Filtering

Properties

  • class : String

    inherited observable

    (Optional) The additional CSS class set on the button.

  • icon : String

    inherited observable

    (Optional) An XML content of the icon. When defined, an iconView should be added to the button.

  • isEnabled : Boolean

    inherited observable

    Controls whether the button view is enabled, i.e. it can be clicked and execute an action.

    To change the "on" state of the button, use isOn instead.

    Defaults to true

  • isOn : Boolean

    inherited observable

    Controls whether the button view is "on". It makes sense when a feature it represents is currently active, e.g. a bold button is "on" when the selection is in the bold text.

    To disable the button, use isEnabled instead.

    Defaults to true

  • isToggleable : Boolean

    inherited observable

    Controls whether the button view is a toggle button (two–state) for assistive technologies.

    Defaults to false

  • isVisible : Boolean

    inherited observable

    Controls whether the button view is visible. Visible by default, buttons are hidden using a CSS class.

    Defaults to true

  • keystroke : Boolean

    inherited observable

    (Optional) The keystroke associated with the button, i.e. CTRL+B, in the string format compatible with keyboard.

    Note: Use withKeystroke if you want to display the keystroke information next to the label.

  • label : String

    inherited observable

    The label of the button view visible to the user when withText is true. It can also be used to create a tooltip.

  • labelStyle : String

    inherited observable

    (Optional) The value of the style attribute of the label.

  • tabindex : String

    inherited observable

    (Optional) Controls the tabindex HTML attribute of the button. By default, the button is focusable but does not included in the Tab order.

    Defaults to -1

  • tooltip : Boolean | String | function

    inherited observable

    (Optional) Tooltip of the button, i.e. displayed when hovering the button with the mouse cursor.

    • If defined as a Boolean (e.g. true), then combination of label and keystroke will be set as a tooltip.

    • If defined as a String, tooltip will equal the exact text of that String.

    • If defined as a Function, label and keystroke will be passed to that function, which is to return a string with the tooltip text.

      const view = new ButtonView( locale );
      view.tooltip = ( label, keystroke ) => `A tooltip for ${ label } and ${ keystroke }.`

    Defaults to false

  • tooltipPosition : 's' | 'n' | 'e' | 'w' | 'sw' | 'se'

    inherited observable

    (Optional) The position of the tooltip. See position to learn more about the available position values.

    Note: It makes sense only when the tooltip attribute is defined.

    Defaults to 's'

  • type : 'button' | 'submit' | 'reset' | 'menu'

    inherited observable

    The HTML type of the button. Default button.

  • withKeystroke : Boolean

    inherited observable

    (Optional) Controls whether the keystroke of the button is displayed next to its label.

    Note: This property requires a keystroke to be defined in the first place.

    Defaults to false

  • withText : Boolean

    inherited observable

    (Optional) Controls whether the label of the button is hidden (e.g. an icon–only button).

    Defaults to false
