AEM Grid Resizing Issue

Avatar

Level 5

Hi All - I am running into issues with AEM Grid. I have configured the required config for AEM grid but when I refresh the page after the resizing, the resized layout is not persisting.
This is happening in Editable template and AEM version is 6.5. I have configured the below. Can someone tell me what could be the issue.

 

com.day.cq.wcm.mobile.core.impl.MobileEmulatorProvider - Added the page component.
Included the grid.less(Clientlib) in the template page policy (head) and also in the page component as well.
Added the device group property(cq:deviceGroups) in the jcr:content as well
The resized layouting breakpoints offset/width values are captured in the jcr as expected but when I refresh the page, the offset values are not changed that is expected but the layouting is not reflected in the page.
Also verified the nodes in the editable template and it has the cq:responsive node as well.

Hi @v1101,

Can you confirm if you have amended anything in grid.less file (on top of one that comes OOTB with AEM maven archetype project)

As a final try to narrow down,

  • Create a new maven archetype project in your local instance and observe the behavior 
  • Check the behavior in we-retail site

@Vijayalakshmi_S - I have included the grid.less clientlib in the template. I could verify that the clientlib is loading. is loading

Shared grid.less file looks fine (same as the one that comes OOTB with AEM maven archetype project). I would like to iterate that as a final try to narrow down the cause of the issue, check we-retail site pages or create new maven archetype project. (This will help decide if its project specific or at instance level issue. If its former case, we can then dig down if there any other project specific CSS which is overriding/impacting)

@Vijayalakshmi_S - Thanks for your inputs. I have verified other projects in the same instance and I could replicate the same issue. Since we don't have any sample project on this environment, so I couldn't test we-retail site.

Noted. In that case see if the below debug route helps.

  • Inspect the Sources section of Developer tools for list of all CSS files loaded as part of it in the target instance Or
  • Select any specific project(out of al problematic project where issue exist) and install the same in lower environment or in your local and observe the behavior

This is due to grid.less file not registered in your clientlib folder.

Please add grid.less in ur css.txt of the base clientlib folder and check in your page view source if grid.less is getting injected or not.

@Ankur_Khare - grid.less is already loading and it is getting inject. Not sure why the resizing is happening and after the page refresh everything is gone with respect to the resizing.

@Ankur_Khare - PFB. @Import (once) "/libs/wcm/foundation/clientlibs/grid/grid_base.less"; /* maximum amount of grid cells to be provided */ @max_col: 12; /* default breakpoint */ .aem-Grid { .generate-grid(default, @max_col); } /* phone breakpoint */ @media (max-width: 650px) { .aem-Grid { .generate-grid(phone, @max_col); } } /* tablet breakpoint */ @media (min-width: 651px) and (max-width: 1200px) { .aem-Grid { .generate-grid(tablet, @max_col); } }

Hi @v1101 ,

 

I am experiencing the same issue on the desktop size emulator. All the values are stored correctly in the jcr but they are not being reflected/rendered correctly. Also, I tried to manually update the aem grid css classes in the html (viewing the page as published) but nothing gets updated.

 

Have you been able to solve it?

 

@Vijayalakshmi_S@Ankur_Khare  any help from your side? 

 

Thank you
