public class HeaderSpan
extends DataClass

A header span appears as a second level of headers in a ListGrid, spanning one or more ListGrid columns and their associated headers.

See headerSpans.

In addition to the properties documented here, all other properties specified on the headerSpan object will be passed to the create() method of the headerSpanConstructor. This allows you to set properties such as baseStyle or src directly in a headerSpan.

getAlign

public Alignment getAlign()

Horizontal alignment of the title of this headerSpan.

Returns:

Alignment

setFields

public void setFields(java.lang.String... fields)

List of fields that this header spans. Fields should be identified by their value for name.

Developers may define multiple levels of header-spans by specifying spans however a span cannot be specified with both fields and spans.

Parameters:

fields - Default value is null

getFields

public java.lang.String[] getFields()

List of fields that this header spans. Fields should be identified by their value for name.

Developers may define multiple levels of header-spans by specifying spans however a span cannot be specified with both fields and spans.

Returns:

String...

setHeaderBaseStyle

public void setHeaderBaseStyle(java.lang.String headerBaseStyle)

Custom base style to apply to the header button created for this span instead of headerBaseStyle.

Note that depending on the header button constructor, you may have to specify headerTitleStyle as well.

Parameters:

headerBaseStyle - See CSSClass . Default value is null

Appearance overview and related methods

getHeaderBaseStyle

public java.lang.String getHeaderBaseStyle()

Custom base style to apply to the header button created for this span instead of headerBaseStyle.

Note that depending on the header button constructor, you may have to specify headerTitleStyle as well.

Returns:

See CSSClass

See Also:

Appearance overview and related methods

setHeaderTitle

public void setHeaderTitle(java.lang.String headerTitle)

Optional title for the headerSpan button for this headerSpan. If specified this will be displayed in the headerSpan button instead of title. Set to an empty string to suppress the title in the header button entirely.

Parameters:

headerTitle - Default value is null

getHeaderTitle

public java.lang.String getHeaderTitle()

Optional title for the headerSpan button for this headerSpan. If specified this will be displayed in the headerSpan button instead of title. Set to an empty string to suppress the title in the header button entirely.

Returns:

String

setHeaderTitleStyle

public void setHeaderTitleStyle(java.lang.String headerTitleStyle)

Custom titleStyle to apply to the header button created for this span instead of headerTitleStyle.

Note that this will typically only have an effect if headerButtonConstructor is set to StretchImgButton or a subclass thereof.

Parameters:

headerTitleStyle - See CSSClass . Default value is null

See Also:

setHeaderBaseStyle(java.lang.String), Appearance overview and related methods

getHeaderTitleStyle

public java.lang.String getHeaderTitleStyle()

Note that this will typically only have an effect if headerButtonConstructor is set to StretchImgButton or a subclass thereof.

Returns:

getHeaderBaseStyle(), Appearance overview and related methods

setHeight

public void setHeight(java.lang.Integer height)

Height of this headerSpan. Defaults to headerSpanHeight.

Parameters:

height - Default value is null

getHeight

public java.lang.Integer getHeight()

Height of this headerSpan. Defaults to headerSpanHeight.

Returns:

Integer

setName

public void setName(java.lang.String name)

Name for this headerSpan, for use in APIs like ListGrid.setHeaderSpanTitle().

Name is optional, but if specified, must be unique for this ListGrid (but not globally unique) as well as a valid JavaScript identifier, as specified by ECMA-262 Section 7.6 (the StringUtil.isValidID() function can be used to test whether a name is a valid JavaScript identifier).

Parameters:

name - Default value is null

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

Name for this headerSpan, for use in APIs like ListGrid.setHeaderSpanTitle().

Name is optional, but if specified, must be unique for this ListGrid (but not globally unique) as well as a valid JavaScript identifier, as specified by ECMA-262 Section 7.6 (the StringUtil.isValidID() function can be used to test whether a name is a valid JavaScript identifier).

setSpans

public void setSpans(HeaderSpan... spans)

This property allows developer to "nest" header spans, grouping fields together by multiple layers of granularity.

For example a group of fields could be nested within two layers of header spans as follows:

       HeaderSpan france = new HeaderSpan("France", new String[] {"Paris", "Lyon"});
       HeaderSpan uk = new HeaderSpan("UK", new String[] {"London", "Glasgow"});
       HeaderSpan spain = new HeaderSpan("Spain", new String[] {"Barcelona"});
 
       HeaderSpan europe = new HeaderSpan();
       europe.setTitle("Europe");
       europe.setSpans(france, uk, spain);
  

Note that a span definition can not include both spans and fields.

Parameters:

spans - Default value is null

getSpans

public HeaderSpan[] getSpans()

This property allows developer to "nest" header spans, grouping fields together by multiple layers of granularity.

For example a group of fields could be nested within two layers of header spans as follows:

       HeaderSpan france = new HeaderSpan("France", new String[] {"Paris", "Lyon"});
       HeaderSpan uk = new HeaderSpan("UK", new String[] {"London", "Glasgow"});
       HeaderSpan spain = new HeaderSpan("Spain", new String[] {"Barcelona"});

Returns:

HeaderSpan...

setTitle

public void setTitle(java.lang.String title)

A title for this headerSpan, to display in the headerSpan button for this headerSpan and in other contexts such as the menu for picking visible fields. Note: if you want to use HTML tags to affect the display of the header, you should do so via headerTitle instead so that other places where the title appears in the UI are not affected. Refer to discussion at title.

Parameters:

title - Default value is null

getTitle

public java.lang.String getTitle()

A title for this headerSpan, to display in the headerSpan button for this headerSpan and in other contexts such as the menu for picking visible fields.
