nuxt ui make popover content full screen width on mobile like modal

How should i go about making the Upopover component responsive on mobile currently i did this on the #content section of it " <template #content> <div class="flex flex-col w-[450px]">' which is what i want on desktop or as the max width. buton mobile it should max out at the screen width like the modal component does

Hi @WiFi Plug. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To make the content of the UPopover component full screen width on mobile (similar to how the UModal behaves), you should apply responsive utility classes to the container inside your popover's content slot. The Nuxt UI Modal uses classes like w-[calc(100vw-2rem)] max-w-lg for its content width, and you can mimic this approach for your popover content on mobile devices. Here's how you can do it:
<template>
<UPopover>
<UButton label="Open" color="neutral" variant="subtle" />

<template #content>
<div class="w-full max-w-[450px] sm:w-[450px]">
<!-- Your popover content here -->
</div>
</template>
</UPopover>
</template>
<template>
<UPopover>
<UButton label="Open" color="neutral" variant="subtle" />

<template #content>
<div class="w-full max-w-[450px] sm:w-[450px]">
<!-- Your popover content here -->
</div>
</template>
</UPopover>
</template>
Explanation: - w-full ensures the content takes the full width of the viewport on mobile. - max-w-[450px] (or your preferred max width) keeps the content constrained on larger screens. - sm:w-[450px] applies the fixed width from the sm breakpoint upwards, matching your desktop design. This approach is consistent with how the modal component handles responsive widths, as seen in its theme configuration:
w-[calc(100vw-2rem)] max-w-lg for mobile, and a constrained width for larger screens Modal Theme. If you want the popover to have the exact same behavior as the modal, you can use similar classes:
<div class="w-[calc(100vw-2rem)] max-w-lg sm:w-[450px]">
<!-- Content -->
</div>
<div class="w-[calc(100vw-2rem)] max-w-lg sm:w-[450px]">
<!-- Content -->
</div>
Adjust the breakpoints and max widths as needed for your design. Note:
The knowledge sources do not mention a built-in prop for UPopover to automatically handle this, so you need to handle the responsive width with utility classes in your slot content Popover Usage. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai Do you know why all my nuxt icons take a split second to load when im clicking say dropdowns it takes half a second for the icons to be visible? is that standard, is there a way to improve it to load faster or pre load?

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- The slight delay you’re seeing when Nuxt UI icons appear (such as in dropdowns) is usually due to the fact that icons are loaded asynchronously from the Iconify dataset or a remote CDN by default. This can cause a visible lag, especially on first load or if the icon set hasn’t been cached yet. This is not strictly "standard," but it is a common experience when icons are not bundled or preloaded. How to improve icon loading speed: 1. Install Iconify collections locally:
It’s highly recommended to install the icon data locally (e.g., @iconify-json/lucide for Lucide icons). This way, icons are served from your own server or static output, making them load much faster and more reliably, both on SSR and client-side.
Example:
npm install @iconify-json/lucide

npm install @iconify-json/lucide

This approach is documented as the best practice for Nuxt UI icons Iconify Dataset. 2. Preload icons:
While there isn’t a built-in Nuxt UI prop to "preload" icons, serving them locally as above is the most effective way to ensure they are available instantly. There is no mention in the knowledge sources of a utility to manually preload icons in the same way you can preload route components or images. 3. Bundle icons with your app:
By installing the icon collections and referencing them in your config, you ensure they are included in your build output, reducing the need for runtime fetching. Summary:
The delay is due to icons being loaded asynchronously, often from a remote source. To fix this, install the icon collections locally and reference them in your Nuxt config. This will make icon loading nearly instant and improve the perceived performance of your UI Iconify Dataset. If you need further optimization, ensure you are not using SSR: false, as that can also affect how assets are loaded and optimized. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai if i use a few different icon sets will that significantly impact performance or will it only bundle the icons from that set that i use?

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- If you use a few different icon sets in your Nuxt UI project, only the icons you actually use in your code will be bundled, not the entire icon sets. This is because Nuxt UI (and the underlying Iconify integration) leverages tree-shaking and only includes the specific icons referenced in your templates or components. This approach helps keep your bundle size minimal, even if you import from multiple icon sets. However, it's important to note that if you use dynamic icon names (e.g., computed or constructed at runtime), those icons may not be detected and bundled, which could lead to missing icons or require them to be loaded asynchronously at runtime. For best performance, use static icon names whenever possible Nuxt v-bind not working with NuxtUI icons and util file. To further optimize performance, it's recommended to install the icon collections you use locally, so they are served from your own server and not fetched from a CDN at runtime Iconify Dataset. In summary:
Using multiple icon sets will not significantly impact performance as long as you only use static icon names; only the icons you use will be bundled. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai Ulink how do i make it not be highlighted when the route is active?
kapa.ai
kapa.ai7mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To make a ULink not be highlighted when the route is active, you can use the raw prop and control the styling yourself with the active-class and inactive-class props. By setting active-class to an empty string (or a class that does not apply highlighting), the link will not show the default active highlight when the route is active. Example:
<ULink
raw
to="/your-route"
active-class=""
inactive-class="text-muted"
>
Link
</ULink>
<ULink
raw
to="/your-route"
active-class=""
inactive-class="text-muted"
>
Link
</ULink>
This disables the default active styling. You can also provide your own custom classes as needed ULink Style. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
