Is there a good way to embed a cosmoscope?

[ghost]

Which part of Cosma is your request about?

• [ ] command-line interface
• [X] cosmoscope (HTML file)
• [ ] documentation
• [ ] other

Describe your request:

I tried displaying it in an iframe, and that works, but the layout is ill suited for it. I wish I could just embed the main graph part and hide the controls. Is there a way to do that? Or something similar (like deleting parts of the cosmoscope.html file)?

This is a SUPER cool tool. Way to go Cosma team.

Thanks!

@certainlyNotHeisenberg An immediate, easy solution: you can use custom CSS to permanently hide things.

• First create a CSS file, you can name it however you want, e.g. styles.css.
• In the file, add declarations where you select things you want to hide. If you want to hide the left panel (Menu) and graph controls:

aside#menu-container,
button#close-left-side,
div.graph-controls {
  display: none;
}

or the left panel and its button but keep the graph controls:

aside#menu-container,
button#close-left-side {
  display: none;
}
div.graph-controls {
  left: 4rem;
}

• In your config.yml, add the path to that file:

css_custom: styles.css

• Run cosma modelize --custom-css.

But this gets me thinking: we could add an option to have the Menu panel hidden by default, something like this:

hide_menu_by_default: true

This would allow you to embed a cosmoscope with the Menu hidden but still have the option to quickly toggle it if needed.

Anyway, tell me if this helps!
