|
21 Isotope has a versatile layout engine that can accommodate multiple layout modes. You can set and change the layout mode via the `layoutMode` option. |
|
22 |
|
23 [**See Demo: Layout modes**](../demos/layout-modes.html) |
|
24 |
|
25 ### Example |
|
26 |
|
27 {% highlight javascript %} |
|
28 |
|
29 $('#container').isotope({ layoutMode : 'fitRows' }); |
|
30 |
|
31 {% endhighlight %} |
|
32 |
|
33 Several layout modes are built into Isotope. |
|
34 |
|
35 ### Horizontal layouts |
|
36 |
|
37 Horizontal layout modes (masonryHorizontal, fitColumns, cellsByColumn, and straightAcross) need a container that has a height value. Be sure that your CSS has height set. |
|
38 |
|
39 {% highlight css %} |
|
40 |
|
41 #container { |
|
42 /* either of these will work for horizontal Isotope layouts */ |
|
43 height: 80%; |
|
44 height: 480px; |
|
45 } |
|
46 |
|
47 {% endhighlight %} |
|
48 |
|
49 ## cellsByColumn |
|
50 |
|
51 A **horizontal** grid layout where items are centered inside each cell. The grid is defined by two options, `columnWidth` and `rowHeight`. The horizontal equivalent of cellsByRow. |
|
52 |
|
53 ### Options {#cellsByColumn-options} |
|
54 |
|
55 <dl class="clearfix"> |
|
56 <dt><code>columnWidth</code></dt> |
|
57 <dd class="option-type">Integer</dd> |
|
58 </dl> |
|
59 <dl class="clearfix"> |
|
60 <dt><code>rowHeight</code></dt> |
|
61 <dd class="option-type">Integer</dd> |
|
62 </dl> |
|
63 |
|
64 ### Example {#cellsByColumn-example} |
|
65 |
|
66 {% highlight javascript %} |
|
67 |
|
68 $('#container').isotope({ |
|
69 layoutMode: 'cellsByColumn', |
|
70 cellsByRow: { |
|
71 columnWidth: 240, |
|
72 rowHeight: 360 |
|
73 } |
|
74 }); |
|
75 |
|
76 {% endhighlight %} |
|
77 |
|
78 |
|
79 ## cellsByRow |
|
80 |
|
81 A **vertical** grid layout where items are centered inside each cell. The grid is defined by two options, `columnWidth` and `rowHeight`. |
|
82 |
|
83 ### Options {#cellsByRow-options} |
|
84 |
|
85 <dl class="clearfix"> |
|
86 <dt><code>columnWidth</code></dt> |
|
87 <dd class="option-type">Integer</dd> |
|
88 </dl> |
|
89 <dl class="clearfix"> |
|
90 <dt><code>rowHeight</code></dt> |
|
91 <dd class="option-type">Integer</dd> |
|
92 </dl> |
|
93 |
|
94 ### Example {#cellsByRow-example} |
|
95 |
|
96 {% highlight javascript %} |
|
97 |
|
98 $('#container').isotope({ |
|
99 layoutMode: 'cellsByRow', |
|
100 cellsByRow: { |
|
101 columnWidth: 240, |
|
102 rowHeight: 360 |
|
103 } |
|
104 }); |
|
105 |
|
106 {% endhighlight %} |
|
107 |
|
108 ## fitColumns |
|
109 |
|
110 Item elements are arranged into columns. Columns progress **horizontally** from left to right. Items within those columns are arranged top-to-bottom. The horizontal equivalent of fitRows. |
|
111 |
|
112 ## fitRows |
|
113 |
|
114 Item elements are arranged into rows. Rows progress **vertically** top to bottom. Similar to what you would expect from a layout that uses `float: left`. |
|
115 |
|
116 ## masonry |
|
117 |
|
118 Masonry is the default layout mode for Isotope. Item elements are arranged intelligently within a **vertical** grid. For each item element, the script calculates the next best fit for the item within the grid. |
|
119 |
|
120 ### Options {#masonry-options} |
|
121 |
|
122 <dl class="clearfix"> |
|
123 <dt><code>columnWidth</code></dt> |
|
124 <dd class="option-type">Integer</dd> |
|
125 </dl> |
|
126 |
|
127 The width of one column in the grid. If no value is set for `columnWidth`, default is the width of the first item element. |
|
128 |
|
129 ### Example {#masonry-example} |
|
130 |
|
131 {% highlight javascript %} |
|
132 |
|
133 $('#container').isotope({ |
|
134 masonry: { |
|
135 columnWidth: 240 |
|
136 } |
|
137 }); |
|
138 |
|
139 {% endhighlight %} |
|
140 |
|
141 |
|
142 ## masonryHorizontal |
|
143 |
|
144 The **horizontal** equivalent of masonry layout. Instead of progressing top-to-bottom, masonryHorizontal layout will progress left-to-right. Item elements are arranged intelligently within a grid. For each item element, the script calculates the next best fit for the item within the grid. |
|
145 |
|
146 ### Options {#masonryHorizontal-options} |
|
147 |
|
148 <dl class="clearfix"> |
|
149 <dt><code>rowHeight</code></dt> |
|
150 <dd class="option-type">Integer</dd> |
|
151 </dl> |
|
152 |
|
153 The width of one column in the grid. If no value is set for `rowHeight`, default is the height of the first item element. |
|
154 |
|
155 ### Example {#masonryHorizontal-example} |
|
156 |
|
157 {% highlight javascript %} |
|
158 |
|
159 $('#container').isotope({ |
|
160 masonryHorizontal: { |
|
161 rowHeight: 360 |
|
162 } |
|
163 }); |
|
164 |
|
165 {% endhighlight %} |
|
166 |
|
167 ## straightAcross |
|
168 |
|
169 Item elements are arranged **horizontally** left to right. Useful for simple lists. |
|
170 |
|
171 ## straightDown |
|
172 |
|
173 Item elements are arranged **vertically** top to bottom. Useful for simple lists. |
|
174 |
|
175 ## Modified layout modes |
|
176 |
|
177 [Isotope's methods can be extended and overwritten](extending-isotope.html) to shim-in additional functionality. See these modified layout modes: |
|
178 |
|
179 + [**Centered masonry**](../custom-layout-modes/centered-masonry.html) |
|
180 + [**Masonry corner stamp**](../custom-layout-modes/masonry-corner-stamp.html) |
|
181 + [**Masonry gutters**](../custom-layout-modes/masonry-gutters.html) |
|
182 |
|
183 To use these mods, copy the revised methods found in the demos' page source. They look like: |
|
184 |
|
185 {% highlight javascript %} |
|
186 |
|
187 $.Isotope.prototype._masonryReset = function() { |
|
188 // modified code.. |
|
189 }; |
|
190 |
|
191 {% endhighlight %} |
