Base Class
Control

Class that shows an element as a popup.

Popups may be have owner elements, in which case they behave as rich tooltips that may be shown or hidden based on actions specified by the showTrigger and hideTrigger properties.

Popups with no owner elements behave like dialogs. They are centered on the screen and displayed using the show method.

To close a hide method.

Alternatively, any clickable elements within a Popup that have the classes starting with the 'wj-hide' string will hide the Popup when clicked and will set the dialogResult property to the class name so the caller may take appropriate action.

For example, the Popup below will be hidden when the user presses the OK or Cancel buttons, and the dialogResult property will be set to either 'wj-hide-cancel' or 'wj-hide-ok':

<button id="btnPopup">Show Popup</button>
<wj-popup owner="#btnPopup" style="padding:12px">
  <p>Press one of the buttons below to hide the Popup.</p>
  <hr/>
  <button class="wj-hide-ok" ng-click="handleOK()">OK</button>
  <button class="wj-hide-cancel">Cancel</button>
</wj-popup>

Constructor

constructor

constructor(element: any, options?: any): Popup

Initializes a new instance of the Popup class.

Parameters
Returns
Popup

Properties

content

Gets or sets the HTML element contained in this Popup.

Type
HTMLElement

dialogResult

Gets or sets a value that can be used for handling the content of the Popup after it is hidden.

This property is set to null when the Popup is displayed, and it can be set in response to button click events or in the call to the hide method.

Type
any

dialogResultEnter

Gets or sets a value to be used as a dialogResult when the user presses the Enter key while the Popup is visible.

If the user presses Enter and the dialogResultEnter property is not null, the popup checks whether all its child elements are in a valid state. If so, the popup is closed and the dialogResult property is set to the value of the dialogResultEnter property.

Type
any

fadeIn

Gets or sets a value that determines whether the Popup should use a fade-out animation when it is shown.

Type
boolean

fadeOut

Gets or sets a value that determines whether the Popup should use a fade-out animation when it is hidden.

Type
boolean

hideTrigger

Gets or sets the actions that hide the Popup.

By default, the hideTrigger property is set to Blur, which hides the popup when it loses focus.

If you set the hideTrigger property to Click, the popup will be hidden only when the owner element is clicked.

If you set the hideTrigger property to None, the popup will be hidden only when the hide method is called.

Type
PopupTrigger

hostElement

Gets the DOM element that is hosting the control.

If you set the showTrigger property to None, the popup will be shown only when the show method is called.

Type
PopupTrigger

Methods

addEventListener

addEventListener(target: EventTarget, type: string, fn: any, capture?: boolean): void

Adds an event listener to an element owned by this Control.

The control keeps a list of attached listeners and their handlers, making it easier to remove them when the control is disposed (see the dispose and removeEventListener method).

Failing to remove event listeners may cause memory leaks.

Parameters
  • target: EventTarget

    Target element for the event.

  • type: string

    String that specifies the event.

  • fn: any

    Function to execute when the event occurs.

  • capture: boolean Optional

    Whether the listener is capturing.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

applyTemplate

applyTemplate(classNames: string, template: string, parts: Object, namePart?: string): HTMLElement

Applies the template to a new instance of a control, and returns the root element.

This method should be called by constructors of templated controls. It is responsible for binding the template parts to the corresponding control members.

For example, the code below applies a template to an instance of an InputNumber control. The template must contain elements with the 'wj-part' attribute set to 'input', 'btn-inc', and 'btn-dec'. The control members '_tbx', '_btnUp', and '_btnDn' will be assigned references to these elements.

this.applyTemplate('wj-control wj-inputnumber', template, {
  _tbx: 'input',
  _btnUp: 'btn-inc',
  _btnDn: 'btn-dec'
}, 'input');
Parameters
  • classNames: string

    Names of classes to add to the control's host element.

  • template: string

    An HTML string that defines the control template.

  • parts: Object

    A dictionary of part variables and their names.

  • namePart: string Optional

    Name of the part to be named after the host element. This determines how the control submits data when used in forms.

Control
Returns
HTMLElement

beginUpdate

beginUpdate(): void

Suspends notifications until the next call to endUpdate.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

containsFocus

containsFocus(): boolean

Checks whether this control contains the focused element.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
boolean

deferUpdate

deferUpdate(fn: Function): void

Executes a function within a beginUpdate/endUpdate block.

The control will not be updated until the function has been executed. This method ensures endUpdate is called even if the function throws an exception.

Parameters
Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

dispose

dispose(): void

Disposes of the control by removing its association with the host element.

The dispose method automatically removes any event listeners added with the addEventListener method.

Calling the dispose method is important in applications that create and remove controls dynamically. Failing to dispose of the controls may cause memory leaks.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

Static disposeAll

disposeAll(e?: HTMLElement): void

Disposes of all Wijmo controls contained in an HTML element.

Parameters
Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

endUpdate

endUpdate(): void

Resumes notifications suspended by calls to beginUpdate.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

focus

focus(): void

Sets the focus to this control.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

Static getControl

getControl(element: any): Control

Gets the control that is hosted in a given DOM element.

Parameters
  • element: any

    The DOM element that is hosting the control, or a selector for the host element (e.g. '#theCtrl').

Inherited From
Control
Returns
Control

getTemplate

getTemplate(): string

Gets the HTML template used to create instances of the control.

This method traverses up the class hierarchy to find the nearest ancestor that specifies a control template. For example, if you specify a prototype for the ComboBox control, it will override the template defined by the DropDown base class.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
string

hide

hide(dialogResult?: any): void

Hides the Popup.

Parameters
  • dialogResult: any Optional

    Optional value assigned to the dialogResult property before closing the Popup.

Returns
void

initialize

initialize(options: any): void

Initializes the control by copying the properties from a given object.

This method allows you to initialize controls using plain data objects instead of setting the value of each property in code.

For example:

grid.initialize({
  itemsSource: myList,
  autoGenerateColumns: false,
  columns: [
    { binding: 'id', header: 'Code', width: 130 },
    { binding: 'name', header: 'Name', width: 60 } 
  ]
});

// is equivalent to
grid.itemsSource = myList;
grid.autoGenerateColumns = false;

// etc.

The initialization data is type-checked as it is applied. If the initialization object contains unknown property names or invalid data types, this method will throw.

Parameters
  • options: any

    Object that contains the initialization data.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

invalidate

invalidate(fullUpdate?: boolean): void

Invalidates the control causing an asynchronous refresh.

Parameters
  • fullUpdate: boolean Optional

    Whether to update the control layout as well as the content.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

Static invalidateAll

invalidateAll(e?: HTMLElement): void

Invalidates all Wijmo controls contained in an HTML element.

Use this method when your application has dynamic panels that change the control's visibility or dimensions. For example, splitters, accordions, and tab controls usually change the visibility of its content elements. In this case, failing to notify the controls contained in the element may cause them to stop working properly.

If this happens, you must handle the appropriate event in the dynamic container and call the invalidateAll method so the contained Wijmo controls will update their layout information properly.

Parameters
  • e: HTMLElement Optional

    Container element. If set to null, all Wijmo controls on the page will be invalidated.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

onGotFocus

onGotFocus(e?: EventArgs): void

Raises the gotFocus event.

Parameters
Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

onHidden

onHidden(e?: EventArgs): void

Raises the hidden event.

Parameters
Returns
void

onHiding

onHiding(e: CancelEventArgs): boolean

Raises the hiding event.

Parameters
Returns
boolean

onLostFocus

onLostFocus(e?: EventArgs): void

Raises the lostFocus event.

Parameters
Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

onShowing

onShowing(e: CancelEventArgs): boolean

Raises the showing event.

Parameters
Returns
boolean

onShown

onShown(e?: EventArgs): void

Raises the shown event.

Parameters
Returns
void

refresh

refresh(fullUpdate?: boolean): void

Refreshes the control.

Parameters
  • fullUpdate: boolean Optional

    Whether to update the control layout as well as the content.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

Static refreshAll

refreshAll(e?: HTMLElement): void

Refreshes all Wijmo controls contained in an HTML element.

This method is similar to invalidateAll, except the controls are updated immediately rather than after an interval.

Parameters
  • e: HTMLElement Optional

    Container element. If set to null, all Wijmo controls on the page will be invalidated.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
void

removeEventListener

removeEventListener(target?: EventTarget, type?: string, fn?: any, capture?: boolean): number

Removes one or more event listeners attached to elements owned by this Control.

Parameters
  • target: EventTarget Optional

    Target element for the event. If null, removes listeners attached to all targets.

  • type: string Optional

    String that specifies the event. If null, removes listeners attached to all events.

  • fn: any Optional

    Handler to remove. If null, removes all handlers.

  • capture: boolean Optional

    Whether the listener is capturing. If null, removes capturing and non-capturing listeners.

Inherited From
Control
Returns
number

show

show(modal?: boolean, handleResult?: Function): void

Shows the Popup.

Parameters
  • modal: boolean Optional

    Whether to show the popup as a modal dialog. If provided, this sets the value of the modal property.

  • handleResult: Function Optional

    Callback invoked when the popup is hidden. If provided, this should be a function that receives the popup as a parameter.

    The handleResult callback allows callers to handle the result of modal dialogs without attaching handlers to the hidden event. For example, the code below shows a dialog used to edit the current item in a CollectionView. The edits are committed or canceled depending on the dialogResult value. For example:

    $scope.editCurrentItem = function () {
      $scope.data.editItem($scope.data.currentItem);
      $scope.itemEditor.show(true, function (e) {
        if (e.dialogResult == 'wj-hide-ok') {
          $scope.data.commitEdit();
        } else {
          $scope.data.cancelEdit();
        }
      });
    }
