Personally, I find the campaign navigation area much more helpful than the right sidebar. Does anyone know any of: 1) where it disappears to so I can keep using it? 2) how to manually force it to jump to the bottom rather than disappearing? 3) an alternate way to switch to different areas when it's gone?

I have used google up and down and tried different HTML codes within the text box, have different CSS codes in the Settings, and it remains the same dark gray color.

https://monstrous-compendium.obsidianportal.com/]]> https://forum.obsidianportal.com/discussion/3912/css-not-selector Sat, 28 Feb 2015 03:32:55 +0000 3912@/discussions
/* LOOK PUSHED ON CLICK */
a:not(.corner-add-button):active {
position:relative;
top:1px;
}

What does this bit of CSS actually do? Well, it applies an effect to all anchors (links) that when they are clicked on they will push down 1px from the top to make it look like they have been depressed. Doing this, however, without adding the "not" selector causes the add buttons that are a "+" will actually bounce off to the side and not load the link properly if the user happens to click off to the edge of the actual symbol itself (which is easy and common to do). So, by adding in the :not(.corner-add-button) I have stated that any instance of an anchor with that class applied to it (which all of those buttons do) will not do what I am putting in for the effect. The end result is links on my site appearing like they depress when clicked, but on those buttons they just sit stationary and no longer cause the glaring issues for end users.

Of course this could be extrapolated in a number of creative ways while working on your Campaign pages, but it is usually a feature that people do not stumble into with CSS. So, have some fun with that and see what kind of enhanced results you can cobble together on your pages.

My idea is perhaps collapsing the lists, so they are only displayed when mouse over ("hidden section test":https://morwindl.obsidianportal.com/wikis/test).

All in all though, everything still feels.... unnatural and a bit tedious, any ideas?

Thanks for your thoughts,

Secondly, one of the items I use on the Front Page does not respond the way I was initially hoping it would. The Detail Boxes that hold the Game Details and Considerations for Players. I don't mind the formatting style used on the legal notice at the bottom of the page, but those other boxes do not feel like they should be designed in that manner. Just can't personally think of a reasonable alternative.

So, any suggestions that the community might have about this would be most appreciated.

So TWO questions. First, has someone already composed a list of workable functions on Obsidian Portal. That would be a great resource.

Second, does someone have a workable alternative to my unworkable solution? This a clickable link, that would allow for a pop-up textbox, much like an Alert to pop up providing hidden text, that is workable on a touchscreen device (hence the need to be a clickable link, rather than a rollover).

text-align: center;
width: 100%;
margin: 0px;
line-height: 30px;
}

/* END XP BAR */

*HTML:*

@Current XP / Level XP@

You just adjust the inline width % to fill in a percentage of the bar as the players gain XP. If you want you can also give the bar rounded ends by adding the following.

*CSS:*

/* ROUNDED CORNERS */
.round {
-moz-border-radius:10px;
-webkit-border-radius:10px;
border-radius:10px;
-khtml-border-radius:10px
}

*Modified HTML:*

@Current XP / Level XP@

Again you would still just modify the inline width on the div. Obviously on both you would replace the Current XP with how much XP the character has and Level XP with the amount needed to get to the next level. Other than XP this could have some other applications on pages as well, so feel free to get creative with it. Additionally you can play with some of the CSS on this to do some styling of the bar itself, I have it commented fairly well so you can get an idea of what is going on. If you want to see the bar in action take a look at one of the PC pages on my Campaign as I have replaced my old image based bar with this now. Being responsive you can adjust the width of your browser and the bar will adjust on the fly with it.

Old time user returning to the website. I used to be able to "right-click" on my world map from my campaign and download the original image. However, with the redesign, it doesn't look like this is possible anymore. Is there any way for me to recover the original image? It would save me a lot of trouble, considering I've probably migrated to at least two different computers since I uploaded the file.

My current pathfinder campaign "Devils and Dilettantes":https://devils-and-dilettantes.obsidianportal.com/ has pentagram cursors that change to a different pentagram when it hovers over a link.

a:hover {cursor: url(http://www.rw-designer.com/cursor-extern.php?id=62168),pointer;}
.campaign-public-layout, .campaign-dashboard-layout {cursor: url(http://www.rw-designer.com/cursor-extern.php?id=62172),auto;}


My work in progress campaign "Deus Ex Machina":https://deusex.obsidianportal.com/ uses more futuristic looking cursors changing when hovering over links (well really any 'a' tag)

a:hover {cursor: url(http://www.rw-designer.com/cursor-extern.php?id=45717),pointer;}

Not all browsers support all filetypes of custom cursors. Firefox dropped support for .ani cursors, and chrome does not support it either. I've found .cur seems to have the widest support (only opera doesn't support it) followed by .gif (IE and opera don't support gif as cursors).
