Yes a while ago, I haven’t played with one since 4.3 tho

I did, yes, havent tested that in a while

super simple (<150 loc) app to monitor a folder (and its sub folders) looking for git repos and showing when things have uncommited changes

i find myself clicking around a git client all the time going "i cant remember if i have commited everything or not", my git client has this window:

but it doesnt show changes (for some reason)...

lol the scrollbar for this

so many libs ian 😂

is this a haxeui app?

No, it is GitKraken

So I'm wondering where the best place to ask this - assuming here. But I have the need for a component that acts like a generic fluid grid. I'm aware that you can sort of get that with

HBox + Continuous

but I'm wondering if that's better than trying to fit the

Grid

component into that usecase instead - or even something else if that's existing. But, basically, looking for something where it has cells of a certain proportion that expand or separate to fill the space of the container they're inside of. I'm thinking

HBox + Continuous

would be great for this but from what I understand there's no spacing options. In HTML + CSS it would look exactly like this https://jsfiddle.net/prv3qu26/ (just as an example)

it doesnt work exactly the same, but its similar: http://haxeui.org/builder/?3094f5e9

spacing / padding are taken into account when making the calcs

what it doesnt do is sort of distribute the spacing between the items

Thank you! Yeah that's the closest I can get without having to rewrite my own container - which I'm not sure how to do haha. I'm making this for a range of dimensions and wanted it to be responsive and that's close, I just don't like the wide space at the right of it all... I was testing what Grid looked like and I don't think it's what I want either. So would I have to sort of rewrite HBox to do this?

i do completely agree with you

I think, perhaps, I might not need to rewrite the whole thing. I could work on calculating the spacing based on dimensions?

leave it with me, ill have a think, just not how to express that in css, or maybe it should be the default and not changeable... 🤔

Ahh okay! So if you are working on this in terms of css there's a way to express the intention of the user in html/css which is

justify-content: space-around | space-evenly | ....;

if you're not aware of it

yeah, i saw that... just dunno if i wanna do that as this will just be for this layout current... although... maybe it wouldnt need to be

Right, and in css (for flexboxes) there's also

align-content

which is the cross axis of

justify-content

so this would work vertically as well, but I've never used it

so the haxeui continuous hbox is basically this: https://jsfiddle.net/prv3qu26/ (justify-content: start)

anyways, ill have a think / play at some point... sounds like justify-content does make sense to add, even if its just used by this layout for now

Gotcha! That sounds good to me. Thanks man! In that case I'll go ahead and use the continuous hbox for what I'm trying to do then

yeah, just squint and pretend it works for now, i think its a totally valid use case, as i also think that extra space, though useful in some cases, is probably NOT what you are after very often

well, its easy enough to hack in (as a PoC),

That's pretty sweet! Nice!

I should also note that the way it looks when there's not enough to overflow to a new row looks like this: https://jsfiddle.net/z7rcamLw/. Notice that it doesn't spread them evenly but that it hugs to the left. I think that is desirable when there's no overflow . . what do you think?
