ListButton: show popup only on triangle click
---------------------------------------------
Key: PIVOT-458
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-458
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: wtk-terra
Reporter: Dirk Moebius
Priority: Minor
Attachments: listbutton-popup.patch
I found this to be a requirement in my application: if the user clicks the
label part of a LinkButton, the button should fire immediately without showing
the popup, thus invoking the action with the currently selected entry. If the
user clicks the triangle part, the popup should be shown.
I patched LinkButton to add a new boolean property called
"showPopupOnTriggerClickOnly" to TerraListButtonSkin (I couldn't think of a
better name, sorry). If set to true, the ListButton popup will only show up if
the user clicks the triangle, but not if the user clicks the rest of the
button. However, ButtonPressListeners fire as usual, if the user clicks any
part of the button. If the property is false, the behavior is as it was before.
The default value of the property is false.
I tested the patch in my application and ComponentExplorer and it works good.
It would be nice if you integrate the patch. Otherwise I'd still have the
option to write a custom skin, but I think this patch could be interesting to
other developers as well.
