Ethereal by Pixelarity pixelarity.com | hello@pixelarity.com License: pixelarity.com/license Overview ======== Browsers deal with side-scrolling pages differently to vertically-oriented ones in that they require elements (or at the very least, the top-most wrapper element) to have a defined (fixed) width. This leads to a number of limitations (eg. the page won't automatically grow/shrink in the same way a vertically-oriented one will), so Ethereal does two things to work around this: - The entire page is made up of "panel" elements, each of which can be assigned an optional "size" modifier (satisfying the fixed width requirement). - For panels that don't use a size modifier, individual containing elements *inside* them (eg. a column) can be assigned a "span" modifier to give those a fixed width instead (also satisfying the fixed width requirement). Another fun quirk of side-scrolling pages is how to actually implement horizontal scrolling *without* resorting to using the (usually ugly) horizontal scrollbar. Ethereal does this in FOUR (!) ways: - Dragging: Users can simply click and drag the page left or right to scroll it around. This works exactly as you'd expect, and even has a nice "post-scroll momentum" effect. - Scroll Wheel: Ethereal modifies* the scroll wheel's behavior to translate vertical scrolling into horizontal scrolling, allowing the user to use either the scroll wheel or trackpad to scroll the page (the latter of which retains the ability to horziontally scroll as normal, so nothing changes there). * Special thanks to @miorel + @pieterv of Facebook for "normalizeWheel()" :) - Scroll Zones: Users can hover the mouse cursor on the left or right edges of the page to automatically scroll in either direction. - Keyboard Shortcuts: Finally, users can simply use the left/right arrows, page up/down, home/end, and the spacebar to scroll the page. Note that any (or all) of these scroll-assist features can be turned off (and in some cases customized). See the top of assets/js/main.js for more information. Span Modifiers ============== Span modifiers are simply classes that give elements a fixed width, the size of which is determined by the "unit value" associated with the modifier (eg. "span-3" means "span 3 units"). These sizes are in "rem" units when used inside panels that don't use a size modifier, and in percentage units when used inside panels that do. Ethereal includes span modifiers ranging from 0.25 units ("span-0-25") to 10 units ("span-10"). Here's a partial list: span-0-25 Span 0.25 units. span-0-5 Span 0.5 units. span-0-75 Span 0.75 units. span-1 Span 1 unit. span-1-25 Span 1.25 units. span-1-5 Span 1.5 units. span-1-75 Span 1.75 units. ... span-9 Span 9 units. span-9-25 Span 9.25 units. span-9-5 Span 9.5 units. span-9-75 Span 9.75 units. span-10 Span 10 units. Major Elements ============== Most of Ethereal's elements are pretty much what you'd expect, but there are a handful of "major" ones that warrant a bit more explanation: Panel ------ The primary building block of Ethereal. HTML <section class="panel (size modifier) (color modifier)"> <div class="intro (color modifier)"> (intro content) </div> <div class="inner (inner modifiers) (color modifier)"> (inner content) </div> </section> Note: The entire "intro" child element can be excluded. Note: You can have as many "intro" and "inner" child elements as you like. Modifiers Size small Use small size. medium Use medium size. large Use large size. Color color0 Use background color 0 (gradient). color1 Use background color 1. color2 Use background color 2. color3 Use background color 3. color4 Use background color 4. color1-alt Use background color 1 (alt). color2-alt Use background color 2 (alt). color3-alt Use background color 3 (alt). color4-alt Use background color 4 (alt). Inner columns Divides child elements into columns. aligned When used with "columns", aligns content to top of panel. divided When used with "columns", separates each column with a vertical line. Examples Here's a very basic example: <section class="panel medium color0"> <div class="intro"> <h2 class="major">Panel</h2> <p>Just a generic panel.</p> </div> <div class="inner"> <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.</p> </div> </section> And here's a more advanced example using columns and *no* size modifier: <section class="panel color2"> <div class="intro"> <h2 class="major">Panel</h2> <p>Just a generic panel.</p> </div> <div class="inner columns"> <div class="span-4"> <p>This column is 4 units wide.</p> </div> <div class="span-3"> <p>This column is 3 units wide.</p> </div> <div class="span-2"> <p>This column is 2 units wide.</p> </div> </div> </section> Note: The "intro" child element already has a fixed width, so a span modifier isn't required. Panel (Banner) -------------- The "Banner" variant of a regular panel. HTML <section class="panel banner (size modifier) (color modifier) (orientation modifier)"> <div class="content (color modifier)"> (content) </div> <div class="image (image modifiers)" data-position="(image position modifier)"> <img src="(image URL)" alt="" /> </div> </section> Modifiers Orientation left Content on the left, image on the right. right Content on the right, image on the left. Image filtered Applies a gradient filter to the image. tinted Applies a tint filter to the image. Image Position (required) top left Position image in the top-left corner. top Position image along the top edge. top right Position image in the top-right corner. right Position image along the right edge. bottom right Position image in the bottom-right corner. bottom Position image along the bottom edge. bottom left Position image in the bottom-left corner. left Position image along the left edge. center Position image in the center. Example <section class="panel banner medium right"> <div class="content color0"> <h1>Banner</h1> <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.</p> </div> <div class="image" data-position="center"> <img src="/path/to/image.jpg" alt="" /> </div> </section> Panel (Spotlight) ----------------- The "Spotlight" variant of a regular panel. HTML <section class="panel spotlight (size modifier) (orientation modifier)"> <div class="content (span modifier)"> (content) </div> <div class="image (image modifiers)" data-position="(image position modifier)"> <img src="(image URL)" alt="" /> </div> </section> Modifiers Orientation left Content on the left. right Content on the right. Image filtered Applies a gradient filter to the image. tinted Applies a tint filter to the image. Image Position (required) top left Position image in the top-left corner. top Position image along the top edge. top right Position image in the top-right corner. right Position image along the right edge. bottom right Position image in the bottom-right corner. bottom Position image along the bottom edge. bottom left Position image in the bottom-left corner. left Position image along the left edge. center Position image in the center. Example <section class="panel spotlight large right"> <div class="content"> <h1>Spotlight</h1> <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.</p> </div> <div class="image" data-position="center"> <img src="/path/to/image.jpg" alt="" /> </div> </section> Gallery ------- A lightbox-enabled gallery. HTML <div class="gallery"> <a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)"> <img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" /> </a> <a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)"> <img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" /> </a> <a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)"> <img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" /> </a> <div class="group (span modifier)"> <a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)"> <img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" /> </a> <a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)"> <img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" /> </a> <a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)"> <img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" /> </a> <a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)"> <img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" /> </a> ... </div> ... </div> Note: The "group" element creates a dual-row group of images. Images inside this group will automatically wrap to the next row when they exceed its width (as defined by its span modifier). You can have as many groups in a gallery as you like. Modifiers Image filtered Applies a gradient filter to the image. tinted Applies a tint filter to the image. Image Position (required) top left Position image in the top-left corner. top Position image along the top edge. top right Position image in the top-right corner. right Position image along the right edge. bottom right Position image in the bottom-right corner. bottom Position image along the bottom edge. bottom left Position image in the bottom-left corner. left Position image along the left edge. center Position image in the center. Example <div class="gallery"> <a href="/images/thumbnails/01.jpg" class="image filtered span-2" data-position="center"> <img src="/images/fulls/01.jpg" alt="" /> </a> <a href="/images/thumbnails/02.jpg" class="image filtered span-4" data-position="center"> <img src="/images/fulls/02.jpg" alt="" /> </a> <div class="group span-4"> <a href="/images/thumbnails/03.jpg" class="image filtered span-2" data-position="center"> <img src="/images/fulls/03.jpg" alt="" /> </a> <a href="/images/thumbnails/04.jpg" class="image filtered span-2" data-position="center"> <img src="/images/fulls/04.jpg" alt="" /> </a> <a href="/images/thumbnails/05.jpg" class="image filtered span-2" data-position="center"> <img src="/images/fulls/05.jpg" alt="" /> </a> <a href="/images/thumbnails/06.jpg" class="image filtered span-2" data-position="center"> <img src="/images/fulls/06.jpg" alt="" /> </a> </div> </div>
