Is there a way/jQuery method to measure view-port height separately?
One vh when Address-bar is showing & another vh when Address-bar is hidden?
var vhAdBarPresent = $(window).height();
var vhAdBarHidden = $(window).height();
I googled this issue and stumbled various articles where they manually compensate for address-bar by add or subtracting 56px from regular 100vh.
Is this the only option we got? 56px only works for chrome other browsers might have different address-bar heights...
All I want to do is make a draggable bottom nav which stays at bottom by default and covers the whole viewport once dragged up using a handle. But footer just refuses to stay at the bottom.
You can see the problem I am facing on my Github Demo. Open in android chrome (It works as intended on desktop browsers but in mobile browsers which hide the address-bar on scroll, it breaks.)
In this demo I am trying to align the footer at the bottom of the screen. But when the footer is dragged/ the page is scrolled it is not positioned at the bottom.
Here's the code for you reference...
$(function() {
var dragFlag = 0;
var navPos = Math.round(0.93 * $(window).height());
var dragUL = Math.round(0.2 * navPos);
var dragLL = Math.round(0.8 * navPos);
console.log(dragFlag);
var $draggable = $('.draggable').draggabilly({
axis: 'y',
handle: '.handle'
});
var draggie = $('.draggable').data('draggabilly');
$draggable.on('dragEnd', function(event, pointer) {
var dragPosY = Math.round(draggie.position.y);
console.log("DPY: " + dragPosY + "; NP: " + navPos + "; dUL: " + dragUL + "; dLL: " + dragLL);
if (dragFlag === 0) {
if (dragPosY > dragLL) {
$draggable.draggabilly('setPosition', 0, navPos);
dragFlag = 0;
console.log(dragPosY + "DPY > DLL" + dragLL + "; DF:" + dragFlag);
}
if (dragPosY < dragLL) {
$draggable.draggabilly('setPosition', 0, 0);
dragFlag = 1;
console.log(dragPosY + "DPY < DLL" + dragLL + "; DF:" + dragFlag);
}
} else if (dragFlag === 1) {
if (dragPosY > dragUL) {
$draggable.draggabilly('setPosition', 0, navPos);
dragFlag = 0;
console.log(dragPosY + "DPY > DLL" + dragLL + "; DF:" + dragFlag);
}
if (dragPosY < dragUL) {
$draggable.draggabilly('setPosition', 0, 0);
dragFlag = 1;
console.log(dragPosY + "DPY < DLL" + dragLL + "; DF:" + dragFlag);
}
}
});
