Note: Application logic should not interact with the component's properties or invoke its methods until the BusyContext indicates that the component is ready for interaction.
Slots
JET elements can have up to two types of child content:
- Any child element with a
slotattribute will be moved into that named slot, e.g.<span slot='startIcon'>...</span>. All supported named slots are documented below. Child elements with unsupported named slots will be removed from the DOM. - Any child element lacking a
slotattribute will be moved to the default slot, also known as a regular child.
-
contextMenu
-
The contextMenu slot is set on the
oj-menuwithin this element. This is used to designate the JET Menu that this component should launch as a context menu on right-click, Shift-F10, Press & Hold, or component-specific gesture. If specified, the browser's native context menu will be replaced by the JET Menu specified in this slot.The application can register a listener for the Menu's ojBeforeOpen event. The listener can cancel the launch via event.preventDefault(), or it can customize the menu contents by editing the menu DOM directly, and then calling refresh() on the Menu.
To help determine whether it's appropriate to cancel the launch or customize the menu, the ojBeforeOpen listener can use component API's to determine which table cell, chart item, etc., is the target of the context menu. See the JSDoc and demos of the individual components for details.
Keep in mind that any such logic must work whether the context menu was launched via right-click, Shift-F10, Press & Hold, or component-specific touch gesture.
Example
Initialize the component with a context menu:
<oj-some-element> <-- use the contextMenu slot to designate this as the context menu for this component --> <oj-menu slot="contextMenu" style="display:none" aria-label="Some element's context menu"> ... </oj-menu> </oj-some-element>
Attributes
-
chroming :string
-
Indicates in what states the toolbar's buttons and buttonsets have chrome (background and border).
This option only affects buttons and buttonsets that have never had their own
chromingoption set. This allows individual buttons and buttonsets to opt out of their toolbar's chroming if needed.The default chroming varies by theme. Each theme can set its default by setting
$toolbarChromingOptionDefaultas seen in the example below.Once a value has been set on this option, that value applies regardless of theme.
- Since:
- 1.2.0
Supported Values:
Name Type Description "full"string In typical themes, full-chrome buttons always have chrome. "half"string In typical themes, half-chrome buttons acquire chrome only in their hover, active, and selected states. Half-chroming is recommended for buttons in a toolbar. (This is the toolbar default in most themes.) "outlined"string In typical themes, outlined buttons are similar to half-chrome buttons, but have a border in the default state. * @example Initialize the Toolbar with the <oj-toolbar chroming='half'></oj-toolbar>chromingattribute specified:Names
Item Name Property chromingProperty change event chromingChangedProperty change listener attribute (must be of type function) on-chroming-changedExamples
Get or set the
chromingproperty after initialization:// getter var chromingValue = myToolbar.chroming; // setter myToolbar.chroming = 'half';Set the default in the theme (SCSS) :
$toolbarChromingOptionDefault: half !default; -
translations :Object|null
-
A collection of translated resources from the translation bundle, or
nullif this component has no resources. Resources may be accessed and overridden individually or collectively, as seen in the examples.If the component does not contain any translatable resource, the default value of this attribute will be
null. If not, an object containing all resources relevant to the component.If this component has translations, their documentation immediately follows this doc entry.
Names
Item Name Property translationsProperty change event translationsChangedProperty change listener attribute (must be of type function) on-translations-changedExamples
Initialize the component, overriding some translated resources and leaving the others intact:
<!-- Using dot notation --> <oj-some-element translations.some-key='some value' translations.some-other-key='some other value'></oj-some-element> <!-- Using JSON notation --> <oj-some-element translations='{"someKey":"some value", "someOtherKey":"some other value"}'></oj-some-element>Get or set the
translationsproperty after initialization:// Get one var value = myComponent.translations.someKey; // Set one, leaving the others intact. Always use the setProperty API for // subproperties rather than setting a subproperty directly. myComponent.setProperty('translations.someKey', 'some value'); // Get all var values = myComponent.translations; // Set all. Must list every resource key, as those not listed are lost. myComponent.translations = { someKey: 'some value', someOtherKey: 'some other value' };
Methods
-
getProperty(property) → {any}
-
Retrieves a value for a property or a single subproperty for complex properties.
Parameters:
Name Type Description propertystring The property name to get. Supports dot notation for subproperty access. - Since:
- 4.0.0
Returns:
- Type
- any
Example
Get a single subproperty of a complex property:
var subpropValue = myComponent.getProperty('complexProperty.subProperty1.subProperty2'); -
refresh() → {void}
-
Refreshes the toolbar, including the following:
- Re-applies focus management / keyboard navigation.
- Rechecks the reading direction (LTR vs. RTL).
A
refresh()is required in the following circumstances:- After buttons or buttonsets are added to, removed from, or reordered within the toolbar.
- After a change to the disabled status of any of the buttons in the toolbar.
- After a programmatic change to the
checkedstatus of a radio button in the toolbar (which should be done via Buttonset's checked option). This applies only to radios, not to checkboxes or push buttons. - After the reading direction (LTR vs. RTL) changes.
Returns:
- Type
- void
Example
Invoke the
refreshmethod:myToolbar.refresh(); -
setProperties(properties) → {void}
-
Performs a batch set of properties.
Parameters:
Name Type Description propertiesObject An object containing the property and value pairs to set. - Since:
- 4.0.0
Returns:
- Type
- void
Example
Set a batch of properties:
myComponent.setProperties({"prop1": "value1", "prop2.subprop": "value2", "prop3": "value3"}); -
setProperty(property, value) → {void}
-
Sets a property or a single subproperty for complex properties and notifies the component of the change, triggering a [property]Changed event.
Parameters:
Name Type Description propertystring The property name to set. Supports dot notation for subproperty access. valueany The new value to set the property to. - Since:
- 4.0.0
Returns:
- Type
- void
Example
Set a single subproperty of a complex property:
myComponent.setProperty('complexProperty.subProperty1.subProperty2', "someValue");
