  • getDialog() → dialog

    Gets the parent dialog object containing this UI element.

    See source

    Returns

    element

    Root DOM element of UI object.

  • getInputElement() → element

    Gets the DOM element that the user inputs values.

    See source

    This function is used by setValue, getValue and focus. It should be overrided in child classes where the input element isn't the root element.

    var rawValue = textInput.getInputElement().$.value;

    Returns

    element

    The element where the user input values.

  • getValue() → Object

    Gets the current value of this dialog UI object.

    See source
    var myValue = uiElement.getValue();

    Returns

    Object

    The current value.

  • isChanged() → Boolean

    Tells whether the UI object's value has changed.

    See source
    if ( uiElement.isChanged() )
    confirm( 'Value changed! Continue?' );

    Returns

    Boolean

    true if changed, false if not changed.

  • isEnabled() → Boolean

    Checks whether a field is enabled. Fields can be disabled by using the disable method and enabled by using the enable method.

    Returns

    Boolean

  • isFocusable() → Boolean

    Determines whether an UI element is focus-able or not. Focus-able is defined as being both visible and enabled.

    See source

    Returns

    Boolean

    Whether the UI element can be focused.

  • isVisible() → Boolean

    Checks whether a field is visible.

    See source

    Returns

    Boolean

  • registerEvents( definition ) → uiElement

    chainable

    Registers the on* event handlers defined in the element definition.

    See source

    The default behavior of this function is:

    1. If the on* event is defined in the class's eventProcesors list, then the registration is delegated to the corresponding function in the eventProcessors list.
    2. If the on* event is not defined in the eventProcessors list, then register the event handler under the corresponding DOM event of the UI element's input DOM element (as defined by the return value of getInputElement).

    This function is only called at UI element instantiation, but can be overridded in child classes if they require more flexibility.

    Parameters

    definition : uiElement

    The UI element definition.

    Returns

    uiElement

    this

  • selectParentTab() → uiElement

    chainable

    Selects the parent tab of this element. Usually called by focus() or overridden focus() methods.

    See source
    focus : function() {
    this.selectParentTab();
    // do something else.
}

    Returns

    uiElement

    this

  • setValue( value, noChangeEvent ) → uiElement

    chainable
