The default Renderer instance.

Accessors

contentNode

  • get contentNode(): HTMLUListElement

  • The command palette content node.

    Notes

    This is the node which holds the command item nodes.

    Modifying this node directly can lead to undefined behavior.

    Returns HTMLUListElement

dataset

  • get dataset(): DOMStringMap

disposed

  • get disposed(): ISignal<this, void>

  • A signal emitted when the widget is disposed.

    Returns ISignal<this, void>

id

  • get id(): string
  • set id(value: string): void

  • Get the id of the widget's DOM node.

    Returns string

  • Set the id of the widget's DOM node.

    Parameters

    • value: string

    Returns void

inputNode

  • get inputNode(): HTMLInputElement

  • The command palette input node.

    Notes

    This is the actual input node for the search area.

    Returns HTMLInputElement

isAttached

  • get isAttached(): boolean

isDisposed

  • get isDisposed(): boolean

isHidden

  • get isHidden(): boolean

isVisible

  • get isVisible(): boolean

  • Test whether the widget is visible.

    Notes

    A widget is visible when it is attached to the DOM, is not explicitly hidden, and has no explicitly hidden ancestors.

    Returns boolean

items

  • get items(): ReadonlyArray<IItem>

layout

  • get layout(): Layout | null
  • set layout(value: Layout | null): void

  • Get the layout for the widget.

    Notes

    The layout is single-use only. It cannot be changed after the first assignment.

    The layout is disposed automatically when the widget is disposed.

    Returns Layout | null

  • Set the layout for the widget.

    Notes

    The layout is single-use only. It cannot be changed after the first assignment.

    The layout is disposed automatically when the widget is disposed.

    Parameters

    Returns void

parent

  • get parent(): Widget | null
  • set parent(value: Widget | null): void

  • Get the parent of the widget.

    Notes

    Children are typically added to a widget by using a layout, which means user code will not normally set the parent widget directly.

    The widget will be automatically removed from its old parent.

    This is a no-op if there is no effective parent change.

    Returns Widget | null

  • Set the parent of the widget.

    Notes

    Children are typically added to a widget by using a layout, which means user code will not normally set the parent widget directly.

    The widget will be automatically removed from its old parent.

    This is a no-op if there is no effective parent change.

    Parameters

    Returns void

searchNode

  • get searchNode(): HTMLDivElement

  • The command palette search node.

    Notes

    This is the node which contains the search-related elements.

    Returns HTMLDivElement

title

  • The title object for the widget.

    Notes

    The title object is used by some container widgets when displaying the widget alongside some title, such as a tab panel or side bar.

    Since not all widgets will use the title, it is created on demand.

    The owner property of the title is set to this widget.

    Returns Title<Widget>
