I have a site built using the responsive Skeleton CSS framework (http://getskeleton.com) but when viewing on a phone in portrait mode, three columns across is automatically adjusted so the boxes are vertically stacked rather than all on one line. This has been fine in general but in one particular instance when the boxes have very little content, I need them to stay horizontal - all in one row/on one line. I cannot see anywhere in the css file where this is adjustable though?!
I ended up going old school and creating one twelve column row and putting the column divs inside a td tag each. I then applied some conditional padding at the different breakpoints. Sometimes, very occasionally, you still can't beat a table in my humble opinion!

I'm trying to map the following with swiperjs. actually quite easy. I define breakpoint how many swipes are displayed, but I don't want to define a fixed distance between the slides, I want the existing slides to be evenly distributed in the slide area. on the right and left side of the slide area without space, like flex row space between...
Here a test project, 3 slides, and a fixed width.

I have a UWP app that I am working on, and using absolute position creates problems when using the app on screen sizes different than the one it was designed for.
I'm not sure how exactly i should place elements at distances from each other without using margin and absolute position. How should I be doing this?
Edit: I am using XAML to design the UI.
Well, it depends on what UI you want to build up.
There are various panels and, usually, there is NO need to use absolute position in most cases.
Usually, the Grid panel is used to create flexible layouts, by adding rows and columns: for example, if you want to create a page with some content and a bottom app bar with buttons on it, you usually create a Grid with as many rows as you need for your content controls, plus one for the bottom appbar itself.
Years ago, I also started building UIs by using absolute position for every element, but then times passes and you start having a flexible mind in order to build flexible layouts.
Sorry to not answer any further, but your question is just TOO broad to give any precise answer.
Best regards
How do you properly position elements in XAML without using absolute position?
You should use an appropriate layout panel:
Layout panels are containers that allow you to arrange and group UI elements in your app. The built-in XAML layout panels include RelativePanel, StackPanel, Grid, VariableSizedWrapGrid, and Canvas.
At the moment I'm writing a tool to extract parts of frames of mp4-video files. You draw rectangles on the video and the tool extracts .png-images at regular intervals. Now I want to give the user the ability to edit the properties of individual rectangles they have drawn on the video (exact position, frequency of frame extraction, time frame, etc.). I like the approach that QtDesigner takes for editing ui elements. You can see what I mean in this screenshot i found on the internet
The yellow and green table contains name value pairs for the different properties of the selected ui element. The table is devided into section depending on what class the property was inherented from. In the Screenshot the green part is inherented from MarbleWidget. The yellow part is inherented form a different class. I want each division to refer to a different rectangle and the color to match the colour the rectangle is drawn in on the screen.
I've tried using QTreeView, QTableView, QToolBox and QTableWidget but none of these - to my knowledge - offer putting QWidgets in the "value" part of the table. In the screenshot you can see tick boxes for example. In my case I would want to use a range slider. Does anyone know what class is used to Implement this table?
I think you'll find it difficult to use the designer classes in a normal application.
See qtpropertybrowser for a properties editor.
See setIndexWidget for a static widget. As it says, use QItemDelegate for dynamic widgets. Note that the specific item subclasses have their own methods like QTableWidget.setCellWidget.
So,
I have a fairly simple parent div containing two child divs, one is text (floated left), the other contains an image (floated left against the first child)...the float of the second is kind of irrelevant (I just don't want it to drop down below). But what I want to achieve is for the image to sit in the bottom right of the parent and STAY there. At the same time I want it to be part of a fluid grid and for the distance from the bottom/right to also be responsive.
I tried absolute positioning (with an extra parent added around it to position:relative), which just didn't work at all...it could only be left/top positioned which then wouldn't work in %'s.
I then tried adding padding (top, left) instead of using positioning, thinking I could maybe push it into place...which worked great for keeping it to the right (pushing left), but obviously didn't work for the bottom (pushing from the top), as this value needed to increase as the screen decreased rather than the other way around (doh!).
Just wondering if anyone has any ideas or creative solutions?
I know I'm trying to do a number of tricky things all at the same time!!
Initially I was under the impression that it uses the table row slideup/down animations while inserting/deleting new rows but I doubt if it's doing that as it does it so fluidly even with thousands of items in the list (otherwise it would take a lot of time for the deletions/insertions to work).
Am I right in my assumption that it's simply attaching a new instance of the News list at the bottom of the screen, shrinking the above one while the one at the bottom expands to fill up space?
UPDATE:
Please see this video of what I mean: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4960327/ReederAnim.mov
I can not tell you exactly how Silvio Rizzi made this, but as you see in the playback, a list view is added behind the shown list view, and the front list view fades out (.alpha = 0.0;) while the list view behind it expands its height per row.
When you desicate it frame by frame it becomes quite clear what he does, and it is really not that advanced. But I have to admit, with the white "milky" polished interface, it looks quite neat.
In addition, you can see that while animating, the background list view only renders the top 7 entries (hopefully calculated by dividing the view height with the average height of the cells shown) making the list view quick to load. Then afterwards, he can load an extended array of cells once you start scrolling, or in a background thread starting once the animation is complete.
