Positioning

Closed this issue · 5 comments

Hi there,

is there any way to position the box? I dont´t need it centered but about 150px more above and 50px more right.

Thanks in advance

There's no way to position it relative to its centered position, but you can position it manually relative to the document.

set centered: false; (this is default, I believe) and set the modalCSS parameter to whatever you like, such as:

{top: '150px', right: '150px'}

Thanks, that work´s, but it´s nit the best solution. Another way that I´ve found is to put the content into another div width 100% of height and 265px of width, then force the content to float right and it´s positioned the way i want.
But then I have the problem, that I can´t close the box above and under the "real" content of the box.
How can I trigger the close click for that?

Honestly if you're manually positioning the div then lightbox_me probably isn't what you need, as lightbox_me's code is mostly dedicated to figuring out the position for you.

Maybe you´re right, I´m thinking of using another one. But you did really a good job, it´s working fine (except the positioning )_; )

Depending on your jQuery & CSS knowledge you may not need a plugin at all. Just set your modal to position: absolute, put it as a direct descendant of and position it manually.

I may make a modification to lightbox_me to allow you to completely manually position the modal in the future. Thanks for the feedback.
