blue 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 Is there any way to change the size of the content box of features. For example I want to make the right side of the screent in the feature smaller and the left bigger. Then stretch them both longer. Right now they are about 400x300 and 400x600 respectively. I would like them configurable to 500x200 and 500x600 (height x width). I want the TV in the website bigger with a better aspect ratio; see here. http://www.blue-point-trading.com/ Thank you...

Andrew 207 Report post Posted January 18, 2010 yes, this is possible.. its a question of css. just add some custom css using the following rules: ` #feature .fcontent {width: ##px} #feature .fmedia {width: ##px} ` where the hashes are the desired widths of the content and media areas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue 0 Report post Posted January 19, 2010 ok i can change the width of the 2 on IE, but not the height? Also why does the content portion on this render ok (the width anyway) on IE but the width command has no effect on Safari or Chrome (yes i dumped the cache)? Any secrets? Thanks for your response ..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jnoh 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2010 sorry for the wait blue. so is the css added right now? just to clarify, you added "height: ##px" but it's not rendering properly? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2010 No i took it out. But i put it back. The following is what is happening: IE: It seems to make the media width stretch over the over the fcontent portion but height does not work at all. Chrome/Safari: Media does not stretch over the fcontent section and the height does not work at all. Firefox: Media does not stretch over the fcontent seciton and the height stretches over the features over the 3 features we put below this feature. The code we currently have in the CSS section: #feature .fcontent {width: 200px} #feature .fmedia {width: 680px} #feature . fcontent {height: 600} #feature . fmedia {height: 600} The code in the media portion is: <script src="http://static.livestream.com/scripts/playerv2.js?channel=bluepoint&layout=playerEmbedWide&backgroundColor=0x497FAE&backgroundAlpha=1&backgroundGradientStrength=0&chromeColor=0x497FAE&headerBarGlossEnabled=true&controlBarGlossEnabled=true&chatInputGlossEnabled=true&uiWhite=true&uiAlpha=0.5&uiSelectedAlpha=0.7&dropShadowEnabled=true&dropShadowHorizontalDistance=10&dropShadowVerticalDistance=0&paddingLeft=0&paddingRight=0&paddingTop=0&paddingBottom=60&cornerRadius=0&backToDirectoryURL=null&bannerURL=null&bannerText=null&bannerWidth=320&bannerHeight=50&showViewers=true&embedEnabled=true&chatEnabled=true&onDemandEnabled=true&programGuideEnabled=false&fullScreenEnabled=true&reportAbuseEnabled=false&gridEnabled=falseOn=true&initialIsMute=false&initialVolume=10&contentId=null&initThumbUrl=null&playeraspectwidth=4&playeraspectheight=3&mogulusLogoEnabled=true&width=670&height=400&wmode=window" type="text/javascript"></script> I have played with a few width and height numbers in the CSS and the media portion of the TV screen and can not get anything that looks good. It seems that there maybe perhaps some other container sizing issues as well? Please help .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew 207 Report post Posted January 21, 2010 ` #feature . fcontent {height: 600} #feature . fmedia {height: 600} ` these rules need 'px' after the number or it won't work. Are you using Firebug? It will allow you to try different sizes right on the page using the inspect tool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2010 sorry it does have the px ...it was an error in my post. No firebug. I can see some effect when changing the values, its just not right. Changing real time is good, but not sure this will get me any where - and a bit complicated. I think this is a simple request that a theme IMHO should have as an option, surely there should be away to do this? Any ideas....it feels like some dynamic sizing is occuring that won't let the code to work properly... Thanks.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew 207 Report post Posted January 24, 2010 There isn't any dynamic sizing, the widths of various element just need to match. after looking at your site it looks like you've figured it out... at least I see a difference in size. Is this correct? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jnoh 0 Report post Posted January 26, 2010 hey blue, so these are the dimensions you'd like? #feature .fcontent {width: 200px} #feature .fmedia {width: 680px} #feature . fcontent {height: 600px} #feature . fmedia {height: 600px} Why it seems like its being "overlapped" is that the background "container" is actually a static image. It doesn't get dynamically resized like the text containers. Also, there may be an issue with another container interfering with the height. Let me know the exact dimensions that you'd like so that I can modify the page specifically to your needs (i'll send you the code and/or files after. Also, email me at [email protected] and we'll continue this thread there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
