How to hide() element whitout rude effect. Using flexbox in css

Leave a Comment

I need to center divs and hide them on each click, the problem is when I use hide() and flexbox it makes a rude effect after dissapear, but if you just simply float elements to left it makes fine, how can I achieve this?

I need to apply exactly the same disappearing effect that is in the first example to the second one (with flexbox).

Here is the example:

$(".example1, .example2").click(function(){      $(this).hide("slow")  });
.main{    border: 2px solid black;    height: 100%;    width: 100%;  }  .example1{    background-color: grey;    width: 50px;    height: 50px;    margin: 10px;    float: left;  }    .example2{    background-color: grey;    width: 50px;    height: 50px;    margin: 10px;    float: left;    text-align: center;    margin-left: 8px;  }  .second{    border: 2px solid black;    display:                 flex;    display:                 -webkit-flex;     flex-wrap:               wrap;    -webkit-flex-wrap:       wrap;            justify-content:         center;  }
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>  <div class="main">   With simple float left it hides slowly fine:  <div class="first">      <div class="example1">1</div>      <div class="example1">2</div>      <div class="example1">3</div>      <div class="example1">4</div>      <div class="example1">5</div>      <div class="example1">6</div>      <div class="example1">7</div>      <div class="example1">8</div>      <div class="example1">9</div>      <div class="example1">10</div>      <div class="example1">11</div>      <div class="example1">12</div>      <div class="example1">12</div>      <div class="example1">13</div>  <div>  <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>  Now flex center, when you hide it makes rude effect, it isnt like div.example1:  <div class="second">      <div class="example2">1</div>      <div class="example2">2</div>      <div class="example2">3</div>      <div class="example2">4</div>      <div class="example2">5</div>      <div class="example2">6</div>      <div class="example2">7</div>      <div class="example2">8</div>      <div class="example2">9</div>      <div class="example2">10</div>      <div class="example2">11</div>      <div class="example2">12</div>      <div class="example2">13</div>      <div class="example2">14</div>  </div>  </div>

Use flex-start for justify content instead of center. Now it has the same effect as with float. You can also use fadeOut instead of hide to achieve effect you want.

$(".example1, .example2").click(function(){      $(this).fadeOut("slow")  });
.main{    border: 2px solid black;    height: 100%;    width: 100%;  }  .example1{    background-color: grey;    width: 50px;    height: 50px;    margin: 10px;    float: left;  }    .example2{    background-color: grey;    width: 50px;    height: 50px;    margin: 10px;    display: flex;    justify-content: flex-start;    text-align: center;    margin-left: 8px;  }  .second{    border: 2px solid black;    display:                 flex;    display:                 -webkit-flex;     flex-wrap:               wrap;    -webkit-flex-wrap:       wrap;            justify-content:         center;  }
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>  <div class="main">   With simple float left it hides slowly fine:  <div class="first">      <div class="example1">1</div>      <div class="example1">2</div>      <div class="example1">3</div>      <div class="example1">4</div>      <div class="example1">5</div>      <div class="example1">6</div>      <div class="example1">7</div>      <div class="example1">8</div>      <div class="example1">9</div>      <div class="example1">10</div>      <div class="example1">11</div>      <div class="example1">12</div>      <div class="example1">12</div>      <div class="example1">13</div>  <div>  <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>  Now flex center, when you hide it makes rude effect, it isnt like div.example1:  <div class="second">      <div class="example2">1</div>      <div class="example2">2</div>      <div class="example2">3</div>      <div class="example2">4</div>      <div class="example2">5</div>      <div class="example2">6</div>      <div class="example2">7</div>      <div class="example2">8</div>      <div class="example2">9</div>      <div class="example2">10</div>      <div class="example2">11</div>      <div class="example2">12</div>      <div class="example2">13</div>      <div class="example2">14</div>  </div>  </div>

First, you can notice that this issue doesn't happen when you try to remove an item from the last row (excluding the first one in the last row). The issue appears when the first element of the row n suddenly go to the row n-1 because of 2 things :

  1. You are trying to remove this first element so its width is going to 0 then for sure he will be able to fit into the previous row.
  2. You are trying to remove any element so its width is going to 0 and you are creating enough space for the first element of next row to jump on it.

And this is simply due to center alignment as there is no difference if you do it with float, inline-block or flex. What is happening is that during the transition all the elements are moving to the center and when the new element comes (the first one of the next row) all the elements are re-placed again to keep the center alignement and then you have the rude effect !

With left alignment all the elements will move to the left during the transition and they won't move again at the end of transition (when the new element comes) so we don't have any rude effect.

Here is a snippet that shows inline-block and flex working fine with left alignment :

$(".example2, .example1").click(function() {    $(this).hide("slow");      });
.main {    border: 2px solid black;    height: 100%;    width: 100%;  }    .example1 {    background-color: grey;    width: 50px;    height: 50px;    margin: 10px;    text-align: center;    display:inline-block;    margin: 8px;    transition:margin 0.6s;  }  .example2 {    background-color: grey;    width: 50px;    height: 50px;    margin: 10px;    text-align: center;    float:left;    display:inline-block;    margin: 8px;    transition:margin 0.6s;  }  .first {    border: 2px solid black;    display: flex;    flex-wrap: wrap;  }    .second {    border: 2px solid black;    display: flex;    flex-wrap: wrap;  }
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>  <div class="main">    inline-block     <div class="first">      <div class="example1">1</div>      <div class="example1">2</div>      <div class="example1">3</div>      <div class="example1">4</div>      <div class="example1">5</div>      <div class="example1">6</div>      <div class="example1">7</div>      <div class="example1">8</div>      <div class="example1">9</div>      <div class="example1">10</div>      <div class="example1">11</div>      <div class="example1">12</div>      <div class="example1">13</div>      <div class="example1">14</div>      <div class="example1">15</div>      <div class="example1">16</div>      <div class="example1">17</div>      <div class="example1">18</div>      <div class="example1">19</div>    </div>     flex solution    <div class="second">      <div class="example2">1</div>      <div class="example2">2</div>      <div class="example2">3</div>      <div class="example2">4</div>      <div class="example2">5</div>      <div class="example2">6</div>      <div class="example2">7</div>      <div class="example2">8</div>      <div class="example2">9</div>      <div class="example2">10</div>      <div class="example2">11</div>      <div class="example2">12</div>      <div class="example2">13</div>      <div class="example2">14</div>      <div class="example2">15</div>      <div class="example2">16</div>      <div class="example2">17</div>      <div class="example2">18</div>      <div class="example2">19</div>    </div>  </div>

Unfortunately, I don't have a solution to this if you want to only use the hide() of jQuery. Maybe some ideas of solution is to make a more complex code that will avoid the centered elements to move in two directions (you may for example change margin property at the same time to cancel the movement) or you can keep the left alignment and find some trick to simulate the centering (dynamically add some margin when window resize for example).

Hope this will help you to investigate more (even if I didn't really give a solution).

You can achieve the above without flex by making the children div's as inline-block with the parent being set with text-align:center, please take a look at this.

$(".example1, .example2").click(function(){      $(this).fadeOut("slow");  });
.main{    border: 2px dotted black;    height: 100%;    width: 100%;  }  .example1{    display: inline-block;    background-color: steelblue;    color: #FFF;    cursor: pointer;    margin: 10px;    padding: 15px 20px;  }    .first{    text-align: center;  }
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.0/jquery.min.js"></script>  <div class="main">   <div class="first">      <div class="example1">1</div>      <div class="example1">2</div>      <div class="example1">3</div>      <div class="example1">4</div>      <div class="example1">5</div>      <div class="example1">6</div>      <div class="example1">7</div>      <div class="example1">8</div>      <div class="example1">9</div>      <div class="example1">10</div>      <div class="example1">11</div>      <div class="example1">12</div>      <div class="example1">12</div>      <div class="example1">13</div>      </div>  </div>

My idea is: fade the whole parent container during reordering. The effect will not so rude.

$(".second div").click(function() {    $(this).hide("slow");    var p = $(this).parent();    p.addClass("hidden");    setTimeout(function() {      p.removeClass("hidden")    }, 300);  });
p {    clear: both;  }    .second {    display: flex;    flex-wrap: wrap;    justify-content: center;    border: 2px solid black;    transition: 200ms;  }    .second div {    background-color: grey;    width: 50px;    height: 50px;    margin: 10px;  }    .hidden {    opacity: 0;  }
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>    <div class="second">    <div>1</div>    <div>2</div>    <div>3</div>    <div>4</div>    <div>5</div>    <div>6</div>    <div>7</div>    <div>8</div>    <div>9</div>    <div>10</div>    <div>11</div>    <div>12</div>    <div>13</div>    <div>14</div>  </div>

Well as pointed out already it would require some kind of "physics engine" moving the other blocks up smoothly etc.

But I made an attempt anyway which looks a bit more smooth at least.

$(".example1, .example2").click(function(){        var time = 600;        var $parent = $(this).parent();        $parent.animate({'width': '90%'}, time/2, function() {             $parent.animate({'width': '100%'}, time/2);          });      $(this).hide(time);      });
.main{    border: 2px solid black;    height: 100%;    width: 100%;  }  .example1{    background-color: grey;    width: 50px;    height: 50px;    margin: 10px;    float: left;  }    .example2{    background-color: grey;    width: 50px;    height: 50px;    margin: 10px;    float: left;    text-align: center;    margin-left: 8px;  }  .second{    display:                 flex;    display:                 -webkit-flex;     flex-wrap:               wrap;    -webkit-flex-wrap:       wrap;            justify-content:         center;    overflow: hidden;  }
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>  <div class="main">   <div class="second">      <div class="example2">1</div>      <div class="example2">2</div>      <div class="example2">3</div>      <div class="example2">4</div>      <div class="example2">5</div>      <div class="example2">6</div>      <div class="example2">7</div>      <div class="example2">8</div>      <div class="example2">9</div>      <div class="example2">10</div>      <div class="example2">11</div>      <div class="example2">12</div>      <div class="example2">13</div>      <div class="example2">14</div>  </div>  </div>

Instead of justify-content: center I changed it to justify-content: space-evenly (in your case, looks somewhat similar to center only) also updated the function from simply hiding to .animate and then .hide. Will it do?

$(".example1, .example2").click(function(){      var _this = this;      $(_this).animate({width: "0"}, 500, function(){ $(_this).hide(500) })  });
.main{    border: 2px solid black;    height: 100%;    width: 100%;  }  .example1{    background-color: grey;    width: 50px;    height: 50px;    margin: 10px;    float: left;  }    .example2{    background-color: grey;    width: 50px;    height: 50px;    margin: 10px;    float: left;    text-align: center;    margin-left: 8px;    overflow: hidden;  }  .second{    border: 2px solid black;    display:                 flex;    display:                 -webkit-flex;     flex-wrap:               wrap;    -webkit-flex-wrap:       wrap;            justify-content:         space-evenly;  }
