Oracle Fusion Middleware Tag Reference for Oracle ADF Faces 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.7.2) E12419-11 |
UIComponent class: oracle.adf.view.rich.component.rich.layout.RichPanelDrawer
Component type: oracle.adf.RichPanelDrawer
The panelDrawer control can be used to display a group of showDetailItems. Drawer "handles", aka tabs, represent the showDetailItem children. Selecting a tab/handle opens the drawer and displays the associated showDetailItem. Whether a drawer is open is controlled by the disclosed attribute on the showDetailItem children. If none of the children are disclosed, the drawer is "closed" and it's normally shown as attached to the side of a container. Typically you would put one or more showDetailItem components inside of the panelDrawer but you may also alternatively place a facetRef, group, iterator, or switcher inside of the panelDrawer as long as these wrappers provide showDetailItem components as a result of their execution.
In some cases you must provide a height and width for the drawer. Please read the geometry management section for more info.
PanelDrawer has some limitations. The panelDrawer should not be nested one inside the other. Also, the panelDrawer uses a transparent popup, therefore there may be limitations as to what it can open over as some content may "bleed" through. For example it may not be able to open over pdf's in the page.
The following is an example of panelDrawer.

Type | Phases | Description |
---|---|---|
org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.event.AttributeChangeEvent | Invoke Application, Apply Request Values |
Event delivered to describe an attribute change. Attribute change events are not delivered for any programmatic change to a property. They are only delivered when a renderer changes a property without the application's specific request. An example of an attribute change events might include the width of a column that supported client-side resizing. |
Name | Type | Supports EL? | Description |
---|---|---|---|
alignId | String | Yes | The id of the component the drawer should align to. This is necessary because sometimes the drawer cannot be the direct child of the component it is meant to align to, but in general the drawer should be as close a descendent of the align component as possible. If alignId is not set the default is the drawer's parent. |
attributeChangeListener | javax.el.MethodExpression | Only EL | a method reference to an attribute change listener. Attribute change events are not delivered for any programmatic change to a property. They are only delivered when a renderer changes a property without the application's specific request. An example of an attribute change events might include the width of a column that supported client-side resizing. |
binding | oracle.adf.view.rich.component.rich.layout.RichPanelDrawer | Only EL | an EL reference that will store the component instance on a bean. This can be used to give programmatic access to a component from a backing bean, or to move creation of the component to a backing bean. |
clientComponent | boolean | Yes | whether a client-side component will be generated. A component may be generated whether or not this flag is set, but if client Javascript requires the component object, this must be set to true to guarantee the component's presence. Client component objects that are generated today by default may not be present in the future; setting this flag is the only way to guarantee a component's presence, and clients cannot rely on implicit behavior. However, there is a performance cost to setting this flag, so clients should avoid turning on client components unless absolutely necessary. |
contentDelivery | String | Yes | Valid Values: immediate, lazyUncached This property is not currently supported for general use, and is intended to remain in its default lazyUncached state. It is currently only used when the page is rendered in attachment mode, and the contentDelivery is forced to an immediate setting. Determines whether content is delivered with the initial page. When contentDelivery is "immediate", tab content is inlined into the initial page. By default, contentDelivery is lazyUncached. |
customizationId | String | Yes | This attribute is deprecated. The 'id' attribute should be used when applying persistent customizations. This attribute will be removed in the next release. |
height | String | Yes | Specifies a candidate for the height of the drawer:
If you don't set a value, the height will be driven off the content of the drawer |
id | String | No | the identifier for the component. The identifier must follow a subset of the syntax allowed in HTML:
|
inlineStyle | String | Yes | the CSS styles to use for this component. This is intended for basic style changes. The inlineStyle is a set of CSS styles that are applied to the root DOM element of the component. If the inlineStyle's CSS properties do not affect the DOM element you want affected, then you will have to create a skin and use the skinning keys which are meant to target particular DOM elements, like ::label or ::icon-style. |
maximumHeight | String | Yes | Specifies a candidate for the maximum height of the drawer:
If you don't set a value, the maximumHeight will default to 100%. |
maximumWidth | String | Yes | Specifies a candidate for the maximum width of the drawer:
If you don't set a value, the maximumWidth will default to 100%. |
partialTriggers | String[] | Yes | the IDs of the components that should trigger a partial update. This component will listen on the trigger components. If one of the trigger components receives an event that will cause it to update in some way, this component will request to be updated too. Identifiers are relative to the source component (this component), and must account for NamingContainers. If your component is already inside of a naming container, you can use a single colon to start the search from the root of the page, or multiple colons to move up through the NamingContainers - "::" will pop out of the component's naming container (or itself if the component is a naming container) and begin the search from there, ":::" will pop out of two naming containers (including itself if the component is a naming container) and begin the search from there, etc. |
position | String | Yes | Valid Values: start, end, left, right the position of the drawer relative to the container it's aligning to. Defaults to "end". When using right/left the position will remain right or left regardless of the language, for example it will remain right or left even in right to left languages like Hebrew and Arabic. Use start/end if the alignment should change depending on the language. |
rendered | boolean | Yes | whether the component is rendered. When set to false, no output will be delivered for this component (the component will not in any way be rendered, and cannot be made visible on the client). If you want to change a component's rendered attribute from false to true using PPR, set the partialTrigger attribute of its parent component so the parent refreshes and in turn will render this component. |
shortDesc | String | Yes | the short description of the component. This text is commonly used by user agents to display tooltip help text, in which case the behavior for the tooltip is controlled by the user agent, e.g. Firefox 2 truncates long tooltips. For form components, the shortDesc is displayed in a note window. For components that support the helpTopicId attribute it is recommended that helpTopicId is used as it is more flexible and is more accessibility-compliant. |
showHandles | String | Yes | Valid Values: always, whenOpen Allows control over whether to show the tab handle(s). When the handles attribute is set to "whenOpen" then the handles aren't shown when the drawer is closed, and the app developer must programatically open the drawer by setting the "disclosed" attribute to "true" on one of the showDetailItems. |
styleClass | String | Yes | a CSS style class to use for this component. The style class can be defined in your jspx page or in a skinning CSS file, for example, or you can use one of our public style classes, like 'AFInstructionText'. |
unsecure | java.util.Set | Yes | A whitespace separated list of attributes whose values ordinarily can be set only on the server, but need to be settable on the client. Currently, this is supported only for the "disabled" attribute. |
visible | boolean | Yes | the visibility of the component. If it is "false", the component will be hidden on the client. Unlike "rendered", this does not affect the lifecycle on the server - the component may have its bindings executed, etc. - and the visibility of the component can be toggled on and off on the client, or toggled with PPR. When "rendered" is false, the component will not in any way be rendered, and cannot be made visible on the client. In most cases, use the "rendered" property instead of the "visible" property. Not supported on the following renderkits: org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.core |
width | String | Yes | Specifies a candidate for the width of the drawer:
If you don't set a value, the width will be driven off the content of the drawer |
