change printer-icon section in print popup

If you wondering how to change the layout in the print popup then here some information.

Let's say we have a printer icon in the eventslist-view


and when pressed it will be looking like this image


so how did i change the icon part?


did add this code in the default_events_table.php
did add this code in jem.css doing so will hide the div when a visitors views eventslist normally.

did add this code in print.css doing so will show the div when a visitor clicks at the print-icon.


i know it ain't perfect but it gives an idea.
and yes i'm hardcoding language strings at the moment and as i'm not using different languages it ain't a problem for me.

Hm... I don't understand the use-case.

On normal page you will have a button which opens the print preview popup.
In this popup a slightly different layout is shown with a completely different button to send this page to a printer.
So there is no need to hide any button because there should be only one of these two buttons present.

It should be useful to add a line "$this->print = $print;" in the view.html.php files where missing to make it easier within the template but then I would check this flag to decide how to construct the content.

well it's was more about hiding/showing a block.

basicly it's possible to show anything in the print.css (not only the printer icon). The code for the printer-icon in the output class is indeed looking for the print variable so guess i should have made a better example

Ok, then let's make a very little css lesson.

will completely hide the element with id whatever, also not taking any space for that as if it wouldn't exist.

instead will also hide the element with id whatever, but takes space as if the element would be shown.

In most cases "display: none" is the best choice but if things should be toggled dynamically, e.g. depending on user selections "show: hidden" could be useful to prevent jumping elements.
