I use Webshim polyfill to guide a user step by step through parts of a form. A date input is hidden at page load style="display: none;". It's width is specified in percentage. Webshim sets the width of the input wrapper element (that is shown instead of the actual date input) at page load to a fixed width. It does not update the width of the wrapper element when it is shown $('#initiallyHidden').show();. But it updates the width if the user resizes the window. How can I trigger the update manually? Is it possible to trigger the update automatically on show?

webshim.activeLang('de');
webshims.setOptions('forms-ext', {
  replaceUI: true
});
webshims.polyfill();
webshims.cfg.no$Switch = true;

$('#showHiddenInput').click(function () {
  $('#initiallyHidden').show();
});
.full-width {
  width: 100%;
}
