💡 How to Use

🧩 In nicegui_extras.utils

Right-to-left Persian layout

farsi_rtl()  # enables RTL and Vazir font automatically

Disable page scrolling

from nicegui_extras.utils import no_scroll

no_scroll()  # disables scrolling on page

---

🎨 In nicegui_extras.style

Link as button

from nicegui_extras.style import link_button

def link_button(text: str, url: str, new_tab: bool = False):
    """Create a link styled as a button."""
    classes = 'q-btn q-btn-item non-selectable no-outline q-btn--flat q-btn--rectangle'
    return ui.link(text, url, new_tab=new_tab).classes(classes)

Usage:

link_button('Visit Site', 'https://nicegui.io', new_tab=True)

---

💬 Animated dialog (CSS class)

For now, you can use this class directly to make a dialog animated and blurred:

animated_dialog = 'backdrop-filter="blur(8px) brightness(20%)"'

Example:

ui.dialog().props(animated_dialog)

📌 Sticky Menu Row

To create a sticky top menu that stays fixed at the top of the page and keeps content visible below it, use the following helper:

from nicegui_extras.layout import menu_row

with menu_row(side='left', height='70px'):
    ui.button('Home')
    ui.button('Docs')
    ui.button('GitHub')
    
ui.label('Page content starts here...')

This will create a top menu bar that:

• stays fixed when scrolling
• aligns all items from the left side
• automatically adds margin so that other elements do not overlap with the menu

🧠 Example App

from nicegui import ui
from nicegui_extras.utils import farsi_rtl, no_scroll
from nicegui_extras.style import link_button, menu_row

farsi_rtl()
no_scroll()

with ui.row().style(menu_row):
    ui.label('Main Menu')

link_button('Home', '/home')

ui.run()
