Auto Scaling Image Annotation

Scalize is a jQuery plugin used for adding custom markers (hotspots) with custom popovers and animations to containers or images.
But now When I click one by one on pointer it show all one by one But I am trying to show only one so when click another pointer will close the other which already opened.
Here is my EXAMPLE
(function(jQuery) {
"use strict";
//----------------------------------------//
// Variable
//----------------------------------------//
var variable = {
width : 0,
height : 0,
selector : '.item-point',
styleSelector : 'circle',
animationSelector : 'pulse2',
animationPopoverIn : 'flipInY',
animationPopoverOut : 'flipOutY',
onInit : null,
getSelectorElement : null,
getValueRemove : null
}
//----------------------------------------//
// Scaling
//----------------------------------------//
var scaling = {
settings : null,
//----------------------------------------//
// Initialize
//----------------------------------------//
init: function(el, options){
this.settings = jQuery.extend(variable, options);
this.event(el);
scaling.layout(el);
jQuery(window).on('load', function(){
scaling.layout(el);
});
jQuery(el).find('.target').on('load', function(){
scaling.layout(el);
});
jQuery(window).on('resize', function(){

});
},

Add this to your initialisation:
getSelectorElement: function(el) {
$('.item-point.active').not($(el)[0]).find('.toggle').click();
}
This hooks into the getSelectorElement method in the Scalize plugin and triggers a click on any active (open) elements that don't match the most recently clicked item.
Add it like so:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.scalize').scalize({
styleSelector: 'circle',
animationPopoverIn: 'fadeIn',
animationPopoverOut: 'fadeOut',
animationSelector: 'pulse2',
getSelectorElement: function(el) {
$('.item-point.active').not($(el)[0]).find('.toggle').click();
}
});
});
Note, because this is hooking into existing methods in the plugin it's a little safer (no unpredictable side effects, plus you get the intended transition out on the disappearing elements). Fiddle.

I've modified your jsFiddle to work.
TL;DR: Anytime an point is clicked, if there are other active siblings, loop over them and hide their popups.
It isn't a pretty way of doing it but it is working in the Fiddle.
$('.scalize').on('click', '.item-point', (function() {
$(this).siblings('.item-point.active').each(function() {
var popover = $(this).data('popover');
$(popover).removeClass('fadeIn').css({
'display': 'none'
});
$(this).removeClass('active');
});
}));

Javascript scrolling on XY axis

I have a jsfiddle here using jquery 1.8.3 and scrollTo to scoll to an element #en on an XY axis
https://jsfiddle.net/80kxdsxe/
var $scrollTo = $.scrollTo = function(target, duration, settings) {
return $(window).scrollTo(target, duration, settings);
};
$scrollTo.defaults = {
axis:'xy',
duration: 0,
limit:true
};
The jsfiddle that i need to work is using pure js but it only scrolls to the element #en on either the X or Y axis and i need it to scroll using XY
https://jsfiddle.net/43s8wpd7/
/* Note: In order to be subjected to chaining and animation options, scroll's tweening is routed through Velocity as if it were a standard CSS property animation. */
if (action === "scroll") {
/* The scroll action uniquely takes an optional "offset" option -- specified in pixels -- that offsets the targeted scroll position. */
var scrollDirection = (/^x$/i.test(opts.axis) ? "Left" : "Top"),
scrollOffset = parseFloat(opts.offset) || 0,
scrollPositionCurrent,
scrollPositionCurrentAlternate,
scrollPositionEnd;
if (opts.container) {
if (Type.isWrapped(opts.container) || Type.isNode(opts.container)) {
opts.container = opts.container[0] || opts.container;
scrollPositionCurrent = opts.container["scroll" + scrollDirection];
scrollPositionEnd = (scrollPositionCurrent + $(element).position()[scrollDirection.toLowerCase()]) + scrollOffset; /* GET */
} else {
opts.container = null;
}
} else {
scrollPositionCurrent = Velocity.State.scrollAnchor[Velocity.State["scrollProperty" + scrollDirection]];
scrollPositionCurrentAlternate = Velocity.State.scrollAnchor[Velocity.State["scrollProperty" + (scrollDirection === "Left" ? "Top" : "Left")]]; /* GET */
scrollPositionEnd = $(element).offset()[scrollDirection.toLowerCase()] + scrollOffset; /* GET */
}
/* Since there's only one format that scroll's associated tweensContainer can take, we create it manually. */
tweensContainer = {
scroll: {
rootPropertyValue: false,
startValue: scrollPositionCurrent,
currentValue: scrollPositionCurrent,
endValue: scrollPositionEnd,
unitType: "",
easing: opts.easing,
scrollData: {
container: opts.container,
direction: scrollDirection,
alternateValue: scrollPositionCurrentAlternate
}
},
element: element
};
if (Velocity.debug) console.log("tweensContainer (scroll): ", tweensContainer.scroll, element);
Can anyone help me fix the second NON-jquery fiddle to allow the scroll to be on the XY axis?
Thanks.

Displaying google maps within nested divs (splitter)

I've read many answers to the issue of map not being displayed when put inside nested divs, i tried everything but still could not get it working.
I need to have a splitter between directions panel and the actual map, and i am using the code i've found for splitter, combined with the map code. But map is never displayed, only grey background.
I have to admit i am illiterate with HTML design, CSS and JavaScript. Please if anyone could easily see the issue, i would be very grateful. Thank you.

Why can't I draw elements to the stage?

Fiddle - http://liveweave.com/JS9EBN
This is a starter template for web design applications. (well almost except for the drawing problem)
Elements are drawn to the stage like so.
// Handles Drawable Elements
$("#canvas").on('mousedown touchstart', function(e) {
if(drawable) {
drawing = true;
mS.x = e.pageX;
mS.y = e.pageY;
dBox = $("<" + $('.draw-elements input[type=radio]:checked').val() + " class='box' />")
.html("Certains textes");
$(this).append(dBox);
// Do not select text when drawing
return false;
}
});
$(document).on('mousemove touchmove', function(e) {
if(drawing && drawable){
var mPos = {x:e.pageX, y:e.pageY};
var css = {};
css.position = 'absolute';
css.left = (mPos.x > mS.x) ? mS.x : mPos.x;
css.top = (mPos.y > mS.y) ? mS.y : mPos.y;
css.width = Math.abs(mPos.x - mS.x);
css.height = Math.abs(mPos.y - mS.y);
css.border = '1px dotted rgb(0, 34, 102)';
dBox.css(css);
// Do not select text when drawing
return false;
}
}).on('mouseup touchend', function(e) {
drawing = false;
});
As long as my select tool is not called I can draw elements without a problem, but when it is called and I come back to draw a div I can no longer draw elements to my stage.
After some tinkering I noticed the problem resides with my drag function for each element that's selected.
var HandleSelectedElement = function() {
if ($(".select-tool.activetool").is(":visible")) {
if(elmstyle) {
$('#canvas').children().drag("start",function( ev, dd ){
dd.attrc = $( ev.target ).prop("className");
dd.attrd = $( ev.target ).prop("id");
dd.width = $( this ).width();
dd.height = $( this ).height();
})
.drag(function( ev, dd ){
var props = {};
if ( dd.attrc.indexOf("E") > -1 ){
props.width = Math.max( 32, dd.width + dd.deltaX );
}
if ( dd.attrc.indexOf("S") > -1 ){
props.height = Math.max( 32, dd.height + dd.deltaY );
}
if ( dd.attrc.indexOf("W") > -1 ){
props.width = Math.max( 32, dd.width - dd.deltaX );
props.left = dd.originalX + dd.width - props.width;
}
if ( dd.attrc.indexOf("N") > -1 ){
props.height = Math.max( 32, dd.height - dd.deltaY );
props.top = dd.originalY + dd.height - props.height;
}
if ( dd.attrd.indexOf("stylethis") > -1 ){
props.top = dd.offsetY;
props.left = dd.offsetX;
}
$('#stylethis').css( props );
}, {relative:true});
}
};
I don't understand what's wrong.

I couldn't find out how to solve the initial problem. So I decided to do a work around.
Here's the fiddle: http://liveweave.com/g2aKlD
I decided to refresh the canvas each time a tool is clicked. I take the canvas's html and set that as a textarea's value. I then set the textarea's value as the canvas's html.
$("#code").val($("#canvas").html());
$("#canvas").html($("#code").val());
This way whatever called the initial bug is removed completely. However last time I did this all spaces where turned into a otherwise known as a non-breakable space (I've also seen this also add unnecessary line breaks and paragraphs when not needed)
I still don't understand why my draw function did not work when drag was turned off.
I really hate having to do this (being refreshing the canvas) because the more elements that are in there and the more refreshing is done, the more ram it uses which makes the browser work the cpu that much harder.
I hope someone can come across a better solution.

create fn function with callback

I did the following little plugIn (to add to query.transit by Rico St Cruz):
$.fn.translateLeft = function( left, duration, easing, callback ) {
var $this = $(this);
var currentLeftPx = parseInt( $this.css('left') );
var parentWidth = $this.parent().width();
// final left layout destination in px
var finalLeftPx = parentWidth/100 * left;
// actual distances to final left layout destination in px
var distanceLeftPx = currentLeftPx - finalLeftPx;
$this.transition( { x: -distanceLeftPx }, duration, easing, function() {
$this.stop(true).css( { left: left +'%', x: 0 } );
callback();
} );
}
I used it (without the callback I tried to implement it worked well so far) so:
$("#someElement").translateLeft( 10.5, 300, 'easeOutSine', function() {
// do something else
} );
This helps to make smooth x translate instead of left, yet keeps the possibility to set % values that refer to the parent (which is not possible with x alone which refers alway to the element). This only for explanation.
And as I said it works very good, yet my inserted callback does not.
Did I do something wrong here semantically?
Thanks for advice!
Garavani
EDIT:
Thanks so far for your comments that made me think. Actually even in my (beginner) fn code the callback actually works if I put for example alert( "Callback" ) in there instead of the other code. So it seems it is not possible to mix up my plugIn with any kind of code. To complete my question here is the whole code involved even if I am quite aware that it is quite complicated and will make you run out of nerves.:
This is the function IN which I liked to use my plugIn:
function switchMenuItem( id ) {
var $menuItem = $("#"+ id );
var $menu = $menuItem.parent();
var $menuImg = $menu.children(); //all siblings including selected element by id
var $prev = $menuItem.prev();
// calculate animation values
var index = $menuImg.index( $menuItem );
var ww = $(window).width();
var cssLeftPx = parseInt( $menuItem.css('left') );
var cssLeftPercent = 100 * cssLeftPx/ww;
if ( index == 1 ) { var dur = ww/2.4; };
if ( index == 2 ) { var dur = ww/1.5; };
$menuItem .stop(true)
.animate( { left: '10.5%' }, dur, 'easeOutSine', function() {
$(this) .prependTo($menu );
} );
$menuImg .first()
.stop(true)
.animate( { left: cssLeftPercent+'%' }, dur, 'easeOutSine', function() {
$(this) .insertAfter( $prev );
$menuItem.siblings()
.animate( { opacity: 1 }, 150, 'linear' )
.css( { cursor: 'pointer' } );
switchComplete = true;
subReady = true;
} );
…
}
and I would love to get rid of the query animate and substitute it with a smooth x translate with the help of Rico St Cruz transit plugIn (in the way I did successfully before with my kind of plugIn:
$.fn.translateLeft = function( left, duration, easing, callback ) {
var $this = $(this);
var currentLeftPx = parseInt( $this.css('left') );
var parentWidth = $this.parent().width();
// final left layout destination in px
var finalLeftPx = parentWidth/100 * left;
// actual distances to final left layout destination in px
var distanceLeftPx = currentLeftPx - finalLeftPx;
$this.transition( { x: -distanceLeftPx }, duration, easing, function() {
$this.stop(true).css( { left: left +'%', x: 0 } );
callback();
} );
}
So instead of „animate“ I want to use „translate Left“ which uses a smooth x translate and then return at the end a „cleaned up“ css position so that it is ready for other window resizing etc.
Did I explain myself? Any advice is appreciated a lot. Thank you in advance!
