FluidGrid
FluidGrid allows to set up a nice tight grid with items that have variable heights and widths. FluidGrid is a responsive grid. That means, the grid will reflow as the window size changes. Items can have any content: text, images, links, input fields, etc. They can be defined in a static or in a dynamic way as in data iteration components.

This example demonstrates a simple usage with dynamic items. Dynamic items can be put in a collection or list of FluidGridItem instances. A FluidGridItem instance contains a data object (of any data types) and an optional type property to match the type attribute in pe:fluidGridItem (see the example with dynamic form). Dynamic items can be accessed in XHTML via the value attribute and exposed via the var attribute. Click on the button below and resize the browser to test the fluid grid!

Note: The attribute hasImages is set to true to fix overlapping of items which are caused by unloaded images. If this attribute is set to true, the grid layout will be triggered after all images have been loaded and items have their proper sizes. The example also demonstrates the event layoutComplete which is fired after a layout of fluid grid and all positioning transitions have been completed.

Attributes (move mouse over the names to see data types)
Name Description
id Unique identifier of the component in a naming container.
rendered Boolean value to specify the rendering of the component, when set to false component will not be rendered.
binding An EL expression referring to a server side UIComponent instance in a backing bean.
widgetVar Name of the client side widget.
value Collection of items (FluidGridItem) representing model of this component.
var Name of the request-scoped variable for the underlaying object for each iteration.
varContainerId Name of the request-scoped variable which contains the prefix of the client ID within pe:fluidGridItem. This property allows to get the whole clientId of a component within pe:fluidGridItem. The whole client ID is sometimes required for JavaScript or RequestContext.update(...).
style Style of the main container element. Default value is null.
styleClass Style class of the main container element. Default value is null.
hGutter Horizontal space between item elements (interpreted as pixels). Default is 0.
vGutter Vertical space between item elements (interpreted as pixels). Default is 0.
fitWidth Sets the width of the container to fit the available number of columns, based on the size of container's parent element. When enabled, you can center the container with CSS. Note: This option does not work with percentage width of items. Default is false.
originLeft Controls the horizontal flow of the layout. By default, item elements start positioning at the left. Set to false for right-to-left layouts.
originTop Controls the vertical flow of the layout. By default, item elements start positioning at the top. Set to false for bottom-up layouts. It's like Tetris!
resizeBound Binds layout to window resizing. You can bind and unbind resize layout afterward with the bindResize and unbindResize client-side widget's methods. Default is true.
stamp Specifies which elements are stamped within the layout. These are special layout elements which will not be laid out. Rather, FluidGrid will lay out item elements below stamped elements. You can use here every search expressions supported by PrimeFaces Search Expression Framework. Default is null.
transitionDuration Duration of the transition when items change position or appearance, set in a CSS time format. To disable all transitions, set this attribute to null. Default is 0.4s.
hasImages Boolean flag if items contain any images. This can fix overlapping items which are caused by items that change size after a layout due to unloaded media like images. Setting this flag allows to lay out all items after they have their proper sizes (images have been loaded). Default value is false.
Events (move mouse over the names to see classes)
