Binding to server side method that processes the events coming from this component.
The attribute value must be an expression.
| #{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).
The attribute value must be an expression.
| #{tobedefined} | Binding to IComponentAdapter instance |
If set to true then changes of the width/height of the component are animated.
| true | With animation |
| false | Without animation (default) |
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.
The attribute value must not be changed once the component is created.
In case the space provided by the container (e.g. gridlayoutcontainer) for the component is wider than the component itself: definition where to place the component
| left | Left (default) |
| center | Center |
| right | Right |
Spanning of columns if used inside a COLSYNCHEDROW or inside a GRIDLAYOUTPANE.
| 1 | Control spans one column (default) |
| 2 | 2 columns |
| 3 | 3 columns |
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.
In case the content of the component exceeds the available height and in case the height is defined as percentage value then the content by default will expand the height correspondingly. But, if defined as true, then the content will be cut.
| true | Cut content to fit into available height |
| false | Expand surrounding layout (default) |
In case the content of the component exceeds the available width and in case the width is defined as percentage value then the content by default will expand the width correspondingly. But, if defined as true, then the content will be cut.
| true | Cut content to fit into available width |
| false | Expand surrounding layout (default) |
Indicator if data changed in the component are transferred immediately to the server, causing a normal round trip processing from client to server.
| true | Flush is done on data change. |
| false | No flush. Data is transferred to server with next round trip. |
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 use an extended syntax: "xxx%;<min>;<max>": in this case the minimum and maximum definitions are respected. 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 |
| 100%;100 | Full available height, minimum 100 pixels |
| 100%;100;500 | Full available height, minimum 100 pixels, maximum 500 pixels |
| 100%;;500 | Full available height, maximum 500 pixels |
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.
The attribute value must not be changed once the component is created.
| 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.
The attribute value must be an expression.
| true | Component is rendered (default) |
| false | Component is not rendered |
Fix side of rotation
| left (default) | |
| left | left side |
| right | right side |
Rotation angle along in degrees
| 0 | no rotation (default) |
| 10 | Rotation by 10 degrees to the back |
| 20 | Rotation by 20 degrees to the back |
| 30 | Rotation by 30 degrees to the back |
| 40 | Rotation by 40 degrees to the back |
Definition if the content should be rotated or not. Changing this value by binding it to an expression will execute the correpsonding rotation. This value is used in two directions! If the user rotates the content on client side then the corresponding value will be updated on server side.
The attribute value must be an expression.
| true | rotated (default) |
| false | not rotated |
If more than one component is arranged within one row, then components need to decide how they want to be aligned vertically inside the row - in case the height of the row exceeds the height of the component itself.
| top | Top |
| center | Center (default) |
| bottom | Bottom |
Spanning of rows if used inside a GRIDLAYOUTPANE.
| 1 | Control spans one row (default) |
| 2 | 2 rows |
| 3 | 3 rows |
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 use an extended syntax: "xxx%;<min>;<max>": in this case the minimum and maximum definitions are respected. - 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 |

| 100%;100 | Full available width, minimum 100 pixels |
| 100%;100;500 | Full available width, minimum 100 pixels, maximum 500 pixels |
| 100%;;500 | Full available width, maximum 500 pixels |
Defines if icon for triggering the rotation is available.
| true | Rotate icon is shown (default) |
| false | Rotate icon is not shown |
x-pixel-position: this attribute is only used if the component is directly placed into a PAINTAREA!
y-pixel-position: this attribute is only used if the component is directly placed into a PAINTAREA!
