[CLOSED] TriggerField + TriggerButton?? + TriggerArea??

[state]

Alright, so I have a three part question here.

First, are you able to change the icon of the TriggerField to one of the provided icons in Coolite?


Second, the TriggerField is a nifty feature, but I need something that looks more like the normal Ext.Button that is to the right of the TextField? *Is this possible -- kind of like a TriggerButton? *Because I need Text and an Icon.


Finally, I need the same functionality of a "TriggerButton" but it works with a "TextArea" instead of a text field.


Is any of this possible?




Thanks.

Is any of this possible?

hmmm. Not really. At least, not easily implemented.

I'll have to think about this and discuss with Vladimir.

Ok, maybe I misunderstood...

First, are you able to change the icon of the TriggerField to one of the provided icons in Coolite?

No, the TriggerField uses a different style of button/icon which generally not compatible with the .Icons.

Second, the TriggerField is a nifty feature, but I need something that looks more like the normal Ext.Button that is to the right of the TextField? Is this possible -- kind of like a TriggerButton? Because I need Text and an Icon.

How about just adding an <ext:Button> control beside an <ext:TextField>? In order to get the alignment right, the two might have to be placed in separate <table> cells or <ext:Cell>'s if using the <ext:TableLayout>.

Basically, the same as above... <ext:TextArea> <ext:Button>

Yes. I have tried using tables and Cells.

However, in some instances, when I need the TextField to have a width of 100% (I use StyleSpec to accomplish this), the TextField will overlap the button OR the button will be cut off, as if it was run off the container.

And placing them side-by-side, causes them to appear on other lines (if they aren't placed in a table or layout).

I thought there might be another "ExtJS/Coolite" way of doing this.

Thanks.

We added a new control called <ext:MultiField> which allows multiple Field type controls to be configured and rendered inline.

We're making a new example demonstrating it's use which should be ready shortly.


The <ext:MultiField> control has been committed to SVN and will be publicly available with the v0.8 release.*

There is a <ext:MultiField> example in the Examples Explorer at the following location (SVN only) ...

Hey, thanks a lot for this. Going to make my development a lot easier on the UI side!

Thanks again!
