customizing pluto themes

[infominer]

Hello.

I'm using the blank template as the basis for my explorations into css...  Although I must say, I've found it difficult to improve upon.. some changes are imperceptible, others cause unexpected side effects :)

One problem I found was when I tried 16px font size for the feed items, it caused some overflow issues... where I can scroll left and right, sometimes a lot if a long line didn't wrap properly...

I saved a copy for example:

I can live with 14px font, I suppose.. it's just a bit perplexing to me.. css is crazy.

One thing I've been really curious about, is it possible to make snippets view default?

---Thanks for all your awesome work!

I'm realizing I've been bumping into it quite a lot over the past few years.

Hello,
As always thanks for posting your updates, examples and

A quick and dirty way is to add at the end in js/blank.js:

$(document).ready( function() {
...
showSnippets();
}

A more "clean" way is to change the blank.css / scss - and remove
the display: none

.item-snippet {
display: none; // hide on startup
}

from .item-snippet and add add a new rule

.item-content {
display: none;
}

Note - that - sorry - that's just a sketch - that is, untested but
should give you the idea. Don't be afraid to break things :-).
Cheers. Prost.

Yes!

moving display none from item-snippet over to item-content works perfectly!

.item-snippet {
}
 
 .item-content {
  display: none;
}

Thanks for all the pointers!
