Layers list is cut off in Basic Viewer

BenAller — Thu, 29 Aug 2013 14:17:07 GMT

I'm using the Basic Viewer web mapping application template with a lot of layers in the layers list. Unfortunately, the layers list is getting cut off at the bottom of the screen and there's no scroll bar to allow users to access the layers at the bottom. I was figuring that a scroll bar would exist within the template. Is there a way to add a scroll bar? I'm ok with downloading the template customizing if need be. Link: http://chesco.maps.arcgis.com/apps/OnePane/basicviewer/index.html?appid=b62e349e5509445fbdaa6993abdd92fa

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ben

Ben,

I brought that up to ESRI a couple of months back and they said they would look into that issue. Maybe somebody found a solution for it!

Yes, unfortunately we're not adding a scroll bar. I've documented the issue. The only solution I can think of is to download the template and modify it yourself. You'd then have to deploy it to your own web server.

Thanks,

Mike

Deploying on our own web server is possible. Can ESRI provide any documentation or work around solution for modifying the template?

Thanks,
Ben

Ben,

Try the following and let me know if it enables the scroll bar:

In layout.css add the following class

.customMenuPopup{   overflow-y:auto !important;   height:70% !important; }

In layout.js search for the code that creates the layer menu (~ line 808) and add the baseClass as shown below:

        var menu = new dijit.Menu({             id: 'layerMenu',             baseClass: "customMenu"         });
