Method Detail

getGrid

public Grid getGrid()

Returns the grid that it belongs to.

It is the same as AbstractComponent.getParent().

setColumnshide

public void setColumnshide(boolean columnshide)

Sets whether to enable hiding of columns with the header context menu.

Note that it is only applied when getMenupopup() is auto.

Since:

3.5.0

isColumnshide

public boolean isColumnshide()

Returns whether to enable hiding of columns with the header context menu.

Default: true.

Since:

3.5.0

setColumnsgroup

public void setColumnsgroup(boolean columnsgroup)

Sets whether to enable grouping of columns with the header context menu.

Note that it is only applied when getMenupopup() is auto.

Since:

3.5.0

isColumnsgroup

public boolean isColumnsgroup()

Returns whether to enable grouping of columns with the header context menu.

Default: true.

Since:

3.5.0

getMenupopup

public java.lang.String getMenupopup()

Returns the ID of the Menupopup (Menupopup) that should appear when the user clicks on the element.

Default: none (a default menupopup).

Since:

3.5.0

setMenupopup

public void setMenupopup(java.lang.String mpop)

Sets the ID of the menupopup (Menupopup) that should appear when the user clicks on the element of each column.

An onOpen event is sent to the popup menu if it is going to appear. Therefore, developers can manipulate it dynamically (perhaps based on OpenEvent.getReference) by listening to the onOpen event.

Note: To simplify the use, it ignores the ID space when locating the component at the client. In other words, it searches for the first component with the specified ID, no matter it is in the same ID space or not.

If there are two components with the same ID (of course, in different ID spaces), you can specify the UUID with the following format:
uuid(comp_uuid)

Parameters:

mpop - an ID of the menupopup component, "none", or "auto". "none" is assumed by default, "auto" means the menupopup component is created automatically.

Since:

3.5.0

See Also:

setMenupopup(String)

renderProperties

protected void renderProperties(ContentRenderer renderer)
                         throws java.io.IOException

Description copied from class: HtmlBasedComponent

Renders the content of this component, excluding the enclosing tags and children.

See also ZK Client-side Reference: Property Rendering

Overrides:

renderProperties in class HeadersElement

Throws:

java.io.IOException

getValue

public <T> T getValue()

Returns the value.

Default: null.

Note: the value is application dependent, you can place whatever value you want.

Since:

3.6.0

setValue

public <T> void setValue(T value)

Sets the value.

Parameters:

value - the value.

Note: the value is application dependent, you can place whatever value you want.

Since:

3.6.0

setWidth

public void setWidth(java.lang.String width)

Deprecated. as of release 6.0.0. To control the size of Grid related components, please refer to Grid and Column instead.

Description copied from class: HtmlBasedComponent

Sets the width. If null, the best fit is used.

Overrides:

setWidth in class HtmlBasedComponent

See Also:

HtmlBasedComponent.setWidthDirectly(java.lang.String), AbstractComponent.disableClientUpdate(boolean)

setHflex

public void setHflex(java.lang.String flex)

Deprecated. as of release 6.0.0. To control the size of Grid related components, please refer to Grid and Column instead.

Description copied from class: HtmlBasedComponent

Sets horizontal flex hint of this component.

Number flex indicates how this component's container distributes remaining empty space among its children horizontally. Flexible component grow and shrink to fit their given space. Flexible components with larger flex values will be made larger than components with lower flex values, at the ratio determined by all flexible components. The actual flex value is not relevant unless there are other flexible components within the same container. Once the default sizes of components in a container are calculated, the remaining space in the container is divided among the flexible components, according to their flex ratios.

Specify a flex value of negative value, 0, or "false" has the same effect as leaving the flex attribute out entirely. Specify a flex value of "true" has the same effect as a flex value of 1.

Special flex hint, "min", indicates that the minimum space shall be given to this flexible component to enclose all of its children components. That is, the flexible component grow and shrink to fit its children components.

Overrides:

setHflex in class HtmlBasedComponent

Parameters:

flex - horizontal flex hint of this component.

See Also:

HtmlBasedComponent.setVflex(java.lang.String), HtmlBasedComponent.getHflex()

getZclass

public java.lang.String getZclass()

Description copied from class: HtmlBasedComponent

Returns the ZK Cascading Style class(es) for this component. It usually depends on the implementation of the mold (AbstractComponent.getMold()).

Default: null (the default value depends on element).

HtmlBasedComponent.setZclass(java.lang.String)) will completely replace the default style of a component. In other words, the default style of a component is associated with the default value of HtmlBasedComponent.getZclass(). Once it is changed, the default style won't be applied at all. If you want to perform small adjustments, use HtmlBasedComponent.setSclass(java.lang.String) instead.

Overrides:

getZclass in class HtmlBasedComponent

See Also:

HtmlBasedComponent.getSclass()

beforeParentChanged

public void beforeParentChanged(Component parent)

Description copied from class: AbstractComponent

Default: does nothing.

Specified by:

beforeParentChanged in interface ComponentCtrl

Overrides:

beforeParentChanged in class AbstractComponent

Parameters:

parent - the new parent. If null, it means detachment.

See Also:

ComponentCtrl.beforeParentChanged(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component)

beforeChildAdded

public void beforeChildAdded(Component child,
                             Component refChild)

Description copied from class: AbstractComponent

Default: does nothing.

Specified by:

beforeChildAdded in interface ComponentCtrl

Overrides:

beforeChildAdded in class AbstractComponent

Parameters:

child - the child to be added (never null).

refChild - another child component that the new child will be inserted before it. If null, the new child will be the last child.
