Terms, Icons, and Labels

Many classes have shortcut names used when creating (instantiating) a class with a configuration object. The shortcut name is referred to as an alias (or xtype if the class extends Ext.Component). The alias/xtype is listed next to the class name of applicable classes for quick reference.

Access Levels

Framework classes or their members may be specified as private or protected. Else, the class / member is public. Public, protected, and private are access descriptors used to convey how and when the class or class member should be used.

Member Types

Member Syntax

Below is an example class member that we can disect to show the syntax of a class member (the lookupComponent method as viewed from the Ext.button.Button class in this case).

lookupComponent ( item ) : Ext.Component
protected

Called when a raw config object is added to this container either during initialization of the items config, or when new items are added), or {@link #insert inserted.

This method converts the passed object into an instanced child component.

This may be overridden in subclasses when special processing needs to be applied to child creation.

Parameters

item :  Object

The config object being added.

Returns
Ext.Component

The component to be added.

Let's look at each part of the member row:

Member Flags

The API documentation uses a number of flags to further commnicate the class member's function and intent. The label may be represented by a text label, an abbreviation, or an icon.

Class Icons

- Indicates a framework class

- A singleton framework class. *See the singleton flag for more information

- A component-type framework class (any class within the Ext JS framework that extends Ext.Component)

- Indicates that the class, member, or guide is new in the currently viewed version

Member Icons

- Indicates a class member of type config

- Indicates a class member of type property

- Indicates a class member of type method

- Indicates a class member of type event

- Indicates a class member of type theme variable

- Indicates a class member of type theme mixin

- Indicates that the class, member, or guide is new in the currently viewed version

Class Member Quick-Nav Menu

Just below the class name on an API doc page is a row of buttons corresponding to the types of members owned by the current class. Each button shows a count of members by type (this count is updated as filters are applied). Clicking the button will navigate you to that member section. Hovering over the member-type button will reveal a popup menu of all members of that type for quick navigation.

Getter and Setter Methods

Getting and setter methods that correlate to a class config option will show up in the methods section as well as in the configs section of both the API doc and the member-type menus just beneath the config they work with. The getter and setter method documentation will be found in the config row for easy reference.

History Bar

Your page history is kept in localstorage and displayed (using the available real estate) just below the top title bar. By default, the only search results shown are the pages matching the product / version you're currently viewing. You can expand what is displayed by clicking on the button on the right-hand side of the history bar and choosing the "All" radio option. This will show all recent pages in the history bar for all products / versions.

Within the history config menu you will also see a listing of your recent page visits. The results are filtered by the "Current Product / Version" and "All" radio options. Clicking on the button will clear the history bar as well as the history kept in local storage.

If "All" is selected in the history config menu the checkbox option for "Show product details in the history bar" will be enabled. When checked, the product/version for each historic page will show alongside the page name in the history bar. Hovering the cursor over the page names in the history bar will also show the product/version as a tooltip.

Search and Filters

Both API docs and guides can be searched for using the search field at the top of the page.

On API doc pages there is also a filter input field that filters the member rows using the filter string. In addition to filtering by string you can filter the class members by access level, inheritance, and read only. This is done using the checkboxes at the top of the page.

The checkbox at the bottom of the API class navigation tree filters the class list to include or exclude private classes.

Clicking on an empty search field will show your last 10 searches for quick navigation.

API Doc Class Metadata

Each API doc page (with the exception of Javascript primitives pages) has a menu view of metadata relating to that class. This metadata view will have one or more of the following:

Expanding and Collapsing Examples and Class Members

Runnable examples (Fiddles) are expanded on a page by default. You can collapse and expand example code blocks individually using the arrow on the top-left of the code block. You can also toggle the collapse state of all examples using the toggle button on the top-right of the page. The toggle-all state will be remembered between page loads.

Class members are collapsed on a page by default. You can expand and collapse members using the arrow icon on the left of the member row or globally using the expand / collapse all toggle button top-right.

Desktop -vs- Mobile View

Viewing the docs on narrower screens or browsers will result in a view optimized for a smaller form factor. The primary differences between the desktop and "mobile" view are:

Viewing the Class Source

The class source can be viewed by clicking on the class name at the top of an API doc page. The source for class members can be viewed by clicking on the "view source" link on the right-hand side of the member row.

Ext JS 6.5.0 - Classic Toolkit


top

Summary

A flyweight Ext.dom.Element that can be dynamically attached to a DOM node. In general this class should not be instantiated directly. Use Ext#fly to create and retrieve Fly instances.

No members found using the current filters

configs

properties

Instance Properties

$className
private pri

Defaults to:

'Ext.Base'

$configPrefixed : Boolean
private pri

The value true causes config values to be stored on instances using a property name prefixed with an underscore ("_") character. A value of false stores config values as properties using their exact name (no prefix).

Defaults to:

true

Available since: 5.0.0

$configStrict : Boolean
private pri

The value true instructs the initConfig method to only honor values for properties declared in the config block of a class. When false, properties that are not declared in a config block will be placed on the instance.

Defaults to:

true

Available since: 5.0.0

$eventOptions
private pri

Matches options property names within a listeners specification object - property names which are never used as event names.

Defaults to:

{
    scope: 1,
    delay: 1,
    buffer: 1,
    onFrame: 1,
    single: 1,
    args: 1,
    destroyable: 1,
    priority: 1,
    order: 1
}

$vetoClearingPrototypeOnDestroy
private pri

We don't want the base destructor to clear the prototype because our destroyObservable handler must be called the very last. It will take care of the prototype after completing Observable destruction sequence.

Defaults to:

true

clearPropertiesOnDestroy : Boolean / "async"
protected pro

Setting this property to false will prevent nulling object references on a Class instance after destruction. Setting this to "async" will delay the clearing for approx 50ms.

Defaults to:

true

Available since: 6.2.0

clearPrototypeOnDestroy : Boolean
private pri

Setting this property to true will result in setting the object's prototype to null after the destruction sequence is fully completed. After that, most attempts at calling methods on the object instance will result in "method not defined" exception. This can be very helpful with tracking down otherwise hard to find bugs like runaway Ajax requests, timed functions not cleared on destruction, etc.

Note that this option can only work in browsers that support Object.setPrototypeOf method, and is only available in debugging mode.

Defaults to:

false

Available since: 6.2.0

component : Ext.Component

A reference to the Component that owns this element. This is null if there is no direct owner.

destroyed : Boolean
protected pro

This property is set to true after the destroy method is called.

Defaults to:

false

dom : HTMLElement

The DOM element

Defaults to:

dom

eventsSuspended
private pri

Initial suspended call count. Incremented when suspendEvents is called, decremented when resumeEvents is called.

Defaults to:

0

hasListeners : Object
readonly ro

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 Ext.app.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);
 }

id : String

The DOM element ID

Defaults to:

id

isConfiguring : Boolean
readonly ro protected pro

This property is set to true during the call to initConfig.

Defaults to:

false

Available since: 5.0.0

isFirstInstance : Boolean
readonly ro protected pro

This property is set to true if this instance is the first of its class.

Defaults to:

false

Available since: 5.0.0

isFly : Boolean

This is true to identify Element flyweights

Defaults to:

true

isInstance : Boolean
readonly ro protected pro

This value is true and is used to identify plain objects from instances of a defined class.

Defaults to:

true

isObservable : Boolean

true in this class to identify an object as an instantiated Observable, or subclass thereof.

Defaults to:

true

self : Ext.Class
protected pro

Get the reference to the current class from which this object was instantiated. Unlike Ext.Base#statics, this.self is scope-dependent and it's meant to be used for dynamic inheritance. See Ext.Base#statics for a detailed comparison

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

    constructor: function() {
        alert(this.self.speciesName); // dependent on 'this'
    },

    clone: function() {
        return new this.self();
    }
});


Ext.define('My.SnowLeopard', {
    extend: 'My.Cat',
    statics: {
        speciesName: 'Snow Leopard'         // My.SnowLeopard.speciesName = 'Snow Leopard'
    }
});

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

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

Defaults to:

Base

Static Properties

$onExtended
static sta private pri

Defaults to:

[]

CLIP : Number
static sta

Visibility mode constant for use with Ext.dom.Element#setVisibilityMode. Use CSS clip property to reduce element's dimensions to 0px by 0px, effectively making it hidden while not being truly invisible. This is useful when an element needs to be published to the Assistive Technologies such as screen readers.

Defaults to:

4

DISPLAY : Number
static sta

Visibility mode constant for use with Ext.dom.Element#setVisibilityMode. Use the CSS 'display' property to hide the element.

Defaults to:

2

editableSelector
static sta private pri

Defaults to:

'input,textarea,[contenteditable="true"]'

maxRippleDiameter
static sta

Determines the maximum size for all ripples

Defaults to:

75

minKeyboardHeight
static sta private pri

This property indicates a minimum threshold of vertical resize movement for virtual keyboard detection.

On some mobile browsers the framework needs to keep track of whether window resize events were triggered by the opening or closing of a virtual keyboard so that it can prevent unnecessary re-layout of the viewport. It does this by detecting resize events in the horizontal direction that occur immediately after an editable element is focused or blurred.

Defaults to:

100

OFFSETS : Number
static sta

Visibility mode constant for use with Ext.dom.Element#setVisibilityMode. Use CSS absolute positioning and top/left offsets to hide the element.

Defaults to:

3

OPACITY : Number
static sta

Visibility mode constant for use with Ext.dom.Element#setVisibilityMode. Use CSS opacity property to reduce element's opacity to 0

Defaults to:

5

useDelegatedEvents : Boolean
static sta private pri

True to globally disable the delegated event system. The results of setting this to false are unpredictable since the Gesture publisher relies on delegated events in order to work correctly. Disabling delegated events may cause Gestures to function incorrectly or to stop working completely. Use at your own risk!

Defaults to:

true

validNodeTypes : Object
static sta private pri

The list of valid nodeTypes that are allowed to be wrapped

Defaults to:

{
    1: 1,
    // ELEMENT_NODE
    9: 1
}

VISIBILITY : Number
static sta

Visibility mode constant for use with Ext.dom.Element#setVisibilityMode. Use the CSS 'visibility' property to hide the element.

Note that in this mode, isVisible may return true for an element even though it actually has a parent element that is hidden. For this reason, and in most cases, using the OFFSETS mode is a better choice.

Defaults to:

1

methods

Instance Methods

_addDeclaredListeners ( listeners ) : Boolean
private pri

Adds declarative listeners as nested arrays of listener objects.

Parameters

listeners :  Array

Returns

:Boolean

true if any listeners were added

_getPublisher ( eventName, [noTranslate] ) : Ext.event.publisher.Publisher
private pri

Returns the publisher for a given event

Parameters

eventName :  String

noTranslate :  Boolean (optional)

true if the event is a non translated event

Returns

:Ext.event.publisher.Publisher

addAnimation ( config ) : Ext.fx.Anim

Starts a custom animation on this Element.

The following properties may be specified in from, to, and keyframe objects:

  • x - The page X position in pixels.
  • y - The page Y position in pixels
  • left - The element's CSS left value. Units must be supplied.
  • top - The element's CSS top value. Units must be supplied.
  • width - The element's CSS width value. Units must be supplied.
  • height - The element's CSS height value. Units must be supplied.
  • scrollLeft - The element's scrollLeft value.
  • scrollTop - The element's scrollTop value.
  • opacity - The element's opacity value (between 0 and 1).

Be aware that animating an Element which is being used by an Ext Component without in some way informing the Component about the changed element state will result in incorrect Component behaviour. This is because the Component will be using the old state of the element. To avoid this problem, it is now possible to directly animate certain properties of Components.

Parameters

config :  Object

Configuration for Ext.fx.Anim. Note that the to config is required.

Returns

:Ext.fx.Anim

addListener ( eventName, [fn], [scope], [options], [order] ) : Object
chainable ch

The on method is shorthand for addListener.

Appends an event handler to this object. For example:

myGridPanel.on("itemclick", this.onItemClick, 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,
    select: this.onSelect,
    viewready: this.onViewReady,
    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},
    viewready: {fn: panel.onViewReady, scope: panel}
});

Names of methods in a specified scope may also be used:

myGridPanel.on({
    cellclick: {fn: 'onCellClick', scope: this, single: true},
    viewready: {fn: 'onViewReady', scope: panel}
});

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/String (optional)

The method the event invokes or the name of the method within the specified scope. Will be called with arguments given to Ext.util.Observable#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: 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.

onFrame :  Number

Causes the handler to be scheduled to run at the next animation frame event. If the event fires again before that time, the handler is not rescheduled - the handler will only be called once when the next animation frame is fired, with the last set of arguments passed.

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 Ext.Component. The name of a Component property which references an Ext.dom.Element to add a listener to.

This option is useful during Component construction to add DOM event listeners to elements of Ext.Component which will exist only after the Component is rendered.

For example, to add a click listener to a Panel's body:

  var panel = new Ext.panel.Panel({
      title: 'The title',
      listeners: {
          click: this.handlePanelClick,
          element: 'body'
      }
  });

In order to remove listeners attached using the element, you'll need to reference the element itself as seen below.

 panel.body.un(...)

delegate :  String (optional)

A simple selector to filter the event target or look for a descendant of the target.

The "delegate" option is only available on Ext.dom.Element instances (or when attaching a listener to a Ext.dom.Element via a Component using the element option).

See the delegate example below.

capture :  Boolean (optional)

When set to true, the listener is fired in the capture phase of the event propagation sequence, instead of the default bubble phase.

The capture option is only available on Ext.dom.Element instances (or when attaching a listener to a Ext.dom.Element via a Component using the element option).

stopPropagation :  Boolean (optional)

This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element. true to call stopPropagation on the event object before firing the handler.

preventDefault :  Boolean (optional)

This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element. true to call preventDefault on the event object before firing the handler.

stopEvent :  Boolean (optional)

This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element. true to call stopEvent on the event object before firing the handler.

args :  Array (optional)

Optional set of arguments to pass to the handler function before the actual fired event arguments. For example, if args is set to ['foo', 42], the event handler function will be called with an arguments list like this:

 handler('foo', 42, <actual event arguments>...);

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. This syntax can be a helpful shortcut to using un; particularly when removing multiple listeners. NOTE - not compatible when using the element option. See un for the proper syntax for removing listeners added using the element config.

Defaults to:

false

priority :  Number (optional)

An optional numeric priority that determines the order in which event handlers are run. Event handlers with no priority will be run as if they had a priority of 0. Handlers with a higher priority will be prioritized to run sooner than those with a lower priority. Negative numbers can be used to set a priority lower than the default. Internally, the framework uses a range of 1000 or greater, and -1000 or lesser for handlers that are intended to run before or after all others, so it is recommended to stay within the range of -999 to 999 when setting the priority of event handlers in application-level code. A priority must be an integer to be valid. Fractional values are reserved for internal framework use.

order :  String (optional)

A legacy option that is provided for backward compatibility. It is recommended to use the priority option instead. Available options are:

  • 'before': equal to a priority of 100
  • 'current': equal to a priority of 0 or default priority
  • 'after': equal to a priority of -100

Defaults to:

'current'

order :  String (optional)

A shortcut for the order event option. Provided for backward compatibility. Please use the priority event option instead.

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
});

Attaching multiple handlers in 1 call

The method also allows for a single argument to be passed which is a config object containing properties which specify multiple handlers and handler configs.

grid.on({
    itemclick: 'onItemClick',
    itemcontextmenu: grid.onItemContextmenu,
    destroy: {
        fn: function () {
            // function called within the 'altCmp' scope instead of grid
        },
        scope: altCmp // unique scope for the destroy handler
    },
    scope: grid       // default scope - provided for example clarity
});

Delegate

This is a configuration option that you can pass along when registering a handler for an event to assist with event delegation. By setting this configuration option to a simple selector, the target element will be filtered to look for a descendant of the target. For example:

var panel = Ext.create({
    xtype: 'panel',
    renderTo: document.body,
    title: 'Delegate Handler Example',
    frame: true,
    height: 220,
    width: 220,
    html: '<h1 class="myTitle">BODY TITLE</h1>Body content'
});

// The click handler will only be called when the click occurs on the
// delegate: h1.myTitle ("h1" tag with class "myTitle")
panel.on({
    click: function (e) {
        console.log(e.getTarget().innerHTML);
    },
    element: 'body',
    delegate: 'h1.myTitle'
 });

Defaults to: 'current'

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();

addManagedListener ( item, ename, [fn], [scope], [options] ) : Object

The addManagedListener method is used when some object (call it "A") is listening to an event on another observable object ("B") and you want to remove that listener from "B" when "A" is destroyed. This is not an issue when "B" is destroyed because all of its listeners will be removed at that time.

Example:

Ext.define('Foo', {
    extend: 'Ext.Component',

    initComponent: function () {
        this.addManagedListener(MyApp.SomeGlobalSharedMenu, 'show', this.doSomething);
        this.callParent();
    }
});

As you can see, when an instance of Foo is destroyed, it ensures that the 'show' listener on the menu (MyApp.SomeGlobalSharedMenu) is also removed.

As of version 5.1 it is no longer necessary to use this method in most cases because listeners are automatically managed if the scope object provided to addListener is an Observable instance. However, if the observable instance and scope are not the same object you still need to use mon or addManagedListener if you want the listener to be managed.

Parameters

item :  Ext.util.Observable/Ext.dom.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/String (optional)

If the ename parameter was an event name, this is the handler function or the name of a method on the specified scope.

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();

adjustDirect2DDimension ( dimension ) : Number
private pri

Returns the fractional portion of this element's measurement in the given dimension. (IE9+ only)

Parameters

dimension :  Object

Returns

:Number

adjustForConstraints ( xy, parent )
private pri

Parameters

xy :  Object

parent :  Object

alignTo ( element, [position], [offsets] ) : Ext.util.Positionable

Aligns the element with another element relative to the specified anchor points. If the other element is the document it aligns it to the viewport. The position parameter is optional, and can be specified in any one of the following formats:

  • Blank: Defaults to aligning the element's top-left corner to the target's bottom-left corner ("tl-bl").
  • Two anchors: If two values from the table below are passed separated by a dash, the first value is used as the element's anchor point, and the second value is used as the target's anchor point.
  • Two edge/offset descriptors: An edge/offset descriptor is an edge initial (t/r/b/l) followed by a percentage along that side. This describes a point to align with a similar point in the target. So 't0-b0' would be the same as 'tl-bl', 'l0-r50' would place the top left corner of this item halfway down the right edge of the target item. This allows more flexibility and also describes which two edges are considered adjacent when positioning a tip pointer.

In addition to the anchor points, the position parameter also supports the "?" character. If "?" is passed at the end of the position string, the element will attempt to align as specified, but the position will be adjusted to constrain to the viewport if necessary. Note that the element being aligned might be swapped to align to a different position than that specified in order to enforce the viewport constraints. Following are all of the supported anchor positions:

 Value  Description
 -----  -----------------------------
 tl     The top left corner
 t      The center of the top edge
 tr     The top right corner
 l      The center of the left edge
 c      The center
 r      The center of the right edge
 bl     The bottom left corner
 b      The center of the bottom edge
 br     The bottom right corner

Example Usage:

// align el to other-el using the default positioning
// ("tl-bl", non-constrained)
el.alignTo("other-el");

// align the top left corner of el with the top right corner of other-el
// (constrained to viewport)
el.alignTo("other-el", "tl-tr?");

// align the bottom right corner of el with the center left edge of other-el
el.alignTo("other-el", "br-l?");

// align the center of el with the bottom left corner of other-el and
// adjust the x position by -6 pixels (and the y position by 0)
el.alignTo("other-el", "c-bl", [-6, 0]);

// align the 25% point on the bottom edge of this el
// with the 75% point on the top edge of other-el.
el.alignTo("other-el", 'b25-c75');

boxWrap ( [class] ) : Ext.dom.Element

Wraps the specified element with a special 9 element markup/CSS block that renders by default as a gray container with a gradient background, rounded corners and a 4-way shadow.

This special markup is used throughout Ext when box wrapping elements (Ext.button.Button, Ext.panel.Panel when frame=true, Ext.window.Window). The markup is of this form:

<div class="{0}-tl"><div class="{0}-tr"><div class="{0}-tc"></div></div></div>
<div class="{0}-ml"><div class="{0}-mr"><div class="{0}-mc"></div></div></div>
<div class="{0}-bl"><div class="{0}-br"><div class="{0}-bc"></div></div></div>

Example usage:

// Basic box wrap
Ext.get("foo").boxWrap();

// You can also add a custom class and use CSS inheritance rules to customize the box look.
// 'x-box-blue' is a built-in alternative -- look at the related CSS definitions as an example
// for how to create a custom box wrap style.
Ext.get("foo").boxWrap().addCls("x-box-blue");

Parameters

class :  String (optional)

A base CSS class to apply to the containing wrapper element. Note that there are a number of CSS rules that are dependent on this name to make the overall effect work, so if you supply an alternate base class, make sure you also supply all of the necessary rules.

Defaults to: 'x-box'

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element

The outermost wrapping element of the created box structure.

cacheScrollValues Function

When an element is moved around in the DOM, or is hidden using display:none, it loses layout, and therefore all scroll positions of all descendant elements are lost.

This function caches them, and returns a function, which when run will restore the cached positions. In the following example, the Panel is moved from one Container to another which will cause it to lose all scroll positions:

var restoreScroll = myPanel.el.cacheScrollValues();
myOtherContainer.add(myPanel);
restoreScroll();

Returns

:Function

A function which will restore all descendant elements of this Element to their scroll positions recorded when this function was executed. Be aware that the returned function is a closure which has captured the scope of cacheScrollValues, so take care to dereference it as soon as not needed - if is it is a var it will drop out of scope, and the reference will be freed.

calculateAnchorXY ( [anchor], [extraX], [extraY], [size] ) : Number[]
private pri

Calculates x,y coordinates specified by the anchor position on the element, adding extraX and extraY values.

Parameters

anchor :  String (optional)

The specified anchor position. See alignTo for details on supported anchor positions.

Defaults to: 'tl'

extraX :  Number (optional)

value to be added to the x coordinate

extraY :  Number (optional)

value to be added to the y coordinate

size :  Object (optional)

An object containing the size to use for calculating anchor position {width: (target width), height: (target height)} (defaults to the element's current size)

Returns

:Number[]

[x, y] An array containing the element's x and y coordinates

calculateConstrainedPosition ( [constrainTo], [proposedPosition], [local], [proposedSize] ) : Number[]
private pri

Calculates the new [x,y] position to move this Positionable into a constrain region.

By default, this Positionable is constrained to be within the container it was added to, or the element it was rendered to.

Priority is given to constraining the top and left within the constraint.

An alternative constraint may be passed.

Parameters

constrainTo :  String/HTMLElement/Ext.dom.Element/Ext.util.Region (optional)

The Element or Ext.util.Region into which this Component is to be constrained. Defaults to the element into which this Positionable was rendered, or this Component's {@link Ext.Component#constrainTo.

proposedPosition :  Number[] (optional)

A proposed [X, Y] position to test for validity and to coerce into constraints instead of using this Positionable's current position.

local :  Boolean (optional)

The proposedPosition is local (relative to floatParent if a floating Component)

proposedSize :  Number[] (optional)

A proposed [width, height] size to use when calculating constraints instead of using this Positionable's current size.

Returns

:Number[]

If the element needs to be translated, the new [X, Y] position within constraints if possible, giving priority to keeping the top and left edge in the constrain region. Otherwise, false.

callOverridden ( args ) : Object
deprecated dep protected pro

Call the original method that was previously overridden with Ext.Base#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"

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

Deprecated since version 4.1.0
Use method-callParent instead.

callParent ( args ) : Object
protected pro

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 and private methods.

 Ext.define('My.Derived2', {
     extend: 'My.Base',

     // privates: {
     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',

     // privates: {
     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 method-callSuper. This is often done to patch a method to fix a bug.

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

callSuper ( args ) : Object
protected pro

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', {
     extend: 'Ext.some.Class',

     method: function () {
         console.log('Bad');

         // ... logic but with a bug ...

         this.callParent();
     }
 });

To patch the bug in Ext.some.DerivedClass.method, the typical solution is to create an override:

 Ext.define('App.patches.DerivedClass', {
     override: 'Ext.some.DerivedClass',

     method: function () {
         console.log('Fixed');

         // ... logic but with bug fixed ...

         this.callSuper();
     }
 });

The patch method cannot use method-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".

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

center ( centerIn ) : Ext.dom.Element

clean ( [forceReclean] ) :
chainable ch

Removes Empty, or whitespace filled text nodes. Combines adjacent text nodes.

Parameters

forceReclean :  Boolean (optional)

By default the element keeps track if it has been cleaned already so you can call this over and over. However, if you update the element and need to force a re-clean, you can pass true.

Defaults to: false

Returns

:

clearClip
private pri

Clears any clipping applied to this component by method-clipTo.

clearListeners

Removes all listeners for this object including the managed listeners

clearManagedListeners

Removes all managed listeners for this object.

clearOpacity Ext.dom.Element

Clears any opacity settings from this element. Required in some cases for IE.

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element

this

clearPositioning ( [value] ) : Ext.dom.Element

Clears positioning back to the default when the document was loaded.

Parameters

value :  String (optional)

The value to use for the left, right, top, bottom. You could use 'auto'.

Defaults to: ''

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element

this

clip Ext.dom.Element
chainable ch

Store the current overflow setting and clip overflow on the element - use unclip to remove

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element

this

clipTo ( clippingEl, sides )
private pri

Clips this Component/Element to fit within the passed element's or component's view area

Parameters

clippingEl :  Ext.Component/Ext.dom.Element/Ext.util.Region

The Component or element or Region which should clip this element even if this element is outside the bounds of that region.

sides :  Number

The sides to clip 1=top, 2=right, 4=bottom, 8=left.

This is to support components being clipped to their logical owner, such as a grid row editor when the row being edited scrolls out of sight. The editor should be clipped at the edge of the scrolling element.

clone ( [deep], [returnDom] ) : HTMLElement/Ext.dom.Element

Clone this element.

Parameters

deep :  Boolean (optional)

true if the children of the node should also be cloned.

Defaults to: false

returnDom :  Boolean (optional)

true to return the DOM node instead of Ext.dom.Element.

Defaults to: false

Returns

:HTMLElement/Ext.dom.Element

The newly cloned Ext.dom.Element (or DOM node if returnDom is true).

collect
private pri

Removes the element from the cache and removes listeners. Used for cleaning up orphaned elements after they have been removed from the dom. Similar to destroy except it assumes the element has already been removed from the dom.

constrainBox ( box )
private pri

Parameters

box :  Object

constructor ( dom )
private pri

Creates new Element directly by passing an id or the HTMLElement. This constructor should not be called directly. Always use Ext.get() or Ext#fly() instead.

In older versions of Ext JS and Sencha Touch this constructor checked to see if there was already an instance of this element in the cache and if so, returned the same instance. As of version 5 this behavior has been removed in order to avoid a redundant cache lookup since the most common path is for the Element constructor to be called from Ext.get(), which has already checked for a cache entry.

Correct way of creating a new Ext.dom.Element (or retrieving it from the cache):

var el = Ext.get('foo'); // by id

var el = Ext.get(document.getElementById('foo')); // by DOM reference

Incorrect way of creating a new Ext.dom.Element

var el = new Ext.dom.Element('foo');

For quick and easy access to Ext.dom.Element methods use a flyweight:

Ext.fly('foo').addCls('foo-hovered');

This simply attaches the DOM node with id='foo' to the global flyweight Element instance to avoid allocating an extra Ext.dom.Element instance. If, however, the Element instance has already been cached by a previous call to Ext.get(), then Ext.fly() will return the cached Element instance. For more info see Ext#fly.

Parameters

dom :  String/HTMLElement

contains ( element ) : Boolean

Returns true if this element is an ancestor of the passed element, or is the element.

Parameters

element :  String/HTMLElement/Ext.dom.Element

The dom element, Ext.dom.Element, or id (string) of the dom element to check.

Returns

:Boolean

True if this element is an ancestor of el or the el itself, else false

convertPositionSpec ( posSpec )
private pri

This function converts a legacy alignment string such as 't-b' into a pair of edge, offset objects which describe the alignment points of the two regions.

So tl-br becomes {myEdge:'t', offset:0}, {otherEdge:'b', offset:100}

This not only allows more flexibility in the alignment possibilities, but it also resolves any ambiguity as to chich two edges are desired to be adjacent if an anchor pointer is required.

Parameters

posSpec :  Object

createChild ( config, [insertBefore], [returnDom] ) : Ext.dom.Element/HTMLElement

Creates the passed DomHelper config and appends it to this element or optionally inserts it before the passed child element.

Parameters

config :  Object

DomHelper element config object. If no tag is specified (e.g., {tag:'input'}) then a div will be automatically generated with the specified attributes.

insertBefore :  HTMLElement (optional)

a child element of this element

returnDom :  Boolean (optional)

true to return the dom node instead of creating an Element

Defaults to: false

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element/HTMLElement

The new child element (or HTMLElement if returnDom is true)

createProxy ( config, [renderTo], [matchBox] ) : Ext.dom.Element

Creates a proxy element of this element

Parameters

config :  String/Object

The class name of the proxy element or a DomHelper config object

renderTo :  String/HTMLElement (optional)

The element or element id to render the proxy to. Defaults to: document.body.

destroy

Destroys this element by removing it from the cache, removing its DOM reference, and removing all of its event listeners.

destroyMembers ( args )

Destroys member properties by name.

If a property name is the name of a config, the getter is not invoked, so if the config has not been initialized, nothing will be done.

The property will be destroyed, and the corrected name (if the property is a config and config names are prefixed) will set to null in this object's dictionary.

Parameters

args :  String...

One or more names of the properties to destroy and remove from the object.

disableShadow
private pri

Disables the shadow element created by enableShadow.

disableShim
private pri

Use getById if you need to get a reference to a child element via id.

Parameters

selector :  String

true to return the DOM node instead of Ext.dom.Element

Defaults to: false

Returns

:HTMLElement/Ext.dom.Element

The child Ext.dom.Element (or DOM node if returnDom is true)

empty

Empties this element. Removes all child nodes.

enableBubble ( eventNames )

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');
        }
    }
});

Parameters

eventNames :  String/String[]

The event name to bubble, or an Array of event names.

fireAction ( eventName, args, fn, [scope], [options], [order] )
deprecated dep

Fires the specified event with the passed parameters and executes a function (action). By default, the action function will be executed after any "before" event handlers (as specified using the order option of addListener), but before any other handlers are fired. This gives the "before" handlers an opportunity to cancel the event by returning false, and prevent the action function from being called.

The action can also be configured to run after normal handlers, but before any "after" handlers (as specified using the order event option) by passing 'after' as the order parameter. This configuration gives any event handlers except for "after" handlers the opportunity to cancel the event and prevent the action function from being called.

Parameters

eventName :  String

The name of the event to fire.

args :  Array

Arguments to pass to handlers and to the action function.

fn :  Function

The action function.

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)

Event options for the action function. Accepts any of the options of addListener

order :  String (optional)

The order to call the action function relative too the event handlers ('before' or 'after'). Note that this option is simply used to sort the action function relative to the event handlers by "priority". An order of 'before' is equivalent to a priority of 99.5, while an order of 'after' is equivalent to a priority of -99.5. See the priority option of addListener for more details.

Defaults to: 'before'

Deprecated since version 5.5
Use fireEventedAction instead.

fireEvent ( eventName, args ) : Boolean

Fires the specified event with the passed parameters (minus the event name, plus the options object passed to addListener).

An event may be set to bubble up an Observable parent hierarchy (See Ext.Component#getBubbleTarget) by calling enableBubble.

Parameters

eventName :  String

The name of the event to fire.

args :  Object...

Variable number of parameters are passed to handlers.

Returns

:Boolean

returns false if any of the handlers return false otherwise it returns true.

Parameters

eventName :  String

The name of the event to fire.

args :  Object[]

An array of parameters which are passed to handlers.

Returns

:Boolean

returns false if any of the handlers return false otherwise it returns true.

fireEventedAction ( eventName, args, fn, [scope], [fnArgs] ) : Boolean

Fires the specified event with the passed parameters and executes a function (action). Evented Actions will automatically dispatch a 'before' event passing. This event will be given a special controller that allows for pausing/resuming of the event flow.

By pausing the controller the updater and events will not run until resumed. Pausing, however, will not stop the processing of any other before events.

Parameters

eventName :  String

The name of the event to fire.

args :  Array

Arguments to pass to handlers and to the action function.

fn :  Function/String

The action function.

scope :  Object (optional)

measure ( [dimension] ) : Number/Object
private pri

Measures and returns the size of this element. When dimension is null (or not specified), this will be an object with width and height properties.

If dimension is 'w' the value returned will be this element's width. If dimension is 'h' the returned value will be this element's height.

Unlike getWidth and getHeight this method only returns "precise" (sub-pixel) sizes based on the getBoundingClientRect API.

Available since: 6.5.0

Parameters

dimension :  'w'/'h' (optional)

Specifies which dimension is desired. If omitted then an object with width and height properties is returned.

Returns

:Number/Object

This element's width, height or both as a readonly object. This object may be the direct result of getBoundingClientRect and hence immutable on some browsers.

measureContent ( [dimension] ) : Number/Object
private pri

Measures and returns this element's content. When dimension is null (or not specified), this will be an object with width and height properties.

If dimension is 'w' the value returned will be this element's width. If dimension is 'h' the returned value will be this element's height.

Unlike getWidth and getHeight this method only returns "precise" (sub-pixel) sizes based on the getBoundingClientRect API.

Available since: 6.5.0

Parameters

dimension :  'w'/'h' (optional)

Specifies which dimension is desired. If omitted then an object with width and height properties is returned.

Returns

:Number/Object

This element's width, height or both as a readonly object. This object may be the direct result of getBoundingClientRect and hence immutable on some browsers.

mon ( item, ename, [fn], [scope], [options] ) : Object

Shorthand for addManagedListener. The addManagedListener method is used when some object (call it "A") is listening to an event on another observable object ("B") and you want to remove that listener from "B" when "A" is destroyed. This is not an issue when "B" is destroyed because all of its listeners will be removed at that time.

Example:

Ext.define('Foo', {
    extend: 'Ext.Component',

    initComponent: function () {
        this.addManagedListener(MyApp.SomeGlobalSharedMenu, 'show', this.doSomething);
        this.callParent();
    }
});

As you can see, when an instance of Foo is destroyed, it ensures that the 'show' listener on the menu (MyApp.SomeGlobalSharedMenu) is also removed.

As of version 5.1 it is no longer necessary to use this method in most cases because listeners are automatically managed if the scope object provided to addListener is an Observable instance. However, if the observable instance and scope are not the same object you still need to use mon or addManagedListener if you want the listener to be managed.

Parameters

item :  Ext.util.Observable/Ext.dom.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/String (optional)

If the ename parameter was an event name, this is the handler function or the name of a method on the specified scope.

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();

monitorMouseLeave ( delay, handler, [scope] ) : Object

Monitors this Element for the mouse leaving. Calls the function after the specified delay only if the mouse was not moved back into the Element within the delay. If the mouse was moved back in, the function is not called.

Parameters

delay :  Number

The delay in milliseconds to wait for possible mouse re-entry before calling the handler function.

handler :  Function

The function to call if the mouse remains outside of this Element for the specified time.

scope :  Object (optional)

The scope (this reference) in which the handler function executes. Defaults to this Element.

Returns

:Object

The listeners object which was added to this element so that monitoring can be stopped. Example usage:

// Hide the menu if the mouse moves out for 250ms or more
this.mouseLeaveMonitor = this.menuEl.monitorMouseLeave(250, this.hideMenu, this);

...
// Remove mouseleave monitor on menu destroy
this.mouseLeaveMonitor.destroy();

move ( direction, distance )

Move the element relative to its current position.

Parameters

Use Ext.dom.Element#setXY instead.

mun ( item, ename, [fn], [scope] )

Shorthand for removeManagedListener. Removes listeners that were added by the mon method.

Parameters

item :  Ext.util.Observable/Ext.dom.Element

The item from which to remove 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.

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element/HTMLElement

The next sibling Ext.dom.Element (or HTMLElement if asDom is true). Or null if no match is found.

on ( eventName, [fn], [scope], [options], [order] ) : Object

The on method is shorthand for addListener.

Appends an event handler to this object. For example:

myGridPanel.on("itemclick", this.onItemClick, 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,
    select: this.onSelect,
    viewready: this.onViewReady,
    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},
    viewready: {fn: panel.onViewReady, scope: panel}
});

Names of methods in a specified scope may also be used:

myGridPanel.on({
    cellclick: {fn: 'onCellClick', scope: this, single: true},
    viewready: {fn: 'onViewReady', scope: panel}
});

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/String (optional)

The method the event invokes or the name of the method within the specified scope. Will be called with arguments given to Ext.util.Observable#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: 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.

onFrame :  Number

Causes the handler to be scheduled to run at the next animation frame event. If the event fires again before that time, the handler is not rescheduled - the handler will only be called once when the next animation frame is fired, with the last set of arguments passed.

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 Ext.Component. The name of a Component property which references an Ext.dom.Element to add a listener to.

This option is useful during Component construction to add DOM event listeners to elements of Ext.Component which will exist only after the Component is rendered.

For example, to add a click listener to a Panel's body:

  var panel = new Ext.panel.Panel({
      title: 'The title',
      listeners: {
          click: this.handlePanelClick,
          element: 'body'
      }
  });

In order to remove listeners attached using the element, you'll need to reference the element itself as seen below.

 panel.body.un(...)

delegate :  String (optional)

A simple selector to filter the event target or look for a descendant of the target.

The "delegate" option is only available on Ext.dom.Element instances (or when attaching a listener to a Ext.dom.Element via a Component using the element option).

See the delegate example below.

capture :  Boolean (optional)

When set to true, the listener is fired in the capture phase of the event propagation sequence, instead of the default bubble phase.

The capture option is only available on Ext.dom.Element instances (or when attaching a listener to a Ext.dom.Element via a Component using the element option).

stopPropagation :  Boolean (optional)

This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element. true to call stopPropagation on the event object before firing the handler.

preventDefault :  Boolean (optional)

This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element. true to call preventDefault on the event object before firing the handler.

stopEvent :  Boolean (optional)

This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element. true to call stopEvent on the event object before firing the handler.

args :  Array (optional)

Optional set of arguments to pass to the handler function before the actual fired event arguments. For example, if args is set to ['foo', 42], the event handler function will be called with an arguments list like this:

 handler('foo', 42, <actual event arguments>...);

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. This syntax can be a helpful shortcut to using un; particularly when removing multiple listeners. NOTE - not compatible when using the element option. See un for the proper syntax for removing listeners added using the element config.

Defaults to:

false

priority :  Number (optional)

An optional numeric priority that determines the order in which event handlers are run. Event handlers with no priority will be run as if they had a priority of 0. Handlers with a higher priority will be prioritized to run sooner than those with a lower priority. Negative numbers can be used to set a priority lower than the default. Internally, the framework uses a range of 1000 or greater, and -1000 or lesser for handlers that are intended to run before or after all others, so it is recommended to stay within the range of -999 to 999 when setting the priority of event handlers in application-level code. A priority must be an integer to be valid. Fractional values are reserved for internal framework use.

order :  String (optional)

A legacy option that is provided for backward compatibility. It is recommended to use the priority option instead. Available options are:

  • 'before': equal to a priority of 100
  • 'current': equal to a priority of 0 or default priority
  • 'after': equal to a priority of -100

Defaults to:

'current'

order :  String (optional)

A shortcut for the order event option. Provided for backward compatibility. Please use the priority event option instead.

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
});

Attaching multiple handlers in 1 call

The method also allows for a single argument to be passed which is a config object containing properties which specify multiple handlers and handler configs.

grid.on({
    itemclick: 'onItemClick',
    itemcontextmenu: grid.onItemContextmenu,
    destroy: {
        fn: function () {
            // function called within the 'altCmp' scope instead of grid
        },
        scope: altCmp // unique scope for the destroy handler
    },
    scope: grid       // default scope - provided for example clarity
});

Delegate

This is a configuration option that you can pass along when registering a handler for an event to assist with event delegation. By setting this configuration option to a simple selector, the target element will be filtered to look for a descendant of the target. For example:

var panel = Ext.create({
    xtype: 'panel',
    renderTo: document.body,
    title: 'Delegate Handler Example',
    frame: true,
    height: 220,
    width: 220,
    html: '<h1 class="myTitle">BODY TITLE</h1>Body content'
});

// The click handler will only be called when the click occurs on the
// delegate: h1.myTitle ("h1" tag with class "myTitle")
panel.on({
    click: function (e) {
        console.log(e.getTarget().innerHTML);
    },
    element: 'body',
    delegate: 'h1.myTitle'
 });

Defaults to: 'current'

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();

query ( selector, [asDom] ) : HTMLElement[]/Ext.dom.Element[]

Selects child nodes based on the passed CSS selector. Delegates to document.querySelectorAll. More information can be found at http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-selectors/

All selectors, attribute filters and pseudos below can be combined infinitely in any order. For example div.foo:nth-child(odd)[@foo=bar].bar:first would be a perfectly valid selector.

Element Selectors:

  • * any element
  • E an element with the tag E
  • E F All descendant elements of E that have the tag F
  • E > F or E/F all direct children elements of E that have the tag F
  • E + F all elements with the tag F that are immediately preceded by an element with the tag E
  • E ~ F all elements with the tag F that are preceded by a sibling element with the tag E

Attribute Selectors:

The use of @ and quotes are optional. For example, div[@foo='bar'] is also a valid attribute selector.

  • E[foo] has an attribute "foo"
  • E[foo=bar] has an attribute "foo" that equals "bar"
  • E[foo^=bar] has an attribute "foo" that starts with "bar"

Parameters

selector :  String

The CSS selector.

Parameters

className :  String/String[]

The CSS class to add, or an array of classes.

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element

this

relayEvents ( origin, events, [prefix] ) : 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 (unless the event is handled by a controller's control/listen event listener in which case 'this' will be the controller rather than the grid).

Parameters

origin :  Object

The Observable whose events this object is to relay.

events :  String[]/Object

Array of event names to relay or an Object with key/value pairs translating to ActualEventName/NewEventName respectively. For example: this.relayEvents(this, {add:'push', remove:'pop'});

Would now redispatch the add event of this as a push event and the remove event as a pop event.

prefix :  String (optional)

A common prefix to prepend to the event names. For example:

this.relayEvents(this.getStore(), ['load', 'clear'], 'store');

Now the grid will forward 'load' and 'clear' events of store as 'storeload' and 'storeclear'.

Returns

:Object

A Destroyable object. An object which implements the destroy method which, when destroyed, removes all relayers. For example:

this.storeRelayers = this.relayEvents(this.getStore(), ['load', 'clear'], 'store');

Can be undone by calling

Ext.destroy(this.storeRelayers);

or this.store.relayers.destroy();

remove
deprecated dep

Destroys this element by removing it from the cache, removing its DOM reference, and removing all of its event listeners.

Deprecated since version 5.0.0
Please use destroy instead.

removeAllListeners
deprecated dep

Removes all listeners for this object including the managed listeners

Deprecated since version 5.0.0
Please use clearListeners instead.

removeAnchor Ext.util.Positionable
chainable ch

Remove any anchor to this element. See anchorTo.

this

removeCls ( names, [prefix], [suffix] )

Removes the given CSS class(es) from this Element.

Parameters

names :  String/String[]

The CSS classes to remove separated by space, or an array of classes

prefix :  String (optional)

Prefix to prepend to each class. The separator - will be appended to the prefix.

suffix :  String (optional)

Suffix to append to each class. The separator - will be prepended to the suffix. return {Ext.dom.Element} this

removeListener ( eventName, fn, [scope] ) :
chainable ch

Removes an event handler.

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 Ext.util.Observable#addListener or the listener will not be removed.

Convenience Syntax

You can use the addListener destroyable: true config option in place of calling un(). For example:

var listeners = cmp.on({
    scope: cmp,
    afterrender: cmp.onAfterrender,
    beforehide: cmp.onBeforeHide,
    destroyable: true
});

// Remove listeners
listeners.destroy();
// or
cmp.un(
    scope: cmp,
    afterrender: cmp.onAfterrender,
    beforehide: cmp.onBeforeHide
);

Exception - DOM event handlers using the element config option

You must go directly through the element to detach an event handler attached using the addListener element option.

panel.on({
    element: 'body',
    click: 'onBodyCLick'
});

panel.body.un({
    click: 'onBodyCLick'
});

Returns

touchAction :  Object

An object with touch-action names as the keys, and boolean values to enable or disable specific touch actions. Accepted keys are:

  • panX
  • panY
  • pinchZoom
  • doubleTapZoom

All touch actions are enabled (true) by default, so it is usually only necessary to specify which touch actions to disable. For example, the following disables only vertical scrolling and double-tap-zoom on an element

element.setTouchAction({
    panY: false,
    doubleTapZoom: false
});

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element

this

setVertical ( angle, cls )
private pri

Changes this Element's state to "vertical" (rotated 90 or 270 degrees). This involves inverting the getters and setters for height and width, and applying hooks for rotating getters and setters for border/margin/padding. (getWidth becomes getHeight and vice versa), setStyle and getStyle will also return the inverse when height or width are being operated on.

Parameters

angle :  Number

the angle of rotation - either 90 or 270

cls :  String

an optional css class that contains the required styles for switching the element to vertical orientation. Omit this if the element already contains vertical styling. If cls is provided, it will be removed from the element when setHorizontal is called.

Animates the transition of any combination of an element's dimensions, xy position and/or opacity. Any of these properties not specified in the config object will not be changed. This effect requires that at least one new dimension, position or opacity setting must be passed in on the config object in order for the function to have any effect. Usage:

// slide the element horizontally to x position 200 while changing the height and opacity
el.shift({ x: 200, height: 50, opacity: .8 });

// common config options shown with default values.
el.shift({
    width: [element's width],

anchor :  String (optional)

One of the valid Ext.fx.Anim anchor positions (defaults to top: 't')

options :  Object (optional)

Object literal with any of the Ext.fx.Anim config options

preserveScroll :  Boolean

Set to true if preservation of any descendant elements' scrollTop values is required. By default the DOM wrapping operation performed by slideIn and slideOut causes the browser to lose all scroll positions.

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element

The Element

slideOut ( [anchor], [options] ) : Ext.dom.Element

Slides the element out of view. An anchor point can be optionally passed to set the end point for the slide effect. When the effect is completed, the element will be hidden (visibility = 'hidden') but block elements will still take up space in the document. The element must be removed from the DOM using the 'remove' config option if desired. This function automatically handles wrapping the element with a fixed-size container if needed. See the Ext.fx.Anim class overview for valid anchor point options. Usage:

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'

un ( eventName, fn, [scope] ) :

Shorthand for removeListener. Removes an event handler.

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 Ext.util.Observable#addListener or the listener will not be removed.

Convenience Syntax

You can use the addListener destroyable: true config option in place of calling un(). For example:

var listeners = cmp.on({
    scope: cmp,
    afterrender: cmp.onAfterrender,
    beforehide: cmp.onBeforeHide,
    destroyable: true
});

// Remove listeners
listeners.destroy();
// or
cmp.un(
    scope: cmp,
    afterrender: cmp.onAfterrender,
    beforehide: cmp.onBeforeHide
);

Exception - DOM event handlers using the element config option

You must go directly through the element to detach an event handler attached using the addListener element option.

panel.on({
    element: 'body',
    click: 'onBodyCLick'
});

panel.body.un({
    click: 'onBodyCLick'
});

static sta protected pro

Parameters

args :  Object

create ( attributes, domNode )
static sta private pri

Create method to add support for a DomHelper config. Creates and appends elements/children using document.createElement/appendChild. This method is used by the modern toolkit for a significant performance gain in webkit browsers as opposed to using DomQuery which generates HTML markup and sets it as innerHTML.

However, the createElement/appendChild method of creating elements is significantly slower in all versions of IE at the time of this writing (6 - 11), so classic toolkit should not use this method, but should instead use DomHelper methods, or Element methods that use DomHelper under the hood (e.g. createChild). see https:*fiddle.sencha.com/#fiddle/tj

Parameters

attributes :  Object

domNode :  Object

createAlias ( alias, origin )
static sta

Create aliases for existing prototype methods. Example:

Ext.define('My.cool.Class', {
    method1: function() { ... },
    method2: function() { ... }
});

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()

Parameters

alias :  String/Object

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

origin :  String/Object

The original method name

extend ( parentClass )
static sta private pri

Parameters

parentClass :  Object

fly ( dom, named ) : Ext.dom.Element
static sta

Gets the globally shared flyweight Element, with the passed node as the active element. Do not store a reference to this element - the dom node can be overwritten by other code. Ext#fly is alias for Ext.dom.Element#fly.

Use this to make one-time references to DOM elements which are not going to be accessed again either by application code, or by Ext's classes. If accessing an element which will be processed regularly, then Ext.get will be more appropriate to take advantage of the caching provided by the Ext.dom.Element class.

If this method is called with and id or element that has already been cached by a previous call to Ext.get() it will return the cached Element instead of the flyweight instance.

Parameters

dom :  String/HTMLElement

The DOM node or id.

named :  Object

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element

The shared Element object (or null if no matching element was found).

fromPagePoint ( x, y, [asDom] ) : Ext.dom.Element/HTMLElement
static sta

Returns the top Element that is located at the passed coordinates taking into account the scroll position of the document.

Available since: 6.2.0

Parameters

x :  Number

The x coordinate

y :  Number

The y coordinate

asDom :  Boolean (optional)

true to return a DOM element.

Defaults to: false

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element/HTMLElement

The found element.

fromPoint ( x, y, [asDom] ) : Ext.dom.Element/HTMLElement
static sta

Returns the top Element that is located at the passed coordinates in the current viewport.

Parameters

x :  Number

The x coordinate

y :  Number

The y coordinate

asDom :  Boolean (optional)

true to return a DOM element.

Defaults to: false

Returns

:Ext.dom.Element/HTMLElement

The found element.

get ( el ) : Ext.dom.Element
static sta

Retrieves Ext.dom.Element objects. Ext#get is alias for Ext.dom.Element#get.

This method does not retrieve Ext.Components. This method retrieves Ext.dom.Element objects which encapsulate DOM elements. To retrieve a Component by its ID, use Ext.ComponentManager#get.

When passing an id, it should not include the # character that is used for a css selector.

// For an element with id 'foo'

override ( members ) : Ext.Base
chainable ch static sta

Override members of this class. Overridden methods can be invoked via Ext.Base#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"

Direct use of this method should be rare. 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).
