Package org.zkoss.stateless.sul

Interface IMeshElement<I extends IMeshElement>

All Superinterfaces:
IComponent<I>, IHtmlBasedComponent<I>, IXulElement<I>
All Known Subinterfaces:
IGrid, IListbox, ITree
public interface IMeshElement<I extends IMeshElement> extends IXulElement<I>
Immutable MeshElement interface

The fundamental class for mesh components such as IGrid, IListbox, and ITree.

Sticky Header

After adding a sclass "z-sticky-header", when we scroll down a page and make a Mesh component's header out of visible range in a viewport, the Mesh component's header becomes floating and sticky on the top of the page.
For example, 

 
 return meshComp.withSclass("z-sticky-header");

Support Application Library Properties

  • To set to use Browser's scrollbar or not, you have to specify withNativeScrollbar(boolean).

    Or configure it from zk.xml by setting library properties. For example, 

      <library-property/>
     <name>org.zkoss.zul.nativebar</name/>
     <value>false</value/>
 </library-property/>
Note: with zk.xml setting, it will affect to all subcomponents which extend from IMeshElement.

  • Method Details

    • getSpan

      @Nullable String getSpan()
      Return column span hint of this component.

      Default: null

    • withSpan

      I withSpan(@Nullable String span)
      Returns a copy of this immutable component with the specified span.

      Sets column span hint of this component. String number span indicates how this component distributes remaining empty space to the specified column(0-based). "0" means distribute remaining empty space to the 1st column; "1" means distribute remaining empty space to the 2nd column, etc.. The spanning column will grow to fit the extra remaining space.

      Special span hint with "true" means span ALL columns proportionally per their original widths while null or "false" means NOT spanning any column.

      Default: null. That is, NOT span any column.

      Note: span is meaningful only if there is remaining empty space for columns.

      Parameters:
      span - The column span hint.
      Returns:
      A modified copy of the this object

    • withSpan

      default I withSpan(boolean span)
      Returns a copy of this immutable component with the specified span.

      Sets whether distributes remaining empty space of this component to ALL columns proportionally.

      Default: false. That is, NOT span any column.

      Note: span is meaningful only if there is remaining empty space for columns.

      Parameters:
      span - Whether to span the width of ALL columns to occupy the whole mesh element(grid/listbox/tree).
      Returns:
      A modified copy of the this object

    • getPagingChild

      @Nullable IPaging getPagingChild()
      Returns the instance of the IPaging

      Default: null, if in "paging" mold, it won't be null

    • withPagingChild

      I withPagingChild(@Nullable IPaging pagingChild)
      Returns a copy of this immutable component with the specified pagingChild.

      Sets the paging child component to this mesh component

      Parameters:
      pagingChild - The paging child.

      Default: null.

      Returns:
      A modified copy of the this object

    • isSizedByContent

      default boolean isSizedByContent()
      Returns whether sizing grid/listbox/tree column width by its content.

      Default: false.

    • withSizedByContent

      I withSizedByContent(boolean sizedByContent)
      Returns a copy of this immutable component with the specified sizedByContent.

      Sets whether sizing grid/listbox/tree column width by its content; it equals to set withHflex("min") on each column.

      Parameters:
      sizedByContent - Whether to enable the column width is sized by its content.

      Default: false.

      Returns:
      A modified copy of the this object

    • isAutopaging

      default boolean isAutopaging()
      Returns whether the auto-paging facility is turned on when the mold is "paging". If it is set to true, the getPagingChild().getPageSize() is ignored; rather, the page size is automatically determined by the height of the mesh component dynamically.

      Default: false

      Returns:
      whether the auto-paging facility is turned on.

    • withAutopaging

      I withAutopaging(boolean autopaging)
      Returns a copy of this immutable component with the specified autopaging.

      Sets whether the auto-paging facility is turned on when the mold is "paging". If it is set to true, the getPagingChild().getPageSize() is ignored; rather, the page size is automatically determined by the height of the mesh component dynamically.

      Note: Due to performance concern, Autopaging functionality does not support IDetail components.

      Parameters:
      autopaging - True to turn on the auto-paging facility.
      Returns:
      A modified copy of the this object

    • getPagingPosition

      default String getPagingPosition()
      Returns how to position the paging of mesh component at the client screen. It is meaningless if the mold is not in "paging".

      Default: "bottom"

    • withPagingPosition

      I withPagingPosition(String pagingPosition)
      Returns a copy of this immutable component with the specified pagingPosition.

      Sets how to position the paging of mesh component at the client screen. It is meaningless if the mold is not in "paging".

      Parameters:
      pagingPosition - How to position. It can only be "bottom" (the default), or "top", or "both".
      Returns:
      A modified copy of the this object

    • withPagingPosition

      default I withPagingPosition(IMeshElement.PagingPosition pagingPosition)
      Returns a copy of this immutable component with the specified pagingPosition.

      Sets how to position the paging of mesh component at the client screen. It is meaningless if the mold is not in "paging".

      Parameters:
      pagingPosition - How to position.
      Returns:
      A modified copy of the this object

    • withNativeScrollbar

      I withNativeScrollbar(boolean nativeScrollbar)
      Returns a copy of this immutable component with the specified nativeScrollbar.
