Categories Dressing

[weber]

thanks for the great mode which much better than the original zen cart mode without nesting ul.

i have a question: is this mode can set to displaying all subs and sub-subs under an active top cate, with all other top cates(of course collapsed)

example:

top1(active)
sub1
sub1.1
sub1.2
....
sub2
sub2.1
sub2.2
...
top2
top3

My Sidebox is starting to look good...

How can I move the text over to the left more to make it look right?

( "take10" for 10% off code )

Actually for some strange reason some of the boxes are funny...
If someone can take a look.

weber - Yes, there are several variations of expanded categories available with the latest Categories Dressing, which incorporates fragfutter's Uncollapsed Categories Tree mod as an option. Full information is in the readme.

milobloom - You have two issues. First, the entire sidebox content has a 13px left padding, which you can remove in stylesheet_boxes.css

.box .box-indent{padding:17px 2px 20px /*13px*/0px !important; overflow:hidden; background:url(../images/box5_bg2.gif) no-repeat right bottom;}

The top heading has extra margin, which can be fixed in stylesheet_categories_dressing.css

.catBoxHeading6 {
		border-bottom: 2px solid #9966FF;
		border-top: 2px solid #9966FF;
		margin-left: -10px;
    }

I don't see any categories boxes looking funny aside from the top heading.

Excelent! Thank you.

One small thing...

I tried adjusting each one... But the "Specials" one wont move to the left....

You have the margin-left at -20px for that, instead of -10px like the rest:

.catBoxHeading5 {
		border-bottom: 2px solid #09f;
		border-top: 2px solid #09f;
		margin-left: -10px;
    }  
.catBoxHeading6 {
		border-bottom: 2px solid #9966FF;
		border-top: 2px solid #9966FF;
        margin-left: -20px;
    }

When I change it to -20
The Top Cat looks better.
But that box moves to the end.
Change it to -10 then the specials look good then
the top cat moves over a bit.

You are using v2.6, which had incorrectly nested <ul> elements in some respects. It usually works fine, but here seems to be a case where the bug shows up.
You can either upgrade to v2.7.3 (keeping your existing stylesheet and defines files so you don't lose your customizations), or change the second .catBoxHeading6 to .catBoxHeading7 and style that independently.

gjh42: unfortunately the included ch_category_tree will simply expand all list... i checked. all i need is something will expand the subs and sub-subs under active top category

[gjh42]

Categories Dressing has controls to fine-tune the expanded categories. One of the options is to expand only the active top category.
