Decrease the height of Richtext in a multifield of component's dialog.

[adi411]

Hi All,

I have a requirement to decrease the height of the Richtext field which is present in the multifield of the component's dialog.

The issue I am facing is that :

When the first time I 'Add' / enable the multifield in the component's dialog, I am not able to achieve the decreased size of the Richtext. However, when I author few things in the multifield and save the dialog and re-open it, then I am able to achieve the decreased size.

I have used the below piece of Jquery to achieve the decrease height size.

$(document).on("dialog-layouttoggle-floating", ".cq-Dialog",function(e) {

   var $ctaUrlDynamicAttrDiv = $(e.target).find(".ctaUrlDynamicAttributesContainer").find(".cq-RichText-editable");

   $ctaUrlDynamicAttrDiv.css("height", "7.2rem");

});

Also, few inputs that might help 
1. Since it is a multifield in the dialogs, the fields would be saved as --

abc/xyz/item0/fieldname, 

abc/xyz/item1/fieldname

2. The multifield about which I am referring, appears or gets presented on the dialog, when the author selects an option from another dropdown field present in the dialog. Please find below screenshots in order

Dropdown field

Pic.1 - Drop Down field

Pic2 Selecting 'Call to Action' options from Drop Down field

Pic 3- Call to Action multifield being enabled

Pic 4- Multifield being open, and the RTE field marked in green, is the field whose size I need to decrease when we are opening/accessing  this field for the first time

Hi @adi411 ,
I cam across this for a custom dialog.

Can you try to update the jquery function when the dropdown changes or when multifield is added. instead only for "dialog-layouttoggle-floating"
You might need to add an event listener for this 3 action.
1- dialog ready [dialog-ready]
2- Dialog layout changes [dialog-layouttoggle-floating]
3- Dropdown option Changes

maybe something like

$(document).on("dialog-ready", ".cq-Dialog", function(e) {
    //adjust height here or make a common function if you're height will be same
});

$(document).on("dialog-layouttoggle-floating", ".cq-Dialog", function(e) {
    var $ctaUrlDynamicAttrDiv = $(e.target).find(".ctaUrlDynamicAttributesContainer").find(".cq-RichText-editable");
    $ctaUrlDynamicAttrDiv.css("height", "7.2rem");
});

$(document).on("change", ".cq-Dialog .coral3-Select", function(e) {
    //adjust height here or make a common function if you're height will be same
});

Let me give it a try, and I will update.

Hi @kautuk_sahni  @tushaar_srivastava  - I tried a different approach
which was basically setting a timer and then adjusting the height, the idea was to load the richtextfield first and then execute the function to decrease the height

Below is the code I used to achieve the functionality

   var $ctaUrlDynamicAttrDiv = $(e.target).find(".ctaUrlDynamicAttributesContainer.cq-RichText-editable");

   $ctaUrlDynamicAttrDiv.css("height", "7.2rem");

    setTimeout(adjustHeight,500);

    $(".coral3-Button:contains('Add')").on("click", function(e) {

    setTimeout(adjustHeight,500);

});

});

 function adjustHeight(){

         if($('.cq-Dialog').attr('fullscreen') != undefined){

       $(".ctaUrlDynamicAttributesContainer").find(".cq-RichText-editable").css("height", "20rem");

        }

        else{

       $(".ctaUrlDynamicAttributesContainer").find(".cq-RichText-editable").css("height", "7.2rem");

        }

        }

Easy way is to add property "wrapperClass" to your RTE field in dialog and value can be a custom class name like for example "multi-rte".

Write a css rule using this custom class (here "multi-rte") and load that client lib in extraClientlibs of the dialog.

CSS:

.multi-rte {

    height: 200px; // based on your requirement

}

I implemented it similar way , to add more in it , adding wrapper class is too using property class="multi-rte" in a RTE field in dialog.

Its benifit is its will be specific change to that particular component itself , instead of genric RTE change.
