please see attached

i would like to be able to see the entire number in the header section
also should point out this is an hd screen, not a skinny monitor

how can i fix this?

also in the new software there is now a print button do we have to create a new style guide for this to work?

thanks in advance

    hello

    if you want, we can remove the part on the left of the "totals" (which is intended for graphics), this way you'll have more room for the numbers.
    I would need joomla and FTP access to do that.

    the print button should simply open a new page with no template styles, so you can print directly...

    Thanks for the quick reply Germinal

    I bought content statistics previously, but was unable to figure out how to make the graphics work, so I forgot about it.
    It is installed on the server also
    preferably I would rather have the graphics and the entire number display... is this not a possibility?

    I should also point out that 6 figures is not a lot of space before cutting off the display... just think of currencies that have lower value then the Euro/Dollar you could fill up this space in a couple invoices....

    Would there be a way to add a conditional css class to the titles, if they are longer than a certain amount of characters or something to that effect?

    well it's not that is not a possibility, it's that having space for 6 graphics plus 6 totals takes a lot of space...
    we can of course make the font much smaller but it won't look as nice.

    if i change the font-size to 20px it displays fine so I will change it to that

    seeing as we are discussing this
    I tried to run on the content statistics component again, and every time I load the module in the backend (as shown in your documentation)
    it crashes the entire page

    when i run the debug, i see error trying to access NULL data

    would you be able to help me get that module working?
    ideally i would get all 6 graphics working

    sure, but you need the newest version of Content Statistics to make it work with the newest version of Invoice Manager (which you are currently running..)

    Hi Russell & Germinal,
    I am having same problem with my total. It cuts the end off just like your explained. How do I resolve this issue?

    @Russell where did you reduce the text size to 20px? I checked the css file but could not locate the right place

    @Germinal. thanks for your response. I have changed the '.summary-number' in the css file to 20px but that did not resolve the problem.

    Can you please advice if i am changing the correct section of the file?

    @Germinal i was able to identify the section; the changes where not reflecting before because of cache.
    This method however did not resolve the problem. When the invoice manager side menu is collapsed, the headers show fine however, when i expand the menu, i still run into same problem.

    How can this be resolved?

    My solution is probably not endorsed by Germinal 8)

    Most people don't realize this, but the template override system works in the Joomla Admin as well as the front facing template.
    So when ever I get a component that requires custom css, I simply add a template override in the /adminstrator/templates/isis/html directory

    In this case I added a custom id to the page wrapper and manually added a command in the template override.

    @Germinal, when i reduced the font size, the text was too small and defeats the purpose of having the dashboard. is it possible to remove one of the boxes (sub total)?

    @Rusell, do you mind sharing a guide with me on how to achieve your solution?

    hi

    the best way in this case is just to get ride of the space on the left, which is intended for stats modules (which you don't have)

    if you want to send me FTP access, I'll be glad to make the necessary code adjustments.

    Hi kolaogunnaike,
    This is not really the forum to teach people how to do template overrides.

    Germinal's support is top notch and his direction should be considered the correct one for his software.

    However, to help a fellow Joomla! user out I will try to help explain one of the most powerful tools Joomla offers, the template override.


    Basically you are able to override the HTML output of any Component, Module or Plugin by creating a new version of the output in the Joomla /templates/{yourtemplatedirectory}/html

    This allows you to make any piece of software installed on your site look and feel how you want, and this avoids having to hack any software.

    Here is a list of tutorials to help you understand better.

    https://www.ostraining.com/blog/joomla/list-of-ostraining-resources-on-joomla-teamplate-overrides/


    What I was explaining above, is that in more recent versions of Joomla, we have been given the same capability in the /administrator section where you can now override the out put of any backend Component, Module or Plugin --> Very handy indeed. 8)

    To do an override in the admin area, you need add your overrides here
    /administrator/templates/{youradmintemplatedirectory}/html

    PS Been using Joomla That software for years -great scripts Germinal
