Hi all and Tobias! Second solution - div displayArea scrollable, Tobias: Unfortunately I already had this (working) configuration you described. But this will give problems with "ensureVisible" or something as you pointed out. For the time being it's not usable.
I investigated the first solution again - make menus stay fixed: The problem was in using MPTWTrimTheme. By switching to the normal MPTWTheme, topMenu and mainMenu were separated again and I could set it to be "fixed" with bottom = 0. Take a look at this screenshot: [1] http://www.taffson.net/data/myTW_next.jpg It's fabulous! After that, I had to fix the YourSearch Plugin, because when popping up it alwas scrolled the tiddlerDisplay to an absolute value. Code changes: * var _ee=_ec (instead of) _eb+_ec * _dd.style.bottom=_ee (instead of) .top * (comment out) scrollTo * position: fixed (instead of) "position: absolute" bei YourSearchResult Stylesheet So now the YourSearchResults pop up nicely over my floating topMenu, both at the bottom and always accessible. On the left of the screenshot you can see the sidebar which scrolls seperately, but only if too long. The whole thing, with some more things, is highly accessible and super smooth to use for me now. Thx all for participating, Alex [1] Screenshot of my TW with SearchResult popping up and the various "quick access" menues: http://www.taffson.net/data/myTW_next.jpg On 19 Feb., 16:30, Tobias Beer <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi again Alex, > > I believe your problem lies in your basic design idea.
