Slimselect: selecting second option after searching not working

I asked this question by gitHub, but I try it here as well maybe someone knows the issue.
I am using slim select plugin, when I try to select the second option after searching I get an error
see picture:
But when I click outside so that the drop down goes closed and start searching again then I can select many options without getting the error.
Here is the code snippet where slimselect is initialized:
function initDropDowns () {
$('[slimselect]').each(function (index) {
var id = $(this).attr("id");
var placeholder = $(this).data("placeholder");
var selectByGroup = true;
var compareDropDown = false;
var dataSelectByGroup = $(this).data("selectbygroup");
var dataCmpareDropdown = $(this).data("comparedropdown");
if (dataSelectByGroup) {
selectByGroup = dataSelectByGroup === "true";
}
if (dataCmpareDropdown) {
compareDropDown = dataCmpareDropdown === "true";
}
var that = this;
var select = new SlimSelect({
select: '#' + id,
placeholder: placeholder,
showSearch: true,
searchText: settings.texts.noSearchResults,
searchPlaceholder: settings.texts.searchPlaceholder,
searchingText: settings.texts.searchingText,
searchHighlight: true,
closeOnSelect: false,
showOptionTooltips: true,
selectByGroup: selectByGroup,
hideSelectedOption:true,
limit: 5,
beforeOnChange: function (info) {
if ($(that).data('singleselect') === true) {
dropDowns[that.id].set ([]);
}
},
onChange: slimSelectOnChange
});
dropDowns[id] = select;
});
}

How to change fancytree SelectMode on a button click event?

I am using the a tree view/tree grid plugin which is called fancytree (Here is the link)
I initially (when the page loads) set the selectMode to 2 which allows the users to select multiple options.
// Init
$("#Organizations .OrgTree").each(function () {
var $this = $(this);
var organizationUnitId = $this.data("orgid");
//var treeData = JSON.parse($("#treeData_" + organizationUnitId).val());
$this.fancytree({
extensions: ["persist"],
selectMode: 2,
persist: {
expandLazy: true
store: "auto" 'session': sessionStore
},
icons: false,
checkbox: true,
toggleEffect: null, //disable animations
source: window["treeData_" + organizationUnitId], // treeData
lazyLoad: function (event, data) {
var node = data.node;
data.result = {
// Some data
};
}
});
});
What I want to do is, when I click on a button, I want to change the selectMode and set it to 1 or 3.
I have tried to read through the documentation and found this as well
But I won't work. Here is some code:
//Bind click to search button
$("#changeSelectModeBtn").click(function () {
debugger;
$("#Organizations .OrgTree").fancytree("getTree").visit(function (node) {
node.setSelected(false);
});
$("#Organizations .OrgTree").fancytree({ selectMode: 3 });
var selectedKeys = [];
$("#Organizations .OrgTree").each(function () {
var $this = $(this);
var orgTree = $(this).fancytree("getTree");
var selectedParentNodes = orgTree.getSelectedNodes();
for (node in selectedParentNodes) {
selectedKeys.push(selectedParentNodes[node].key)
}
// Save orgtree in hidden fields
var organizationUnitId = $this.data("orgid");
var treeData = orgTree.toDict(true);
window["treeData_" + organizationUnitId] = treeData.children; //$("#treeData_" + organizationUnitId).val(JSON.stringify(treeData.children))
});
if (selectedKeys) {
$("#HiddenOrganizationUnitIds").val(selectedKeys.join(","));
}
})
Can someone please help me?
Thanks in advance!

All options can be set dynamically using the jQuery widget pattern.
For example, you can use
$("#tree").fancytree("option", "selectMode", 3);

Hide all instances of element except one currently being written / displayed

I have this notification system that works with the following jQuery / javascript and displays a notification when called.
What I am having some trouble doing and what I am trying to do is once a new notification is create to hide and remove / destroy any existing notifications.
I've tried something like this: $('.notification').not(this).hide().remove();, but that didn't work.
Here is the jQuery behind the notifications:
;(function($) {
$.notificationOptions = {
className: '',
click: function() {},
content: '',
duration: 5000,
fadeIn: 400,
fadeOut: 600,
limit: false,
queue: false,
slideUp: 200,
horizontal: 'right',
vertical: 'top',
afterShow: function(){},
afterClose: function(){}
};
var Notification = function(board, options) {
var that = this;
// build notification template
var htmlElement = $([
'<div class="notification ' + options.className + '" style="display:none">',
'<div class="close"></div>',
options.content,
'</div>'
].join(''));
// getter for template
this.getHtmlElement = function() {
return htmlElement;
};
// custom hide
this.hide = function() {
htmlElement.addClass('hiding');
htmlElement.animate({ opacity: .01 }, options.fadeOut, function() {
var queued = queue.shift();
if (queued) {
$.createNotification(queued);
}
});
htmlElement.slideUp(options.slideUp, function() {
$(this).remove();
options.afterClose();
});
};
// show in board
this.show = function() {
// append to board and show
htmlElement[options.vertical == 'top' ? 'appendTo' : 'prependTo'](board);
htmlElement.fadeIn(options.fadeIn, options.afterShow());
//$('.notification').css('marginLeft', -$('.notification').outerWidth()/2);
$('.notification-board.center').css('marginLeft', -($('.notification-board.center').width()/2));
$(window).on('resize', function(){
$('.notification-board.center').css('marginLeft', -($('.notification-board.center').width()/2));
});
};
// set custom click callback
htmlElement.on('click', function() {
options.click.apply(that);
});
// helper classes to avoid hide when hover
htmlElement.on('mouseenter', function() {
htmlElement.addClass('hover');
if (htmlElement.hasClass('hiding')) {
// recover
htmlElement.stop(true);
// reset slideUp, could not find a better way to achieve this
htmlElement.attr('style', 'opacity: ' + htmlElement.css('opacity'));
htmlElement.animate({ opacity: 1 }, options.fadeIn);
htmlElement.removeClass('hiding');
htmlElement.addClass('pending');
}
});
htmlElement.on('mouseleave', function() {
if (htmlElement.hasClass('pending')) {
// hide was pending
that.hide();
}
htmlElement.removeClass('hover');
});
// close button bind
htmlElement.children('.close').on('click', function() {
that.hide();
});
if (options.duration) {
// hide timer
setTimeout(function() {
if (htmlElement.hasClass('hover')) {
// hovering, do not hide now
htmlElement.addClass('pending');
} else {
that.hide();
}
}, options.duration);
}
return this;
};
var queue = [];
$.createNotification = function(options) {
options = $.extend({}, $.notificationOptions, options || {});
// get notification container (aka board)
var board = $('.notification-board.' + options.horizontal + '.' + options.vertical);
if (!board.length) {
board = $('<div class="notification-board ' + options.horizontal + ' ' + options.vertical + '" />');
board.appendTo('body');
}
if (options.limit && board.children('.notification:not(.hiding)').length >= options.limit) {
// limit reached
if (options.queue) {
queue.push(options);
}
return;
}
// create new notification and show
var notification = new Notification(board, options)
notification.show(board);
return notification;
};
})(jQuery);
and here is how the notifications are called / created:
$.createNotification({
horizontal:'center',
vertical:'top',
content:'No more cards at this time.',
duration:6000,
click:function(){
this.hide();
}
});

The code:
$('.notification').not(this).hide().remove();
will work just fine to remove all .notification DOM elements currently in the DOM except the current one IF this is the current notification DOM element. If that code isn't working, then it's likely because this isn't the desired notification DOM element that you want to keep. If this is an instance of your Notification class, then that's the wrong type of object. For that above code to work, this has to be the notification DOM object.
If you want to just remove all old notification DOM elements BEFORE you insert your new one, then you can just do this before your new one is in the DOM:
$('.notification').remove();
That will clear out the old ones before you insert your new one.
Since you don't have this line of code in your currently posted code, I can't tell where you were trying to use it so can't advise further on what might be wrong. Please describe further where in your code you were trying to use this.

ComboBox that shows a tree in the dropdown

I want to write a ComboBox which lets the user type in a query and at the same time lets him select a value from a tree. I have tried writing a tree-select but if I change the code to inherit from dijit.form.ComboBox instead of a dijit.form.Select, the code breaks.
Here is what I had tree for tree select:
dojo.declare('TreeSelect',dijit.form.Select,{
constructor: function(widgetArgs){
this.tree = widgetArgs.tree || new FC_Tree();
this.initTree = widgetArgs.initTree;
if(dojo.isFunction(this.initTree))
this.initTree();
},
postCreate: function(){
this.inherited(arguments);
this.option = {label: '', value: 'NoValue'};
this.tree.option = this.option;
this.addOption(this.option);
dojo.connect(this.tree,'onClick',this,'closeDropDown');
dojo.connect(this.tree,'itemSelected',this,'selectOption');
},
selectOption: function(opt){
this.option.label = opt.label || opt;
this.option.value = opt.value || opt;
this.option.id = opt.id || opt;
this.set('value',this.option);
},
_getMenuItemForOption: function (option){
return this.tree;
},
openDropDown: function(){
this.tree.refresh();
this.inherited(arguments);
},
clear: function(){
this.tree.clear();
this.tree.option.value = '';
this.tree.option.label = '';
this.tree.option.id = '';
this.set('value',this.tree.option);
},
initializeTree: function(treeData) {
// Init the tree only if needed
dojo.forEach(treeData, function(field) {
var store = this.tree.model.store;
store.newItem(field);
}, this);
},
setOpenCallback: function(callback){
this.tree.setOpenCallback(callback);
},
resetTree: function() {
var store = this.tree.model.store;
store.fetch( { query: { id: "*" },
onItem: function(item) {
store.deleteItem(item);
}
});
}
});
I had tried replacing the code for combobox like this:
dojo.declare('TreeSelect',dijit.form.ComboBox,{
Please help me rectify it.
Thanks in advance!
Adding the code for FC_Tree:
dojo.declare('FC_Tree',dijit.Tree,{

return store.getValue(item, "isDir");
};
// on folder click mark it unselectable
if(get("isDir"))
{
this.isExpanded = true;
this.isExpandable = true;
}
else
{ //In case the item has 'onClick' delegate execute it and assign the output to 'selItem'
var selItem = (item.onClick && item.onClick[0])? item.onClick[0](this.model.store,item.parentID[0]):item.id[0];
this.option.id = item.id;
this.option.value = item.value;
this.option.label = item.label;
this.itemSelected(this.option);
}
},
onOpen: function(item, node){
if(this.rootNode.item == item){
return this.inherited(arguments);

Possibly you will find inspiration / answer in this fiddle
The recursiveHunt and selectTreeNodeById functions are logic to seek out the path of an item by its id. Its quite excessive and you may find a better solution (dont know 100% what data your json is like)..
Basically, use FilteringSelect and reference the tree in this object. Also for Tree, reference the select.
Then for your tree, hook into load function (also called on refresh afaik) and in turn for the select, use onBlur to initate selecting treenode.
var combo = new dijit.form.FilteringSelect({
onBlur: function() {
// called when filter-select is 'left'
if (this.validate()) {
// only act if the value holds an actual item reference
var id = this.get("value");
var name = this.get("displayedValue");
this.tree.selectNode(id);
}
}
});
var tree = new dijit.Tree( { ....
onLoad: function() {
combostore.setData(this.model.store._arrayOfAllItems);
},
onClick: function(item) {
// uses 'this.combo', must be present
// also, we must have the same 'base store' for both combo and model
var _name = this.model.store.getValue(item, this.combo.searchAttr);
this.combo.set("item", item, false, _name);
},
selectNode: function(lookfor) {
selectTreeNodeById(this, lookfor);
},
combo: combo // <<<<<<
});
combo.tree = tree // <<<<<<
Make sure that the model has a rootId, and also that your select.searchAttr matches tree.model.labelAttr. See working sample on the fiddle

jQGrid Column Chooser Modal Overlay

Looking off this example, notice how clicking on the Search button brings up a modal form with a darkened overlay behind it. Now notice how clicking on the Column Chooser button brings up a modal form but no overlay behind it.
My question is: how do I get the dark overlay to appear behind my Column Chooser popup?

There are currently undocumented option of the columnChooser:
$(this).jqGrid('columnChooser', {modal: true});
The demo demonstrate this. One can set default parameters for the columnChooser with respect of $.jgrid.col too:
$.extend(true, $.jgrid.col, {
modal: true
});
Recently I posted the suggestion to extend a little functionality of the columnChooser, but only a part of the changes are current code of the jqGrid. Nevertheless in the new version will be possible to set much more jQuery UI Dialog options with respect of new dialog_opts option. For example the usage of the following will be possible
$(this).jqGrid('columnChooser', {
dialog_opts: {
modal: true,
minWidth: 470,
show: 'blind',
hide: 'explode'
}
});
To use full features which I suggested you can just overwrite the standard implementation of columnChooser. One can do this by including the following code
$.jgrid.extend({
columnChooser : function(opts) {
var self = this;
if($("#colchooser_"+$.jgrid.jqID(self[0].p.id)).length ) { return; }
var selector = $('<div id="colchooser_'+self[0].p.id+'" style="position:relative;overflow:hidden"><div><select multiple="multiple"></select></div></div>');
var select = $('select', selector);
function insert(perm,i,v) {
if(i>=0){
var a = perm.slice();
var b = a.splice(i,Math.max(perm.length-i,i));
if(i>perm.length) { i = perm.length; }
a[i] = v;
return a.concat(b);
}
}
opts = $.extend({
"width" : 420,
"height" : 240,
"classname" : null,
"done" : function(perm) { if (perm) { self.jqGrid("remapColumns", perm, true); } },

selector.data('dialog').uiDialog.resizable("option", "alsoResize",
resizeSel + ',' + resizeSel +'>div' + ',' + resizeSel + '>div>div.ui-multiselect');
}
});
In the case you can continue to use the original minimized version of jquery.jqGrid.min.js and the code which use can be just $(this).jqGrid('columnChooser');. Together with all default settings it will be like
$.extend(true, $.ui.multiselect, {
locale: {
addAll: 'Make all visible',
removeAll: 'Hidde All',
itemsCount: 'Avlialble Columns'
}
});
$.extend(true, $.jgrid.col, {
width: 450,
modal: true,
msel_opts: {dividerLocation: 0.5},
dialog_opts: {
minWidth: 470,
show: 'blind',
hide: 'explode'
}
});
$grid.jqGrid('navButtonAdd', '#pager', {
caption: "",
buttonicon: "ui-icon-calculator",
title: "Choose columns",
onClickButton: function () {
$(this).jqGrid('columnChooser');
}
});
The demo demonstrate the approach. The main advantage of the changes - the really resizable Column Chooser:
UPDATED: Free jqGrid fork of jqGrid, which I develop starting with the end of 2014, contains of cause the modified code of columnChooser.

I get the following error while trying the code on the mobile device.
Result of expression 'selector.data('dialog').uiDialog' [undefined] is not an object.
The error points to the following line of code.
selector.data('dialog').uiDialog.resizable("option", "alsoResize", resizeSel + ',' + resizeSel +'>div' + ',' + resizeSel + '>div>div.ui-multiselect');
When I inspect the code, I find that the data object does not have anything called uiDialog.

just been looking thru the code, try adding this line:
jqModal : true,
to this code:
$grid.jqGrid('navButtonAdd', '#pager', {
caption: "",
buttonicon: "ui-icon-calculator",
title: "Choose columns",
onClickButton: function () {
....
like this:
$grid.jqGrid('navButtonAdd', '#pager', {
caption: "",
buttonicon: "ui-icon-calculator",
title: "Choose columns",
jqModal : true,
onClickButton: function () {
....
