Ext.layout.container.Card

End Definitions

An optional extra CSS class that will be added to the container. This can be useful for adding customized styles to the container or any of its children using standard CSS rules. See Ext.Component.componentCls also.

Defaults to: Ext.baseCSSPrefix + 'fit-item'

Available since: 4.0.0

Overrides: Ext.layout.container.Container.itemCls

One of the following values:

• 0 if the layout should ignore overflow.
• 1 if the layout should be rerun if scrollbars are needed.
• 2 if the layout should also correct padding when overflowed.

Defaults to: 0

Available since: 4.1.0

Set to true to leave space for a vertical scrollbar (if the OS shows space-consuming scrollbars) regardless of whether a scrollbar is needed.

This is useful if content height changes during application usage, but you do not want the calculated width of child items to change when a scrollbar appears or disappears. The scrollbar will appear in the reserved space, and the calculated width of child Components will not change.

Defaults to: false

Available since: 4.1.0

An object which contains boolean properties specifying which properties are to be animated upon flush of child Component ContextItems. For example, Accordion would have:

 {
     y: true,
     height: true
 }

Overrides: Ext.util.ElementContainer.childEls

Defaults to: {}

Available since: 4.1.1

Used only during a layout run, this value indicates that a layout has finished its calculations. This flag is set to true prior to the call to calculate and should be set to false if this layout has more work to do.

Available since: 4.1.0

Returns flags indicating cross-browser handling of scrollHeight/Width. In particular, IE has issues with padding-bottom in a scrolling element (it does not include that padding in the scrollHeight). Also, margin-bottom on a child in a scrolling element can be lost.

All browsers seem to ignore margin-right on children and padding-right on the parent element (the one with the overflow)

This method returns a number with the follow bit positions set based on things not accounted for in scrollHeight and scrollWidth:

• 1: Scrolling element's padding-bottom is not included in scrollHeight.
• 2: Last child's margin-bottom is not included in scrollHeight.
• 4: Scrolling element's padding-right is not included in scrollWidth.
• 8: Child's margin-right is not included in scrollWidth.

To work around the margin-bottom issue, it is sufficient to create a 0px tall last child that will "hide" the margin. This can also be handled by wrapping the children in an element, again "hiding" the margin. Wrapping the elements is about the only way to preserve their right margins. This is the strategy used by Column layout.

To work around the padding-bottom problem, since it is comes from a style on the parent element, about the only simple fix is to create a last child with height equal to padding-bottom. To preserve the right padding, the sizing element needs to have a width that includes the right padding.

Parameters

• item : Object

Placeholder empty functions for subclasses to extend

Available since: 4.1.0

Sets references to elements inside the component.

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• el : Object
• id : Object

Called by an owning Panel before the Panel begins its collapse process. Most layouts will not need to override the default Ext.emptyFn implementation.

Available since: 4.1.0

Called by an owning Panel before the Panel begins its expand process. Most layouts will not need to override the default Ext.emptyFn implementation.

Available since: 4.1.0

In addition to work done by our base classes, containers benefit from some extra cached data. The following properties are added to the ownerContext:

• visibleItems: the result of getVisibleItems
• childItems: the ContextItem[] for each visible item
• targetContext: the ContextItem for the getTarget element

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• ownerContext : Object

Overrides: Ext.layout.Layout.beginLayout

Called before any calculation cycles to reset DOM values and prepare for calculation.

This is a write phase and DOM reads should be strictly avoided when overridding this method.

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• ownerContext : Ext.layout.ContextItem

  The context item for the layout's owner component.

Overrides: Ext.layout.container.Container.beginLayoutCycle

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• ownerContext : Object

Available since: 4.1.0

Called to perform the calculations for this layout. This method will be called at least once and may be called repeatedly if the done property is cleared before return to indicate that this layout is not yet done. The done property is always set to true before entering this method.

This is a read phase and DOM writes should be strictly avoided in derived classes. Instead, DOM writes need to be written to Ext.layout.ContextItem objects to be flushed at the next opportunity.

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• ownerContext : Ext.layout.ContextItem

  The context item for the layout's owner component.

Overrides: Ext.layout.Layout.calculate

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• ownerContext : Object
• dimensions : Object

Handles overflow processing for a container. This should be called once the layout has determined contentWidth/Height. In addition to the ownerContext passed to the calculate method, this method also needs the containerSize (the object returned by getContainerSize).

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• ownerContext : Ext.layout.ContextItem
• containerSize : Object
• dimensions : Number

  A bit mask for the overflow managed dimensions. The 0-bit is for width and the 1-bit is for height. In other words, a value of 1 would be only width, 2 would be only height and 3 would be both.

Call the original method that was previously overridden with override

Ext.define('My.Cat', {
    constructor: function() {
        alert("I'm a cat!");
    }
});

My.Cat.override({
    constructor: function() {
        alert("I'm going to be a cat!");

        this.callOverridden();

        alert("Meeeeoooowwww");
    }
});

var kitty = new My.Cat(); // alerts "I'm going to be a cat!"
                          // alerts "I'm a cat!"
                          // alerts "Meeeeoooowwww"

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.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 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 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

  The arguments, either an array or the arguments object from the current method, for example: this.callSuper(arguments)

Returns

• Object

  Returns the result of calling the superclass method

This method (if implemented) is called at the end of the cycle in which this layout completes (by not setting done to false in calculate). It is possible for the layout to complete and yet become invalid before the end of the cycle, in which case, this method will not be called. It is also possible for this method to be called and then later the layout becomes invalidated. This will result in calculate being called again, followed by another call to this method.

This is a read phase and DOM writes should be strictly avoided in derived classes. Instead, DOM writes need to be written to Ext.layout.ContextItem objects to be flushed at the next opportunity.

This method need not be implemented by derived classes and, in fact, should only be implemented when needed.

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• ownerContext : Ext.layout.ContextItem

  The context item for the layout's owner component.

Overrides: Ext.layout.Layout.completeLayout

Available since: 4.1.1

Available since: 3.4.0

Overrides: Ext.util.ElementContainer.destroy

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• out : Object
• renderData : Object

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• out : Object
• renderData : Object

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• out : Object
• renderData : Object

Creates an element that makes bottom/right body padding consistent across browsers. This element is sized based on the need for scrollbars in calculateOverflow. If the manageOverflow option is false, this element is not created.

See getScrollRangeFlags for more details.

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• out : Object
• renderData : Object

This method (if implemented) is called after all layouts have completed. In most ways this is similar to completeLayout. This call can cause this (or any layout) to be become invalid (see Ext.layout.Context.invalidate), but this is best avoided. This method is intended to be where final reads are made and so it is best to avoid invalidating layouts at this point whenever possible. Even so, this method can be used to perform final checks that may require all other layouts to be complete and then invalidate some results.

This is a read phase and DOM writes should be strictly avoided in derived classes. Instead, DOM writes need to be written to Ext.layout.ContextItem objects to be flushed at the next opportunity.

This method need not be implemented by derived classes and, in fact, should only be implemented when needed.

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• ownerContext : Ext.layout.ContextItem

  The context item for the layout's owner component.

Available since: 4.1.0

Overrides: Ext.layout.Layout.finishRender

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• target : Object
• items : Object

This method is called after all layouts are complete and their calculations flushed to the DOM. No further layouts will be run and this method is only called once per layout run. The base component layout caches lastComponentSize.

This is a write phase and DOM reads should be avoided if possible when overridding this method.

This method need not be implemented by derived classes and, in fact, should only be implemented when needed.

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• ownerContext : Ext.layout.ContextItem

  The context item for the layout's owner component.

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• itemContext : Object

Available since: 4.1.0

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• cls : Object

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• name : Object

Returns the container size (that of the target). Only the fixed-sized dimensions can be returned because the shrinkWrap dimensions are based on the contentWidth/Height as determined by the container layout.

If the calculateOverflow method is used and if manageOverflow is true, this may adjust the width/height by the size of scrollbars.

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• ownerContext : Ext.layout.ContextItem

  The owner's context item.

• inDom : Boolean (optional)

  True if the container size must be in the DOM.

  Defaults to: false

Returns

• Object

  The size

  • width : Number

    The width

  • height : Number

    The height

Returns the element into which extra functional DOM elements can be inserted. Defaults to the owner Component's encapsulating element.

May be overridden in Component layout managers which implement a component render target which must only contain child components.

Available since: 4.1.0

Returns

• Ext.Element

Returns the initial configuration passed to constructor when instantiating this class.

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• name : String (optional)

  Name of the config option to return.

Returns

• Object/Mixed

  The full config object or a single config value when name parameter specified.

Returns an object describing how this layout manages the size of the given component. This method must be implemented by any layout that manages components.

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• item : Ext.Component

Returns

• Object

  An object describing the sizing done by the layout for this item or null if the layout mimics the size policy of its ownerCt (e.g., 'fit' and 'card').

  • readsWidth : Boolean

    True if the natural/auto width of this component is used by the ownerLayout.

  • readsHeight : Boolean

    True if the natural/auto height of this component is used by the ownerLayout.

  • setsWidth : Boolean

    True if the ownerLayout set this component's width.

  • setsHeight : Boolean

    True if the ownerLayout set this component's height.

Overrides: Ext.layout.Layout.getItemSizePolicy

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• items : Object
• renderCfgs : Object

Returns an array of child components either for a render phase (Performed in the beforeLayout method of the layout's base class), or the layout phase (onLayout).

Available since: 4.0.0

Returns

• Ext.Component[]

  of child components

Overrides: Ext.layout.Layout.getLayoutItems

This method is used to offset the DOM position when checking whether the element is a certain child of the target. This is required in cases where the extra elements prepended to the target before any of the items. An example of this is when using labelAlign: 'top' on a field. The label appears first in the DOM before any child items are created, so when we check the position we need to add an extra offset. Containers that create an innerCt are exempt because this new element preserves the order

Available since: 4.1.2

Parameters

• position : Object

Overrides: Ext.layout.Layout.getPositionOffset

Available since: 4.1.0

Returns the element into which rendering must take place. Defaults to the owner Container's target element.

May be overridden in layout managers which implement an inner element.

Available since: 4.0.0

Returns

• Ext.Element

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• renderTpl : Object

Available since: 4.1.0

Parameters

• items : Object
• reverseProp : Object

Get the reference to the class from which this object was instantiated. Note that unlike self, this.statics() is scope-independent and it always returns the class from which it was called, regardless of what this points to during run-time

Ext.define('My.Cat', {
    statics: {
        totalCreated: 0,
        speciesName: 'Cat' // My.Cat.speciesName = 'Cat'
    },

    constructor: function() {
        var statics = this.statics();

        alert(statics.speciesName);     // always equals to 'Cat' no matter what 'this' refers to
                                        // equivalent to: My.Cat.speciesName

        alert(this.self.speciesName);   // dependent on 'this'

        statics.totalCreated++;
    },

    clone: function() {
        var cloned = new this.self;                      // dependent on 'this'

        cloned.groupName = this.statics().speciesName;   // equivalent to: My.Cat.speciesName

        return cloned;
    }
});


Ext.define('My.SnowLeopard', {
    extend: 'My.Cat',

    statics: {
        speciesName: 'Snow Leopard'     // My.SnowLeopard.speciesName = 'Snow Leopard'
    },

    constructor: function() {
        this.callParent();
    }
});

var cat = new My.Cat();                 // alerts 'Cat', then alerts 'Cat'

var snowLeopard = new My.SnowLeopard(); // alerts 'Cat', then alerts 'Snow Leopard'

var clone = snowLeopard.clone();
alert(Ext.getClassName(clone));         // alerts 'My.SnowLeopard'
alert(clone.groupName);                 // alerts 'Cat'

alert(My.Cat.totalCreated);             // alerts 3

});

var test = new My.cool.Class();

My.cool.Class.createAlias({
    method3: 'method1',
    method4: 'method2'
});

test.method3(); // test.method1()

My.cool.Class.createAlias('method5', 'method3');

test.method5(); // test.method3() -> test.method1()

Available since: 4.0.2

Parameters

• alias : String/Object

  The new method name, or an object to set multiple aliases. See flexSetter

• origin : String/Object

  The original method name

Available since: 4.1.1

Parameters

• config : Object

Get the current class' name in string format.

Ext.define('My.cool.Class', {
    constructor: function() {
        alert(this.self.getName()); // alerts 'My.cool.Class'
    }
});

My.cool.Class.getName(); // 'My.cool.Class'

Available since: 4.0.4

Returns

• String

  className

Adds members to class.

Available since: 4.0.2

Used internally by the mixins pre-processor

Available since: 4.1.1

Parameters

• name : Object
• mixinClass : Object

Available since: 4.1.1

Parameters

• fn : Object
• scope : Object

Override members of this class. Overridden methods can be invoked via callParent.

Ext.define('My.Cat', {
    constructor: function() {
        alert("I'm a cat!");
    }
});

My.Cat.override({
    constructor: function() {
        alert("I'm going to be a cat!");

        this.callParent(arguments);

        alert("Meeeeoooowwww");
    }
});

var kitty = new My.Cat(); // alerts "I'm going to be a cat!"
                          // alerts "I'm a cat!"
                          // alerts "Meeeeoooowwww"

As of 4.1, direct use of this method is deprecated. Use Ext.define instead:

Ext.define('My.CatOverride', {
    override: 'My.Cat',
    constructor: function() {
        alert("I'm going to be a cat!");

        this.callParent(arguments);

        alert("Meeeeoooowwww");
    }
});

The above accomplishes the same result but can be managed by the Ext.Loader which can properly order the override and its target class and the build process can determine whether the override is needed based on the required state of the target class (My.Cat).

Parameters

• members : Object

  The properties to add to this class. This should be specified as an object literal containing one or more properties.

Returns

• Ext.Base

  this class
