How to center layers on a webpage

how do I center layers in a webpage so no matter what size
monitor someone is using the items will be centered?

Resolution or monitor size is not the critical issue. Browser
viewport
width is.
This method will work, subject to the limitations that using
layers for page
layout bring -
Change this -
</head>
to this -
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body { text-align:center; }
#wrapper { text-align:left; width:760px; margin:0
auto;position:relative; }
/* 760px will display on an 800px screen maximized browser
window without */
/* horizontal scrollbars. */
-->
</style>
</head>
change this -
<body ...>
to this -
<body ...>
<div id="wrapper">
and this -
</body>
to this -
<!-- /wrapper -->
</div>
</body>
and see if that helps.

  • How to center text in shapes

    how to center text in shapes. specifically circles.  I want text to be centered directly in the middle

    A lot depends on what you mean by centered, the number of lines of text, the actual font, and whether there are descenders.
    Using vertical justification set to centered may or may not work for you, depending on the above factors, as it depends on the baseline, I believe, rather than the acutal glyph dimensions. You could try adding baseline shift, I suppose, to make fine vertical adjustments, or you can bite the bullet and use the old-fashioned method of two frames.

  • How to center the text displayed in a JList

    Hi,
    The width of the JList display area is wider than the text displayed. I tried to center the text displayed to make it look nicer. I had tried using "setAlignmentX(Component.CENTER_ALIGNMENT)" in my own ListCellRenderer class but did not work. Any idea how to center the text?
    Fai.

    Yes, I am using JLabels in my renderer and the following is the code:
    public class MyCellRenderer extends JLabel implements ListCellRenderer {
         private static final Color HIGHLIGHT_COLOR = new Color(0, 0, 128);
         public MyCellRenderer() {
              setOpaque(true);
              setIconTextGap(12);
         public Component getListCellRendererComponent(
              JList list,
              Object value,
              int index,
              boolean isSelected,
              boolean cellHasFocus)
              String entry = (String)value;
              setText(entry);
              setFont(new Font("Ariel", Font.BOLD, 18));
              setAlignmentX(Component.CENTER_ALIGNMENT);
              if(isSelected) {
                   setBackground(HIGHLIGHT_COLOR);
                   setForeground(Color.white);
              } else {
                   setBackground(Color.white);
                   setForeground(Color.black);
              return this;
    Can you point out where to implement the centering logic?
    Thanks,
    Fai.

    Ah, no. They published the only drivers HP gave them. If they didn't publish them, then Mac users would be unable to use HP devices at all, except for those devices supported by 3rd parties such as Gutenprint and the HPIJS Project. HP is solely responsible for the state of their drivers. And it's not just Mac drivers which are bad; a lot of Windows drivers stink, too. HP simply has a problem writing drivers. For the most part they have excellent hardware, but truly terrible software.

  • How to center in a Scene?

    I'm liking the layouts, but I haven't figured out how to center something in a Scene. It doesn't take LayoutInfo, for example.
    What's a good way to center a Component (a VBox in this case) in a Scene?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    You can do it the good old way:
    def IMAGES_WIDTH = 100;
    def IMAGES_HEIGHT = 100;
    var COLUMN_NB = 3;
    var ROW_NB = 3;
    var scene: Scene;
    var previews: Container;
    Stage
      title: "Test of Tile layout"
      scene: scene = Scene
        width: 500
        height: 500
        fill: Color.LAVENDER
        content:
          previews = Tile
            hgap: 10
            vgap: 10
            layoutX: bind (scene.width - previews.width) / 2
            layoutY: bind (scene.height - previews.height) / 2
            columns: COLUMN_NB
            content: for (i in [ 1 .. COLUMN_NB * ROW_NB ])
              ImageView
                image: Image
                  url: "{__DIR__}clock.gif"
                  width: IMAGES_WIDTH
                  preserveRatio: true

    How to center the content in crystal report viewer in code?
    Edited by: Mathew_666 on Oct 6, 2011 5:20 AM

    Since there is no control for center you'll need to do the math on your own. This is just a rough draft, but you'll get the idea.
    One of the things you'll need to figure out is your buffer to help you give a centered feel. We'll say that value is 50 in this case.
    Height
    int buffer = 50;
    int formHeight = 1000; // we'll assume a height of 1000 in this case
    int crystalTop = buffer;
    int crystalViewerHeight = formHeight - (buffer * 2); // buffer is at the top and bottom
    Width
    int formWidth = 1000; // we'll assume a width of 1000 in this case
    int crystalLeft = buffer;
    int crystalViewerWidth = formWidth - (buffer * 2); // buffer is at the top and bottom

  • How to center menu and add spacing between buttons?

    Here is my site: http://lauraportfolio.hostoi.com/index.html (If you are using Google Chrome you can right click and select "view page source" to see the html of the page)
    See how the menu button are justified the left of the light pink menu bar? How can I put them in the center?
    I would like to know how to center the menu, and then add spacing between the buttons.
    At one point I added spacing between the buttons using CSS padding, but when I did that the last menu button, "Graphics" ran off the pink menu bar and became invisible and all kinds of crazy ugly stuff!
    Below is what I beleive to be all of the CSS styling for the menu:
    #menubar
              width: 900px;
              height: 72px;
              padding: 0;
              background-color: transparent;
              background-image: url(transparentpink.png);
              background-repeat: repeat;
    ul#menu, ul#menu li
    { float: left;
      margin: 0;
      padding: 0;}
    ul#menu li
              list-style: none;
              padding-right: 0px;
              padding-left: 0px;
              margin-right: auto;
              margin-left: auto;
    ul#menu li a
              letter-spacing: 0.1em;
              display: block;
              float: left;
              height: 37px;
              text-align: center;
              color: #f0dbca;
              text-transform: none;
              text-decoration: none;
              background: transparent;
              font-family: bonvenoCF, verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
              font-size: 150%;
              font-style: normal;
              font-weight: normal;
              font-variant: normal;
              padding-top: 29px;
              padding-right: 26px;
              padding-bottom: 6px;
              padding-left: 26px;
    ul#menu li a:hover, ul#menu li.selected a, ul#menu li.selected a:hover
              color: #F0DBCA;
              background-color: #F1836A;

    PART 1
    So as long as the width of the buttons plus the padding doesn't go over 900px it won't run off the page?
    Right.   The "box model" in CSS works like this:
    width + padding + border = actual visible/rendered width of box
    height + padding + border = actual visible/rendered height of box.
    PART 2
    And do you know how I can center the whole thin instead of it being left-aligned on the menu bar?
    You can't center floated menu items.  The best you can do is make your menu fit the entire width of the container (or as close as you can) as described in PART 1 above. 
    To center your #menu container, use margin:0 auto;
    To center text, use text-align:center on the #menu li a.

    To get to the page where you make the "always deny" setting change, simply click on this link:  http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager02.htm l
