This seems dissimilar to the accordion functionality provided by bootstrap.
To give an example, let's take the "how to format" info starting me in the face right now. I'd want it so that it only displays up to X pixels deep, and then stops until expanded. So it might look like:
and then, once expanded,
I happen to be using bootstrap. Is there a bootstrap native or other HTML solution to create this kind of experience?
Assume that the thing that I only want to show of is a single element, such as an image, rather than a series of text. This means a solution like min-height:50px and overflow:hidden won't work, as it will simply hide the entire image rather than part of it.
We can use jQuery .height() to accomplish knowing the rendered height of an element then making conditional modifications.
Documentation and examples for jQuery .height().
A combination of height and overflow in combination with the toggling of a class should work here.

The click of the arrow is bound to the following function:
function expandCollapse() {
$("#container").toggleClass("expanded");
$(".glyphicon").toggleClass("glyphicon-arrow-down"); // Flip Arrow

The Goal
I want to have a v-data-table that is editable and looks "nice".
The problem
Adding a v-text-field to make it editable also increases the row-height to a very eye unpleasing level
Original view:
With v-text-field inputs
The quesion
How can I decrease the row height to resemble the one without v-text-fields.
As a Bonus
Because I am quite new to this whole Front-End-Development-Kind-Of-Thing, how would I go about it identifying what is causing this "height issue"?
PS: I've tried to add a JSFiddle but I cant even seem to be unable to figure out how to display the v-data-table correctly...
The basic draft can be found here
Is it necessary for your table to be editable within the columns? How do you decide when to pass data back via request to your Backend? After the user left a field?
If it is not necessary to have the edit option within the table, I would just use the action buttons you already have in your table to trigger a modal in which you can edit the fields. This also allows you to have proper form control before a user can submit a request. There is also a Vuetify Codepen with an example how to do this Codepen
If it is necessary you should implement the v-data-table as v-data-iterator which is essentially the same functionality-wise, but allows for complete control over the look. https://vuetifyjs.com/en/components/data-iterators/
As to how to identify the problem with the v-text-field height you have to use your browser dev tools. You would then realise that the input has default paddings and margins but also a whole lot under the hood. It e.g. allocates space for error messages to pop up and for a label to go above the field.
And how to fix your JSfiddle you can read in the getting started section of the vuetify documentation under CDN https://vuetifyjs.com/en/getting-started/installation/#usage-with-cdn.
you can use the "dense" property for Lower height of v-data-table inputs
https://vuetifyjs.com/en/components/data-tables/#dense
Before I start--I know we can do this with JS positioning. I'm trying to see if we can avoid the JS positioning.
You can see a close approximation here-- I've forced/dummied the overlay positioning using a top:nnn value for now (it's off a bit in the jsfiddle).
What I want to do is set the top of that overlay to start in line with the bottom of the selected table row. Again-- we dummied it for now using top with a fixed value, but there should be a CSS way to set it?
I did play around with tr.isSelected:after {...} type stuff, that didn't work as expected.
Try using tr.isSelected>td:first-child, and among the properties include position:absolute.
I'm not sure what the point is, though... Class toggling can only be done with JavaScript, so if you're already using JS then where's the harm in using it to calculate the position?
I have to implement this grid of divs. It won't change often, but it may at some point (meaning a box may be removed, and another resized). Each black box will eventually contain an image or a word, but that's not important.
How do I pull this off? Is there a more elegant way than by absolutely positioning every single box and manually entering every X/Y/width/height?
A grid based approach would be my recommendation.
Something like: http://960.gs/

I'm replacing a winforms screen with an html interface, which needs to run in IE7/8/9 & Firefox.
Currently on one of our screens we have a funky input control that looks like this:
The user can enter a value in one of three ways:
the user can just type into the box
the user can select an item from the dropdown
the user can tick the ‘Unopened’ checkbox, which effectively chooses a known item we call ‘Unopened’
There’s also a search button ‘…’ but that’s another control which is easy to implement.
I want to rebuild this using html and am wondering how to replace the Unopened function, as (a) and (b) are easy enough. I’m thinking I’ll just put a separate Unopened checkbox beneath the INPUT box instead of inside it, because that would be simpler. But if there's a way to keep it looking like it does now I’d probably prefer that. Is that possible?
UPDATE:
Secondary question: if I do put the checkbox inside the INPUT box using CSS am I just bringing upon myself a lot of pain with quirky little usability or layout problems or is this something that's not too unusual or hard to do?
You can put it in a separate div and then position it with CSS to look like it's inside of the input field:
#checkbox {
position: relative;
top: -10px;
}
or whatever values you need...
Regarding your second question: Nope. It's not actually "inside" the box, it just appears that way. All the functionality will still be there. =)
http://jsfiddle.net/BdBTy/ is a quick example of how this works.
place the check right below the textbox in html
in css for the checkbox put
margin-top:-25px;
(or whatever exact number you need)
I've read docs about positioning controls on the map(TOP, TOP_LEFT, etc), but Is there any way to make custom position? For example: left: 20px; top: 200px;
I just want to have in top_left corner my logo and zoom control right under logo.
And how to remove pan control in navigation controls? I want to have only zoom control in default style(not minimized).
Thank you.
Although the question is rather old, with almost 3k views it still seems to draw interest - So, here is my solution:
Wrap the controls!
First we have to find the container-element, where Google puts the control. This depends on which controls we want to use on the map. Google doesn't use unique ids for those containers. But all the controls have the class "gmnoprint" in common. So just counting the elements with "gmnoprint" does the job. Say we only want to use the "ZoomControlStyle.SMALL"-control. It's always the last element with "gmnoprint".
Now, we can simply style the element - Right? No. As soon as you zoom or resize the map, Google resets the styling of the controls. Bad luck, but: We can wrap a container around the controls and style this container!
Using jQuery, this is a really simple task:
$('div.gmnoprint').last().parent().wrap('<div id="newPos" />');
We only have to make sure, the control is fully loaded by the time we try to wrap it. It's not totally bulletproof I guess, but using the MapsEventListener "tilesloaded" does a pretty good job:
google.maps.event.addDomListener(map, 'tilesloaded', function(){
// We only want to wrap once!
if($('#newPos').length==0){
$('div.gmnoprint').last().parent().wrap('<div id="newPos" />');
}
});

Of course if you don't like the initial flicker and want a more reliable version you can do all kinds of improvements like fadeIn etc: http://jsfiddle.net/vVLWg/ (not working, see Update Feb 2016)
So, I hope some of you will find this useful - Have fun!
Update: With this method you can position any other control (e.g. the controls of the Drawing Library) as well. You just have to make sure to select the right container! This is a modified example: http://jsfiddle.net/jP65p/1/ (somehow still working)
Update: As of Feb 2016 Google seems to have changed the positioning of the map controls. This does not break my solution. It just needs some adjustment. So here are the updated fiddles:
Simple: http://jsfiddle.net/hbnrqqoz/
Fancy: http://jsfiddle.net/2Luk68w5/
It is extremely simple, just add this to your css file!
div.gmnoprint { padding-top: 50px; }
It will move the control 50px down with no hacks or anything!
You can create a custom control for your logo, and add it to the map to position it. You can't set the location of the control directly beyond the constants, but you can offset the location using padding on your control div.
