Set "max-height" with a slider

#1

Hello,

I will adjust the max-height of .tc-scrollable-demo:

Code:

<span style="font-size: 0.85em;font-weight: 400;">
 Höhe Tiddler: </span> &nbsp;
<$range tiddler="displayheight" min="500" max="760" default="650" increment="10" class="slider"/> 
&nbsp;
<span style="font-size: 0.7em;" > {{displayheight}} px </span>

<style>

/* max Fensterhöhe */
.tc-scrollable-demo {max-height: {{!!displayheight}} !important; }
</style>

What I’m doing wrong?
When I check with F12 I see the default value is choosen…

Thanks in advance
Stefan

Your $range widget is saving the input in the text field of the tiddler named “displayheight”, but your CSS is referring to {{!!displayheight}}, which is the “displayheight” field of the current tiddler. Also, the CSS needs to specify the units (e.g., “px”). You can also omit “!important”, as it is not needed.

Try this:

.tc-scrollable-demo { max-height: {{displayheight}}px; }

Thanks @EricShulman for feedack - but values still not overtaken:

I notice that there is a strange erroneous “!important: ;” attribute defined for the .tc-scrollable-demo class, even though your <style>...</style> no longer has “!important” specified. This suggests to me that perhaps you might have another <style>...</style> being applied from somewhere else that is masking your most recent changes.

Removed the wrong “!important” - but still not ok:

Also not with this code:
.tc-scrollable-demo { max-height: {{displayheight}}px !important; }

Without slider it works:

You don’t need to use max-height when there is a div with overflow: auto;, it is enought the changing the value of property height.

This example works in tiddlywiki.com.

<span style="font-size: 0.85em;font-weight: 400;">
 Höhe Tiddler: </span> &nbsp;
<$range tiddler="displayheight" min="500" max="760" default="650" increment="10" class="slider"/> 
&nbsp;
<span style="font-size: 0.7em;" > {{displayheight}} px </span>

<style>
.tc-scrollable-demo {height: {{displayheight}}px; }
</style>

<div class="tc-scrollable-demo">
{{Community}}
</div>

It didn’t work at my wiki :frowning_face: - so I take this code

<style>
.tc-scrollable-demo {height: {{displayheight}}px; }
</style>

and tagged this code

.tc-scrollable-demo {height: {{displayheight}}px; }

as $:/tags/Stylesheet.

Than it works - for height and max-height !?

Thanks to @EricShulman and @Alvaro :+1:
