Problem with myServer6 interface

5 months 2 weeks ago
#4855
I've had a lot going on recently so haven't been messing with myServer very much, but since I had some time on my hands today I decided to do some housekeeping. After updating pretty much everything I'm having an issue in the drivers sections. Some of my drivers have dozens of items in the list. If I go to a device near the bottom of the list and hit the twirly in order to expand that device's variables the myServer interface window isn't expanding along with it so I can't scroll down far enough to see the variables. Other sections like my IR database the twirly works as expected. 

Is this something that I might be able to fix myself or is this something that Allonis has to address on their end?

If I am understanding, Tab down through the interface.  I have seen what I am thinking you are saying and that is a workaround.

That kind of works, but doesn't necessarily allow me to move down far enough to see all of the variables associated with a device at or near the bottom of the list.

Any chance that we could get a fix for this?

I saw that there was an update for myServer today and just installed it. Unfortunately this hasn't been fixed. Can we get an update that addresses this?

I got tired of dealing with this so I decided to do something about it today. I thought that it was a rendering problem but it's actually because myServer uses Kendo UI to fake virtual scrollbars and it needs to refactor the amount of scrolling travel when you twirl down an item. That calculation is based on the number of rows in the grid * the (fixed) height of the rows, and for items near the bottom of the list that math ain't mathing correctly. The scrollbar runs out of travel and you can't see anything below the fold. 

For now I've installed the Tampermonkey extension in Chrome and installed a script that runs whenever I navigate to myServer's IP address. The script disables the virtual scrollbars in favor of native scroll bars. Now I can access the variables for items at the bottom of long device lists in the driver sections without having to filter by device ID.

To be clear, this isn't a fix. It's a local browser hack. A permanent fix will require Allonis to reconfigure these grids as non virtual so the variable rows expand correctly for everyone.

If I understand the problem you describe it's been one that had bugged me for a long time. So today I fixed it. The server I just pushed has the fix in it. You may have to flash browser cache as it involves JavaScript changes.
