MouseEventsObserver (table/tableselection)

@ckeditor/ckeditor5-table/src/tableselection/mouseeventsobserver

class
See source

The mouse selection event observer.

It registers listeners for the following DOM events:

  • 'mousemove'
  • 'mouseup'
  • 'mouseleave'

Note that this observer is disabled by default. To enable this observer, it needs to be added to View using the addObserver method.

The observer is registered by the TableSelection plugin.

Properties

  • readonly inherited

    document : Document

    See source

    A reference to the Document object.

  • readonly inherited

    domEventType : String | Array.<String>

    See source

    Type of the DOM event the observer should listen to. Array of types can be defined if the observer should listen to multiple DOM events.

  • readonly inherited

    isEnabled : Boolean

    See source

    The state of the observer. If it is disabled, no events will be fired.

  • inherited

    useCapture : Boolean

    See source

    If set to true DOM events will be listened on the capturing phase. Default value is false.

  • readonly inherited

    view : View

    See source

    An instance of the view controller.

Methods

  • inherited

    constructor( view )

    See source

    Creates an instance of the observer.

    Parameters

    view : View

  • inherited

    checkShouldIgnoreEventFromTarget( domTarget ) → Boolean

    See source

    Checks whether a given DOM event should be ignored (should not be turned into a synthetic view document event).

    Currently, an event will be ignored only if its target or any of its ancestors has the data-cke-ignore-events attribute. This attribute can be used inside the structures generated by DowncastWriter#createUIElement() to ignore events fired within a UI that should be excluded from CKEditor 5's realms.

    Parameters

    domTarget : Node

    The DOM event target to check (usually an element, sometimes a text node and potentially sometimes a document, too).

    Returns

    Boolean

    Whether this event should be ignored by the observer.

  • inherited

    destroy()

    See source

    Disables and destroys the observer, among others removes event listeners created by the observer.

  • inherited

    disable()

    See source

    Disables the observer. This method is called before rendering to prevent firing events during rendering.

  • inherited

    enable()

    See source

    Enables the observer. This method is called when the observer is registered to the View and after rendering (all observers are disabled before rendering).

    A typical use case for disabling observers is that mutation observers need to be disabled for the rendering. However, a child class may not need to be disabled, so it can implement an empty method.

    fire( eventType, domEvent, [ additionalData ] )

    Parameters

    The event type (name).

    domEvent : Event

    The DOM event.

    [ additionalData ] : Object

    The additional data which should extend the event data object.
