The ADAPTIVESPLITAREA component renders two content areas with a divider in between. The way the content areas are arranged depends on the size that is available. The two content areas are positioned as children of the component.
Let's assume, the component is used with horizontal orientation:
In this case the first content area is rendered on the left, the second content area is rendered at the right. The width of the first area is determindes by its content, the width of the right area is streched to the available width.
If the screen space is not sufficient to render both areas in parallel, then the left area will be rendered only on user request - otherwise it is hidden. In addition, if the left area is rendered then it will be rendered on top of the right area.
You tpyically use the component in scenarios in which you have some navigation content on the left which should be shown for big screens - but which should be visible on request only if running on small screens.
In this description "left" and "right" are used for explaining the arrangement of the contained content areas. If setting attribute ORIENTATION to "vertical" then there is a "top" and "bottom" area, of course.

Binding to server side method that processes the events coming from this component.
#{methodBinding} | Method binding |
Special binding to component adapter object instance on server side. The component adapter must be an instance of IComponentAdapterBinding. For some components (e.g. FIXGRID) there is an extended interface (e.g. IFIXGRIDComponentAdapterBinding).
#{tobedefined} | Binding to IComponentAdapter instance |
Name of macro that is used for generating certain attributes of this component. Please pay attention: the value of this attribute is read one time for each control and cannot be changed afterwards.
Background color of the component. Any RGB value can be chosen using format #rrggbb.
#FFFFFF | White |
#000000 | Black |
#FF0000 | Red |
#00FF00 | Green |
#0000FF | Blue |

Background paint commands. There is a sequence of paint commands which can be executed one after the other by listing them as semicolon separated list. - By appending certain suffixes to a command you can define that the command is only executed in a certain situation. Available suffixes are: _empty (content of component is empty), _focus, _nofocus, _enabled, _disabled, _mouseover. Multiple suffixes can be used in parallel (e.g. write_empty_focus).

Comment that can be asigned to any component. The comment is not operationally used.
Any text | Any text |
Configuration information that is attached to this component. This information is not functionally used by CaptainCasa, but may be used for any application specific purpose.
If set to true then data changes within this area will cause a flush-rountrip to the server as soon as the user leaves the area.
true | Flush is done on data change + leaving the area. |
false | No flush. Data is transferred to server with next round trip. (Default) |
Height of the control. Either defined as absolute value or as percentage value. Pay attention when using percentage sizing: the size refers to what is given from the components above. When using percentage sizing then you may define a minimum size in addition, by appending it with a semicolon: "100%;100" means: use 100%, but always keep a minimum size of 100. If using absolute sizes you may append a "+" to define, that the size is extended if required by the component. - Please note: the sizing may be completely taken over by the parent component (e.g. if a component is used in a grid cell), in this case the size definintions on this component level are obsolete.
100 | 100 Pixels |
120 | 120 Pixels |
200 | 200 Pixels |
50% | 50 percents |
100% | Full available height |
Help id that is part of the online help management.
helpid | Id pointing to a server side online help file. |
ccnof1help | Explicitly switching off default F1 help. This is sometimes required in case you want to explicitly react on F1-key as hotkey. |
If set to true then the second split (i.e. the right or bottom split, dependent from orientation) is completely hidden. In this case the divider also is not shown.
false | Second split is visible (default) |
true | Second split is hidden |
Orientation of layout.
horizontal | horizontal (default, except if used with SIZEABLEPANE) |
vertical | vertical (default if used with SIZEABLEPANE) |
Definition of padding on top level of container. This is the pixel distance between the outer shape of the container and its content. The definition either is a straight integer value or is an explicit per-side definition.
1 | One pixel distance on all sides (left, top, right, bottom) |
5 | 5 pixels distance on all sides (left, top, right, bottom) |
left:1;right:1 | Only padding on the left and on the right - no padding on top and bottom. |
Reference to the id of a POPUPMENU definition that is available either in this page or in a page that includes this page.
If set to true, then an explicit roundtrip is triggered when the user presses the right mouse button in order to open a popup menu. As result you can define the popup menu dynamically (using DYNAMICCONTENT) and prepare the popup menu at this point of time when the user want to open it.
false | Menu is already defined in layout, no roundtrip (default) |
true | Menu is dynamically created, roundtrip is triggered |
Reference to an outside object that is the content behind the component. E.g. a field is representing a certain field of a database table: in this case you could define the value table;column. The reference plays a siginficant role within the attributemacro management.
ref | One reference |
ref1;ref2 | Two references |
ref1;ref2;ref3 | Three references |
Flag that indicated if this component is rendered at all. If set to false then the component is not rendered - there is no component data sent to the client.
true | Component is rendered (default) |
false | Component is not rendered |
Rounding radius of edges of border/background. This is optical rounding - so has nothing to do with mathematical rounding...
0 | Straight edges |
5 | Rounding with radius 5 |
10 | Rounding with radius 10 |
Pixel size which defines when the component will split up into two parallel areas. If not defined then the minimum size of the second content area will be taken as split size.
Splitsize derived from minimum size of second content area (default) | |
400 | 400 pixels |
800 | 800 pixels |
Style class names that are applied to this component.
In CaptainCasa you can define styles definitions for components. A style definition is a definition of a set of default attribute values that are applied to the component. In case you want to differenciate between different usage types of the component you can apply multiple styles - and use the stylevariant attribute to select between.
Width of the control. Either defined as absolute value or as percentage value. Pay attention when using percentage sizing: the size refers to what is given from the components above. When using percentage sizing then you may define a minimum size in addition, by appending it with a semicolon: "100%;100" means: use 100%, but always keep a minimum size of 100. If using absolute sizes you may append a "+" to define, that the size is extended if required by the component. - Please note: the sizing may be completely taken over by the parent component (e.g. if a component is used in a grid cell), in this case the size definintions on this component level are obsolete.
