Hi folks,

I spent a bit of time this morning futzing around with Doc Exchange at a clients request to increase the vertical size of the control.

After much experimentation I discovered that adjusting the height of the Splitter in /DesktopModules/Bring2Mind/DMX/Viewcollections.ascx as well as the height of the .vw-con-l and .vw-con-r in the
/DesktopModules/Bring2Mind/DMX/module.css file seems to do the trick.

Not sure if this hack will break anything. I'll keep you posted.

Seems to be working okay but that is a total hack and your milage may vary.

It would be really cool if setting the vertical height of the module as well as the default split between the folder listing and the info sections was added as a config option for a future release.

Cheers,


Dave

Hi Dave,

Thanks. Managing width and height in the Ajax UI has proved pretty challenging. There are numerous bits of JS (js/viewcollection.js) to keep things lined up. And still I occasionally see a few extra pixels here or there (keep in mind there are different browsers to contend with). This proved to be the single biggest challenge in the Ajax UI.

Hi Peter, is there any trick or script to make the UI width scale dynamically? We have a client that would like to use DMX but they said want the view to scale its width automatically when resizing the browser window, so to have it at 100% width at all times. To me this sounds like there would be extensive JS necessary to achieve this since the width seems to be set when the page loads. However you scale a browser after the page has loaded will not affect the UI in any way.

Thanks for help.

Hi Patrice,

You're welcome to try to tweak this yourself with the ascx and the JS. I don't have any tips as I've never been able to do this. If you have the partial source you can also tweak the codebehind. But the resizing bits for this are all in JS and the ascx.
