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 |

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).

Name that is assigned to the component at client side: there is no specific function associated with the name - but it can be used on client side to describe the component in a clearer way. The name is e.g. used by UI test tools that replay certain user interaction sequences - and that reference components via their name.
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.
Defines if the component is focusable. The default depends on the component: typical input components (field, check box, ...) are focusable by default, while typical structure components (pane, label, ...) are not focusable by default.
| true | Focusable |
| false | Not focusable |
Semicolon separated list of font attributes. Valid attributes are: faces (font family), size (integer number), weight (bold), posture (italic)

Reference to image within your web application. The image is defined in an absolute way (e.g. /images/abc.png) - the root directory for absolute addressing is the directory of the web application.
| /images/abc.png | Image /images/abc.png |
| /images/svg/def.svg | Image /images/svg/def.svg |
If true then the border and the padding of the component is kept. Otherwise border and padding are managed by the grid.
| false | Border/padding are removed by grid processing (default) |
| true | Border/padding of component are kept. |
If set to true then the text is rendered in multiple lines if required.
| false | Single line (default) |
| true | Multi line |
Reference to the id of a POPUPMENU definition that is available either in this page or in a page that includes this page.
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 |
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.
Text that is shown and (dependent from the component type) edited inside the component. The terminator is a decimal byte value.
Abbreviated text that is shown if there is not sufficient screen space for the normal text.
Cut the text if no sufficient space available.
| true | Cut text if not enough space |
| false | Do not cut text (default) |
Width of the text label that is part of the column header. By default this is 100%, because the label spans the whole column header. But you may set an explicit value when using the possibility to explicitly arrange a component on the right of the text.
| 100 | 100 Pixels |
| 120 | 120 Pixels |
| 200 | 200 Pixels |
| 50% | 50 percents |
| 100% | Full available width |
Text that is shown as hint when the user stays with the mouse on top of the control for a while.
| ...anytext... | Text that is displayed as tooltip. |
| server:true | Indicator that tooltip for the component is managed on server side. The actionListener will be invokde with events BaseActionEventTooltipStarted and BaseActionEventTooltipEnde. On server side you may implement some modeless popup in order to show some more complex tooltip |
| server:true;opendelay:1000 | Duration in milliseconds after which a tooltip event is triggered when the user moves the mouse on top of this component |
If set to true then a SMARTLABEL is user for rendering the text. This allows you to pass smart text definitions as text.
| false | Normal label used (default) |
| true | Smart label used (single line) |
| multiline | Smart label used (multi line) |
