In this simplified version of a hierarchical diagram, child elements disappear when their parent's size is animated. Is there any way to prevent this?
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<style type="text/css">
div
{
position:absolute;
width:40px;
height: 40px;
background: #f00;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<script language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function (e) {
$('div').hover(function (e) {
e.stopPropagation();
$(e.target).animate({ width: "100px", height: "100px" }, 400).children('p').fadeIn(1000);
}, function (e) {
e.stopPropagation();
$(e.target).animate({ width: "40px", height: "40px" }, 500).children('p').fadeOut(200);
});
});
</script>
<div style="top:50px; left:104px; ">
<div style="top:78px; left:85px; "></div>
<div style="top:78px; left:6px; "></div>
<div style="top:79px; left:-74px; "></div>
<div style="top:78px; left:171px; ">
<div style="top:93px; left:-58px; "></div>
<div style="top:98px; left:8px; "></div>
<div style="top:93px; left:69px; "></div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Based on the answer from David, you can add overflow: visible !important
to your CSS to force the children elements to remain visible.
div
{
position:absolute;
width:40px;
height: 40px;
background: #f00;
overflow: visible !important; /* Superset jQuery#animate() 'overflow:hidden'
}
It works with your example but you might have unwanted result with a more complex HTML tree.
I notice a strange effect if you mouse over a parent then the children: multiple element zoomed at once. Perhaps it is what you want. If not, a better solution might be to change the HTML source to wrap a 'zoomable' content element inside a tree structure formed of divs.
