[xwiki-users] collapsed panels
Hi all, After googling for a while, I realize that the collapsing/expanding trick is a quite vaste issue! Please, is it possible to force XWiki to deliver collapsed panels? Or even better: is it possible to set a panels to be delivered , by default, collapsed or expanded? Thanks! Cheers, Ricardo -- Ricardo Rodríguez Your EPEC Network ICT Team

Yes, that's what we do now.... :) Check in edit mode for example, there are panels that are collapsed. Edit those panels and you'll see how it's done. Moreover we even remember when a user has collapsed/expanded a panel in a cookie... :) -Vincent

I'm really starting to enjoy this stuff... :-) Thanks! I see what you say: XWiki syntax help has the clues... even though I don't see them right now :-) I've also reached http://openrico.org/, what also seems of maximum interest. By the way: XWiki syntax help seems to have some problems to expand under Safari 3.0.4 (5523.15), Mac OS X 10.5.2. It works fine when accessed from Panels, but it doesn't expand "sub-accordions" (Titles, Paragraphs,...) when access in edit mode. Could you reproduce this problem over there?

Hi, I am afraid I am not able to understand how this is done. There is a JavaScript script at the end of the panels show as collapsed "by default". It must be togglePanelVisibility which is controlling the collapsed state, but I am not able to understand how. For instance, the XWiki Syntax Help panel reads: <script type="text/javascript">new Rico.Accordion( 'xwikisyntaxhelp', {panelHeight:'max'} );togglePanelVisibility((document.getElementById('xwikisyntaxhelppanel')).getElementsByTagName( 'div').item(0));</script> As far as I see here, if there are no child nodes in the accordion, it is not possible to establish a "collapsed" state for the panel. Or I am not able to find how. Please, how could I collapse a panel as simple as... #panelheader('Consumidores/as') item 1 #panelfooter() Thanks you so much for your help, Ricardo -- Ricardo Rodríguez Your EPEC Network ICT Team
Hi, I've temporarily solved the issue by: 1. Creating a new macro.vm file and storing it in the folder of the skin used by the virtual xwiki. This avoid to modify the original macro.vm stored in /templates. 2. Creating a new macro: #panelheaderc. It is just the same code than #panelheader but $expanded is set to "collapsed". I am not able to pass this parameter to #panelheader or/and #largepanelheader. Keep trying...

Yes you're right. I've checked and we have no panel macro that accepts a collapsed/expanded status. This would be a good addition. Feel free to create a jira issue for this and to attach a patch to it! :) Thanks -Vincent

Thanks, Vincent, I'll do that as soon as I better understand how these panels work. My "trial and error" approach is a bit dangerous so far! In a previous message here I've proposed to create a new macro.vm file in the skin folder. This doesn't work. It stopped here after a servlet container restart. I have had to move the macros to /templates/macros.vm. So, I've not avoided to edit the original file. And this makes the changes hard to follow. I am also facing some doubts with CSS behavior. Namely, those classes defined in colorblack.css and used in panels macros. I will keep this thread posted event though I will create a JIRA issue about this.

You can use #includeMacros("maropagename") -Vincent

Used! It works fine with this line in each panel... #includeMacros("XWiki.Macros") XWiki.Macros contents the new macros and /templates/macro.vm remains untouched. I keep working on a panels macro that accepts a collapsed/expanded status. Perhaps this doubt is silly but, must a JIRA issue about this be created in XAPANELS, XE or XWIKI?

XWIKI (i.e. Core), since it'll be located in the templates dir. Thanks -Vincent
