Class CQ.form.RichText

A DomHelper element spec, or true for a default element spec. Used to create the Element which will encapsulate this Component. See autoEl for details. Defaults to:

{tag: 'input', type: 'text', size: '20', autocomplete: 'off'}

True to use height:'auto', false to use fixed height (or allow it to be managed by its parent Container's layout manager. Defaults to false.

Note: Although many components inherit this config option, not all will function as expected with a height of 'auto'. Setting autoHeight:true means that the browser will manage height based on the element's contents, and that Ext will not manage it at all.

If the browser is managing the height, be aware that resizes performed by the browser in response to changes within the structure of the Component cannot be detected. Therefore changes to the height might result in elements needing to be synchronized with the new height. Example:

var w = new CQ.Ext.Window({
    title: 'Window',
    width: 600,
    autoHeight: true,
    items: {
        title: 'Collapse Me',
        height: 400,
        collapsible: true,
        border: false,
        listeners: {
            beforecollapse: function() {
                w.el.shadow.hide();
            },
            beforeexpand: function() {
                w.el.shadow.hide();
            },
            collapse: function() {
                w.syncShadow();
            },
            expand: function() {
                w.syncShadow();
            }
        }
    }
}).show();

The maximum value in pixels which this BoxComponent will set its height to.

Warning: This will override any size management applied by layout managers.

The minimum value in pixels which this BoxComponent will set its height to.

Warning: This will override any size management applied by layout managers.

An array of events that, when fired, should be bubbled to any parent container. See CQ.Ext.util.Observable.enableBubble. Defaults to [].

The label text to display next to this Component (defaults to '').

Note: this config is only used when this Component is rendered by a Container which has been configured to use the FormLayout layout manager (e.g. CQ.Ext.form.FormPanel or specifying layout:'form').

Also see hideLabel and CQ.Ext.layout.FormLayout.fieldTpl.

new CQ.Ext.FormPanel({
    height: 100,
    renderTo: CQ.Ext.getBody(),
    items: [{
        xtype: 'textfield',
        fieldLabel: 'Name'
    }]
});

Note: this config is only used when this Component is rendered by a Container which has been configured to use a BoxLayout. Each child Component with a flex property will be flexed either vertically (by a VBoxLayout) or horizontally (by an HBoxLayout) according to the item's relative flex value compared to the sum of all Components with flex value specified. Any child items that have either a flex = 0 or flex = undefined will not be 'flexed' (the initial size will not be changed).

true to completely hide the label element (label and separator). Defaults to false. By default, even if you do not specify a fieldLabel the space will still be reserved so that the field will line up with other fields that do have labels. Setting this to true will cause the field to not reserve that space.

Note: see the note for clearCls.

new CQ.Ext.FormPanel({
    height: 100,
    renderTo: CQ.Ext.getBody(),
    items: [{
        xtype: 'textfield'
        hideLabel: true
    }]
});

An itemId can be used as an alternative way to get a reference to a component when no object reference is available. Instead of using an id with CQ.getCmp, use itemId with CQ.Ext.Container.getComponent which will retrieve itemId's or id's. Since itemId's are an index to the container's internal MixedCollection, the itemId is scoped locally to the container -- avoiding potential conflicts with CQ.Ext.ComponentMgr which requires a unique id.

var c = new CQ.Ext.Panel({ //
    height: 300,
    renderTo: document.body,
    layout: 'auto',
    items: [
        {
            itemId: 'p1',
            title: 'Panel 1',
            height: 150
        },
        {
            itemId: 'p2',
            title: 'Panel 2',
            height: 150
        }
    ]
})
p1 = c.getComponent('p1'); // not the same as CQ.Ext.getCmp()
p2 = p1.ownerCt.getComponent('p2'); // reference via a sibling

Also see id and ref.

Note: to access the container of an item see ownerCt.

The separator to display after the text of each fieldLabel. This property may be configured at various levels. The order of precedence is:

Note: see the note for clearCls.

Also see hideLabel and CQ.Ext.layout.FormLayout.fieldTpl.

new CQ.Ext.FormPanel({
    height: 100,
    renderTo: CQ.Ext.getBody(),
    layoutConfig: {
        labelSeparator: '~'   // layout config has lowest priority (defaults to ':')
    },
    labelSeparator: '>>',     // config at container level
    items: [{
        xtype: 'textfield',
        fieldLabel: 'Field 1',
        labelSeparator: '...' // field/component level config supersedes others
    },{
        xtype: 'textfield',
        fieldLabel: 'Field 2' // labelSeparator will be '='
    }]
});

Note: this config is only used when this BoxComponent is rendered by a Container which has been configured to use the BorderLayout or one of the two BoxLayout subclasses.

An object containing margins to apply to this BoxComponent in the format:

{
    top: (top margin),
    right: (right margin),
    bottom: (bottom margin),
    left: (left margin)
}

May also be a string containing space-separated, numeric margin values. The order of the sides associated with each value matches the way CSS processes margin values:

Defaults to:

{top:0, right:0, bottom:0, left:0}

The location where the message text set through markInvalid should display. Must be one of the following values:

A path specification, relative to the Component's ownerCt specifying into which ancestor Container to place a named reference to this Component.

The ancestor axis can be traversed by using '/' characters in the path. For example, to put a reference to a Toolbar Button into the Panel which owns the Toolbar:

var myGrid = new CQ.Ext.grid.EditorGridPanel({
    title: 'My EditorGridPanel',
    store: myStore,
    colModel: myColModel,
    tbar: [{
        text: 'Save',
        handler: saveChanges,
        disabled: true,
        ref: '../saveButton'
    }],
    listeners: {
        afteredit: function() {
//          The button reference is in the GridPanel
            myGrid.saveButton.enable();
        }
    }
});

In the code above, if the ref had been 'saveButton' the reference would have been placed into the Toolbar. Each '/' in the ref moves up one level from the Component's ownerCt.

Also see the added and removed events.

An array of events that, when fired, should trigger this component to save its state (defaults to none). stateEvents may be any type of event supported by this component, including browser or custom events (e.g., ['click', 'customerchange']).

See stateful for an explanation of saving and restoring Component state.

A flag which causes the Component to attempt to restore the state of internal properties from a saved state on startup. The component must have either a stateId or id assigned for state to be managed. Auto-generated ids are not guaranteed to be stable across page loads and cannot be relied upon to save and restore the same state for a component.

For state saving to work, the state manager's provider must have been set to an implementation of CQ.Ext.state.Provider which overrides the set and get methods to save and recall name/value pairs. A built-in implementation, CQ.Ext.state.CookieProvider is available.

To set the state provider for the current page:

CQ.Ext.state.Manager.setProvider(new CQ.Ext.state.CookieProvider({
    expires: new Date(new Date().getTime()+(1000*60*60*24*7)), //7 days from now
}));

A stateful Component attempts to save state when one of the events listed in the stateEvents configuration fires.

To save state, a stateful Component first serializes its state by calling getState. By default, this function does nothing. The developer must provide an implementation which returns an object hash which represents the Component's restorable state.

The value yielded by getState is passed to CQ.Ext.state.Manager.set which uses the configured CQ.Ext.state.Provider to save the object keyed by the Component's stateId, or, if that is not specified, its id.

During construction, a stateful Component attempts to restore its state by calling CQ.Ext.state.Manager.get passing the stateId, or, if that is not specified, the id.

The resulting object is passed to applyState. The default implementation of applyState simply copies properties into the object, but a developer may override this to support more behaviour.

You can perform extra processing on state save and restore by attaching handlers to the beforestaterestore, staterestore, beforestatesave and statesave events.

new CQ.Ext.Panel({
    title: 'Some Title',
    renderTo: CQ.Ext.getBody(),
    width: 400, height: 300,
    layout: 'form',
    items: [{
        xtype: 'textarea',
        style: {
            width: '95%',
            marginBottom: '10px'
        }
    },
        new CQ.Ext.Button({
            text: 'Send',
            minWidth: '100',
            style: {
                marginBottom: '10px'
            }
        })
    ]
});

Note: this config is only used when this BoxComponent is a child item of a TabPanel.
