Examples of opening programmatically other than touch swipe?

[bluematter]

Instead of using touch swipe how can I use 2 different selectors to open/close one opening and the other selector closing?

[artberri]

// An example for opening:
$('#open-button').click(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    $.sidr('open', 'sidr-name');
});

// An example for closing:
$('#close-button').click(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    $.sidr('close', 'sidr-name');
});

;)

Ok thanks, simple like I thought. That creates a better user experience..

If you're willing, how would I write it to close at a pixel point of the page scroll?

Ex. scrolling 800 px down it closes? Man I need to pick up a book on jquery... Thanks though this is awesome and am using it in a theme, will show some love and give credit to you.

This worked perfect for me, but the content inside the menu does not show, do I need to add something?

[artberri]

For the first question:

$(window).scroll(function() {
    if($(window).scrollTop() > 800) {
        $.sidr('close', 'sidr-name');
    }
});

For the second... did you write correctly the sidr name?

[bluematter]

Wow brilliant my man! You're right I didn't realize how important the name was, and didn't realize the name needed to be the ID.

I just bought the jQuery Cookbook by oreilly, bout to get into it ASAP...

The sidr on the theme looks great!!

Thanks a million

@artberri Hi, I used your code to close sidr when scrolling up however sidr doesn't close (minimize to the left) it just disappears and leaves a empty space on the left side of the screen?

Any ideas? Thanks!
