Solved: How to align Submit Button with other Inputs?

ManyQuestions · ‎09-12-2023

So I'm working to implement a clear buttons filter on a simple XML dashboard. I'm unable to do any custom java script so I've been doing all of it within the XML. I have the functionally I'm looking for utilizing a link list input with condition changes to unset the tokens to the default but having issues with my submit button lining back up. No matter what I seem to do I can't get the submit button to come in line with the Clear Filters "button".

If anyone could help me with getting the Submit button in line with my link list input that would be grealtly appreciated. I've have some instance agnostic XML code below so you can see what I'm talking about.

Thanks!

<form theme="dark">
  <label>Clear Filters</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="true">
    <input type="multiselect" token="Choice">
      <label>Choices</label>
      <choice value="*">All</choice>
      <choice value="Choice 1">Choice 1</choice>
      <choice value="Choice 2">Choice 2</choice>
      <choice value="Choice 3">Choice 3</choice>
      <default>*</default>
      <initialValue>*</initialValue>
    </input>
    <input type="link" token="Clearer" searchWhenChanged="true" id="list">
      <label></label>
      <choice value="Clear">Clear Filters</choice>
      <change>
        <condition value="Clear">
          <unset token="form.Choice"></unset>
          <unset token="form.Clearer"></unset>
        </condition>
      </change>
    </input>
    <html>
        <style>
          #list button{
          color: white;
          background: green;
          width:50%;
          display: inline-block;
           }

        </style>
      </html>
  </fieldset>

Found the solution the HTML styling for the link list input being placed in the fieldset is what caused the submit button to move down. Moving the styling into a random search panel allowed the submit button to line back up.

<form theme="dark">
  <label>Clear Filters</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="true">
    <input type="multiselect" token="Choice">
      <label>Choices</label>
      <choice value="*">All</choice>
      <choice value="Choice 1">Choice 1</choice>
      <choice value="Choice 2">Choice 2</choice>
      <choice value="Choice 3">Choice 3</choice>
      <default>*</default>
      <initialValue>*</initialValue>
    </input>
    <input type="link" token="Clearer" searchWhenChanged="true" id="list">
      <label></label>
      <choice value="Clear">Clear Filters</choice>
      <change>
        <condition value="Clear">
          <unset token="form.Choice"></unset>
          <unset token="form.Clearer"></unset>
        </condition>
      </change>
    </input>
