public class PaletteNode
extends Record

An object representing a component which the user may create dynamically within an application.

A PaletteNode expresses visual properties for how the palette will display it (eg title, icon) as well as instructions for creating the component the paletteNode represents (type, defaults).

Various types of palettes (ListPalette, TreePalette, MenuPalette, TilePalette) render a PaletteNode in different ways, and allow the user to trigger creation in different ways (eg drag and drop, or just click). All share a common pattern for how components are created from palettes.

Note that in a TreePalette, a PaletteNode is essentially a TreeNode and can have properties expected for a TreeNode (eg, showDropIcon. Likewise a PaletteNode in a MenuPalette can have the properties of a MenuItem, such as MenuItem.enableIf().

Method Detail

getOrCreateRef

public static PaletteNode getOrCreateRef(com.google.gwt.core.client.JavaScriptObject jsObj)

setCanvasDefaults

public void setCanvasDefaults(Canvas defaults)

Defaults for the component to be created from this palette.

For example, if type is "ListGrid", properties valid to pass to ListGrid.create().

Parameters:

defaults - Default value is null

getCanvasDefaults

public Canvas getCanvasDefaults()

Defaults for the component to be created from this palette.

For example, if type is "ListGrid", properties valid to pass to ListGrid.create().

Returns:

Canvas

setCanvasLiveObject

public void setCanvasLiveObject(Canvas liveObject)

For a paletteNode which should be a "singleton", that is, always provides the exact same object (==) rather than a dynamically created copy, provide the singleton object as liveObject.

Instead of dynamically creating an object from defaults, the liveObject will simply be assigned to liveObject for the created editNode.

Parameters:

liveObject - Default value is null

getCanvasLiveObject

public Canvas getCanvasLiveObject()

For a paletteNode which should be a "singleton", that is, always provides the exact same object (==) rather than a dynamically created copy, provide the singleton object as liveObject.

Instead of dynamically creating an object from defaults, the liveObject will simply be assigned to liveObject for the created editNode.

Returns:

Canvas

setDrawItemDefaults

public void setDrawItemDefaults(DrawItem defaults)

Defaults for the component to be created from this palette.

For example, if type is "ListGrid", properties valid to pass to ListGrid.create().

Parameters:

defaults - Default value is null

getDrawItemDefaults

public DrawItem getDrawItemDefaults()

Defaults for the component to be created from this palette.

For example, if type is "ListGrid", properties valid to pass to ListGrid.create().

Returns:

setDrawItemLiveObject

public void setDrawItemLiveObject(DrawItem liveObject)

For a paletteNode which should be a "singleton", that is, always provides the exact same object (==) rather than a dynamically created copy, provide the singleton object as liveObject.

Instead of dynamically creating an object from defaults, the liveObject will simply be assigned to liveObject for the created editNode.

Parameters:

liveObject - Default value is null

getDrawItemLiveObject

public DrawItem getDrawItemLiveObject()

For a paletteNode which should be a "singleton", that is, always provides the exact same object (==) rather than a dynamically created copy, provide the singleton object as liveObject.

Instead of dynamically creating an object from defaults, the liveObject will simply be assigned to liveObject for the created editNode.

Returns:

DrawItem
