Accessors

addButtonEnabled

  • get addButtonEnabled(): boolean
  • set addButtonEnabled(value: boolean): void

addButtonNode

  • get addButtonNode(): HTMLDivElement
  • The tab bar add button node.

    Notes

    This is the node which holds the add button.

    Modifying this node directly can lead to undefined behavior.

addRequested

  • get addRequested(): ISignal<this, void>

contentNode

  • get contentNode(): HTMLUListElement
  • The tab bar content node.

    Notes

    This is the node which holds the tab nodes.

    Modifying this node directly can lead to undefined behavior.

    Returns HTMLUListElement

currentChanged

  • A signal emitted when the current tab is changed.

    Notes

    This signal is emitted when the currently selected tab is changed either through user or programmatic interaction.

    Notably, this signal is not emitted when the index of the current tab changes due to tabs being inserted, removed, or moved. It is only emitted when the actual current tab node is changed.

    Returns ISignal<this, ICurrentChangedArgs<T>>

currentIndex

  • get currentIndex(): number
  • set currentIndex(value: number): void
  • Get the index of the currently selected tab.

    Notes

    This will be -1 if no tab is selected.

    Returns number

  • Set the index of the currently selected tab.

    Notes

    If the value is out of range, the index will be set to -1.

    Parameters

    • value: number

    Returns void

currentTitle

  • get currentTitle(): Title<T> | null
  • set currentTitle(value: Title<T> | null): void

dataset

  • get dataset(): DOMStringMap

disposed

  • get disposed(): ISignal<this, void>

document

  • get document(): Document | ShadowRoot
  • The document to use with the tab bar.

    The default is the global document instance.

    Returns Document | ShadowRoot

hiddenMode

id

  • get id(): string
  • set id(value: string): void

isAttached

  • get isAttached(): boolean

isDisposed

  • get isDisposed(): boolean

isHidden

  • get isHidden(): boolean

isVisible

  • get isVisible(): boolean
  • Test whether the widget is visible.

    Notes

    A widget is visible when it is attached to the DOM, is not explicitly hidden, and has no explicitly hidden ancestors.

    Returns boolean

layout

  • get layout(): Layout | null
  • set layout(value: Layout | null): void
  • Get the layout for the widget.

    Notes

    The layout is single-use only. It cannot be changed after the first assignment.

    The layout is disposed automatically when the widget is disposed.

    Returns Layout | null

  • Set the layout for the widget.

    Notes

    The layout is single-use only. It cannot be changed after the first assignment.

    The layout is disposed automatically when the widget is disposed.

    Parameters

    Returns void

name

  • get name(): string
  • set name(value: string): void

orientation

parent

  • get parent(): Widget | null
  • set parent(value: Widget | null): void
  • Get the parent of the widget.

    Notes

    Children are typically added to a widget by using a layout, which means user code will not normally set the parent widget directly.

    The widget will be automatically removed from its old parent.

    This is a no-op if there is no effective parent change.

    Returns Widget | null

  • Set the parent of the widget.

    Notes

    Children are typically added to a widget by using a layout, which means user code will not normally set the parent widget directly.

    The widget will be automatically removed from its old parent.

    This is a no-op if there is no effective parent change.

    Parameters

    Returns void

tabActivateRequested

  • A signal emitted when a tab is clicked by the user.

    Notes

    If the clicked tab is not the current tab, the clicked tab will be made current and the currentChanged signal will be emitted first.

    This signal is emitted even if the clicked tab is the current tab.

    Returns ISignal<this, ITabActivateRequestedArgs<T>>

tabCloseRequested

tabDetachRequested

  • A signal emitted when a tab is dragged beyond the detach threshold.

    Notes

    This signal is emitted when the user drags a tab with the mouse, and mouse is dragged beyond the detach threshold.

    The consumer of the signal should call releaseMouse and remove the tab in order to complete the detach.

    This signal is only emitted once per drag cycle.

    Returns ISignal<this, ITabDetachRequestedArgs<T>>

tabMoved

  • A signal emitted when a tab is moved by the user.

    Notes

    This signal is emitted when a tab is moved by user interaction.

    This signal is not emitted when a tab is moved programmatically.

    Returns ISignal<this, ITabMovedArgs<T>>

title

  • The title object for the widget.

    Notes

    The title object is used by some container widgets when displaying the widget alongside some title, such as a tab panel or side bar.

    Since not all widgets will use the title, it is created on demand.

    The owner property of the title is set to this widget.

    Returns Title<Widget>

titles

  • get titles(): ReadonlyArray<Title<T>>

titlesEditable

  • get titlesEditable(): boolean
  • set titlesEditable(value: boolean): void
