I have a project where I want a div to appear as a large box and three more to appear underneath as smaller boxes and when you click a smaller box, it switches sizes and places with the large box using css transitions to make the movement and size change smooth. Right now I'm attempting to use jQuery and the positioning is not working at all. Here's an example of what I have so far:
https://jsfiddle.net/v3pmhawj/1/
$(function () {
let { left: x1, top: y1 } = $('.full-size-card').offset()
$('.inactive-sheets .card').on('click', function() {
let { left: x2, top: y2 } = $(this).offset()
let curr = $('.full-size-card')
let diffX = x2 - x1
let diffY = y2 - y1
$(this).css({
left: -diffX,
top: -diffY
})
$(this).addClass('full-size-card')
curr.css({
left: diffX,
top: diffY
})
curr.removeClass('full-size-card')
})
})
If anyone has suggestions on ways that involve other libraries or other techniques, I'm all ears. I'd like to be able to move the divs around in the DOM as well but as far as I can tell, you can't css-transition them if you do that since the only way (I know of) is to delete and re-add a copy of the element where you want it in the DOM.
