Disable click outside of bootstrap modal area only for a few second [duplicate]

Can I change backdrop to 'static' while my modal is open?
I have modal with form submit button. When I click this button I show loading spinner on my modal and that is the moment when I want to change backdrop to static
I tried $('#myModal').modal({backdrop: 'static', keyboard: false}), but I can still close my modal by clicking the backdrop or using escape button.
Second step should be changing backdrop back to true, but I didn't try this yet, because first I need to set backdrop to static.
I could set backdrop to static on modal show, but I want to avoid this and change it after submit.
Any ideas?

Ok I solved this. Maybe it is not the best solution, but it is working for my special case.
I added $('#myModal').off('click'); just after I show loading spinner on submit. This prevents from closing modal with mouse click.
There was a problem with disabling escape button, because browsers stops page loading when user press this button. So I decided to hide the spinner to unlock the form with this code:
$(document).on('keydown',function(e) {
if (e.keyCode == 27) {
$('#myLoadingSpinner').hide();
}
});
Edit:
I found another solution for backdrop:
$('#myModal').data('bs.modal').options.backdrop = 'static';
I tried this also for keyboard = false, but it doesn't work.

I had a modal that could be opened 2 different ways. When the user opened it one way, I wanted them to be able to close the modal. When they opened it the other way I didn't want them to be able to close it.
I found this question and used the solution from the original poster. I also tried adding keyboard which now works:
$('#myModal').data('bs.modal').options.backdrop = 'static';
$('#myModal').data('bs.modal').options.keyboard = false;

I had a different JavaScript object returned and thus the following solution:
$myModal.data("bs.modal")._config.backdrop = value;

The simplest method I've come up with is attaching to the hide.bs.modal event and calling preventDefault(). This doesn't technically set the backdrop to static, but it achieves the same effect in a toggleable manner.
let $myModal = $('#myModal');
function preventHide(e) {
e.preventDefault();
}
// if you have buttons that are allowed to close the modal
$myModal.find('[data-dismiss="modal"]').click(() =>
$myModal.off('hide.bs.modal', preventHide));
function disableModalHide() {
$myModal.on('hide.bs.modal', preventHide);
}
function enableModalHide() {
$myModal.off('hide.bs.modal', preventHide);
}
(Disclaimer, I didn't test making buttons allowed to hide the modal, as that wasn't my scenario. If it doesn't work, just call .modal('hide') from the click() callback.)

You can disallow closing of a modal when clicking outside of it, as well as on esc button. For example, if your modal ID is signUp:
jQuery('#signUp').on('shown.bs.modal', function() {
jQuery(this).data('bs.modal').options.backdrop = 'static';
jQuery(this).data('bs.modal').options.keyboard = false;
});

I found, that in Bootstrap 5 this is slightly different:
modal = new bootstrap.Modal($('.modal'));
modal._config.backdrop = 'static'; // or true

Prevent materializecss dropdown to close when clicking inside it

I am using Materialize.css for current project, and I have dropdown with some input forms inside it.
Dropdown has option to close by:
clicking outside of .dropdown-content
clicking inside of .dropdown-content
clicking on .dropdown-button
What I need is to not close when clicking inside of it, because i need to be able to fill in input forms and other actions.
Here is simple example

Quick solution would be to stopPropagation on click on content wrapper.
$('.dropdown-button + .dropdown-content').on('click', function(event) {
event.stopPropagation();
});
I would avoid using 'dropdown' for this particular use-case.
But if you want to stick to it just apply the snippet above.

You can use for example:
$('#first_name').click(function (event) {
event.stopPropagation();
//Do whatever you want
});
to avoid the event generated by the input first_name from propagating. The dropdown will not detect it so it will not be closed.

use this "closeOnClick : false" on dropdown initializing
$(".dropdown-trigger").dropdown({
closeOnClick : false
});

SAPUI5 Panel collapse event

This SAPUI5 application that I am developing uses a Panel control that has some buttons on it. Now I have to hide those buttons whenever a user collapses the panel and show them back upon expanding. I tried using the getCollapsed() method but to no effect. What I am basically looking for is a collapse event for the panel which is not available by default.
Any helping hand out there?
Thanks.

Hmmm, seems like there are no event handlers for the Panel control indeed...
As a workaround, you could add your own expand/collapse toggle button in the panel tray, and upon clicking that button you could grab the getCollapsed() state and show/hide your other buttons accordingly

You could use the sap.m.Panel https://openui5.hana.ondemand.com/docs/api/symbols/sap.m.Panel.html#event:expand
which has an expanded property and you can just use
setExpanded(true) ;
to expand the panel and let the control retain its state without you having to track it.
I am sure this has all changed since you asked the question and this answer is related to 1.24.2

Perhaps the only solution here is to replace the default collapse icon with a button of your own and attach the press event to it. Like:
1. Declare a `Panel` with `showCollapseIcon` set to false.
var oPanel = new sap.ui.commons.Panel({
showCollapseIcon: false
});
2. Add your own button. I prefer a `lite` button.
var oCollapseButton = new sap.ui.commons.Button({
icon: '<your icon>',
lite: true,
press: function (e) {
if (!oPanel.getCollapsed()) {
//If not collapsed
oPanel.setCollapsed(true);
//Code to hide panel buttons
//(and toggle collapse button image if needed) after this
} else {
//If already collapsed
oPanel.setCollapsed(false);
//Code to show panel buttons
//(and toggle collapse button image if needed) after this
}
}
});
oPanel.addButton(oCollapseButton);
P.S: You might also want to add some styling and alignment to your custom collapse button. For that, you can add a CSS3 class to your button before adding it to the panel like:
oCollapseButton.addStyleClass('<your class>');

Toggle select2 from different element

We have a select2 dropdown in a row (just a div) and we need to be able to click that entire row to trigger the dropdown. I have no problem showing it, but trying to hide it has become a problem, and I'm wondering if my logic is flawed somewhere. select2 AFAIK doesn't have a toggle method on the version we're on, so I have to manually use it's open and close methods. This is what I tried.
$('[data-variable-type=select]').on('click', function(e){
e.stopPropagation();
var _dropdown = $(this).find('div.interface_dropdown');
if( _dropdown.hasClass('select2-dropdown-open') ) {
$(this).find('select.interface_dropdown').select2('close');
}
else {
$(this).find('select.interface_dropdown').select2('open');
}
});
This causes it to open properly, but when you click to close it, it closes on mousedown but reappears on mouseup.
Is there someway I can get it toggling properly?

Will you post relevant HTML? It's hard to understand what you're doing without seeing content.
$('[data-variable-type=select]').on('click', function(e){
e.stopPropagation();
var _dropdown = $(this).find('div.interface_dropdown');
if( _dropdown.hasClass('select2-dropdown-open') ) {
_dropdown.removeClass('select2-dropdown-open');
_dropdown.select2('close');
} else {
_dropdown.select2('open');
_dropdown.addClass('select2-dropdown-open');
}
});
It looks like you forgot to add/removethat class, maybe this will work better? Again, I'm kind of feeling around in the dark here without seeing your content.

if( _dropdown.hasClass('select2-dropdown-open') ) {
$(this).find('select.interface_dropdown').select2('close');
}
in later versions of select2 (3.3+ iirc) this will never get triggered because when opened select2 creates a transparent mask over the entire browser and listens to click events. when the mask is clicked currently opened select2 is closed. this was the only reliable way to close a select2 when the user is ready to do something else.

The proper way is:
$('select').data('select2').toggleDropdown()

Repurposing Jeditable jQuery plugin to use buttons instead of on-text click?

I'm trying to slightly repurpose the functionality of the Jeditable plugin to be controlled with buttons instead of clicking on the text. I've got a stripped-down version of the section I'm working on here.
Right now I'm triggering the text click event with my Edit button, hiding my Edit button once it's clicked, then making it reappear after the submit button is clicked. Here's my jQuery for the button click:
$('.jeditable-activate').click(function() {
$(this).prev().click();
$(this).addClass('hidden');
});
And here are the parameters I'm passing to the Jeditible function:
onedit : function() {
$(this).siblings('.jeditable-activate').addClass('hidden');
},
onsubmit : function() {
$(".jeditable-activate.hidden").removeClass('hidden');
}
I'd like to disable the default functionality of clicking on the text to edit, but I can't figure out a way to do this without breaking the functionality of my Edit button.

You probably have found a way to do it since February but it might help someone else. I did the same using a custom jQuery event like that:
$('.edit').editable('http://www.example.com/save.php', {
id : 'elementid',
name : 'newvalue',
[...]
event : 'whateverEvent'
});
$('.jeditable-activate').click(function() {
$(this).prev().trigger('whateverEvent');
});
