Styling the Image Reorderer
The Image Reorderer includes default CSS styles that it applies to the thumbnails. The application of styles is based on known class names. The default class names are described below, and can be used by including the Image Reorderer stylesheet:
<link href="components/reorderer/css/imageReorderer.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="all"/>
NOTE that the default class names can be overridden with your own classes using the styles
option: see the Options section above.
Default classes:
   fl-reorderer-movable-default
- This class is applied to thumbnail elements in their default state.
   fl-reorderer-movable-selected
- This class is applied to the thumbnail that has been selected. The selected thumbnail item can be moved using keystrokes.
   fl-reorderer-movable-hover
- This class is applied to thumbnails when the mouse hovers over them.
   fl-reorderer-movable-dragging
- This class is applied to the thumbnail that is currently being moved.
   fl-reorderer-avatar
- This class is applied to the avatar, the image of the thumbnail as it is being dragged about by the mouse.
  fl-reorderer-dropMarker
- This class is applied to the drop target indicator when the mouse is used to drag a thumbnail.
