Hello,
this is a proposal for http VLM interface.

I found useful button, which can hide/show VLM helper. I have several Elements and helper fills viewable space. It can be done in a much better way, but this is just idea.

In ./http/js/vlm.js define a new function

Code: Select all

function hide_helper()
{
      var helper = document.getElementById( 'vlm_helper' ).style.display;
      if(helper=='none') { document.getElementById( 'vlm_helper' ).style.display = '';}
      else 
      {document.getElementById( 'vlm_helper' ).style.display = 'none';}
}

and in ./http/dialogs/vlm add

Code: Select all

<button id="btn_hide_helper" onclick="hide_helper();" onmouseover="button_over(this);" onmouseout="button_out(this);">
      Toggle helper
</button>

Hello,
just better code:

Code: Select all

<button id="btn_vlm_helper_toggle" onclick="toggle_show_vlm_helper();" onmouseover="button_over(this);" 

onmouseout="button_out(this);"> 
      Hide VLM helper 
</button>

and

Code: Select all

function toggle_show_vlm_helper()
{
    var element = document.getElementById( "vlm_helper" );
    if( element.style.display == 'block' || element.style.display == '')
    {
        element.style.display = 'none';
        document.getElementById( "btn_vlm_helper_toggle" ).value = 'Show VLM helper';
    }
    else
    {
        element.style.display = 'block';
        document.getElementById( "btn_vlm_helper_toggle" ).value = 'Hide VLM helper';
    }
}

How do I change the code such that the VLM Helper defaults to hide?
