I'm curious what is the right way to have the content (e.g. div) occupy 100% of t:panelTab inside of t:panelTabbedPane. It appears that the content gets rendered within div or span for which there's no way to specify style. The only way I was able to do that was using absolute layout. Is there a better way?
Did you try providing a custom CSS class using the tabContentStyleClass attribute for <t:panelTabbedPane>? Suppose you call it ownStyleClass, the pane gets rendered like
<tr class="myFaces_panelTabbedPane_contentRow">
<td class="myFaces_panelTabbedPane_pane ownStyleClass" colspan="8">
which should allow for any custom layout.

I am trying to change the p:growl position of primefaces through the .ui-growl class to use position: sticky. However, since the component is rendered at the end in body, the relative behavior of the position does not work as I would like.
Is there any way to use the sticky position for this component?
Or some way to get the component to render where it is declared?
PrimeFaces 5.1;
Mojarra 2.1;
Disclamer: I tried this with the PF 7.0 showcase, but I think the basics also work with the 5.1 version.
You effectively have 4 options. The latter three all need you to inspect the javascript source of the component (which is open, so you can ALWAYS inspect it before asking questions, the java source is irrelevant here) and for the first solution it helps to see how the component works, but inspecting with a browser developer tool is sufficient (that is how I did it).
Basic analysis with or without looking at the source
This is a variant on your "Or some way to get the component to render where it is declared?". Since on the client side, it is all plain html, css and javascript, you can manipulate with al tools available on the client-side.
You can see that the main part of the grow is html technically rendered where it is declared. Check the PrimeFaces showcase and you'll see
<span id="j_idt700:growl" class="ui-growl-pl" data-widget="widget_j_idt700_growl" data-summary="data-summary" data-detail="data-detail" data-severity="all,error" data-redisplay="true"></span>
right inside the form where it also is in the xhtml. The javascript of the component creates the client side dom things, amongst which is the container that you see right before the end of the body (from the showcase)
<div id="j_idt700:growl_container" class="ui-growl ui-widget" style="z-index: 1002;"></div>
This last piece is html is where the individual growls are added to when they need to be rendered and hence the part that makes the component in most normal cases behave correctly but needs to be done differently in your case.
Solution 1, pure client-side component agnostic solution
Effectively this is as simple as moving this piece of html in the dom, see How to move an element into another element?.
In the online showcase I put the following jquery code in the browser developer tool console
$("#j_idt700\\:growl_container").prependTo(".layout-content");
And added the following css
position: sticky;
top: 10px;
float: right; // this is needed in the showcase, might not always be needed
And it worked.
The jquery should be put somewhere in your page where it runs after the component javascript is executed, so best is to do it right before the end of the body.
Keep in mind that the j_idt700 prefix is the dynamic id of the form in the showcase (it does not have a fixed id here), but you can also use different selectors based on the classes or whatever)
Solution 2, changing the source 'locally'
In the javascript source, you can see where the container is technically rendered
render: function() {
//create container
this.jq = $('<div id="' + this.id + '_container" class="ui-growl ui-widget"></div>');
this.jq.appendTo($(document.body));
//render messages
this.show(this.cfg.msgs);
},
Changing the this.jq.appendTo($(document.body)); in some way to have it appended to the current html node ('this'?) will make it work too. Regarding the overriding, you have two options
How do I find and/or override JavaScript in Primefaces component based on widgetVar?
Override a method from a Primefaces specific widget
Solution 3 Changing the source server side
Effectively you do the first part of #2 but patch the source and create a new custom PrimeFaces version
Solution 4 Make this feature avaiable for others too
What can be done here is to create a new attribute on the component and patch the source in some places so it is configurable to have the component behave as it is now or as sticky (they changed the existing 'sticky' attribute to 'keepAlive' in 7.0.x so sticky is avalable again ;-)). Of course this should be submitted as a patch then...
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 would like to be able to specify exactly where a ContentPart is rendered in a view.
For example, in my Content.Summary.cshtml I want to wrap my title and first image from the gallery (I'm using ZenGallery) in an anchor tag. I thought I would be able to do it like this but the gallery template is not rendered.
<a href="#Url.ItemDisplayUrl((IContent)Model)">
<h2>#Model.ContentItem.TitlePart.Title</h2>
#Display(Model.ContentItem.ZenGalleryPart)
</a>
But if I do the following then the gallery template (ZenGallery.Summary.cshtml) is shown along with all other parts.
#Display(Model.Content)
I understand that the recommended way to do this is probably using Placement.info, is that right? But this way makes more sense to me and would allow for more fine grain control of the end markup. How could I achieve the markup I'm looking for?
This should give you a pretty good start on doing precisely what you want: http://weblogs.asp.net/bleroy/archive/2011/07/31/so-you-don-t-want-to-use-placement-info.aspx
VisualForce pages can have the format:
<apex:page standardController="Case" >
<div id="content"></div>
<script>
... javascript to render a UI into #content ...
</script>
</apex>
which means it can appear on the "Case" layout. If you want a generic VisaulForce page (appearing all alone on a tab, let's say) you can remove the standardController parameter:
<apex:page>
...
</apex>
Is there a way to specify that a single VisualForce page can appear anywhere? (In our case, it's a javascript utility which is not layout-dependent).
I'm new to SalesForce, and the closest I could come up with would be to dynamically populate the standardController field (if that is supported) but I feel there must be a better way. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Do you mean it's a piece of javascript you can include in other pages? If so you should be doing it as a component, or you could put the JS in a static resource and include that in your pages.
If it's actually a page, you can include it in a page layout as well, though it's a little clunky and goes in an iFrame so that would probably cause problems for you.
When a list item has an attachment, SharePoint automatically renders a paperclip image for that particular row, which indicates that the item has an attachment. Is there any way to change the image that is rendered?
The site is in a shared hosting environment, so I can't simply replace the image on the file system. Also, there are other lists that are part of the same site that should use the default image.
Is there any way to change the image that is rendered for items with an attachment on an individual list basis?
EDIT: Following is the HTML that is rendered:
<td class="ms-vb2">
<img align="absbottom" src="http://devsandbox/_layouts/images/attach.gif" alt="Attachment"/>
</td>
The only real way you'll be able to do this is to use jQuery (or some other javascript library). You'll need to locate the elements you want to update on the page and change the URL's
$('img[src*=attach.gif]').each(function() {
$(this).attr('src', '/path/to/new/image.png');
}
My jQuery may be a touch wrong but that should be near enough to give you an idea of what to do
Edit - The best way to have this down would be via a custom WebPart which renders the JavaScript. This way it can easily be dropped into any page you want
i don't know which element off the top, but I would look for it in one of the stylesheets and use SharePoint designer to do the replacement work for a specific list.
Use Firebug to inspect the element that you want to revert. This will tell you the css class and other properties used by that element. Then write your own class and add it to the core.css file or if you want, add it to the css for the Site/Site Collection through the MasterPages link in Site Settings.
EDIT
I used firebug to look at an image in SharePoint and here is how it is rendering.
<img id="img_1-2_" class="rpo-gif rpo-gif-2" border="0" style="padding: 0px;" alt="Expand/Collapse" src="/_layouts/images/minus.gif"/>
As you can see it is using a class and setting a src to '/_layouts/images/minus.gif'. Well you can go find that file in the 12Hive directory and then replace it with an image of your choice that has the same name.
