Menu problems

W.W. Webster

I've migrated and unveiled on the Turbo theme. I've noticed that, having set my menu alignment to 'centered', this setting applies correctly to the first level menu but not to the flyouts. There don't seem to be other alignment settings for other menu levels. This appears to be a bug.

My bigger problem, however, is that my flyout menu can extend off the screen for users who have smaller (but typically-sized) screens. These users cannot access the offscreen menu options (above and below the visible menu). I could be forced to reduce my second- and subsequent-level menus to just a few options, but this is impractical and defeats the purpose. In addition, I cannot know the screen size for any visitor. The flyout function doesn't appear to even try to fit the flyout on the screen, but will push it off the top even (for example) when there is room beneath. Shouldn't the flyout menus scroll if necessary?

Comments and advice very welcome, please!

On legacy a class could of been assigned to the right side main button flyouts and so they came
out to the left of the drop and not fall outside the page.

I had no problem on my legacy site with the same menu structure, content, and look and feel!

This in "entire site" CSS should decrease the flyout height.

.yui3-menu-item>.yui3-menu-label {
  padding: [COLOR="Red"]1px[/COLOR] 46px [COLOR="Red"]1px [/COLOR]22px;
  border-width: 0 0 1px;
  border-style: solid;
}

Mainly it's the top/bottom padding.

Thanks Allen, I've implemented that and it will certainly minimise occurrences of the problem - albeit in a less pleasing way than if the sub-menu would scroll if necessary and/or, better still, did not extend either fully up or fully down from the flyout point but extended intelligently across the height of the window.

Do you have thoughts on the alignment problem? Is there a CSS solution that will carry over the alignment at one level into subsequent levels? Or should I wait for SmugMug to fix this?

I don't have a clue with the new code.
