Files
Base class for any Ext.Component that may contain other Components. Containers handle the basic behavior of containing items, namely adding, inserting and removing items.
The most commonly used Container classes are Ext.panel.Panel, Ext.window.Window and Ext.tab.Panel. If you do not need the capabilities offered by the aforementioned classes you can create a lightweight Container to be encapsulated by an HTML element to your specifications by using the autoEl config option.
The code below illustrates how to explicitly create a Container:
// Explicitly create a Container
Ext.create('Ext.container.Container', {
layout: {
type: 'hbox'
},
width: 400,
renderTo: Ext.getBody(),
border: 1,
style: {borderColor:'#000000', borderStyle:'solid', borderWidth:'1px'},
defaults: {
labelWidth: 80,
// implicitly create Container by specifying xtype
xtype: 'datefield',
flex: 1,
style: {
padding: '10px'
}
},
items: [{
xtype: 'datefield',
name: 'startDate',
fieldLabel: 'Start date'
},{
xtype: 'datefield',
name: 'endDate',
fieldLabel: 'End date'
}]
});
Layout
Container classes delegate the rendering of child Components to a layout manager class which must be configured into
the Container using the layout configuration property.
When either specifying child items of a Container, or dynamically adding Components to a
Container, remember to consider how you wish the Container to arrange those child elements, and whether those child
elements need to be sized using one of Ext's built-in layout schemes. By default, Containers use the
Auto scheme which only renders child components, appending them one after the other
inside the Container, and does not apply any sizing at all.
A common mistake is when a developer neglects to specify a layout (e.g. widgets like GridPanels or
TreePanels are added to Containers for which no layout has been specified). If a Container is left to
use the default Auto scheme, none of its child components will be resized, or changed in
any way when the Container is resized.
Certain layout managers allow dynamic addition of child components. Those that do include Ext.layout.container.Card, Ext.layout.container.Anchor, Ext.layout.container.VBox, Ext.layout.container.HBox, and Ext.layout.container.Table. For example:
// Create the GridPanel.
var myNewGrid = Ext.create('Ext.grid.Panel', {
store: myStore,
headers: myHeaders,
title: 'Results', // the title becomes the title of the tab
});
myTabPanel.add(myNewGrid); // Ext.tab.Panel implicitly uses Card
myTabPanel.setActiveTab(myNewGrid);
The example above adds a newly created GridPanel to a TabPanel. Note that a TabPanel uses Ext.layout.container.Card as its layout manager which means all its child items are sized to fit exactly into its client area.
Overnesting is a common problem. An example of overnesting occurs when a GridPanel is added to a TabPanel by
wrapping the GridPanel inside a wrapping Panel (that has no layout specified) and then add that
wrapping Panel to the TabPanel. The point to realize is that a GridPanel is a Component which can be added
directly to a Container. If the wrapping Panel has no layout configuration, then the overnested
GridPanel will not be sized as expected.
Adding via remote configuration
A server side script can be used to add Components which are generated dynamically on the server. An example of adding a GridPanel to a TabPanel where the GridPanel is generated by the server based on certain parameters:
// execute an Ajax request to invoke server side script:
Ext.Ajax.request({
url: 'gen-invoice-grid.php',
// send additional parameters to instruct server script
params: {
startDate: Ext.getCmp('start-date').getValue(),
endDate: Ext.getCmp('end-date').getValue()
},
// process the response object to add it to the TabPanel:
success: function(xhr) {
var newComponent = eval(xhr.responseText); // see discussion below
myTabPanel.add(newComponent); // add the component to the TabPanel
myTabPanel.setActiveTab(newComponent);
},
failure: function() {
Ext.Msg.alert("Grid create failed", "Server communication failure");
}
});
The server script needs to return a JSON representation of a configuration object, which, when decoded will return a config object with an xtype. The server might return the following JSON:
{
"xtype": 'grid',
"title": 'Invoice Report',
"store": {
"model": 'Invoice',
"proxy": {
"type": 'ajax',
"url": 'get-invoice-data.php',
"reader": {
"type": 'json'
"record": 'transaction',
"idProperty": 'id',
"totalRecords": 'total'
})
},
"autoLoad": {
"params": {
"startDate": '01/01/2008',
"endDate": '01/31/2008'
}
}
},
"headers": [
{"header": "Customer", "width": 250, "dataIndex": 'customer', "sortable": true},
{"header": "Invoice Number", "width": 120, "dataIndex": 'invNo', "sortable": true},
{"header": "Invoice Date", "width": 100, "dataIndex": 'date', "renderer": Ext.util.Format.dateRenderer('M d, y'), "sortable": true},
{"header": "Value", "width": 120, "dataIndex": 'value', "renderer": 'usMoney', "sortable": true}
]
}
When the above code fragment is passed through the eval function in the success handler of the Ajax request, the
result will be a config object which, when added to a Container, will cause instantiation of a GridPanel. Be sure
that the Container is configured with a layout which sizes and positions the child items to your requirements.
Note: since the code above is generated by a server script, the autoLoad params for the Store, the user's
preferred date format, the metadata to allow generation of the Model layout, and the ColumnModel can all be generated
into the code since these are all known on the server.
Available since: 2.3.0
Config options
A string component id or the numeric index of the component that should be initially activated within the container's layout on render. For example, activeItem: 'item-1' or activeItem: 0 (index 0 = the first item in the container's collection). activeItem only applies to layout styles that can display items one at a time (like Ext.layout.container.Card and Ext.layout.container.Fit).
Available since: 2.3.0
Defines the anchoring size of container.
Either a number to define the width of the container or an object with width and height fields.
Available since: 4.1.0
If true the container will automatically destroy any contained component that is removed from it, else destruction must be handled manually.
Defaults to: true
Available since: 2.3.0
A tag name or DomHelper spec used to create the Element which will encapsulate this Component.
You do not normally need to specify this. For the base classes Ext.Component and Ext.container.Container, this defaults to 'div'. The more complex Sencha classes use a more complex DOM structure specified by their own renderTpls.
This is intended to allow the developer to create application-specific utility Components encapsulated by different DOM elements. Example usage:
{
xtype: 'component',
autoEl: {
tag: 'img',
src: 'http://www.example.com/example.jpg'
}
}, {
xtype: 'component',
autoEl: {
tag: 'blockquote',
html: 'autoEl is cool!'
}
}, {
xtype: 'container',
autoEl: 'ul',
cls: 'ux-unordered-list',
items: {
xtype: 'component',
autoEl: 'li',
html: 'First list item'
}
}
Available since: 2.3.0
An alias for loader config which also allows to specify just a string which will be used as the url that's automatically loaded:
Ext.create('Ext.Component', {
autoLoad: 'content.html',
renderTo: Ext.getBody()
});
The above is the same as:
Ext.create('Ext.Component', {
loader: {
url: 'content.html',
autoLoad: true
},
renderTo: Ext.getBody()
});
Don't use it together with loader config.
This cfg has been deprecated since 4.1.1
Use loader config instead.
Available since: 4.1.1
This config is intended mainly for non-floating Components which may or may not be shown. Instead of using
renderTo in the configuration, and rendering upon construction, this allows a Component to render itself
upon first show. If floating is true, the value of this config is omitted as if it is true.
Specify as true to have this Component render to the document body upon first show.
Specify as an element, or the ID of an element to have this Component render to a specific element upon first show.
Defaults to: false
Available since: 4.0.0
true to automatically show the component upon creation. This config option may only be used for
floating components or components that use autoRender.
Defaults to: false
Available since: 2.3.0
The base CSS class to apply to this component's element. This will also be prepended to elements within this
component like Panel's body will get a class x-panel-body. This means that if you create a subclass of Panel, and
you want it to get all the Panels styling for the element and the body, you leave the baseCls x-panel and use
componentCls to add specific styling for this component.
Defaults to: Ext.baseCSSPrefix + 'container'
Available since: 4.0.0
Overrides: Ext.AbstractComponent.baseCls
Specifies the border size for this component. The border can be a single numeric value to apply to all sides or it can be a CSS style specification for each style, for example: '10 5 3 10' (top, right, bottom, left).
For components that have no border by default, setting this won't make the border appear by itself. You also need to specify border color and style:
border: 5,
style: {
borderColor: 'red',
borderStyle: 'solid'
}
To turn off the border, use border: false.
Available since: 4.0.0
An array of events that, when fired, should be bubbled to any parent container. See Ext.util.Observable.enableBubble.
Defaults to: ['add', 'remove']
Available since: 3.4.0
An array describing the child elements of the Component. Each member of the array is an object with these properties:
name- The property name on the Component for the child element.itemId- The id to combine with the Component's id that is the id of the child element.id- The id of the child element.
If the array member is a string, it is equivalent to { name: m, itemId: m }.
For example, a Component which renders a title and body text:
Ext.create('Ext.Component', {
renderTo: Ext.getBody(),
renderTpl: [
'<h1 id="{id}-title">{title}</h1>',
'<p>{msg}</p>',
],
renderData: {
title: "Error",
msg: "Something went wrong"
},
childEls: ["title"],
listeners: {
afterrender: function(cmp){
// After rendering the component will have a title property
cmp.title.setStyle({color: "red"});
}
}
});
A more flexible, but somewhat slower, approach is renderSelectors.
Available since: 4.0.5
An optional extra CSS class that will be added to this component's Element. This can be useful for adding customized styles to the component or any of its children using standard CSS rules.
Defaults to: ''
Available since: 1.1.0
Defines the column width inside column layout.
Can be specified as a number or as a percentage.
Available since: 4.1.1
CSS Class to be added to a components root level element to give distinction to it via styling.
CSS Class to be added to a components root level element to give distinction to it via styling.
Available since: 4.0.0
The sizing and positioning of a Component's internal Elements is the responsibility of the Component's layout manager which sizes a Component's internal structure in response to the Component being sized.
Generally, developers will not use this configuration as all provided Components which need their internal elements sizing (Such as input fields) come with their own componentLayout managers.
The default layout manager will be used on instances of the base Ext.Component class which simply sizes the Component's encapsulating element to the height and width specified in the setSize method.
Available since: 4.0.0
A Region (or an element from which a Region measurement will be read) which is used to constrain the component. Only applies when the component is floating.
Available since: 4.1.2
Specify an existing HTML element, or the id of an existing HTML element to use as the content for this component.
This config option is used to take an existing HTML element and place it in the layout element of a new component (it simply moves the specified DOM element after the Component is rendered to use as the content.
Notes:
The specified HTML element is appended to the layout element of the component after any configured HTML has been inserted, and so the document will not contain this element at the time the render event is fired.
The specified HTML element used will not participate in any layout
scheme that the Component may use. It is just HTML. Layouts operate on child
items.
Add either the x-hidden or the x-hide-display CSS class to prevent a brief flicker of the content before it
is rendered to the panel.
Available since: 3.4.0
The default Ext.Element#getAlignToXY anchor position value for this menu relative to its element of origin. Used in conjunction with showBy.
Defaults to: "tl-bl?"
Available since: Ext JS 4.1.3
The default xtype of child Components to create in this Container when a child item is specified as a raw configuration object, rather than as an instantiated Component.
Defaults to: "panel"
Available since: 2.3.0
This option is a means of applying default settings to all added items whether added through the items config or via the add or insert methods.
Defaults are applied to both config objects and instantiated components conditionally so as not to override existing properties in the item (see Ext.applyIf).
If the defaults option is specified as a function, then the function will be called
using this Container as the scope (this reference) and passing the added item as
the first parameter. Any resulting object from that call is then applied to the item
as default properties.
For example, to automatically apply padding to the body of each of a set of
contained Ext.panel.Panel items, you could pass:
defaults: {bodyStyle:'padding:15px'}.
Usage:
defaults: { // defaults are applied to items, not the container
autoScroll: true
},
items: [
// default will not be applied here, panel1 will be autoScroll: false
{
xtype: 'panel',
id: 'panel1',
autoScroll: false
},
// this component will have autoScroll: true
new Ext.panel.Panel({
id: 'panel2'
})
]
Available since: 2.3.0
True to move any component to the detachedBody when the component is removed from this container. This option is only applicable when the component is not destroyed while being removed, see autoDestroy and remove. If this option is set to false, the DOM of the component will remain in the current place until it is explicitly moved.
Defaults to: true
Available since: 4.1.0
true to disable the component.
Defaults to: false
Available since: 2.3.0
CSS class to add when the Component is disabled.
Defaults to: 'x-item-disabled'
Available since: 4.0.0
Specify as true to make a floating Component draggable using the Component's encapsulating element as the drag handle.
This may also be specified as a config object for the ComponentDragger which is instantiated to perform dragging.
For example to create a Component which may only be dragged around using a certain internal element as the drag handle, use the delegate option:
new Ext.Component({
constrain: true,
floating: true,
style: {
backgroundColor: '#fff',
border: '1px solid black'
},
html: '<h1 style="cursor:move">The title</h1><p>The content</p>',
draggable: {
delegate: 'h1'
}
}).show();
Defaults to: false
Available since: 4.0.0
Overrides: Ext.AbstractComponent.draggable
Specify as true to float the Component outside of the document flow using CSS absolute positioning.
Components such as Windows and Menus are floating by default.
Floating Components that are programatically rendered will register themselves with the global ZIndexManager
Floating Components as child items of a Container
A floating Component may be used as a child item of a Container. This just allows the floating Component to seek a ZIndexManager by examining the ownerCt chain.
When configured as floating, Components acquire, at render time, a ZIndexManager which manages a stack of related floating Components. The ZIndexManager brings a single floating Component to the top of its stack when the Component's toFront method is called.
The ZIndexManager is found by traversing up the ownerCt chain to find an ancestor which itself is floating. This is so that descendant floating Components of floating Containers (Such as a ComboBox dropdown within a Window) can have its zIndex managed relative to any siblings, but always above that floating ancestor Container.
If no floating ancestor is found, a floating Component registers itself with the default ZIndexManager.
Floating components do not participate in the Container's layout. Because of this, they are not rendered until you explicitly show them.
After rendering, the ownerCt reference is deleted, and the floatParent property is set to the found floating ancestor Container. If no floating ancestor Container was found the floatParent property will not be set.
Defaults to: false
Available since: 4.0.0
Overrides: Ext.AbstractComponent.floating
Specifies whether the floated component should be automatically focused when it is brought to the front.
Defaults to: true
Available since: 4.0.0
When inside FormPanel, any component configured with formBind: true will
be enabled/disabled depending on the validity state of the form.
See Ext.form.Panel for more information and example.
Defaults to: false
Available since: 4.1.1
Specify as true to have the Component inject framing elements within the Component at render time to provide a
graphical rounded frame around the Component content.
This is only necessary when running on outdated, or non standard-compliant browsers such as Microsoft's Internet Explorer prior to version 9 which do not support rounded corners natively.
The extra space taken up by this framing is available from the read only property frameSize.
Available since: 4.0.0
The height of this component in pixels.
The height of this component in pixels.
Available since: 4.0.0
A String which specifies how this Component's encapsulating DOM element will be hidden. Values may be:
'display': The Component will be hidden using thedisplay: nonestyle.'visibility': The Component will be hidden using thevisibility: hiddenstyle.'offsets': The Component will be hidden by absolutely positioning it out of the visible area of the document. This is useful when a hidden Component must maintain measurable dimensions. Hiding usingdisplayresults in a Component having zero dimensions.
Defaults to: 'display'
Available since: 1.1.0
An HTML fragment, or a DomHelper specification to use as the layout element content. The HTML content is added after the component is rendered, so the document will not contain this HTML at the time the render event is fired. This content is inserted into the body before any configured contentEl is appended.
Defaults to: ''
Available since: 3.4.0
The unique id of this component instance.
It should not be necessary to use this configuration except for singleton objects in your application. Components
created with an id may be accessed globally using Ext.getCmp.
Instead of using assigned ids, use the itemId config, and ComponentQuery which provides selector-based searching for Sencha Components analogous to DOM querying. The Container class contains shortcut methods to query its descendant Components by selector.
Note that this id will also be used as the element id for the containing HTML element that is rendered to the
page for this component. This allows you to write id-based CSS rules to style the specific instance of this
component uniquely, and also to select sub-elements using this component's id as the parent.
Note: To avoid complications imposed by a unique id also see itemId.
Note: To access the container of a Component see ownerCt.
Defaults to an auto-assigned id.
Available since: 1.1.0
An itemId can be used as an alternative way to get a reference to a component when no object reference is
available. Instead of using an id with Ext.getCmp, use itemId with
Ext.container.Container.getComponent which will retrieve
itemId's or id's. Since itemId's are an index to the container's internal MixedCollection, the
itemId is scoped locally to the container -- avoiding potential conflicts with Ext.ComponentManager
which requires a unique id.
var c = new Ext.panel.Panel({ //
height: 300,
renderTo: document.body,
layout: 'auto',
items: [
{
itemId: 'p1',
title: 'Panel 1',
height: 150
},
{
itemId: 'p2',
title: 'Panel 2',
height: 150
}
]
})
p1 = c.getComponent('p1'); // not the same as Ext.getCmp()
p2 = p1.ownerCt.getComponent('p2'); // reference via a sibling
Also see id, Ext.container.Container.query, Ext.container.Container.down and
Ext.container.Container.child.
Note: to access the container of an item see ownerCt.
Available since: 3.4.0
A single item, or an array of child Components to be added to this container
Unless configured with a layout, a Container simply renders child Components serially into its encapsulating element and performs no sizing or positioning upon them.
Example:
// specifying a single item
items: {...},
layout: 'fit', // The single items is sized to fit
// specifying multiple items
items: [{...}, {...}],
layout: 'hbox', // The items are arranged horizontally
Each item may be:
- A Component
- A Component configuration object
If a configuration object is specified, the actual type of Component to be instantiated my be indicated by using the xtype option.
Every Component class has its own xtype.
If an xtype is not explicitly specified, the
defaultType for the Container is used, which by default is usually panel.
Notes:
Ext uses lazy rendering. Child Components will only be rendered should it become necessary. Items are automatically laid out when they are first shown (no sizing is done while hidden), or in response to a doLayout call.
Do not specify contentEl or
html with items.
Available since: 2.3.0
Important: In order for child items to be correctly sized and
positioned, typically a layout manager must be specified through
the layout configuration option.
The sizing and positioning of child items is the responsibility of the Container's layout manager which creates and manages the type of layout you have in mind. For example:
If the layout configuration is not explicitly specified for a general purpose container (e.g. Container or Panel) the default layout manager will be used which does nothing but render child components sequentially into the Container (no sizing or positioning will be performed in this situation).
layout may be specified as either as an Object or as a String:
Specify as an Object
Example usage:
layout: {
type: 'vbox',
align: 'left'
}
type
The layout type to be used for this container. If not specified, a default Ext.layout.container.Auto will be created and used.
Valid layout
typevalues are listed in Ext.enums.Layout.Layout specific configuration properties
Additional layout specific configuration properties may also be specified. For complete details regarding the valid config options for each layout type, see the layout class corresponding to the
typespecified.
Specify as a String
Example usage:
layout: 'vbox'
layout
The layout
typeto be used for this container (see Ext.enums.Layout for list of valid values).Additional layout specific configuration properties. For complete details regarding the valid config options for each layout type, see the layout class corresponding to the
layoutspecified.
Configuring the default layout type
If a certain Container class has a default layout (For example a Toolbar
with a default Box layout), then to simply configure the default layout,
use an object, but without the type property:
xtype: 'toolbar',
layout: {
pack: 'center'
}
Available since: 2.3.0
A config object containing one or more event handlers to be added to this object during initialization. This should be a valid listeners config object as specified in the addListener example for attaching multiple handlers at once.
DOM events from Ext JS Components
While some Ext JS Component classes export selected DOM events (e.g. "click", "mouseover" etc), this is usually
only done when extra value can be added. For example the DataView's itemclick event passing the node clicked on. To access DOM events directly from a
child element of a Component, we need to specify the element option to identify the Component property to add a
DOM listener to:
new Ext.panel.Panel({
width: 400,
height: 200,
dockedItems: [{
xtype: 'toolbar'
}],
listeners: {
click: {
element: 'el', //bind to the underlying el property on the panel
fn: function(){ console.log('click el'); }
},
dblclick: {
element: 'body', //bind to the underlying body property on the panel
fn: function(){ console.log('dblclick body'); }
}
}
});
Available since: 1.1.0
A configuration object or an instance of a Ext.ComponentLoader to load remote content for this Component.
Ext.create('Ext.Component', {
loader: {
url: 'content.html',
autoLoad: true
},
renderTo: Ext.getBody()
});
Available since: 4.0.0
Specifies the margin for this component. The margin can be a single numeric value to apply to all sides or it can be a CSS style specification for each style, for example: '10 5 3 10' (top, right, bottom, left).
Available since: 4.0.0
The maximum value in pixels which this Component will set its height to.
Warning: This will override any size management applied by layout managers.

Warning: This will override any size management applied by layout managers.
Available since: 4.0.0
An optional extra CSS class that will be added to this component's Element when the mouse moves over the Element, and removed when the mouse moves out. This can be useful for adding customized 'active' or 'hover' styles to the component or any of its children using standard CSS rules.
Defaults to: ''
Available since: 2.3.0
Possible values are:
* 'auto' to enable automatic horizontal scrollbar (overflow-x: 'auto').
* 'scroll' to always enable horizontal scrollbar (overflow-x: 'scroll').
The default is overflow-x: 'hidden'. This should not be combined with autoScroll.
Available since: 4.1.0
Possible values are:
* 'auto' to enable automatic vertical scrollbar (overflow-y: 'auto').
* 'scroll' to always enable vertical scrollbar (overflow-y: 'scroll').
The default is overflow-y: 'hidden'. This should not be combined with autoScroll.
Available since: 4.1.0
Specifies the padding for this component. The padding can be a single numeric value to apply to all sides or it can be a CSS style specification for each style, for example: '10 5 3 10' (top, right, bottom, left).
Available since: 4.0.0
An array of plugins to be added to this component. Can also be just a single plugin instead of array.
Plugins provide custom functionality for a component. The only requirement for
a valid plugin is that it contain an init method that accepts a reference of type Ext.Component. When a component
is created, if any plugins are available, the component will call the init method on each plugin, passing a
reference to itself. Each plugin can then call methods or respond to events on the component as needed to provide
its functionality.
Plugins can be added to component by either directly referencing the plugin instance:
plugins: [Ext.create('Ext.grid.plugin.CellEditing', {clicksToEdit: 1})],
By using config object with ptype:
plugins: [{ptype: 'cellediting', clicksToEdit: 1}],
Or with just a ptype:
plugins: ['cellediting', 'gridviewdragdrop'],
See Ext.enums.Plugin for list of all ptypes.
Available since: 2.3.0
Defines the region inside border layout.
Possible values:
- north - Positions component at top.
- south - Positions component at bottom.
- east - Positions component at right.
- west - Positions component at left.
- center - Positions component at the remaining space.
There must be a component with
region: "center"in every border layout.
Available since: 4.1.1
The data used by renderTpl in addition to the following property values of the component:
- id
- ui
- uiCls
- baseCls
- componentCls
- frame
See renderSelectors and childEls for usage examples.
Available since: 4.0.7
An object containing properties specifying DomQuery selectors which identify child elements created by the render process.
After the Component's internal structure is rendered according to the renderTpl, this object is iterated through,
and the found Elements are added as properties to the Component using the renderSelector property name.
For example, a Component which renders a title and description into its element:
Ext.create('Ext.Component', {
renderTo: Ext.getBody(),
renderTpl: [
'<h1 class="title">{title}</h1>',
'<p>{desc}</p>'
],
renderData: {
title: "Error",
desc: "Something went wrong"
},
renderSelectors: {
titleEl: 'h1.title',
descEl: 'p'
},
listeners: {
afterrender: function(cmp){
// After rendering the component will have a titleEl and descEl properties
cmp.titleEl.setStyle({color: "red"});
}
}
});
For a faster, but less flexible, alternative that achieves the same end result (properties for child elements on the Component after render), see childEls and addChildEls.
Available since: 4.0.0
Specify the id of the element, a DOM element or an existing Element that this component will be rendered into.
Notes:
Do not use this option if the Component is to be a child item of a Container. It is the responsibility of the Container's layout manager to render and manage its child items.
When using this config, a call to render() is not required.
See also: render.
Available since: 2.3.0
End Definitions
An XTemplate used to create the internal structure inside this Component's encapsulating Element.
You do not normally need to specify this. For the base classes Ext.Component and
Ext.container.Container, this defaults to null which means that they will be initially rendered
with no internal structure; they render their Element empty. The more specialized Ext JS and Sencha Touch
classes which use a more complex DOM structure, provide their own template definitions.
This is intended to allow the developer to create application-specific utility Components with customized internal structure.
Upon rendering, any created child elements may be automatically imported into object properties using the renderSelectors and childEls options.
Defaults to: '{%this.renderContainer(out,values)%}'
Available since: 4.0.0
Overrides: Ext.AbstractComponent.renderTpl
Specify as true to apply a Resizer to this Component after rendering.
May also be specified as a config object to be passed to the constructor of Resizer
to override any defaults. By default the Component passes its minimum and maximum size, and uses

If this property is a number, it is interpreted as follows:
- 0: Neither width nor height depend on content. This is equivalent to
false. - 1: Width depends on content (shrink wraps), but height does not.
- 2: Height depends on content (shrink wraps), but width does not. The default.
- 3: Both width and height depend on content (shrink wrap). This is equivalent to
true.
In CSS terms, shrink-wrap width is analogous to an inline-block element as opposed to a block-level element. Some container layouts always shrink-wrap their children, effectively ignoring this property (e.g., Ext.layout.container.HBox, Ext.layout.container.VBox, Ext.layout.component.Dock).
Defaults to: 2
Available since: 4.1.0
An array of events that, when fired, should trigger this object to
save its state. Defaults to none. stateEvents may be any type
of event supported by this object, including browser or custom events
(e.g., ['click', 'customerchange']).
See stateful for an explanation of saving and
restoring object state.
Available since: 4.0.0
The unique id for this object to use for state management purposes.
See stateful for an explanation of saving and restoring state.
Available since: 4.0.0
A flag which causes the object to attempt to restore the state of internal properties from a saved state on startup. The object must have a stateId for state to be managed.
Auto-generated ids are not guaranteed to be stable across page loads and cannot be relied upon to save and restore the same state for a object.
For state saving to work, the state manager's provider must have been set to an implementation of Ext.state.Provider which overrides the set and get methods to save and recall name/value pairs. A built-in implementation, Ext.state.CookieProvider is available.
To set the state provider for the current page:
Ext.state.Manager.setProvider(new Ext.state.CookieProvider({
expires: new Date(new Date().getTime()+(1000*60*60*24*7)), //7 days from now
}));
A stateful object attempts to save state when one of the events listed in the stateEvents configuration fires.
To save state, a stateful object first serializes its state by calling getState.
The Component base class implements getState to save its width and height within the state only if they were initially configured, and have changed from the configured value.
The Panel class saves its collapsed state in addition to that.
The Grid class saves its column state in addition to its superclass state.
If there is more application state to be save, the developer must provide an implementation which first calls the superclass method to inherit the above behaviour, and then injects new properties into the returned object.
The value yielded by getState is passed to Ext.state.Manager.set which uses the configured Ext.state.Provider to save the object keyed by the stateId.
During construction, a stateful object attempts to restore its state by calling Ext.state.Manager.get passing the stateId
The resulting object is passed to applyState*. The default implementation of applyState simply copies properties into the object, but a developer may override this to support restoration of more complex application state.
You can perform extra processing on state save and restore by attaching handlers to the beforestaterestore, staterestore, beforestatesave and statesave events.
Defaults to: false

This property provides a shorter alternative to creating objects than using a full
class name. Using xtype is the most common way to define component instances,
especially in a container. For example, the items in a form containing text fields
could be created explicitly like so:
items: [
Ext.create('Ext.form.field.Text', {
fieldLabel: 'Foo'
}),
Ext.create('Ext.form.field.Text', {
fieldLabel: 'Bar'
}),
Ext.create('Ext.form.field.Number', {
fieldLabel: 'Num'
})
]
But by using xtype, the above becomes:
items: [
{
xtype: 'textfield',
fieldLabel: 'Foo'
},
{
xtype: 'textfield',
fieldLabel: 'Bar'
},
{
xtype: 'numberfield',
fieldLabel: 'Num'
}
]
When the xtype is common to many items, Ext.container.AbstractContainer.defaultType
is another way to specify the xtype for all items that don't have an explicit xtype:
defaultType: 'textfield',
items: [
{ fieldLabel: 'Foo' },
{ fieldLabel: 'Bar' },
{ fieldLabel: 'Num', xtype: 'numberfield' }
]
Each member of the items array is now just a "configuration object". These objects
are used to create and configure component instances. A configuration object can be
manually used to instantiate a component using Ext.widget:
var text1 = Ext.create('Ext.form.field.Text', {
fieldLabel: 'Foo'
});
// or alternatively:
var text1 = Ext.widget({
xtype: 'textfield',
fieldLabel: 'Foo'
});
This conversion of configuration objects into instantiated components is done when
a container is created as part of its {Ext.container.AbstractContainer.initComponent}
process. As part of the same process, the items array is converted from its raw
array form into a Ext.util.MixedCollection instance.
You can define your own xtype on a custom component by specifying
the xtype property in Ext.define. For example:
Ext.define('MyApp.PressMeButton', {
extend: 'Ext.button.Button',
xtype: 'pressmebutton',
text: 'Press Me'
});
Care should be taken when naming an xtype in a custom component because there is
a single, shared scope for all xtypes. Third part components should consider using
a prefix to avoid collisions.
Ext.define('Foo.form.CoolButton', {
extend: 'Ext.button.Button',
xtype: 'ux-coolbutton',
text: 'Cool!'
});
See Ext.enums.Widget for list of all available xtypes.

This object holds a key for any event that has a listener. The listener may be set directly on the instance, or on its class or a super class (via observe) or on the MVC EventBus. The values of this object are truthy (a non-zero number) and falsy (0 or undefined). They do not represent an exact count of listeners. The value for an event is truthy if the event must be fired and is falsy if there is no need to fire the event.
The intended use of this property is to avoid the expense of fireEvent calls when there are no listeners. This can be particularly helpful when one would otherwise have to call fireEvent hundreds or thousands of times. It is used like this:
if (this.hasListeners.foo) {
this.fireEvent('foo', this, arg1);
}

This is an internal flag that you use when creating custom components. By default this is set to true which means
that every component gets a mask when it's disabled. Components like FieldContainer, FieldSet, Field, Button, Tab
override this property to false since they want to implement custom disable logic.

This Component's owner Container (is set automatically when this Component is added to a Container).
Important. This is not a universal upwards navigation pointer. It indicates the Container which owns and manages this Component if any. There are other similar relationships such as the button which activates a menu, or the menu item which activated a submenu, or the column header which activated the column menu.
These differences are abstracted away by the up method.
Note: to access items within the Container see itemId.

Only present for floating Components after they have been rendered.
A reference to the ZIndexManager which is managing this Component's z-index.
The ZIndexManager maintains a stack of floating Component z-indices, and also provides a single modal mask which is insert just beneath the topmost visible modal floating Component.
Floating Components may be brought to the front or sent to the back of the z-index stack.
This defaults to the global ZIndexManager for floating Components that are programatically rendered.
For floating Components which are added to a Container, the ZIndexManager is acquired from the first ancestor Container found which is floating. If no floating ancestor is found, the global ZIndexManager is used.
See floating and zIndexParent
Available since: 4.0.0
Only present for floating Components which were inserted as child items of Containers, and which have a floating Container in their containment ancestry.
For floating Components which are child items of a Container, the zIndexParent will be a floating ancestor Container which is responsible for the base z-index value of all its floating descendants. It provides a ZIndexManager which provides z-indexing services for all its descendant floating Components.
Floating Components that are programatically rendered will not have a zIndexParent
property.
For example, the dropdown BoundList of a ComboBox which is in a Window will have the
Window as its zIndexParent, and will always show above that Window, wherever the Window is placed in the z-index stack.

Static Properties
Methods
Instance Methods Creates new Component. ...Creates new Component.
Available since: 1.1.0
Parameters
- config : Ext.Element/String/Object
The configuration options may be specified as either:
- an element : it is set as the internal element and its id used as the component id
- a string : it is assumed to be the id of an existing element and is used as the component id
- anything else : it is assumed to be a standard config object and is applied to the component
Returns
Overrides: Ext.AbstractComponent.constructor
Adds Component(s) to this Container. ...Adds Component(s) to this Container.
Description:
- Fires the beforeadd event before adding.
- The Container's default config values will be applied
accordingly (see
defaults for details).
- Fires the
add event after the component has been added.
Notes:
If the Container is already rendered when add
is called, it will render the newly added Component into its content area.
If the Container was configured with a size-managing layout manager,
the Container will recalculate its internal layout at this time too.
Note that the default layout manager simply renders child Components sequentially
into the content area and thereafter performs no sizing.
If adding multiple new child Components, pass them as an array to the add method,
so that only one layout recalculation is performed.
tb = new Ext.toolbar.Toolbar({
renderTo: document.body
}); // toolbar is rendered
// add multiple items.
// (defaultType for Toolbar is 'button')
tb.add([{text:'Button 1'}, {text:'Button 2'}]);
To inject components between existing ones, use the insert method.
Warning:
Components directly managed by the BorderLayout layout manager may not be removed
or added. See the Notes for BorderLayout for
more details.
Available since: 2.3.0
Parameters
- component : Ext.Component[]|Object[]/Ext.Component.../Object...
Either one or more Components to add or an Array of Components to add.
See items for additional information.
Returns
- Ext.Component[]/Ext.Component
The Components that were added.
addChildEls( )Adds each argument passed to this method to the childEls array. ...Adds each argument passed to this method to the childEls array.

Parameters
Returns
- Ext.Component

addClsWithUI( classes, skip )Adds a cls to the uiCls array, which will also call addUIClsToElement and adds to all elements of this
component. ...Adds a cls to the uiCls array, which will also call addUIClsToElement and adds to all elements of this
component.
Available since: 4.0.0
Parameters
addEvents( eventNames )Adds the specified events to the list of events which this Observable may fire. ...Adds the specified events to the list of events which this Observable may fire.
Available since: 1.1.0
Parameters
addFocusListener( )privateSets up the focus listener on this Component's focusEl if it has one. ...Sets up the focus listener on this Component's focusEl if it has one.
Form Components which must implicitly participate in tabbing order usually have a naturally focusable
element as their focusEl, and it is the DOM event of that receiving focus which drives
the Component's onFocus handling, and the DOM event of it being blurred which drives the onBlur handling.
If the focusEl is not naturally focusable, then the listeners are only added
if the FocusManager is enabled.
Available since: 4.1.0
Appends an event handler to this object. ...Appends an event handler to this object. For example:
myGridPanel.on("mouseover", this.onMouseOver, this);
The method also allows for a single argument to be passed which is a config object
containing properties which specify multiple events. For example:
myGridPanel.on({
cellClick: this.onCellClick,
mouseover: this.onMouseOver,
mouseout: this.onMouseOut,
scope: this // Important. Ensure "this" is correct during handler execution
});
One can also specify options for each event handler separately:
myGridPanel.on({
cellClick: {fn: this.onCellClick, scope: this, single: true},
mouseover: {fn: panel.onMouseOver, scope: panel}
});
Names of methods in a specified scope may also be used. Note that
scope MUST be specified to use this option:
myGridPanel.on({
cellClick: {fn: 'onCellClick', scope: this, single: true},
mouseover: {fn: 'onMouseOver', scope: panel}
});
Available since: 4.0.0
Parameters
- eventName : String/Object
The name of the event to listen for.
May also be an object who's property names are event names.
- fn : Function (optional)
The method the event invokes, or if scope is specified, the name* of the method within
the specified scope. Will be called with arguments
given to fireEvent plus the options parameter described below.
- scope : Object (optional)
The scope (this reference) in which the handler function is
executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event.
- options : Object (optional)
An object containing handler configuration.
Note: Unlike in ExtJS 3.x, the options object will also be passed as the last
argument to every event handler.
This object may contain any of the following properties:
- scope : Object
The scope (this reference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted,
defaults to the object which fired the event.
- delay : Number
The number of milliseconds to delay the invocation of the handler after the event fires.
- single : Boolean
True to add a handler to handle just the next firing of the event, and then remove itself.
- buffer : Number
Causes the handler to be scheduled to run in an Ext.util.DelayedTask delayed
by the specified number of milliseconds. If the event fires again within that time,
the original handler is not invoked, but the new handler is scheduled in its place.
- target : Ext.util.Observable
Only call the handler if the event was fired on the target Observable, not if the event
was bubbled up from a child Observable.
- element : String
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Components.
The name of a Component property which references an element to add a listener to.
This option is useful during Component construction to add DOM event listeners to elements of
Components which will exist only after the Component is rendered.
For example, to add a click listener to a Panel's body:
new Ext.panel.Panel({
title: 'The title',
listeners: {
click: this.handlePanelClick,
element: 'body'
}
});
- destroyable : Boolean (optional)
When specified as true, the function returns A Destroyable object. An object which implements the destroy method which removes all listeners added in this call.
Combining Options
Using the options argument, it is possible to combine different types of listeners:
A delayed, one-time listener.
myPanel.on('hide', this.handleClick, this, {
single: true,
delay: 100
});
Defaults to: false
Returns
- Object
Only when the destroyable option is specified.
A Destroyable object. An object which implements the destroy method which removes all listeners added in this call. For example:
this.btnListeners = = myButton.on({
destroyable: true
mouseover: function() { console.log('mouseover'); },
mouseout: function() { console.log('mouseout'); },
click: function() { console.log('click'); }
});
And when those listeners need to be removed:
Ext.destroy(this.btnListeners);
or
this.btnListeners.destroy();
Overrides: Ext.util.Observable.addListener

destroyed.
Available since: 4.0.0
Parameters
- item : Ext.util.Observable/Ext.Element
The item to which to add a listener/listeners.
- ename : Object/String
The event name, or an object containing event name properties.
- fn : Function (optional)
If the ename parameter was an event name, this is the handler function.
- scope : Object (optional)
If the ename parameter was an event name, this is the scope (this reference)
in which the handler function is executed.
- options : Object (optional)
If the ename parameter was an event name, this is the
addListener options.
Returns
- Object
Only when the destroyable option is specified.
A Destroyable object. An object which implements the destroy method which removes all listeners added in this call. For example:
this.btnListeners = = myButton.mon({
destroyable: true
mouseover: function() { console.log('mouseover'); },
mouseout: function() { console.log('mouseout'); },
click: function() { console.log('click'); }
});
And when those listeners need to be removed:
Ext.destroy(this.btnListeners);
or
this.btnListeners.destroy();

this
Performs custom animation on this object. ...Performs custom animation on this object.
This method is applicable to both the Component class and the Sprite
class. It performs animated transitions of certain properties of this object over a specified timeline.
Animating a Component
When animating a Component, the following properties may be specified in from, to, and keyframe objects:
x - The Component's page X position in pixels.
y - The Component's page Y position in pixels
left - The Component's left value in pixels.
top - The Component's top value in pixels.
width - The Component's width value in pixels.
width - The Component's width value in pixels.
dynamic - Specify as true to update the Component's layout (if it is a Container) at every frame of the animation.
Use sparingly as laying out on every intermediate size change is an expensive operation.
For example, to animate a Window to a new size, ensuring that its internal layout and any shadow is correct:
myWindow = Ext.create('Ext.window.Window', {
title: 'Test Component animation',
width: 500,
height: 300,
layout: {
type: 'hbox',
align: 'stretch'
},
items: [{
title: 'Left: 33%',
margins: '5 0 5 5',
flex: 1
}, {
title: 'Left: 66%',
margins: '5 5 5 5',
flex: 2
}]
});
myWindow.show();
myWindow.header.el.on('click', function() {
myWindow.animate({
to: {
width: (myWindow.getWidth() == 500) ? 700 : 500,
height: (myWindow.getHeight() == 300) ? 400 : 300
}
});
});
For performance reasons, by default, the internal layout is only updated when the Window reaches its final "to"
size. If dynamic updating of the Window's child Components is required, then configure the animation with
dynamic: true and the two child items will maintain their proportions during the animation.

from the current method, for example: this.callOverridden(arguments)
Returns
- Object
Returns the result of calling the overridden method
Call the "parent" method of the current method. ...Call the "parent" method of the current method. That is the method previously
overridden by derivation or by an override (see Ext.define).
Ext.define('My.Base', {
constructor: function (x) {
this.x = x;
},
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return x;
}
}
});
Ext.define('My.Derived', {
extend: 'My.Base',
constructor: function () {
this.callParent([21]);
}
});
var obj = new My.Derived();
alert(obj.x); // alerts 21
This can be used with an override as follows:
Ext.define('My.DerivedOverride', {
override: 'My.Derived',
constructor: function (x) {
this.callParent([x*2]); // calls original My.Derived constructor
}
});
var obj = new My.Derived();
alert(obj.x); // now alerts 42
This also works with static methods.
Ext.define('My.Derived2', {
extend: 'My.Base',
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return this.callParent([x*2]); // calls My.Base.method
}
}
});
alert(My.Base.method(10); // alerts 10
alert(My.Derived2.method(10); // alerts 20
Lastly, it also works with overridden static methods.
Ext.define('My.Derived2Override', {
override: 'My.Derived2',
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return this.callParent([x*2]); // calls My.Derived2.method
}
}
});
alert(My.Derived2.method(10); // now alerts 40
To override a method and replace it and also call the superclass method, use
callSuper. This is often done to patch a method to fix a bug.
Available since: 4.0.0
Parameters
- args : Array/Arguments
The arguments, either an array or the arguments object
from the current method, for example: this.callParent(arguments)
Returns
- Object
Returns the result of calling the parent method
This method is used by an override to call the superclass method but bypass any
overridden method. ...This method is used by an override to call the superclass method but bypass any
overridden method. This is often done to "patch" a method that contains a bug
but for whatever reason cannot be fixed directly.
Consider:
Ext.define('Ext.some.Class', {
method: function () {
console.log('Good');
}
});
Ext.define('Ext.some.DerivedClass', {
method: function () {
console.log('Bad');
// ... logic but with a bug ...
this.callParent();
}
});
To patch the bug in DerivedClass.method, the typical solution is to create an
override:
Ext.define('App.paches.DerivedClass', {
override: 'Ext.some.DerivedClass',
method: function () {
console.log('Fixed');
// ... logic but with bug fixed ...
this.callSuper();
}
});
The patch method cannot use callParent to call the superclass method since
that would call the overridden method containing the bug. In other words, the
above patch would only produce "Fixed" then "Good" in the console log, whereas,
using callParent would produce "Fixed" then "Bad" then "Good".

initComponent( )privateprotectedtemplateThe initComponent template method is an important initialization step for a Component. ...The initComponent template method is an important initialization step for a Component. It is intended to be
implemented by each subclass of Ext.Component to provide any needed constructor logic. The
initComponent method of the class being created is called first, with each initComponent method
up the hierarchy to Ext.Component being called thereafter. This makes it easy to implement and,
if needed, override the constructor logic of the Component at any step in the hierarchy.
The initComponent method must contain a call to callParent in order
to ensure that the parent class' initComponent method is also called.
All config options passed to the constructor are applied to this before initComponent is called,
so you can simply access them with this.someOption.
The following example demonstrates using a dynamic string for the text of a button at the time of
instantiation of the class.
Ext.define('DynamicButtonText', {
extend: 'Ext.button.Button',
initComponent: function() {
this.text = new Date();
this.renderTo = Ext.getBody();
this.callParent();
}
});
Ext.onReady(function() {
Ext.create('DynamicButtonText');

Parameters
- index : Number
The index at which the Component will be inserted
into the Container's items collection
- component : Ext.Component/Object
The child Component to insert.
Ext uses lazy rendering, and will only render the inserted Component should
it become necessary.
A Component config object may be passed in order to avoid the overhead of
constructing a real Component object if lazy rendering might mean that the
inserted Component will not be rendered immediately. To take advantage of
this 'lazy instantiation', set the Ext.Component.xtype config
property to the registered type of the Component wanted.
For a list of all available xtypes, see Ext.enums.Widget.

isLayoutRoot( )protectedDetermines whether this Component is the root of a layout. ...Determines whether this Component is the root of a layout. This returns true if
this component can run its layout without assistance from or impact on its owner.
If this component cannot run its layout given these restrictions, false is returned
and its owner will be considered as the next candidate for the layout root.
Setting the _isLayoutRoot property to true causes this method to always
return true. This may be useful when updating a layout of a Container which shrink
wraps content, and you know that it will not change size, and so can safely be the
topmost participant in the layout run.
Available since: 4.1.0
isLayoutSuspended( ) : BooleanReturns true if layout is suspended for this component. ...Returns true if layout is suspended for this component. This can come from direct
suspension of this component's layout activity (Ext.Container.suspendLayout) or if one
of this component's containers is suspended.
Available since: 4.1.0
Returns
- Boolean
true layout of this component is suspended.
Returns true if this component is visible. ...Returns true if this component is visible.
Available since: 1.1.0
Parameters
- deep : Boolean (optional)
Pass true to interrogate the visibility status of all parent Containers to
determine whether this Component is truly visible to the user.
Generally, to determine whether a Component is hidden, the no argument form is needed. For example when creating
dynamically laid out UIs in a hidden Container before showing them.
Defaults to: false
Returns
- Boolean
true if this component is visible, false otherwise.
Tests whether or not this Component is of a specific xtype. ...Tests whether or not this Component is of a specific xtype. This can test whether this Component is descended
from the xtype (default) or whether it is directly of the xtype specified (shallow = true).
If using your own subclasses, be aware that a Component must register its own xtype to participate in
determination of inherited xtypes.
For a list of all available xtypes, see the Ext.Component header.
Example usage:
var t = new Ext.form.field.Text();
var isText = t.isXType('textfield'); // true
var isBoxSubclass = t.isXType('field'); // true, descended from Ext.form.field.Base
var isBoxInstance = t.isXType('field', true); // false, not a direct Ext.form.field.Base instance
Available since: 2.3.0
Parameters
- xtype : String
The xtype to check for this Component
- shallow : Boolean (optional)
true to check whether this Component is directly of the specified xtype, false to
check whether this Component is descended from the xtype.
Defaults to: false
Returns
- Boolean
true if this component descends from the specified xtype, false otherwise.

Shorthand for addListener. ...Shorthand for addListener.
Appends an event handler to this object. For example:
myGridPanel.on("mouseover", this.onMouseOver, this);
The method also allows for a single argument to be passed which is a config object
containing properties which specify multiple events. For example:
myGridPanel.on({
cellClick: this.onCellClick,
mouseover: this.onMouseOver,
mouseout: this.onMouseOut,
scope: this // Important. Ensure "this" is correct during handler execution
});
One can also specify options for each event handler separately:
myGridPanel.on({
cellClick: {fn: this.onCellClick, scope: this, single: true},
mouseover: {fn: panel.onMouseOver, scope: panel}
});
Names of methods in a specified scope may also be used. Note that
scope MUST be specified to use this option:
myGridPanel.on({
cellClick: {fn: 'onCellClick', scope: this, single: true},
mouseover: {fn: 'onMouseOver', scope: panel}
});
Available since: 1.1.0
Parameters
- eventName : String/Object
The name of the event to listen for.
May also be an object who's property names are event names.
- fn : Function (optional)
The method the event invokes, or if scope is specified, the name* of the method within
the specified scope. Will be called with arguments
given to fireEvent plus the options parameter described below.
- scope : Object (optional)
The scope (this reference) in which the handler function is
executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event.
- options : Object (optional)
An object containing handler configuration.
Note: Unlike in ExtJS 3.x, the options object will also be passed as the last
argument to every event handler.
This object may contain any of the following properties:
- scope : Object
The scope (this reference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted,
defaults to the object which fired the event.
- delay : Number
The number of milliseconds to delay the invocation of the handler after the event fires.
- single : Boolean
True to add a handler to handle just the next firing of the event, and then remove itself.
- buffer : Number
Causes the handler to be scheduled to run in an Ext.util.DelayedTask delayed
by the specified number of milliseconds. If the event fires again within that time,
the original handler is not invoked, but the new handler is scheduled in its place.
- target : Ext.util.Observable
Only call the handler if the event was fired on the target Observable, not if the event
was bubbled up from a child Observable.
- element : String
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Components.
The name of a Component property which references an element to add a listener to.
This option is useful during Component construction to add DOM event listeners to elements of
Components which will exist only after the Component is rendered.
For example, to add a click listener to a Panel's body:
new Ext.panel.Panel({
title: 'The title',
listeners: {
click: this.handlePanelClick,
element: 'body'
}
});
- destroyable : Boolean (optional)
When specified as true, the function returns A Destroyable object. An object which implements the destroy method which removes all listeners added in this call.
Combining Options
Using the options argument, it is possible to combine different types of listeners:
A delayed, one-time listener.
myPanel.on('hide', this.handleClick, this, {
single: true,
delay: 100
});
Defaults to: false
Returns
- Object
Only when the destroyable option is specified.
A Destroyable object. An object which implements the destroy method which removes all listeners added in this call. For example:
this.btnListeners = = myButton.on({
destroyable: true
mouseover: function() { console.log('mouseover'); },
mouseout: function() { console.log('mouseout'); },
click: function() { console.log('click'); }
});
And when those listeners need to be removed:
Ext.destroy(this.btnListeners);
or
this.btnListeners.destroy();

The scope originally specified for the handler. It must be the same as the
scope argument specified in the original call to addListener or the listener will not be removed.
removeManagedListener( item, ename, [fn], [scope] )Removes listeners that were added by the mon method. ...Removes listeners that were added by the mon method.
Available since: 4.0.0

render( [container], [position] )Renders the Component into the passed HTML element. ...Renders the Component into the passed HTML element.
If you are using a Container object to house this
Component, then do not use the render method.
A Container's child Components are rendered by that Container's
layout manager when the Container is first rendered.
If the Container is already rendered when a new child Component is added, you may need to call
the Container's doLayout to refresh the view which
causes any unrendered child Components to be rendered. This is required so that you can add
multiple child components if needed while only refreshing the layout once.
When creating complex UIs, it is important to remember that sizing and positioning
of child items is the responsibility of the Container's layout
manager. If you expect child items to be sized in response to user interactions, you must
configure the Container with a layout manager which creates and manages the type of layout you
have in mind.
Omitting the Container's layout config means that a basic
layout manager is used which does nothing but render child components sequentially into the
Container. No sizing or positioning will be performed in this situation.
Available since: 4.1.0
Parameters
- container : Ext.Element/HTMLElement/String (optional)
The element this Component should be
rendered into. If it is being created from existing markup, this should be omitted.
- position : String/Number (optional)
The element ID or DOM node index within the container before
which this component will be inserted (defaults to appending to the end of the container)

updateLayout( [options] )Updates this component's layout. ...
Creates new Component.
Available since: 1.1.0
Parameters
- config : Ext.Element/String/Object
The configuration options may be specified as either:
- an element : it is set as the internal element and its id used as the component id
- a string : it is assumed to be the id of an existing element and is used as the component id
- anything else : it is assumed to be a standard config object and is applied to the component
Returns
Overrides: Ext.AbstractComponent.constructor
Adds Component(s) to this Container.
Description:
- Fires the beforeadd event before adding.
- The Container's default config values will be applied
accordingly (see
defaultsfor details). - Fires the
addevent after the component has been added.
Notes:
If the Container is already rendered when add
is called, it will render the newly added Component into its content area.
If the Container was configured with a size-managing layout manager, the Container will recalculate its internal layout at this time too.
Note that the default layout manager simply renders child Components sequentially into the content area and thereafter performs no sizing.
If adding multiple new child Components, pass them as an array to the add method,
so that only one layout recalculation is performed.
tb = new Ext.toolbar.Toolbar({
renderTo: document.body
}); // toolbar is rendered
// add multiple items.
// (defaultType for Toolbar is 'button')
tb.add([{text:'Button 1'}, {text:'Button 2'}]);
To inject components between existing ones, use the insert method.
Warning:
Components directly managed by the BorderLayout layout manager may not be removed or added. See the Notes for BorderLayout for more details.
Available since: 2.3.0
Parameters
- component : Ext.Component[]|Object[]/Ext.Component.../Object...

Available since: 2.3.0
Parameters
Returns
- Ext.Component
Returns the Component to allow method chaining.
Adds a CSS class to the top level element representing this component.
Available since: 4.0.0
Parameters
Returns
- Ext.Component
Returns the Component to allow method chaining.
Adds a cls to the uiCls array, which will also call addUIClsToElement and adds to all elements of this
component.
Available since: 4.0.0
Parameters
Adds the specified events to the list of events which this Observable may fire.
Available since: 1.1.0
Parameters
Sets up the focus listener on this Component's focusEl if it has one.
Form Components which must implicitly participate in tabbing order usually have a naturally focusable
element as their focusEl, and it is the DOM event of that receiving focus which drives
the Component's onFocus handling, and the DOM event of it being blurred which drives the onBlur handling.
If the focusEl is not naturally focusable, then the listeners are only added if the FocusManager is enabled.
Available since: 4.1.0
Appends an event handler to this object. For example:
myGridPanel.on("mouseover", this.onMouseOver, this);
The method also allows for a single argument to be passed which is a config object containing properties which specify multiple events. For example:
myGridPanel.on({
cellClick: this.onCellClick,
mouseover: this.onMouseOver,
mouseout: this.onMouseOut,
scope: this // Important. Ensure "this" is correct during handler execution
});
One can also specify options for each event handler separately:
myGridPanel.on({
cellClick: {fn: this.onCellClick, scope: this, single: true},
mouseover: {fn: panel.onMouseOver, scope: panel}
});
Names of methods in a specified scope may also be used. Note that
scope MUST be specified to use this option:
myGridPanel.on({
cellClick: {fn: 'onCellClick', scope: this, single: true},
mouseover: {fn: 'onMouseOver', scope: panel}
});
Available since: 4.0.0
Parameters
- eventName : String/Object
The name of the event to listen for. May also be an object who's property names are event names.
- fn : Function (optional)
The method the event invokes, or if
scopeis specified, the name* of the method within the specifiedscope. Will be called with arguments given to fireEvent plus theoptionsparameter described below. - scope : Object (optional)
The scope (
thisreference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event. - options : Object (optional)
An object containing handler configuration.
Note: Unlike in ExtJS 3.x, the options object will also be passed as the last argument to every event handler.
This object may contain any of the following properties:
- scope : Object
The scope (
thisreference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event. - delay : Number
The number of milliseconds to delay the invocation of the handler after the event fires.
- single : Boolean
True to add a handler to handle just the next firing of the event, and then remove itself.
- buffer : Number
Causes the handler to be scheduled to run in an Ext.util.DelayedTask delayed by the specified number of milliseconds. If the event fires again within that time, the original handler is not invoked, but the new handler is scheduled in its place.
- target : Ext.util.Observable
Only call the handler if the event was fired on the target Observable, not if the event was bubbled up from a child Observable.
- element : String
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Components. The name of a Component property which references an element to add a listener to.
This option is useful during Component construction to add DOM event listeners to elements of Components which will exist only after the Component is rendered. For example, to add a click listener to a Panel's body:
new Ext.panel.Panel({ title: 'The title', listeners: { click: this.handlePanelClick, element: 'body' } }); - destroyable : Boolean (optional)
When specified as
true, the function returns ADestroyableobject. An object which implements thedestroymethod which removes all listeners added in this call.Combining Options
Using the options argument, it is possible to combine different types of listeners:
A delayed, one-time listener.
myPanel.on('hide', this.handleClick, this, { single: true, delay: 100 });Defaults to:
false
- scope : Object
Returns
- Object
Only when the
destroyableoption is specified.A
Destroyableobject. An object which implements thedestroymethod which removes all listeners added in this call. For example:this.btnListeners = = myButton.on({ destroyable: true mouseover: function() { console.log('mouseover'); }, mouseout: function() { console.log('mouseout'); }, click: function() { console.log('click'); } });And when those listeners need to be removed:
Ext.destroy(this.btnListeners);or
this.btnListeners.destroy();

- ename : Object/String
The event name, or an object containing event name properties.
- fn : Function (optional)
If the
enameparameter was an event name, this is the handler function. - scope : Object (optional)
If the
enameparameter was an event name, this is the scope (thisreference) in which the handler function is executed. - options : Object (optional)
If the
enameparameter was an event name, this is the addListener options.
Returns
- Object
Only when the
destroyableoption is specified.A

this
Performs custom animation on this object.
This method is applicable to both the Component class and the Sprite class. It performs animated transitions of certain properties of this object over a specified timeline.
Animating a Component
When animating a Component, the following properties may be specified in from, to, and keyframe objects:
x- The Component's page X position in pixels.y- The Component's page Y position in pixelsleft- The Component'sleftvalue in pixels.top- The Component'stopvalue in pixels.width- The Component'swidthvalue in pixels.width- The Component'swidthvalue in pixels.dynamic- Specify as true to update the Component's layout (if it is a Container) at every frame of the animation. Use sparingly as laying out on every intermediate size change is an expensive operation.
For example, to animate a Window to a new size, ensuring that its internal layout and any shadow is correct:
myWindow = Ext.create('Ext.window.Window', {
title: 'Test Component animation',
width: 500,
height: 300,
layout: {
type: 'hbox',
align: 'stretch'
},
items: [{
title: 'Left: 33%',
margins: '5 0 5 5',
flex: 1
}, {
title: 'Left: 66%',
margins: '5 5 5 5',
flex: 2
}]
});
myWindow.show();
myWindow.header.el.on('click', function() {
myWindow.animate({
to: {
width: (myWindow.getWidth() == 500) ? 700 : 500,
height: (myWindow.getHeight() == 300) ? 400 : 300
}
});
});
For performance reasons, by default, the internal layout is only updated when the Window reaches its final "to"
size. If dynamic updating of the Window's child Components is required, then configure the animation with
dynamic: true and the two child items will maintain their proportions during the animation.

This method has been deprecated
as of 4.1. Use callParent instead.
Available since: 4.0.0
Parameters
- args : Array/Arguments
The arguments, either an array or the
argumentsobject from the current method, for example:this.callOverridden(arguments)
Returns
- Object
Returns the result of calling the overridden method
Call the "parent" method of the current method. That is the method previously overridden by derivation or by an override (see Ext.define).
Ext.define('My.Base', {
constructor: function (x) {
this.x = x;
},
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return x;
}
}
});
Ext.define('My.Derived', {
extend: 'My.Base',
constructor: function () {
this.callParent([21]);
}
});
var obj = new My.Derived();
alert(obj.x); // alerts 21
This can be used with an override as follows:
Ext.define('My.DerivedOverride', {
override: 'My.Derived',
constructor: function (x) {
this.callParent([x*2]); // calls original My.Derived constructor
}
});
var obj = new My.Derived();
alert(obj.x); // now alerts 42
This also works with static methods.
Ext.define('My.Derived2', {
extend: 'My.Base',
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return this.callParent([x*2]); // calls My.Base.method
}
}
});
alert(My.Base.method(10); // alerts 10
alert(My.Derived2.method(10); // alerts 20
Lastly, it also works with overridden static methods.
Ext.define('My.Derived2Override', {
override: 'My.Derived2',
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return this.callParent([x*2]); // calls My.Derived2.method
}
}
});
alert(My.Derived2.method(10); // now alerts 40
To override a method and replace it and also call the superclass method, use callSuper. This is often done to patch a method to fix a bug.
Available since: 4.0.0
Parameters
- args : Array/Arguments
The arguments, either an array or the
argumentsobject from the current method, for example:this.callParent(arguments)
Returns
- Object
Returns the result of calling the parent method
This method is used by an override to call the superclass method but bypass any overridden method. This is often done to "patch" a method that contains a bug but for whatever reason cannot be fixed directly.
Consider:
Ext.define('Ext.some.Class', {
method: function () {
console.log('Good');
}
});
Ext.define('Ext.some.DerivedClass', {
method: function () {
console.log('Bad');
// ... logic but with a bug ...
this.callParent();
}
});
To patch the bug in DerivedClass.method, the typical solution is to create an
override:
Ext.define('App.paches.DerivedClass', {
override: 'Ext.some.DerivedClass',
method: function () {
console.log('Fixed');
// ... logic but with bug fixed ...
this.callSuper();
}
});
The patch method cannot use callParent to call the superclass method since
that would call the overridden method containing the bug. In other words, the
above patch would only produce "Fixed" then "Good" in the console log, whereas,
using callParent would produce "Fixed" then "Bad" then "Good".
Available since: Ext JS 4.1.3
Parameters
- args : Array/Arguments

Parameters
- silent : Boolean (optional)
Passing
truewill suppress theenableevent from being fired.Defaults to:
false
Returns
Overrides: Ext.AbstractComponent.enable
Enables events fired by this Observable to bubble up an owner hierarchy by calling this.getBubbleTarget() if
present. There is no implementation in the Observable base class.
This is commonly used by Ext.Components to bubble events to owner Containers. See Ext.Component.getBubbleTarget. The default implementation in Ext.Component returns the Component's immediate owner. But if a known target is required, this can be overridden to access the required target more quickly.
Example:
Ext.define('Ext.overrides.form.field.Base', {
override: 'Ext.form.field.Base',
// Add functionality to Field's initComponent to enable the change event to bubble
initComponent: function () {
this.callParent();
this.enableBubble('change');
}
});
var myForm = Ext.create('Ext.form.Panel', {
title: 'User Details',
items: [{
...
}],
listeners: {
change: function() {
// Title goes red if form has been modified.
myForm.header.setStyle('color', 'red');
}
}
});

The initComponent template method is an important initialization step for a Component. It is intended to be implemented by each subclass of Ext.Component to provide any needed constructor logic. The initComponent method of the class being created is called first, with each initComponent method up the hierarchy to Ext.Component being called thereafter. This makes it easy to implement and, if needed, override the constructor logic of the Component at any step in the hierarchy.
The initComponent method must contain a call to callParent in order to ensure that the parent class' initComponent method is also called.
All config options passed to the constructor are applied to this before initComponent is called,
so you can simply access them with this.someOption.
The following example demonstrates using a dynamic string for the text of a button at the time of instantiation of the class.
Ext.define('DynamicButtonText', {
extend: 'Ext.button.Button',
initComponent: function() {
this.text = new Date();
this.renderTo = Ext.getBody();
this.callParent();
}
});
Ext.onReady(function() {
Ext.create('DynamicButtonText');
});
Available since: 1.1.0
This is a template method. a hook into the functionality of this class. Feel free to override it in child classes.

Inserts a Component into this Container at a specified index. Fires the beforeadd event before inserting, then fires the add event after the Component has been inserted.
Available since: 2.3.0
Parameters
- index : Number
The index at which the Component will be inserted into the Container's items collection
- component : Ext.Component/Object
The child Component to insert.
Ext uses lazy rendering, and will only render the inserted Component should it become necessary.
A Component config object may be passed in order to avoid the overhead of constructing a real Component object if lazy rendering might mean that the inserted Component will not be rendered immediately. To take advantage of this 'lazy instantiation', set the Ext.Component.xtype config property to the registered type of the Component wanted.
For a list of all available xtypes, see Ext.enums.Widget.
Returns
- Ext.Component
component The Component (or config object) that was inserted with the Container's default config values applied.
Determines whether this Container is an ancestor of the passed Component.
This will return true if the passed Component is anywhere within the subtree
beneath this Container.

Determines whether this Component is the root of a layout. This returns true if
this component can run its layout without assistance from or impact on its owner.
If this component cannot run its layout given these restrictions, false is returned
and its owner will be considered as the next candidate for the layout root.
Setting the _isLayoutRoot property to true causes this method to always
return true. This may be useful when updating a layout of a Container which shrink
wraps content, and you know that it will not change size, and so can safely be the
topmost participant in the layout run.
Available since: 4.1.0
Returns true if layout is suspended for this component. This can come from direct
suspension of this component's layout activity (Ext.Container.suspendLayout) or if one
of this component's containers is suspended.

truelayout of this component is suspended.
Returns true if this component is visible.
Available since: 1.1.0
Parameters
- deep : Boolean (optional)
Pass
trueto interrogate the visibility status of all parent Containers to determine whether this Component is truly visible to the user.Generally, to determine whether a Component is hidden, the no argument form is needed. For example when creating dynamically laid out UIs in a hidden Container before showing them.
Defaults to:
false
Returns
- Boolean
trueif this component is visible,falseotherwise.
Tests whether or not this Component is of a specific xtype. This can test whether this Component is descended
from the xtype (default) or whether it is directly of the xtype specified (shallow = true).
If using your own subclasses, be aware that a Component must register its own xtype to participate in determination of inherited xtypes.
For a list of all available xtypes, see the Ext.Component header.
Example usage:
var t = new Ext.form.field.Text();
var isText = t.isXType('textfield'); // true
var isBoxSubclass = t.isXType('field'); // true, descended from Ext.form.field.Base
var isBoxInstance = t.isXType('field', true); // false, not a direct Ext.form.field.Base instance

- shallow : Boolean (optional)
trueto check whether this Component is directly of the specified xtype,falseto check whether this Component is descended from the xtype.Defaults to:
false
Returns
- Boolean
trueif this component descends from the specified xtype,falseotherwise.

mouseover: {fn: 'onMouseOver', scope: panel}
});
Available since: 1.1.0
Parameters
- eventName : String/Object
The name of the event to listen for. May also be an object who's property names are event names.
- fn : Function (optional)
The method the event invokes, or if
scopeis specified, the name* of the method within the specifiedscope. Will be called with arguments given to fireEvent plus theoptionsparameter described below. - scope : Object (optional)
The scope (
thisreference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event. - options : Object (optional)
An object containing handler configuration.
Note: Unlike in ExtJS 3.x, the options object will also be passed as the last argument to every event handler.
This object may contain any of the following properties:
- scope : Object
The scope (
thisreference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event. - delay : Number
The number of milliseconds to delay the invocation of the handler after the event fires.
- single : Boolean
True to add a handler to handle just the next firing of the event, and then remove itself.
- buffer : Number
Causes the handler to be scheduled to run in an Ext.util.DelayedTask delayed by the specified number of milliseconds. If the event fires again within that time, the original handler is not invoked, but the new handler is scheduled in its place.
- target : Ext.util.Observable
Only call the handler if the event was fired on the target Observable, not if the event was bubbled up from a child Observable.
- element : String
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Components. The name of a Component property which references an element to add a listener to.
This option is useful during Component construction to add DOM event listeners to elements of Components which will exist only after the Component is rendered. For example, to add a click listener to a Panel's body:
new Ext.panel.Panel({ title: 'The title', listeners: { click: this.handlePanelClick, element: 'body' } }); - destroyable : Boolean (optional)
When specified as
true, the function returns ADestroyableobject. An object which implements thedestroymethod which removes all listeners added in this call.Combining Options
Using the options argument, it is possible to combine different types of listeners:
A delayed, one-time listener.
myPanel.on('hide', this.handleClick, this, { single: true, delay: 100 });Defaults to:
false
- scope : Object
Returns
- Object
Only when the
destroyableoption is specified.A
Destroyableobject. An object which implements thedestroymethod which removes all listeners added in this call. For example:this.btnListeners = = myButton.on({ destroyable: true mouseover: function() { console.log('mouseover'); }, mouseout: function() { console.log('mouseout'); }, click: function() { console.log('click'); } });And when those listeners need to be removed:
Ext.destroy(this.btnListeners);or
this.btnListeners.destroy();

Available since: 4.0.5
Parameters
- cmp : Object
Relays selected events from the specified Observable as if the events were fired by this.
For example if you are extending Grid, you might decide to forward some events from store. So you can do this inside your initComponent:
this.relayEvents(this.getStore(), ['load']);
The grid instance will then have an observable 'load' event which will be passed the
parameters of the store's load event and any function fired with the grid's load event
would have access to the grid using the this keyword.

Parameters
Removes an event handler.
Available since: 1.1.0
Parameters
- eventName : String
The type of event the handler was associated with.
- fn : Function
The handler to remove. This must be a reference to the function passed into the addListener call.
- scope : Object (optional)
The scope originally specified for the handler. It must be the same as the scope argument specified in the original call to addListener or the listener will not be removed.
Removes listeners that were added by the mon method.
Available since: 4.0.0

Method which removes a specified UI from the components element.
Available since: 4.0.0
Renders the Component into the passed HTML element.
If you are using a Container object to house this Component, then do not use the render method.
A Container's child Components are rendered by that Container's layout manager when the Container is first rendered.
If the Container is already rendered when a new child Component is added, you may need to call the Container's doLayout to refresh the view which causes any unrendered child Components to be rendered. This is required so that you can add multiple child components if needed while only refreshing the layout once.
When creating complex UIs, it is important to remember that sizing and positioning of child items is the responsibility of the Container's layout manager. If you expect child items to be sized in response to user interactions, you must configure the Container with a layout manager which creates and manages the type of layout you have in mind.
Omitting the Container's layout config means that a basic layout manager is used which does nothing but render child components sequentially into the Container. No sizing or positioning will be performed in this situation.
Available since: 4.1.0
Parameters
- container : Ext.Element/HTMLElement/String (optional)
The element this Component should be rendered into. If it is being created from existing markup, this should be omitted.
- position : String/Number (optional)
The element ID or DOM node index within the container before which this component will be inserted (defaults to appending to the end of the container)
Resumes firing events (see suspendEvents).
If events were suspended using the queueSuspended parameter, then all events fired
during event suspension will be sent to any listeners now.
Available since: 2.3.0
