goog.ui.ToggleButton(content, opt_renderer, opt_domHelper)

A toggle button, with checkbox-like semantics. Rendered using {@link goog.ui.CustomButtonRenderer} by default, though any {@link goog.ui.ButtonRenderer} would work.

content {goog.ui.ControlContent}
Text caption or existing DOM structure to display as the button's caption.
opt_renderer {goog.ui.ButtonRenderer=}
Renderer used to render or decorate the button; defaults to {@link goog.ui.CustomButtonRenderer}.
opt_domHelper {goog.dom.DomHelper=}
Optional DOM hepler, used for document interaction.

.addChild(child, opt_render)

Inherited from goog.ui.Component .

Adds the specified component as the last child of this component. See {@link goog.ui.Component#addChildAt} for detailed semantics.

child {goog.ui.Component}
The new child component.
opt_render {boolean=}
If true, the child component will be rendered into the parent.
@see
goog.ui.Component#addChildAt

.addChildAt(child, index, opt_render)

Inherited from goog.ui.Component .

Adds the specified component as a child of this component at the given 0-based index. Both {@code addChild} and {@code addChildAt} assume the following contract between parent and child components:

In particular, {@code parent.addChild(child)} will throw an error if the child component is already in the document, but the parent isn't. Clients of this API may call {@code addChild} and {@code addChildAt} with {@code opt_render} set to true. If {@code opt_render} is true, calling these methods will automatically render the child component's element into the parent component's element. However, {@code parent.addChild(child, true)} will throw an error if: If {@code opt_render} is true and the parent component is not already in the document, {@code enterDocument} will not be called on this component at this point. Finally, this method also throws an error if the new child already has a different parent, or the given index is out of bounds.
child {goog.ui.Component}
The new child component.
index {number}
0-based index at which the new child component is to be added; must be between 0 and the current child count (inclusive).
opt_render {boolean=}
If true, the child component will be rendered into the parent.
returns {void}
Nada.

If any of the listeners returns false OR calls preventDefault then this function will return false. If one of the capture listeners calls stopPropagation, then the bubble listeners won't fire.

e {string|Object|goog.events.Event}
Event object.
returns {boolean}
If anyone called preventDefault on the event object (or if any of the handlers returns false this will also return false.

.dispose()

Inherited from goog.Disposable .

Disposes of the object. If the object hasn't already been disposed of, calls {@link #disposeInternal}. Classes that extend {@code goog.Disposable} should override {@link #disposeInternal} in order to delete references to COM objects, DOM nodes, and other disposable objects. Reentrant.

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Handles blur events on the component's key event target element. Always deactivates the component. In addition, if the component is focusable, updates its state and styling to indicate that it no longer has keyboard focus. Considered protected; should only be used within this package and by subclasses. Warning: IE dispatches focus and blur events asynchronously!

e {goog.events.Event}
Blur event to handle.

.handleContextMenu

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Handles contextmenu events.

e {goog.events.BrowserEvent}
Event to handle.

.handleDblClick(e)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Handles dblclick events. Should only be registered if the user agent is IE. If the component is enabled, performs its associated action by calling {@link performActionInternal}. This is used to allow more performant buttons in IE. In IE, no mousedown event is fired when that mousedown will trigger a dblclick event. Because of this, a user clicking quickly will only cause ACTION events to fire on every other click. This is a workaround to generate ACTION events for every click. Unfortunately, this workaround won't ever trigger the ACTIVE state. This is roughly the same behaviour as if this were a 'button' element with a listener on mouseup. Considered protected; should only be used within this package and by subclasses.

e {goog.events.Event}
Mouse event to handle.

.handleFocus(e)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Handles focus events on the component's key event target element. If the component is focusable, updates its state and styling to indicate that it now has keyboard focus. Considered protected; should only be used within this package and by subclasses. Warning: IE dispatches focus and blur events asynchronously!

e {goog.events.Event}
Focus event to handle.

.handleKeyEvent(e)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Key event to handle.
returns {boolean}
Whether the key event was handled.

.handleMouseDown(e)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Handles mousedown events. If the component is enabled, highlights and activates it. If the component isn't configured for keyboard access, prevents it from receiving keyboard focus. Considered protected; should only be used within this package andy by subclasses.

e {goog.events.Event}
Mouse event to handle.

.handleMouseOut(e)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Handles mouseout events. Dispatches a LEAVE event; if the event isn't canceled, and the component supports auto-highlighting, deactivates and un-highlights the component. Considered protected; should only be used within this package and by subclasses.

e {goog.events.BrowserEvent}
Mouse event to handle.

.handleMouseOver(e)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Handles mouseover events. Dispatches an ENTER event; if the event isn't canceled, the component is enabled, and it supports auto-highlighting, highlights the component. Considered protected; should only be used within this package and by subclasses.

e {goog.events.BrowserEvent}
Mouse event to handle.

.handleMouseUp(e)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Handles mouseup events. If the component is enabled, highlights it. If the component has previously been activated, performs its associated action by calling {@link performActionInternal}, then deactivates it. Considered protected; should only be used within this package and by subclasses.

Returns true if the component is active (pressed), false otherwise.

returns {boolean}
Whether the component is active.

.isAllowTextSelection()

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

.isHandleMouseEvents()

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Returns true if the control is configured to handle its own mouse events, false otherwise. Controls not hosted in {@link goog.ui.Container}s have to handle their own mouse events, but controls hosted in containers may allow their parent to handle mouse events on their behalf. Considered protected; should only be used within this package and by subclasses.

returns {boolean}
Whether the control handles its own mouse events.

Returns true if the component's visibility is set to visible, false if it is set to hidden. A component that is set to hidden is guaranteed to be hidden from the user, but the reverse isn't necessarily true. A component may be set to visible but can otherwise be obscured by another element, rendered off-screen, or hidden using direct CSS manipulation.

returns {boolean}
Whether the component is visible.

.makeId(idFragment)

Inherited from goog.ui.Component .

Helper function for subclasses that gets a unique id for a given fragment, this can be used by components to generate unique string ids for DOM elements.

idFragment {string}
A partial id.
returns {string}
Unique element id.

.makeIds(object)

Removes the given child from this component, and returns it. Throws an error if the argument is invalid or if the specified child isn't found in the parent component. The argument can either be a string (interpreted as the ID of the child component to remove) or the child component itself. If {@code opt_unrender} is true, calls {@link goog.ui.component#exitDocument} on the removed child, and subsequently detaches the child's DOM from the document. Otherwise it is the caller's responsibility to clean up the child component's DOM.

child {string|goog.ui.Component|null}
The ID of the child to remove, or the child component itself.
opt_unrender {boolean=}
If true, calls {@code exitDocument} on the removed child component, and detaches its DOM from the document.

opt_handlerScope {Object=}
Object in whose scope to call the listener.

.render(opt_parentElement)

Inherited from goog.ui.Component .

Renders the component. If a parent element is supplied, the component's element will be appended to it. If there is no optional parent element and the element doesn't have a parentNode then it will be appended to the document body. If this component has a parent component, and the parent component is not in the document already, then this will not call {@code enterDocument} on this component. Throws an Error if the component is already rendered.

opt_parentElement {Element=}

Enables or disables the component. Does nothing if this state transition is disallowed. If the component is both visible and focusable, updates its focused state and tab index as needed. If the component is being disabled, ensures that it is also deactivated and un-highlighted first. Note that the component's enabled/disabled state is "locked" as long as it is hosted in a {@link goog.ui.Container} that is itself disabled; this is to prevent clients from accidentally re-enabling a control that is in a disabled container.

enable {boolean}
Whether to enable or disable the component.
@see
#isTransitionAllowed

.setFocused(focused)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Applies or removes styling indicating that the component has keyboard focus. Note that unlike the other "set" methods, this method is called as a result of the component's element having received or lost keyboard focus, not the other way around, so calling {@code setFocused(true)} doesn't guarantee that the component's key event target has keyboard focus, only that it is styled as such.

focused {boolean}
Whether to apply or remove styling to indicate that the component's element has keyboard focus.

.setHandleMouseEvents(enable)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Enables or disables mouse event handling for the control. Containers may use this method to disable mouse event handling in their child controls. Considered protected; should only be used within this package and by subclasses.

.setHighlighted(highlight)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Highlights or unhighlights the component. Does nothing if this state transition is disallowed.

highlight {boolean}
Whether to highlight or unhighlight the component.
@see
#isTransitionAllowed

.setId(id)

Inherited from goog.ui.Component .

Assigns an ID to this component instance. It is the caller's responsibility to guarantee that the ID is unique. If the component is a child of a parent component, then the parent component's child index is updated to reflect the new ID; this may throw an error if the parent already has a child with an ID that conflicts with the new ID.

id {string}
Unique component ID.

.setModel(obj)

Inherited from goog.ui.Component .

Sets the model associated with the UI component.

obj {*}
The model.

Whether to open or close the component.
@see
#isTransitionAllowed

.setParent(parent)

Inherited from goog.ui.Component .

Sets the parent of this component to use for event bubbling. Throws an error if the component already has a parent or if an attempt is made to add a component to itself as a child. Callers must use {@code removeChild} or {@code removeChildAt} to remove components from their containers before calling this method.

parent {goog.ui.Component}
The parent component.
@see
goog.ui.Component#removeChild
@see
goog.ui.Component#removeChildAt

.setParentEventTarget(parent)

parent {goog.events.EventTarget?}
Parent EventTarget (null if none).

.setPreferredAriaRole(role)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

This is useful in cases where a different ARIA role is appropriate for a control because of the context in which it's used. E.g., a {@link goog.ui.MenuButton} added to a {@link goog.ui.Select} should have an ARIA role of LISTBOX and not MENUITEM.

role {goog.dom.a11y.Role}
This control's preferred ARIA role.

.setRenderer(renderer)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Registers the given renderer with the component. Changing renderers after the component has entered the document is an error.

renderer {goog.ui.ControlRenderer}
Renderer used by the component.
@throws
{Error} If the control is already in the document.

.setRightToLeft(rightToLeft)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Set is right-to-left. This function should be used if the component needs to know the rendering direction during dom creation (i.e. before {@link #enterDocument} is called and is right-to-left is set).

rightToLeft {boolean}
Whether the component is rendered right-to-left.

.setSelected(select)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Selects or unselects the component. Does nothing if this state transition is disallowed.

select {boolean}
Whether to select or unselect the component.
@see
#isTransitionAllowed

.setState(state, enable)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Sets or clears the given state on the component, and updates its styling accordingly. Does nothing if the component is already in the correct state or if it doesn't support the specified state. Doesn't dispatch any state transition events; use advisedly.

state {goog.ui.Component.State}
State to set or clear.
enable {boolean}
Whether to set or clear the state (if supported).

.setSupportedState(state, support)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Enables or disables support for the given state. Disabling support for a state while the component is in that state is an error.

state {goog.ui.Component.State}
State to support or de-support.
support {boolean}
Whether the component should support the state.
@throws
{Error} If disabling support for a state the control is currently in.

.setTooltip(tooltip)

Inherited from goog.ui.Button .

Sets the tooltip for the button, and updates its DOM.

tooltip {string}
New tooltip text.

.setValue(value)

Inherited from goog.ui.Button .

Sets the value associated with the button, and updates its DOM.

value {*}
New button value.

.setVisible(visible, opt_force)

Inherited from goog.ui.Control .

Shows or hides the component. Does nothing if the component already has the requested visibility. Otherwise, dispatches a SHOW or HIDE event as appropriate, giving listeners a chance to prevent the visibility change. When showing a component that is both enabled and focusable, ensures that its key target has a tab index. When hiding a component that is enabled and focusable, blurs its key target and removes its tab index.

visible {boolean}
Whether to show or hide the component.
opt_force {boolean=}
If true, doesn't check whether the component already has the requested visibility, and doesn't dispatch any events.
returns {boolean}
Whether the visibility was changed.

.wasDecorated()

Inherited from goog.ui.Component .

returns {boolean}
Whether the component was decorated.
