Table Of Contents

aps/ListSwitcher

Presents objects from a data source in one of two view modes at a time.

The widget defines a pair of containers. In PCP / CCP v1, they are ``aps/Grid`` and ``aps/ActiveList``. In CCP v2, they are ``aps/Grid`` and ``aps/Tiles``. A user can switch from one view mode to another.

Compatibility

All user panels - CP and UX1

Overview

Structure

The aps/ListSwitcher object contains definition of two presentation formats (view modes). It is used to present a collection of objects from a data model in one of these formats at a time as in the following example:

Depending on the control panel version, it is possible to use the following pairs of presentation formats:

Find the nested rules for this widget in the recommended Widget Hierarchy.

Warning

If the number of elements is less or equal the number of columns in aps/ActiveList, then the menu for choosing sorting and view mode will not be visible.

Saving Session State

The aps/ListSwitcher widget stores the view mode and sorting configuration used in the current session. When you open the same screen next time, the saved session state is restored. If you need to open the screen always in a predefined state, you should create needed settings in the screen code by means of the set method.

Public Properties

PROPERTY

TYPE

DEFAULT

DESCRIPTION

disabled

boolean

false

Specifies if the widget will respond to user input.

gridSize

string

undefined

This specifies the widget width that is relevant only for widgets inside Container, FieldSet, or Tiles.

gridView

boolean

false

The display mode.

isBusy

boolean

false

If the widget is busy then this property is true.

labelAttr

string

“”

The source name that is used for the sort operations.

sortDescending

boolean

<strong>false</strong> (Ascending)

Defines the sort direction: true - Descending, false - Ascending.

visible

boolean

true

If this property value is set to true, then the widget is visible.

disabled boolean

Specifies if the widget will respond to user input.

Default value: false.

gridSize string

This specifies the widget width that is relevant only for widgets inside Container, FieldSet, or Tiles. In other cases it will be ignored.

gridSize string contains few options with number values (from 1 to 12) separated by spaces, which specify the grid size of the widget in different layouts:

- md - desktop

- xs - phone

For example, gridSize: “md-4 xs-2”.

All values below 1, e.g. “md-0”, will be replaced with the empty string (“”), values above 12, e.g. “md-14”, will be reduced to 12 (“md-12”).

Default value: undefined.

gridView boolean

The display mode. If the property value is true, the data is displayed as aps/Grid. The default value is false.

isBusy boolean

If the widget is busy then this property is true.

Default value: false.

labelAttr string

The source name that is used for the sort operations. Specifies the field that will be used for sorting in the ``aps/ActiveList`` view mode. Deprecated for CCP v2. Default value: “”.

sortDescending boolean

Defines the sort direction: true - Descending, false - Ascending. Default value: false (Ascending). Deprecated for CCP v2.

visible boolean

If this property value is set to true, then the widget is visible.

Default value: true.

Public Methods

METHOD

RETURN

DESCRIPTION

addChild (child, insertIndex)

undefined

Makes the given widget a child of this widget

cancel ()

object

Sets the isBusy property to false

destroy ()

undefined

Destroys this widget

focus ()

aps/_containerbase
function

Focusing the focusable child

get ()

any

Get a property of the Stateful instance

getChildren ()

array

Returns all direct children of this widget, i

getParents ()

array

Discover and return all parents of the widget

placeAt ()

dijit/_widgetbase
function

Place this widget somewhere in the DOM based on standard dojo/dom-construct::place() conventions

postCreate ()

refresh ()

undefined

Refresh data in widget

removeAll ()

undefined

Remove all children in the widget

removeChild (widget)

undefined

Removes the passed widget instance from this widget and destroys it

reset ()

undefined

Resets the widget

set ()

object
function

Set a property of the Stateful instance

startup ()

validate ()

boolean

Called by oninit, onblur, and onkeypress

addChild

Makes the given widget a child of this widget. Inserts specified child widget’s dom node as a child of this widget’s container node, and possibly does other processing (such as layout).

Return: undefined

ARGUMENT

TYPE

DESCRIPTION

child

Widget

Child widget

insertIndex

Number
String

Position child in the parent widget

cancel

Sets the isBusy property to false.

Return: object

destroy

Destroys this widget. Will also destroy any resources (including widgets) registered via this.own(). This method will also destroy internal widgets such as those created from a template.

Return: undefined

focus

Focusing the focusable child

Return: aps/_containerbase function

get

Get a property of the Stateful instance. Get a named property of the Stateful object. The property may potentially be retrieved via a getter method in subclasses.

In the base class, this just retrieves the object’s property.

Return: any

getChildren

Returns all direct children of this widget, i.e. all widgets underneath this.containerNode whose parent is this widget. Note that it returns not all descendetns, but only the direct children. Analogous to Node.childNodes, except containing widgets rather than DOMNodes.

The result intentionally excludes internally created widgets (a.k.a. supporting widgets) outside of this.containerNode.

Note the returned array is a simple array. The application code should not assume existence of methods like forEach().

Return: array

getParents

Discover and return all parents of the widget.

Return: array

placeAt

Place this widget somewhere in the DOM based on standard dojo/dom-construct::place() conventions. A convenience function providing a simple shorthand mechanism to put an existing (or newly created) widget somewhere in the DOM, and allow chaining.

Return: dijit/_widgetbase function

postCreate

refresh

Refresh data in widget.

Return: undefined

removeAll

Remove all children in the widget.

Return: undefined

removeChild

Removes the passed widget instance from this widget and destroys it. You can also pass in an integer indicating the index within the container to remove (ie, removeChild(5) removes the sixth widget).

Return: undefined

ARGUMENT

TYPE

DESCRIPTION

widget

Widget
Int

Child widget or index

reset

Resets the widget.

Return: undefined

set

Set a property of the Stateful instance. Sets named properties of the stateful object and notifies the watchers of the property. A programmatic setter may be defined in subclasses.

Return: object function

startup

validate

Called by oninit, onblur, and onkeypress. Show missing or invalid messages if appropriate, and highlight textbox field.

Return: boolean
