Queue buttons - member height

niccyb

Hi,

I have a problem with queue buttons...

I have a whole load of queues as follows:

The problem is that as soon as somebody is added to a queue, this happens:

So, the question is, what's the best way around this?

Most queues will have either one or no members and it occurs to me that the easiest way around this is to alter the default size of the blue cell - I can control the height of this cell by changing the 'line-height' parameter of the 'aentry' section in operator.css. However, this only takes effect when there are members logged into a queue. When there aren't, the line height falls back to a default value.

Ideas please?

Also, is there any way of changing the word 'QUEUES' in the above to something else?


Many thanks in advance,

Nick.

The QUEUES is on a language file (lang_en.js). If you do not mind having queue member displayed, you can set the aentry class to display:none and you should be fine. You can also update to FOP 2.20 where there is another way of representing queue buttons that is always "fixed", but displays less information.

Hi,

I'm running 2.20, so the second method may be the best - please could you let me know where to look (manuals, code etc.?) to work out how this method works?

Many thanks,

Nick.

In FOP 2.20 you can set your own preferences (the user must have the "preferences" permission set), it shows an extra icon in the top right where you can open them up. One of the options is the queue display type, the summary version will display it as I said. You can also click on the minus sign at the upper right corner of a queue button to change display types..

Best regards,
