See Also:

HtmlBasedComponent.setWidthDirectly(java.lang.String), AbstractComponent.disableClientUpdate(boolean)

isClosable

public boolean isClosable()

Returns whether this tab is closable. If closable, a button is displayed and the onClose event is sent if an user clicks the button.

Default: false.

setClosable

public void setClosable(boolean closable)

Sets whether this tab is closable. If closable, a button is displayed and the onClose event is sent if an user clicks the button.

Default: false.

You can intercept the default behavior by either overriding onClose(), or listening the onClose event.

If Tabbox.getModel() is assigned, there is no an action to do with onClose(), i.e. developer has to listen onClose event to delete that item in model not component itself. (since 7.0.0)

onClose

public void onClose()

Process the onClose event sent when the close button is pressed.

Default: invoke close() to detach itself and the corresponding Tabpanel.

close

public void close()

Closes this tab and the linked tabpanel. This method detaches this component and the linked Tabpanel), only if Tabbox.getModel() is null. (since 7.0.0)

Since:

5.0.0

getTabbox

Returns the tabbox owns this component.

getLinkedPanel

public Tabpanel getLinkedPanel()

Returns the panel associated with this tab.

isSelected

public boolean isSelected()

Returns whether this tab is selected.

setSelected

public void setSelected(boolean selected)

Sets whether this tab is selected.

getIndex

public int getIndex()

Returns the index of this panel, or -1 if it doesn't belong to any tabs.

getZclass

public java.lang.String getZclass()

Description copied from class: HtmlBasedComponent

Returns the ZK Cascading Style class(es) for this component. It usually depends on the implementation of the mold (AbstractComponent.getMold()).

Default: null (the default value depends on element).

HtmlBasedComponent.setZclass(java.lang.String)) will completely replace the default style of a component. In other words, the default style of a component is associated with the default value of HtmlBasedComponent.getZclass(). Once it is changed, the default style won't be applied at all. If you want to perform small adjustments, use HtmlBasedComponent.setSclass(java.lang.String) instead.

Overrides:

getZclass in class HtmlBasedComponent

See Also:

HtmlBasedComponent.getSclass()

isChildable

protected boolean isChildable()

Child is allowed, Caption only.

Overrides:

isChildable in class AbstractComponent

Since:

6.5.0

beforeChildAdded

public void beforeChildAdded(Component child,
                             Component refChild)

Description copied from class: AbstractComponent

Default: does nothing.

Specified by:

beforeChildAdded in interface ComponentCtrl

Overrides:

beforeChildAdded in class AbstractComponent

Parameters:

child - the child to be added (never null).

refChild - another child component that the new child will be inserted before it. If null, the new child will be the last child.

See Also:

ComponentCtrl.beforeChildAdded(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component, org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component)

onCreate

public void onCreate(Event evt)

Internal use only

Since:

6.5.0

insertBefore

public boolean insertBefore(Component child,
                            Component refChild)

Description copied from interface: Component

Inserts a child before the reference child.

You could use Component.setParent(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component) or Component.appendChild(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component) instead of this method, unless you want to control where to put the child.

Note: Component.setParent(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component) always calls back Component.insertBefore(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component, org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component) and/or Component.removeChild(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component), while Component.insertBefore(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component, org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component) and Component.removeChild(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component) always calls back Component.setParent(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component), if the parent is changed. Thus, you don't need to override both Component.insertBefore(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component, org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component) and Component.setParent(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component), if you want to customize the behavior.

If you would like to monitor if a component is attached or detached from a page, you could register a desktop listener implementing UiLifeCycle.

Specified by:

insertBefore in interface Component

Overrides:

insertBefore in class AbstractComponent

Parameters:

child - the new child to be inserted.

refChild - the child before which you want the new child being inserted. If null, the new child is append to the end.

Returns:

true if newChild is added successfully or moved; false if it already has the specified child and the order doesn't change.

onChildRemoved

public void onChildRemoved(Component child)

Description copied from class: AbstractComponent

Default: does nothing.

Specified by:

onChildRemoved in interface ComponentCtrl

Overrides:

onChildRemoved in class AbstractComponent

See Also:

ComponentCtrl.onChildRemoved(org.zkoss.zk.ui.Component)

beforeParentChanged

public void beforeParentChanged(Component parent)

Description copied from class: AbstractComponent

Default: does nothing.

Specified by:

beforeParentChanged in interface ComponentCtrl

Overrides:

beforeParentChanged in class AbstractComponent

Parameters:
