we don't need a margin at the bottom of tables in general. not sure why
this is even a thing in bootstrap. this change, in particular, makes the
space between a table and a parent card symmetric on all sides.
this change tries to achieve a pleasing look of input forms by
right-aligning the texts of labels. the input form now looks similar
to a table, achieving a cleaner look, especially for forms where the
labels have varying text lenghts.
long forms, when scrolled to the bottom, would leave no space between
the bottom of the viewport and the buttons, which is unpleasent.
short views would still createa large (high) body, for apparently no
reason.
the top border of the card was breaking the design of the tabs, where
the active tab would be "visually connected" to the content. also, the
rounded border at the top did not blend in with the navbar's bottom
border.
on a desktop browser, this approach allows to display all categories at
once. we also increase readability as the values are much closer to
their label. previously, the values were far to the right of the screen
and it was unpleasent to read which value belonged to which setting. the
grouping of values per category was also not very well conceived.
by using cards, we also avoid some styling issues, namely the use of
rowspan, which caused a spurious table cell border at the end of the old
table layout.
* remove empty container for device profile links. if a device profile
has no links, no buttons are generated, but a row was still part of
the DOM, adding spurious space between the select and the alert with
the hint.
* "float" the buttons to the right, as we always place these kinds of
buttons to the right.
the total cards have been trimmed at the bottom as the card's last child
has its margin-bottom removed (set to "auto"). that is desired as it
places the text in the middle of the cards. however, the battery total
cards are different, as they show two values each, which are arranged by
div.flex-fill containers, which are the children of the cards rather
than the h2 tags as in all other totals cards.
avoids inline style and removes right padding such that the value and
its unit move closed together, replicating the design of the inverter
channel info tables.
in the settings view we hide the "login with cert" setting while TLS is
disabled, so we should also hide that info in the info view when TLS is
disabled.
if we hide elements (which is done using style="display:none;"), they
are still part of the DOM and mess with CSS rules that shall apply to
the last element of a card or the last row of a table.
if the last child in a card (div.card > div.card-body) adds bottom
marging, we don't want the card to add more space through its
padding-bottom. most cards have children that add sufficient space
at the bottom anyways.
avoid hidden (but existing) or simply redundant DOM elements from
messing with the style sheet, which uses :last-child in particular to
fix up the margin on the bottom of cards.
when using v-if on a div element, the div will be part of the DOM in
case the condition is true. if we group elements to use v-if on the
group, we shall use a template element, so the group elements appear
as siblings of the other elements.
in particular, these spurious div do not mess up our CSS patch that sets
the bottom margin for the last child in a card to "auto".
it would be nice to have this in the header of the accordion, which is
hard, but doable. however, clicking the button then also toggles the
accordion, which is unacceptable. preventing that seems non-trivial, as
the @click.stop() is not enough. also, nesting interactive elements is
simply bad practice. the button can also go to the right of header, with
reasonable effort, but the corner radii are then messed up and would
need to react interactively (accordion collapsed or not), which is also
a pain.
we now "float" the reset button to the right, add a nice icon, and give
the button some space so it at least looks like it belongs there.
the cards in all information views still used a div.card-body around the
table, which added a margin on all sides of the table. to achieve a
unified look, these cards and tables now look the same as the inverter
channel cards.
