@Birthe, I would like to move the button to the right. But there are two
problems:
1. When the button is to the right, the dropdown moves offscreen to the
right, and I don't know how to position it correctly. I did a few web
searches and also mentioned that I would love for someone to show me how to
do that, but no luck yet.
I tried the following class, including adjustments to the position and the
left properties, and nothing
.drop-down-right {
min-width: 380px; border: 1px solid #bbb; background-color: #ffffff;
padding: 7px; margin: 5px; white-space: nowrap; text-shadow: none;
line-height: 1.4;
position: absolute; z-index: 80; top: 20px; left: 500px; }
2. The dropdowns will cover the sidebar, so users won't be able to see
changes there until they close the dropdown. That is not good. So I think
the best solution would be to default have the button to the left, but have
a way for users to apply $:/tags/TopRightBar and have the "right side
dropdown" stylesheet automatically kick in.
3. Again, this is all beyond my current knowledge. Others are developers
with extensive knowledge that can just pop stuff out. I am a non-developer
person who does this as a hobby, fights an uphill battle, and needs a lot
of help to make it happen. I do what I can, and don't have a lot of time to
learn to do what I can't. My best learning is from looking at snippets
others have created, then tweaking them. But I can at least tell when
something will be helpful to others and see in my mind what it needs to
look like and function like, even if I can't make it happen on my own.
