Style Dropdown Width

Hi guys,

Anyone know how to change the width of the Styles Dropdown?

The styles I've added included margins that cause the names of the styles to be only partially visable or not at all.

I've been searching to find an answer and have seen that someone's asked on here previously in the past and it's gone unanswered.

My clients starting to whinge and would really appreciate any ideas.

TIA

Re: Style Dropdown With

You can use a different stylesheet for the toolbar combos, so that margin, padding or anything special isn't included there. Or you can add some extra rules in your stylesheet to remove the margin... when the element is being shown inside of one combo (use Firebug or other Developer tool to find out the parent class of the container)

Re: Style Dropdown Width

Thanks alfonsoml,

It gave me some ideas to try but they didn't work out.

I'm using the office 2003 skin, I've found through Firebug that the dropdowns are contained within a class called SC_Panel and each item within is contained in a class called SC_Item but when I've tried to place css within the css file for office 2003 it doesn't have any effect.

So I've pretty much ran out of ideas again.

Styles Dropdown Width

Hi :)

I also came to this thread hoping that someone had already found where this setting is. After going through the JS that builds it up, I still came up short :/.

Finally I found it in the CSS file for the SKIN.

Within the skins folder, open the editor.css file and look for the class ".cke_combopanel". Here you can change the width as it suites you.

Kind regards,
Michael

Styles Dropdown Width

Style dropdown menus may be useful as they decrease the quantity of the page taken up by links and yet allow the user to jump anywhere with one click.
