Can I adjust the width of the navigation pane?

Hello, I've got a WebHelp project. It will generally be used on touchscreens. This forum gave me great advice on making the fonts bigger for TOC and Indiex items by going to the WebHelp Skin Editor.
Well, I was wondering if I could actually make the width of the navigation pane wider. In the Skin Editor, you can drag the pane (like you can in compiled help, but that doesn't seem to hold upon compilation. Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi there

Change the width of left navigation pane

I am wondering how can I change the width of left navigation pane, as the group name is so long that user can't read it now, is there any way to increase the width of the pane so it will dispaly the full group name?

Out of the box there is no way to change the size of the left hand pane. However if you are customizing Workspace you should be able to change the width of that pane. Also if the name of the group is too long to display in the pane you can hover over the group (or category or process name) and the tooltip should display the full name of the group.
Hope that helps.

I can no longer adjust the width of the Bookmarks Sidebar, how do I fix this issue?

In the past I could hover my mouse arrow over the slider vertical bar to the right of the sidebar and get a 2 headed arrow that I could use to adjust the width of the Bookmarks Sidebar but that stopped working. I need to fix this issue. What do I need to do?

Maybe something you installed to Firefox messed up that feature.
Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

A SharePoint theme to limit the width of the page to 960px (without limiting width of top ribbon and top navigation)?

I can reduce the width by some CSS inside the page CEWP or Master Page that's fine.
BUT
I need a SharePoint theme - which simply reduces the width of the page content to 960px. (Without affecting the top ribbon and top navigation which should stay as they are).
Any clue how to do that please? Any sample theme?
Thanks.

Not sure what you are asking here exactly. By theme, do you mean a design package (masterpage + css)?

How can i fix the tab overlapping when i change the width of the url bar with #urlbar-container [focused]?

I want to create for myself the most minimalistic browser experience as possible and i've put the most used features in the title bar. For purposes of space i had to fix the width of the url bar to a minimum and my intention is to increase it to a fixed width only when #urlbar-container [focused]. The problem is that #urlbar-container will overlap the existing tabs instead of shrinking their space, making it look really bad. It looks wonderful with #urlbar-container:hover, but i can't use that since whenever i want to refresh the wesbite using the button the width of the container will increase moving the button from the place i had the mouse in the first place to click it.
Fixed width of the url bar when #urlbar-container is not focused:

Fixed width of the url bar when #urlbar-container [focused]:

This is the css i have for the url bar at the moment:
<pre><nowiki>#urlbar-container {max-width:225px!important;}
#urlbar-container {min-width:225px!important;}
#urlbar-container {transition:0.7s!important;}
#urlbar-container [focused] {max-width:500px!important;}
#urlbar-container [focused] {min-width:500px!important;}
#urlbar-container {transition:0.7s!important;}
#urlbar {border-top-right-radius:10px!important}
#urlbar {border-bottom-right-radius:10px!important}</nowiki></pre>

What method (code) did you use to get the Tab bar displaying in the space used for the Navigation Toolbar (location bar)?
The Tab bar should be displayed above the Navigation Toolbar.

Adjusting Column Widths Via the CSS in 6.5+

It is pretty easy to adjust column widths in the CSS on 6.5+
One issue that we encountered that was slightly trickier (for non-css folks like me) was ensuring that the columns were set at 100% for the 2 column layouts.
The below code will set the narrow columns on 2/3 column layouts to be 200px wide, and ensure that the wide column maintains 100%
.columnOne               { text-align: left;}
.columnTwo               { text-align: center; }
.columnThree               { text-align: left;width:200; }
.layoutOneColumn               { table-layout: auto; }
.layoutOneColumn .columnOne     { width: 100%; }
.layoutTwoColumnNarrowWide     { table-layout: auto; }
.layoutTwoColumnNarrowWide .columnOne          { }
.layoutTwoColumnNarrowWide .columnOne .portletBody     { }
.layoutTwoColumnNarrowWide .columnTwo .portletBody     { background-color: #FFFFFF; }
.layoutTwoColumnWideNarrow               { table-layout: auto; }
.layoutTwoColumnWideNarrow .columnOne .portletBody     { background-color: #FFFFFF; }
.layoutTwoColumnWideNarrow .columnTwo          {width: 200; }
.layoutTwoColumnWideNarrow .columnTwo .portletBody     { width: 200; }
.layoutThreeColumn                    { table-layout: auto; }
.layoutThreeColumn .columnOne               { }
.layoutThreeColumn .columnOne .portletBody          { }
.layoutThreeColumn .columnTwo .portletBody          { background-color: #FFFFFF; }
.layoutThreeColumn .columnThree               { }
.layoutThreeColumn .columnThree .portletBody          { }
/* Set the invisible image */
#portletColumnFormatter_0 img {width:200px;}
#portletColumnFormatter_1 img{width:100%;}
#portletColumnFormatter_2 img{width:200px;}

I don't understand? I launch PSE 9 from the task bar. This is the screen I get.
I've tried right clicking everything I can think of w/o success.
Once I click "organize", it's too late. The organizer is coming up.
Maybe I don't know for sure what the "Organizer icon" is or where it is? Or, maybe I shouldn't start it from the task bar?

How can I enlarge only the width of the submenus in my spry horizontal menu bar?

The text in my submenus is hanging off the menu itself, but I
can't change the size of the parent menus. The submenus can be
wider than the parent menus, that's fine. That's what I what,
actually.
I've tried for two days now to figure this out and I'm really
stuck and would appreciate any input.
Thank you!

Please stop posting the same question in multiple threads. It

How to adjust the width of the accordion widget

I'm builting my 2nd wesbite with Muse and cannot find a way to decrease the width size of the accoidion widget to fit my grid. When I try to decrease it it just "jumps" back to its original spot.
I may be going crazy but I can't seem to find any information on this in the forums. I'm sure it's a simple fix I just cannot find it. Any help would be appreciated!

Reduce the width of the inner most container which is the usually the Text frame for each of the panels. Then you would be able to resize the width of the overall Accordion. Its just that the width of the Content Area cannot be less than that of the Text Frame inside.
Thanks,
Vinayak

How can we configure the width of the table in SAP DB

Hello sirs,
How can we configure the width of the table in SAP DB? (i.e to specify the total width of the sum of all columns). I need to change the default value of table width for adding fields with biggger sizes...
With best regards,
Sudheesh....

Hi,
The restrictions for using SAPDB are available at the following link http://dev.mysql.com/doc/maxdb/en/f6/069940ccd42a54e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
The 'internal length of the table' is 8088 bytes, which intern maps to the column width attribute.
Can we change the column width?
The answer is 'NO'.
check the general Column width error (-1115) at link below where it is specified that the column width can be altered http://dev.mysql.com/doc/maxdb/en/bb/57f18204fd11d2a96c00a0c9449261/content.htm
Refer link below for more details on the width of each column (based on the datatype associated with the column). http://orgs.man.ac.uk/documentation/mysql/manual_Column_types.html
So we will have to judiciously look into the boundary values for each column and set the right length because if the column is char(200) and it holds a null value then length allocated is 200 bytes.
The restriction cannot be broken.
Regards,
S.Divakar

How can I stop the add multiple bookmarks pop up from filling the width of the screen?

Whenever I try to add more than one link to my bookmarks, the pop up that asks to add those links fills the width of the screen. It happens when I try to add all the current tabs to bookmarks, as well as when I use the add on, multi links. This makes it really hard to add links because I have to go to the other side of the screen to find the ok button.
I want to resize the pop up to a more managable size. However, even though I should be able to resize it, I cannot figure out how. I've also tried minimizing it, but the next time I tried to gather more bookmarks, it was back to the big size again.

How can I increase the width of the 'mail composer' box and put the attachment box (at present on the right) below it?

The width of the 'mail composer' box is too narrow so that with my email program half the buttons are missing.
== All the time

Thanks for your swift response.
I understand the difference between the web browser and email program.
I have just started using Firefox from IE and IE displayed the new mail page full width.
Firefox displays the reading web page full width but not the compose mail page because of the layout with the attachment box to the right of the box where you write your mail.
I was hoping that there was a way to customise and change the layout.
Is that possible?

Allow the user to control the width of the edit forum post input box

I would like to control the width of of the edit-forum post input box. This could be:
automatically adjust the width of the box so that the box doesn't run off the right edge of the window.
have a user global preference to set the preferred width
at least, allow the user to change the width via the change size icon. The three horizontal bars at the lower left of the input box. You can adjust the vertical dimension, but not the horizontal. TenFourFox 4.0.1. This is probably being blocked for some obscure reason.
Here is an example of an over extended right margin:
Curiously enough, the "software" let's me adjust the width & height of the add reason to edit text, but not adjust the width of the more important edit text box.
Robert

Testing
Standard Reply box can be height adjusted but not width.
Same with Advanced Editor
No Adjustment at all in HTL Editor
Edit.
The Edit uses the Advanced Editor
Only Height Adjustment again.
I do seem to remember someone posting about the width and saying they could drag it over the edge of the right hand edge (Into the grey surround)
This may have been a post in the lounge.
It didn't actually try it at the time but have played with it since and have not seen it.
Maybe it is something they "Fixed" in both senses of the word.
Second edit.
I can't alter the box that currently reads "Message Edited by:- ..."
I also can't get this box to accept New lines (they appear in the box but don't post that way)

REQ: Add 'Fit-width' or 'Fit-visible' view mode, in which the zoom level is automatically set based on the width of the _current_ page.

Currently, the default zoom level when viewing a page of a PDF file is automatically calculated based on the width of the "widest" page of the document. This means that, if the document contains one page that is wider than the others or is in landscape orientation, then the default zoom, when viewing all the other narrower pages, is set in a way so that the page does not use the full width of the screen. This results in very poor experience, because the zoom level and the visible area of the page have to be constantly adjusted for each page. The latest update (at the time of writing) has added some extra view modes, but not the much needed 'Fit width' or 'Fit visible'.
Personally, I can find no reason valid enough to justify the lack of such a view mode. Automatically setting the zoom level based on the width of the current page so as to take advantage of the full width of the screen should be a must have feature for mobile devices, if not the default behavior. The current default behavior regarding the zoom level is pretty much useless, even on 8"/10" screens. There should be a view mode in which the full width of the screen is always used to display the document.
Examples of documents for which the Adobe Reader for Android provides a poor reading experience are:
documents which contain some of their pages in landscape orientation.
publications which, apart from the main content, also contain the full front and back cover in a single page (usually first page which is much wider than the content pages) or any other extra pages like cards or application forms (that are meant to be printed) which usually use an A4/Letter page size etc.
documents which have been cropped by external utilities or scripts so as to eliminate unneeded white margins (in some cases not all pages have the same width).
Please consider fixing the default behavior in future releases of the Reader for Android or add a 'Fit width' or 'Fit visible' view mode.
Thank you in advance.

Improved descriptions of example documents.

To add to this, if you prefer you can separate your JavaScript from your JSF pages.
Add a folder (I named mine 'js') to your application's ViewController project's public_html folder.
Via JDeveloper, create a new JavaScript file inside your newly created folder and place your JavaScript functions inside it.
You can then 'load' the .js file using the method Shantala described, with the addition of an added 'source' property to the af:reference tag.
(This can also be a URI reference to a JavaScript file hosted on a web server)
<f:facet name="metaContainer">
<af:resource source="/js/myJsFile.js" type="javascript"/>
</f:facet>The benefits of this 'split' are cleaner JSF page source and also code-highlighting and formatting within the .js file making finding and fixing bugs in your JavaScript much easier.
It appears however, that when using <af:resource> to load scripts, once the page has been submitted even once, the JavaScript is no longer available to the page. Which isn't very useful.
A solution is to use <trh:script>.
Add xmlns:trh="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/html" to your <jsp:root> tag and install the library.
then in place of the above code use:
<f:facet name="metaContainer">
<trh:script id="script1" source="/js/myJsFile.js"/>
</f:facet>Now after a page submit the JavaScript still functions.

How do I change the width of the x-scrollbar for a waveform graph?

I have a LV7.1 application that contains a waveform graph and must be usable on several PC with widely varying screen resolutions. I have decided to position and scale the front panel objects programatically, including the graph itself. The appearance of the graph is satisfactory on all screens, except for the x-scrollbar. The width of the x-scrollbar does not change when I change the size of the graph. I cannot figure out how to change the width of the scrollbar programatically to match the adjusted size of the graph. Any suggestions?
Regards,
Chris

Chris,
I don't think that you can change the width of the x axis scroll bar programatically. One thing you could do though is create your own scrollbar and change it's properties as your program runs. I wrote a quick example of how you could do this and I've attached it to this thread.
I hope this helps,
