSidebar() {
var html = HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile('index');
SpreadsheetApp.getUi().showSidebar(html);
}
And the simple HTML is:
<!DOCTYPE html>

alpha.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-

margin: 0 auto;
}
#header {

padding: 5px;

<body>
<div id="header">
<h1> Index </h1>
</div>
<div class="text-center">
<p>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Hotel name</button>
</p>
<p>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Periods</button>
</p>
<p>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Contract template</button>
</p>
<p>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Non renewals</button>
</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Essentially this is just a simple sidebar and I want the buttons to take the user to a specific place in the spreadsheet. There are over 60 columns so if the user clicks on 'hotel name' I want it to lead them to for example, column AE etc...
How can this be done? I have no idea what to reference in the link and obviously don't want this to open a new page either - just skip straight to the right column...
Add these to your gs file. Change the sheet name and row and column of each yo where you want to position to.
function hotel(){
var ss=SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet()
var s=ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1")
var row=s.getActiveCell().getRow()
var column=12
s.getRange(row, column).activate()
}
function periods(){
var ss=SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet()
var s=ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1")
var row=s.getActiveCell().getRow()
var column=13
s.getRange(row, column).activate()
}
function contracttemplate(){
var ss=SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet()
var s=ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1")
var row=s.getActiveCell().getRow()
var column=14
s.getRange(row, column).activate()
}
function nonrenewals(){
var ss=SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet()
var s=ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1")
var row=s.getActiveCell().getRow()
var column=15
s.getRange(row, column).activate()
}
In the HTML file, I added a reference to jquery. I changed the buttons to have unique ids and added script yo handle the button clicks and call the new functions.

On a form with required-validation and ng-messages I use ng-show to hide the directive on startup and only show error messages after the input got ng-dirty.
To still keep the element filling it's space in the layout I have following css rule to overwrite the default ng-hide behaviour:
ng-messages.ng-hide:not(.ng-hide-animate), [ng-messages].ng-hide:not(.ng-hide-animate)
{
display: block !important;
visibility: hidden;
}
When I now enter text in the input field the error message is shortly visible before it is then hidden again (due to the required field being filled). It somehow feels like ng-dirty is resolved before the form validation is done, resulting in this behaviour.
See this Fiddle
or check out the
Code:
var $scope;
var app = angular.module('myapp', ['ngMessages', 'ngAnimate']);
app.controller('UserCtrl', ['$scope', UserCtrl]);
function UserCtrl($scope) {
$scope.showField = true;
$scope.reset = function() {
var master = { name: '' };
$scope.temp = angular.copy(master);
$scope.user_form.$setPristine();
}
}
ng-messages.ng-hide:not(.ng-hide-animate), [ng-messages].ng-hide:not(.ng-hide-animate)
{
display: block !important;
visibility: hidden;
}
ng-messages, [ng-messages]
{
display: block;

I want to change default text on button that is "Choose File" when we use input="file".
How can I do this? Also as you can see in image button is on left side of text. How can I put it on right side of text?
Use the for attribute of label for input.
<div>
<label for="files" class="btn">Select Image</label>
<input id="files" style="visibility:hidden;" type="file">
</div>
Below is the code to fetch name of the uploaded file
$("#files").change(function() {
filename = this.files[0].name;
console.log(filename);
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div>
<label for="files" class="btn">Select Image</label>
<input id="files" style="visibility:hidden;" type="file">
</div>
I think this is what you want:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
<title>JS Bin</title>
</head>
<body>
<button style="display:block;width:120px; height:30px;" onclick="document.getElementById('getFile').click()">Your text here</button>
<input type='file' id="getFile" style="display:none">
</body>
</html>
Each browser has it's own rendition of the control and as such you can't change either the text or the orientation of the control.
There are some "kind of" hacks you may want to try if you want an html/css solution rather than a Flash or silverlightsolution.
http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/inputfile.html
http://www.shauninman.com/archive/2007/09/10/styling_file_inputs_with_css_and_the_dom
Personally, because most users stick to their browser of choice, and therefore are probably used to seeing the control in the default rendition, they'd probably get confused if they saw something different (depending on the types of users you're dealing with).
This might help someone in the future, you can style the label for the input as you like and put anything you want inside it and hide the input with display none.
It works perfectly on cordova with iOS
<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/ratchet/2.0.2/css/ratchet.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<label for="imageUpload" class="btn btn-primary btn-block btn-outlined">Seleccionar imagenes</label>
<input type="file" id="imageUpload" accept="image/*" style="display: none">
To achieve this, the default input button must be hidden using display:none CSS property and a new button element is added to replace it, so we can customize as we wish.
With Bootstrap
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.4.1/css/bootstrap.min.css">
Optional text here
<label for="img" class="btn btn-info">Try me</label>
<input type="file" id="img" style="display:none">
With jQuery
In this case the onclick attribute added to the button element is indicating to JavaScript to click on the hidden default input button whenever the visible button is clicked.
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
Optional text here
<button style="cursor:pointer" onclick="$('#input').click()">Click me</button>
<input type="file" id="input" style="display:none">
Plain JavaScript with event listener
document.getElementById('btn').addEventListener('click', () => {
document.getElementById('input').click();
})
Optional text here
<button style="cursor:pointer" id="btn">Click me</button>
<input type="file" id="input" style="display:none">
It is not possible. Otherwise you may need to use Silverlight or Flash upload control.
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#choose-file').change(function () {
var i = $(this).prev('label').clone();
var file = $('#choose-file')[0].files[0].name;
$(this).prev('label').text(file);
});
});
.custom-file-upload{
background: #f7f7f7;
padding: 8px;
border: 1px solid #e3e3e3;
border-radius: 5px;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
display: inline-block;
padding: 6px 12px;
cursor: pointer;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
can you try this
<label for="choose-file" class="custom-file-upload" id="choose-file-label">
Upload Document
</label>
<input name="uploadDocument" type="file" id="choose-file"
accept=".jpg,.jpeg,.pdf,doc,docx,application/msword,.png" style="display: none;" />
The trick is to trigger a click event on click of the file input and manage the visibility of the default input file via CSS. Here's how you can do it:
jQuery:
$(function() {
$("#labelfile").click(function() {
$("#imageupl").trigger('click');
});
})
css
.file {
position: absolute;
clip: rect(0px, 0px, 0px, 0px);
display: block;
}
.labelfile {
color: #333;
background-color: #fff;
display: inline-block;
margin-bottom: 0;
font-weight: 400;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;
cursor: pointer;
background-image: none;
white-space: nowrap;
padding: 6px 8px;
font-size: 14px;
line-height: 1.42857143;
-webkit-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
}
HTML code:
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div>
<input name="imageupl" type="file" id="imageupl" class="file" />
<label class="labelfile" id="labelfile"><i class="icon-download-alt"></i> Browse File</label>
</div>
I made a script and published it at GitHub: get selectFile.js
Easy to use, feel free to clone.
HTML
<input type=file hidden id=choose name=choose>
<input type=button onClick=getFile.simulate() value=getFile>
<label id=selected>Nothing selected</label>
JS
var getFile = new selectFile;
getFile.targets('choose','selected');
DEMO
jsfiddle.net/Thielicious/4oxmsy49/
Update 2017:
I have done research on how this could be achieved. And the best explanation/tutorial is here:
https://tympanus.net/codrops/2015/09/15/styling-customizing-file-inputs-smart-way/
I'll write summary here just in case it becomes unavailable. So you should have HTML:
<input type="file" name="file" id="file" class="inputfile" />
<label for="file">Choose a file</label>
Then hide the input with CSS:
.inputfile {
width: 0.1px;
height: 0.1px;
opacity: 0;
overflow: hidden;
position: absolute;
z-index: -1;}
Then style the label:
.inputfile + label {
font-size: 1.25em;
font-weight: 700;
color: white;
background-color: black;
display: inline-block;
}
Then optionally you can add JS to display the name of the file:
var inputs = document.querySelectorAll( '.inputfile' );
Array.prototype.forEach.call( inputs, function( input )
{
var label = input.nextElementSibling,
labelVal = label.innerHTML;
input.addEventListener( 'change', function( e )
{
var fileName = '';
if( this.files && this.files.length > 1 )
fileName = ( this.getAttribute( 'data-multiple-caption' ) || '' ).replace( '{count}', this.files.length );
else
fileName = e.target.value.split( '\\' ).pop();
if( fileName )
label.querySelector( 'span' ).innerHTML = fileName;
else
label.innerHTML = labelVal;
});
});
But really just read the tutorial and download the demo, it's really good.
This should work:
input.*className*::-webkit-file-upload-button {
*style content..*
}
Here is how its done with bootstrap, only u should put the original input somewhere...idk
in head and delete the < br > if you have it, because its only hidden and its taking space anyway :)

Using Bootstrap you can do this thing like the below code.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<style>
.btn-file {
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
}
.btn-file input[type=file] {

right: 0;
min-width: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
font-size: 100px;
text-align: right;
filter: alpha(opacity=0);
opacity: 0;

<input type='file' id="getFile" style="display:none">

I'd use a button to trigger the input:
<button onclick="document.getElementById('fileUpload').click()">Open from File...</button>
<input type="file" id="fileUpload" name="files" style="display:none" />
Quick and clean.
You can use this approach, it works even if a lot of files inputs.
const fileBlocks = document.querySelectorAll('.file-block')
const buttons = document.querySelectorAll('.btn-select-file')
;[...buttons].forEach(function (btn) {
btn.onclick = function () {
btn.parentElement.querySelector('input[type="file"]').click()
}
})
;[...fileBlocks].forEach(function (block) {
block.querySelector('input[type="file"]').onchange = function () {
const filename = this.files[0].name
block.querySelector('.btn-select-file').textContent = 'File selected: ' + filename
}
})
.btn-select-file {
border-radius: 20px;
}
input[type="file"] {
display: none;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="file-block">
<button class="btn-select-file">Select Image 1</button>
<input type="file">
</div>
<br>
<div class="file-block">
<button class="btn-select-file">Select Image 2</button>
<input type="file">
</div>
My solution...
HTML :
<input type="file" id="uploadImages" style="display:none;" multiple>
<input type="button" id="callUploadImages" value="Select">
<input type="button" id="uploadImagesInfo" value="0 file(s)." disabled>
<input type="button" id="uploadProductImages" value="Upload">
Jquery:
$('#callUploadImages').click(function(){
$('#uploadImages').click();
});
$('#uploadImages').change(function(){
var uploadImages = $(this);
$('#uploadImagesInfo').val(uploadImages[0].files.length+" file(s).");
});
This is just evil :D
Ok so very simple pure css way of creating your custom input file.
Use labels, but as you know from previous answers, label doesn't invoke onclick
function in firefox, may be a bug but doesn't matter with the following.
<label for="file" class="custom-file-input"><input type="file" name="file" class="custom-file-input"></input></label>
What you do is style the label to look how you want it to
.custom-file-input {
color: transparent;/* This is to take away the browser text for file uploading*/
/* Carry on with the style you want */
background: url(../img/doc-o.png);
background-size: 100%;
position: absolute;
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
cursor: pointer;
top: 10%;
right: 15%;
}
now simply hide the actual input button, but you cant set it to to visability: hidden
So make in invisible by setting opacity: 0;
input.custom-file-input {
opacity: 0;
position: absolute;/*set position to be exactly over your input*/
left: 0;
top: 0;
}
now as you might have noticed i have the same class on my label as i do my input field, that is because i want the to both have the same styling, thus where ever you click on the label, you are actually clicking on the invisible input field.
I build a script that can be easier to do that.
For example:
<input data-com="fileBtn" placeholder="Select Image">
basically, my script is very similar to this link
Code
Pure javascript, no dependencies needed
<!-- bootstrap.min.css not necessary -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap/5.1.0/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<input data-com="fileBtn" placeholder="Select Image"> <!-- com: components -->
<input data-com="fileBtn" placeholder="Select File">
<div class="mt-2">
<input id="build-by-myself" placeholder="Select Video" accept="video/mp4, video/webm">
<div>
<script>
// 👇 Test
(()=>{
window.onload = () =>{
// FileButton.className ="btn btn-danger"
FileButton.BuildAll() // auto build all data-com="fileBtn"
// or you can specify the target that you wanted.
new FileButton(document.getElementById("build-by-myself"), "btn btn-danger")
}
})()
// 👇 script begin
class FileButton {
static className = "btn btn-primary"
static BuildAll() {
document.querySelectorAll(`input[data-com="fileBtn"]`).forEach(input=>{
new FileButton(input, FileButton.className)
})
}
/**
* #param {HTMLInputElement} input
* #param {string} btnClsName
* */
constructor(input, btnClsName) {
input.style.display = "none" // [display is better than visibility](https://stackoverflow.com/a/48495293/9935654)
input.type = "file"
const frag = document.createRange().createContextualFragment(`<button class="${btnClsName}">${input.placeholder}</button>`)
const button = frag.querySelector(`button`)
input.parentNode.insertBefore(frag, input)
button.onclick = ()=>{
input.click()
}
input.addEventListener(`change`, (e)=>{
// create a textNode to show the file name.
const file = input.files[0]
if (file === undefined) {
return
}
const textNode = document.createTextNode(file.name)
if (button.textNode) { // create a new attribute to record previous data.
button.textNode.remove()
}
button.textNode = textNode
button.parentNode.insertBefore(textNode, input)
})
}
}
</script>

Below is an example of a stylized upload button that will read an image, compress it, and download the resulting image. It works by hiding the actual input element, and then through some trickery we make it so that when you click on our fake file uploader it uses the actual input element to pop up the window for choosing a file. By using this method we get 100% control over how the file uploader looks since we are using our own element instead of styling the file upload menu. It also makes it easy to add drag and drop functionality in the future if we ever want to do that.
And then I actually created a series of blog posts about this file upload button.

Stack Overflow limitations seem to prevent the code snippet from actually compressing and downloading the file. The exact same code here shows that the full upload/compress/download process does actually work as intended.
With answers from this question, I fixed what many in coments said doesn¨t work for them which is that it's not showing how many files user chose.
<label for="uploadedFiles" class="btn btn-sm btn-outline-primary">Choose files</label>
<input type="file" name="postedFiles" id="uploadedFiles" multiple="multiple" hidden onchange="javascript:updateList()" />
<input class="btn btn-primary mt-2 btn-action" type="submit" value="Send" formmethod="post" formaction="#Url.Action("Create")" /><br />
<span id="selected-count">Selected files: 0</span>
<script>
updateList = function () {
var input = document.getElementById('uploadedFiles');//list of files user uploaded
var output = document.getElementById('selected-count');//element displaying count
output.innerHTML = 'Selected files: ' + input.files.length;
}
</script>
You can easily improve it by showing names of files instead or whatever you wish to do but all I wanted was to inform user that they have already picked files.
You can use a simple button and hide input file
using jquery and bootstrap :
HTML code
<button class="btn btn-white" id="btn-file" type="button"><i class="fa fa-file-pdf"></i> Anexar Documento</button>
<input name="shutdown" id="input-file" type="file" class="form-control hidden" accept="application/pdf, image/png, image/jpeg">
CSS :
.hidden{display:none}
JS :
$("#btn-file").click(function () {
$("#input-file").trigger('click');
});
$("#input-file").change(function () {
var file = $(this)[0].files[0].name;
$("#btn-file").html('<i class="fa fa-file-pdf"></i> ' + file);
});
