Is it possible to use the javafx.scene.effect.Reflection in CSS for a FXML file?
And something more general (I haven't found any answer for that yet): Can I do everthing with FXML and CSS that is available on the Java API (using JavaFX 2.2)?
Is it possible to use the javafx.scene.effect.Reflection in CSS for a FXML file?
Not for JavaFX 2.2 - only dropshadow and innershadow effects can be set via CSS.
Future JavaFX versions will probably add the ability to set more effects via CSS.
For now if you want an effect like that in combination with FXML, then you can use a Controller or define the effect in FXML without using CSS.
For example:
<Button layoutX="20.0" layoutY="32.0" text="Reflected Button">
<effect>
<Reflection />
</effect>
</Button>
To visually design and define your FXML based effects, use SceneBuilder, click on your Node, go to the Properties Pane and select an effect to customize from the Effect drop down box.

You will still need to write some non-fxml embedded code to launch the app and load up your fxml.
If you use FXML's scripting feature you could do most of what can be done on the Java API. For ease of maintenance, I would however recommend using an FXML Controller or hosting script code external from your fxml files rather than embedding it in the fxml.

I am using the application layout control from the extension library. In my application banner links I would like to include icons from font-awesome but I do not manage to achieve this.
Someone to the rescue?
Balassaitis says everything I was going say only better and with pictures: https://xcellerant.net/2014/04/07/implementing-font-awesome-4-0-3-in-xpages/
NOTE: the FA classes don't work with the img tag. Use the i tag in your source instead.
I am using AEM 6.2 and trying to create a parsys component in crx, using the code below
However, the height of this parsys, in edit mode, comes as 0px.
Attached are the screenshots.
When I manually change the height to some values eg. 40px, it looks fine.
Note: I am not using any client library for the above page. (no css and js)
Futher, All sample sites like geomatrix etc have parsys showing correctly.
Could anyone guide me with what I am doing wrong?
I think that the problem is outside the component or any of the code shown here.
I think what's happening is that the css style for the div that gives the droptarget placeholder its dimensions is not loading.
That's loaded as part of the AEM authoring client libraries which you should be inheriting from the foundation page component.
Examine your page component's sling:resourceSuperType property. It should point to either wcm/foundation/components/page or wcm/foundation/components/page or inherit from a component that does.
If that is set then you have may have blocked one of the scripts within it, quite possibly head.html.
Include following code in the head section of the page component's rendering script.
<!--/* Include Adobe Dynamic Tag Management libraries for the header
<sly data-sly-include="/libs/cq/cloudserviceconfigs/components/servicelibs/servicelibs.jsp" data-sly-unwrap/>
*/-->
<!--/* Initializes the Experience Manager authoring UI */-->
<sly data-sly-include="/libs/wcm/core/components/init/init.jsp" data-sly-unwrap/>
For resolving your issue, you need to include init.jsp in the first before writing down the parsys code. I mean write like this.
<head>
<sly data-sly-include='/libs/wcm/core/components/init/init.jsp' />
</head>
<body>
<sly data-sly-resource="${'par' #resourceType='foundation/components/parsys'}" />
</body>
I think #l-klement pointed it out correctly that the problem is outside component. When I rename the landingpage.html file to body.html it starts working fine. I think this may be because of different files like head.html etc present at wcm/foundation/components/page which is required to provide proper styling and load certain required client libraries which assigns proper styling to parsys.
If the above is true, my next question would be, How can I have my own head.html, body.html, header.html, footer.html etc files without compromising with the parsys styling?
I am trying to customize the Liferay UI by using custom theme using base as as "_Styled" theme.
I have my own css files which I coped to _diff/css folder of theme and imported them "custom.css" file .However its breaking the presentation of liferay.In my custom CSS I have styles defined for all the standard tags like body,div etc which is impacting the liferay UI too.
How can I resolve this conflict? Thanks in advance!
Quick (and not the best) solution is to remove contents of liferays css file (for example "base.css") and save this empty file in /diff/css/ folder of your theme. This way the base.css will get overriden with your new empty file and thus no styles will get loaded. And your custom.css will be the only stylesheet that is taken into account.
Well, of course it all has an effect on the rest of Liferay as well. Liferay provides quite a bit of the HTML DOM of your page, and if you change the presentation of all of those elements, you'll have to take care to style Liferay's elements too.
Is this a conflict? No. Let's go for the simplest case: You declare div {color:green;}. Of course, now everything, your components as well as Liferay's components, use green text. If you only want to style your own portlets, you might want to specify some portlets: div.portlet-my-own-application {color:green;}
I know that color is a too simple usecase, but I hope it illustrates the solution strategy.
Rather than following Artem Khojoyan's suggestion to override Liferay's base.css, I'd recommend to take a look at the resulting css, what's effective etc., and simplify your own css - adapt it to be used within Liferay - by inspecting the effective CSS for every elements that looks off. Firebug or any of it's relatives are your friend.
I'm afraid, with the details "I'm doing something which has an effect on Liferay UI" there's nothing much more to help you. In fact, I'd hope that what you do has an effect on Liferay's UI... You'll just need to find the proper CSS code
Ideally if your styles are loaded from custom.css, then will overwrite liferay default styles.
In some cases, to overwrite a style in css, you can use !important
for example, liferay default style
body {
background-color: #fff
}
You can specify your style to consider irrespective of order of loading
body {
background-color: red !important;
}
My objective is to generate a graphic layout (made of Richfaces components) based on some input configuration (like an XML file) and display it in my web app. The layout is composed of graphic symbols representing various entities in the system: each symbol should be mapped to an entity in the system, in order to display its state. The XML configuration file is used to define the symbol connections and positions within the layout, and their mapping rules to an entity. How can I achieve this?
I was thinking to create a symbol library in a technology such as SVG, where you can define both the aspect and the behaviour, and then simply "wrap" each SVG symbol in a dynamically created richfaces component, which would allow me to handle both the user interactions and the mapping rules defined in the symbol. Unfortunately JSF/Richfaces don't support SVG images, therefore I would have to use plain HTML without Richfaces features.
Another way to achieve that would be to simply define generic symbols in the XML file, each one of them with an attribute specifying the related image, the mapping rule, etc., and then generate the corresponding richfaces component from within the web-app. By doing so, would I be able to then display all the symbols in the right position and therefore generate the complete dynamic layout?
Could you suggest a better approach? Thank you very much.
I believe that HTML5 has direct support for SVG images, however it is still an embedded object in regular HTML after all. This too is something I have been waiting for however I don't believe any of the current JSF2 component libraries have an offerring for this yet.
Here is a good explanation of a possible workaround:
Getting started with SVG graphics objects in JSF 2.0 pages
Potentially you could build a custom facelet component utilizing this workaround?
My thought though is that when your only tool is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. I would try to utilize an RIA (Rich Internet Application) technology better suited for display and manipulation of vector graphics like HTML5, Flash+Flex, Silverlight, etc..
Is it possible to make the PrimeFaces's Editor component, right to left?
It seems not to support dir and style attributes... :(
in my experience controls in jsf framework like prime/open/etc.. don't support RTL using html #dir,
usually the interfaces of these controls are built using Javascript, so probably you should work at that level.
Can I suggest you to consider two other alternatives to jsf controls in this case?:
Using a javascript html editor (like elrte, maybe is easier to customize and it has also Arabic translation). http://elrte.org/
Using the Flex html editor (is Flash, if you can, and Flex support RTL for all controls)
F.
Just bumped into this thread by accident,
anyway I remember that i did the RTL with jquery like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$("j_idt33:inputtextlist").contents().find('html').attr('dir', 'rtl');
});
had to find the id with firebug , inputtextlist was the id i gave to the editor , and ypu can always use a smarter jquery selector (with suffix match)
