Responsive background

Responsive background

I'm having trouble getting the background on a 2D view to change size depending on screen orientation.

I have a grid layout with 3 rows, with the background applied to the 2nd row.

 

.row2 {
height: 80%;
background-color:#2e2d2c;
background-image: url(#{$resources}/Default/Background.jpg) !important;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;

}

 

I think I need to include some flexbox and/or some positioning values to the rows, but not too sure.

Hi @micah ,

I have no experience hwo to manage it by the css , style defintion. May be here someone could help.

But I think there is another way to do this :

- you can define for the different orientation differet classes e.g.  horizontalRow2 and verticalRow24

-and use an javaScript event to set the class property of a widget depending on the orientiaotn

You can check the post: "Getting Orientation of Mobile Device via Javascript"

some code like this:

 

angular.element(document).ready(function() {
  angular.element(window).on('resize', function(evt) {
   console.log("resized window evnt : at Time ::"+$scope.getTime());
   console.warn(evt);
    var message = ''
      var win = evt.path[0];
      if(win.innerWidth > win.innerHeight){
          // LANDSCAPE -> do something here call your landscapeFunc()
          message = "current orientation is Landscape!"
         $scope.app.params['myClass']='row2'
        $scope.$applyAsync();
      }
      else {
           // LANDSCAPE -> do something here your PortraitFunc()
          message = "current orientation is Portrait!"     
        $scope.app.params['myClass']='row3'
        $scope.$applyAsync();
          }
     twx.app.fn.addSnackbarMessage(message,"twLogo");
    
    });
})

 

using some css style defintion like this:

 

.row2 {
height: 80%;
background-color:#2e2d2c;
background-image: url(#{$resources}/Default/vu_flag.svg) !important;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;

}
.row3 {
height: 50%;
background-color:#2e2222;
background-image: url(#{$resources}/Default/vu_flame.svg) !important;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;

}

 

 

The code will set dynamically an application parameter e.g. "myClass" which has a binding to the class property of a button.(this css definition has here no real sense but should only demonstrate the functionality)
