I would like to display descriptive text, next to each image in a Colorbox gallery. I can give sufficient width to get me space around the image using the colorbox parameter 'width' and change some CSS to get the space to the left of the image. Now, I want to place text in the white space. All the content is generated dynamically but that does not matter for this question as the colorbox code itself is generated using PhP.
Any ideas of doing this without changing the colorbox JS code?

I'm trying to build a section with text overlapping an image using relative positioning. However the text within the text container is forcing below the image instead of overlapping it. I've tried z-index, float, replacing image with div box, but nothing seems to get the text to clear the image (the text wrapper overlaps fine). Anyone have any idea how to get the text elements to overlap the image as well instead of breaking around it?

I’m creating an app and need to make a signup/login page. I added a background using a picture and a zstack and on top I have the text and text fields. The text fields are showing up but not allowing me to add padding as well as there is no title text showing. Please help.my code
Did some more testing to find out that this happens whenever I use a textfield over an image. Not sure if this is a bug or not but it seems to be because as soon as the zstack is removed everything works.
At last ive discovered the issue, the text fields are extending way out of the canvas. Ive fixed the width of the textfield as a temporary solution but still looking for a way to fix this relative to the screen rather than the background as the field extends to the size of the image. Let me know if you can help as im just starting to use xcode!
I think its because the image cause canvas to be much more bigger and you use edgesIgnoringSafearea(.all)
Try to use on the image clipped() method and i think it will fix your issue with the padding.
And also try to add foregroundColor to the test fields
I'm trying to create a live tile for my application, using a user control.
The user control contains a grid, an image and a rectangle filled with color.
Now here comes the funny part.
I want the rectangle to act as a background for the tile's title, and the image to fill the rest of the tile. And i said to myself, well, lets put some rows in that grid and set the like you usually set them in a WPF/SL application.
I then write the entire thing in a WBM and save it to isostore.
The problem is, the parser seems to ignore the presence of grid's rows. regardless of what I try, the rectangle is not shown, and the image covers the full tile, when it should only cover the first row. It is as if the grid didn't even existed.
Another funny aspect is that it doesn't matter if I use rows or columns, the result is the same.
Any ideas?
Are you using the following method?
Dynamic LiveTile - adding background image?
I recently implemented a Live Tile using a Grid with Rows and Columns for layout of some TextBlocks. I encountered similar challenges, so I placed the control that I was using for my Live Tile on a blank page in my app to better see what was happening. Does the control render correctly when displayed on a page (versus being rendered to a WriteableBitmap)?
Another idea. Instead of trying to position the Rectangle relative to the tile's Title, why not leave the Title property blank and put the same text in a TextBlock within the user control?
If you are careful about the font and positioning of the TextBlock, the text on the resulting background image can appear indistinguishable from text displayed from the Title property. I decided to follow this strategy myself. I found the font information in the following answer:
Font size and family for a tile's title
Otherwise, could you post an example of the XAML you are using?
OK, So I am working on this Nivo Slider for a website I am doing for my school... I am wondering if it is possible to actually get the Nivo Slider to transition with text below. Not necessarily a caption but like when the Nivo goes to a new image the text below will go to another bit of text. I have the Nivo working in all browsers but I was curious if anyone knew if this was even possible. I tryed putting large text in a caption but It just made the caption go all over the Nivo instead of down below the image like I want..
Thanks for any suggestions!
You can place text below the gallery using the caption option and just display it below using CSS.
Simply go in to the nivo-slider.css file and change the position of the nivo-caption class to relative.
yes this is possible, with simple css modification you can display the captions under the slider and they'll fade at the same time as the images.
Kind regards
I'm working on a Firefox extension, and am having problems getting relative constraints on the width of elements in the sidebar. For example, I want a description element in the sidebar that will always be as big as the sidebar when the sidebar is resized, and has text wrapping accordingly.
If I put a description in a box with a fixed maximum width, it will wrap correctly, but I can't get relative widths to work correctly using css. If is set the max-width to be 100% in css, it seems to just ignore it and the text will be on a single line and will overflow the sidebar. Any suggestions on how to put relative width constraints on a box in XUL so that text will wrap correctly?
It sounds like setting maximum width isn't what you really want. Have a look at https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XUL_Tutorial/The_Box_Model, setting flex attribute would be the right approach to make an element fill all the available space (typically flex="1"). The corresponding CSS property would be -moz-box-flex: 1.
