No deselect event for tagfield? - extjs

Can somebody explain why there's only beforedeselect event but not "deselect" or "afterdeselect"?
Is there a way to get around this limitation? I need to execute code everytime an item is deselected.
Thanks.

TagField extends from Combobox.
Inside the Ext.form.field.ComboBox listeners are added to the selectionModel.
These include only beforeselect and beforedeselect, but not select.
The beforedeselect is fired inside the onBeforeDeselect method.
If you want to add it you have to override onBindStore and createPicker.
The selectionModel is extended from Ext.selection.DataViewModel. You can find all events there.
Example (just wrote it down you have to complete it):
Ext.define('MyApp.overrides.form.field.ComboBox', {
override: 'Ext.form.field.ComboBox',
onBindStore: function() {
this.callParent(arguments);
const me = this,
picker = me.picker;
if (picker) {
me.pickerSelectionModel.on({
scope: me,
deselect: me.onDeselect,
afterdeselect: me.onAfterDeselect
});
}
},
onDeselect: Ext.emptyFn,
onAfterDeselect: Ext.emptyFn
});

Extjs Grid ApplyState not reflecting the changes | Hide issue

When we have multiple parent-child grid and want to re config the grid after load call like this:
listeners: {
'afterrender': function (grid) {
var state =grid.getState();
state.columns[1].hidden= true;
grid.applyState(state);
}
}
This behaviour is even still reproducable on ExtJS 6.5.1.
For Example
https://www.sencha.com/forum/showthread.php?306941-Apply-state-after-grid-reconfigure
Here's an override I've been using to fix the hidden columns issue. I am using 6.6 so not sure if this will work in 4.4, though. Also, you may not need to suspend/resume layouts but not sure on that either.
Ext.define('MyApp.overrides.Grid', {
override: 'Ext.grid.Panel',
applyState: function () {
this.callParent(arguments);
Ext.suspendLayouts();
Ext.each(this.getColumns(), function (column) {
if (column.hidden) {
column.show();
column.hide();
}
});
Ext.resumeLayouts(true);
}
});
Well it's still an issue with applyState. When grid is having multiple hidden columns and we use applyState function it crash our grid. So we have skip the hidden property part although it's working smooth for width change , filters etc.
listeners: {
'afterrender': function (grid) {
var state =grid.getState();
state.columns[1].hidden= false;
grid.applyState(state);
grid.columns[3].hidden = true;
}
}
if you manually set hidden property of column it'll hide it.

override messagebox and add icons to the default buttons

Does anyone know here how to override the messagebox to put icons for the buttons? i.e: check icon for YES/OK, cross button for NO, etc.
I've tried to override the makeButton function of Ext.window.MessageBox but it doesn't seem to work and doesn't even hit the debugger:
Ext.override(Ext.window.MessageBox, {
makeButton: function (btnIdx) {
debugger;
var btnId = this.buttonIds[btnIdx];
return new Ext.button.Button({
handler: this.btnCallback,
itemId: btnId,
scope: this,
text: this.buttonText[btnId],
minWidth: 75,
iconCls: ['check', 'no', 'cancel', 'blah'][btnId]
});
}
});
As #scebotari66 have stated, Ext.Msg and Ext.MessageBox are singletons of Ext.window.MessageBox. So when you override Ext.window.MessageBox.makeButton, this will have no effect if you are using the singletons for this class.
However, there is a way to apply your overrides to Ext.window.MessageBox to the singleton. Guess how.
(drumroll)
tantantanan!
Ext.MessageBox = Ext.Msg = new Ext.window.MessageBox();
Yep, that's correct. You just need to re-assign the singleton after your override.
So:
Ext.override(Ext.window.MessageBox, {
makeButton: function (btnIdx) {
var btnId = this.buttonIds[btnIdx];
return new Ext.button.Button({
handler: this.btnCallback,
itemId: btnId,
scope: this,
text: this.buttonText[btnId],
iconCls: ['okbutton', 'yesbutton', 'closebutton', 'cancelbutton'][btnIdx],
minWidth: 75 //or you can also remove this to make the icons close to the label
});
}
});
//re-assign singleton to apply overrides
Ext.MessageBox = Ext.Msg = new Ext.window.MessageBox();
Next time you call Ext.Msg.alert(), your icons are now showing too.
I hope you find this helpful.
NOTE: The iconCls config should be in the order [ok, yes, no, cancel]
As you can see from the source code, the makeButton method is called from initComponent of Ext.window.MessageBox.
I assume that you are using the Ext.MessageBox (or Ext.Msg) singleton instance for displaying message boxes. This instance is created in the callback function immediately after the Ext.window.MessageBox is created (check the third argument from Ext.define). This also means that it happens before your override.
So you can directly override the buttons of the singleton instance like so:
Ext.Msg.msgButtons.ok.setIconCls(okBtnCls);
Ext.Msg.msgButtons.yes.setIconCls(yesBtnCls);
Ext.Msg.msgButtons.no.setIconCls(noBtnCls);
Ext.Msg.msgButtons.cancel.setIconCls(cancelBtnCls);
You can also rely on your makeButton override if you will show message boxes by creating a new instance of the class:
var myMsg = Ext.create('Ext.window.MessageBox', {
closeAction: 'destroy'
}).show({
title: 'Custom MessageBox Instance',
message: 'I can exist along with Ext.Msg'
});

Ext not defined on RowModel's select event

I have a form bound to a grid where a user can either create a new user or select a row in the grid and edit a user. Selecting a row in a grid should change some button visibility. Anyway my main obstacle is that Ext seems not to be fully loaded on the row select event. The error I get in firebug is:
TypeError: Ext.getCmp(...) is undefined
Here is a snippet of code from my MVC controller:
....
init: function() {
this.control({
'userlist': {
selectionchange: this.gridSelectionChange,
viewready: this.onViewReady,
select: this.onRowSelect
},
'useredit button[action=update]': {
click: this.updateUser
},
'useredit button[action=create]': {
click: this.createUser
}
});
},
onRowSelect: function(model, record, index, opts) {
// Switch to the Edit/Save button
//console.log(model);
Ext.getCmp('pplmgr-user-create').hide();
Ext.getCmp('pplmgr-user-create').show();
Ext.getCmp('id=pplmgr-user-reset').show();
},
....
Is there some other method/event for accomplishing this? I've tried in both selectionchange and select events and I have also tried using the Ext.Component.Query and it just seems that Ext is not yet available in these events. I'd appreciate any assistance including informing me of a better practice to accomplish the same thing.
Ext.getCmp takes an id as its parameter. Your third call to it has id=..., the "id=" part is confusing getCmp, so it's returning undefined.
If you change the last call to just the id, you should be ok:
Ext.getCmp('pplmgr-user-reset').show();
If you have a reference to your view, you can try this:
myView.down('pplmgr-user-create').hide();
....
....

ExtJS 4: How to know when any field in a form (Ext.form.Panel) changes?

I'd like a single event listener that fires whenever any field in a form (i.e., Ext.form.Panel) changes. The Ext.form.Panel class doesn't fire an event for this itself, however.
What's the best way to listen for 'change' events for all fields in a form?
Update: Added a 3rd option based on tip in comments (thanks #innerJL!)
Ok, looks like there are at least two fairly simple ways to do it.
Option 1) Add a 'change' listener to each field that is added to the form:
Ext.define('myapp.MyFormPanel', {
extend: 'Ext.form.Panel',
alias: 'myapp.MyFormPanel',
...
handleFieldChanged: function() {
// Do something
},
listeners: {
add: function(me, component, index) {
if( component.isFormField ) {
component.on('change', me.handleFieldChanged, me);
}
}
}
});
This has at least one big drawback; if you "wrap" some fields in other containers and then add those containers to the form, it won't recognize the nested fields. In other words, it doesn't do a "deep" search through the component to see if it contains form field that need 'change' listeners.
Option 2) Use a component query to listen to all 'change' events fired from fields in a container.
Ext.define('myapp.MyController', {
extend: 'Ext.app.Controller',
...
init: function(application) {
me.control({
'[xtype="myapp.MyFormPanel"] field': {
change: function() {
// Do something
}
}
});
}
});
Option 3) Listen for the 'dirtychange' fired from the form panel's underlying 'basic' form (Ext.form.Basic). Important: You need to make sure you must enable 'trackResetOnLoad' by ensuring that {trackResetOnLoad:true} is passed to your form panel constructor.
Ext.define('myapp.MyFormPanel', {
extend: 'Ext.form.Panel',
alias: 'myapp.MyFormPanel',
constructor: function(config) {
config = config || {};
config.trackResetOnLoad = true;
me.callParent([config]);
me.getForm().on('dirtychange', function(form, isDirty) {
if( isDirty ) {
// Unsaved changes exist
}
else {
// NO unsaved changes exist
}
});
}
});
This approach is the "smartest"; it allows you to know when the form has been modified, but also if the user modifies it back to it's original state. For example, if they change a text field from "Foo" to "Bar", the 'dirtychange' event will fire with 'true' for the isDirty param. But if the user then changes the field back to "Foo", the 'dirtychange' event will fire again and isDirty will be false.
I want to complement Clint's answer. There is one more approach (and I think it's the best for your problem). Just add change listener to form's defaults config:
Ext.create('Ext.form.Panel', {
// ...
defaults: {
listeners: {
change: function(field, newVal, oldVal) {
//alert(newVal);
}
}
},
// ...
});

Extended ExtJS Class can't find custom listener function - "oe is undefined"

I'm adding a custom context menu to a TreePanel.
This was all working when I had a separate function for the context menu, but I was having problems where the context menu items would end up doubled/tripling up if I clicked on one of the options and then viewed the context menu again.
I had a look around for other contextmenu examples and came up with this one by Aaron Conran I pretty much "stole" it wholesale with a few additions, tacking the function directly into the Ext.ext.treePanel config. This gave me an error about "oe is undefined" which seemed to refer to "contextmenu: this.onContextMenu" in the tree config.
I figured it was probably something to do with the way I was defining all of this, so I decided to look at extending Ext.ext.TreePanel with my function in it as a learning exercise as much as anything.
Unfortunately, having managed to sort out extending TreePanel I'm now back to getting "oe is undefined" when the page tries to build the TreePanel. I've had a look around and I'm not really sure whats causing the problem, so any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the code that is used to define/build the tree panel. I hope its not too horrible.
siteTree = Ext.extend(Ext.tree.TreePanel,{
constructor : function(config){
siteTree.superclass.constructor.call(this, config);
},
onContextMenu: function(n,e){
if (!this.contextMenu){
console.log('treeContextMenu',n,e);
if (n.parentNode.id == 'treeroot'){
var menuitems = [{text:'Add Child',id:'child'}];
} else {
var menuitems =
[{text:'Add Child',id:'child'},
{text:'Add Above',id:'above'},
{text:'Add Below',id:'below'}];
}
this.contextMenu = new Ext.menu.Menu({
id:'treeContextMenu',
defaults :{
handler : treeContextClick,
fqResourceURL : n.id
},
items : menuitems
});
}
var xy = e.getXY();
this.contextMenu.showAt(xy);
}
});
var treePanel = new siteTree({
id: 'tree-panel',
title : 'Site Tree',
region : 'center',
height : 300,
minSize: 150,
autoScroll: true,
// tree-specific configs:
rootVisible: false,
lines: false,
singleExpand: true,
useArrows: true,
dataUrl:'admin.page.getSiteTreeChildren?'+queryString,
root: {
id: 'treeroot',
nodeType: 'async',
text: 'nowt here',
draggable: false
},
listeners:{
contextmenu: this.onContextMenu
}
});
As a total aside; Is there a better way to do this in my context menu function?
if (n.parentNode.id == 'treeroot') {
Basically, if the clicked node is the top level I only want to give the user an add Child option, not add above/below.
Thanks in advance for your help
In your instantiation of your siteTree class you have:
listeners: {
contextmenu: this.onContextMenu
}
However, at the time of the instantiation this.onContextMenu is not pointing to the onContextMenu method you defined in siteTree.
One way of fixing it is to call the method from within a wrapper function:
listeners: {
contextmenu: function() {
this.onContextMenu();
}
}
Assuming you don't override the scope in the listeners config 'this' will be pointing to the siteTree instance at the time the listener is executed.
However, since you are already defining the context menu in the siteTree class, you may as well define the listener there:
constructor: function( config ) {
siteTree.superclass.constructor.call(this, config);
this.on('contextmenu', this.onContextMenu);
}
Ensuring the context menu is removed with the tree is also a good idea. This makes your siteTree definition:
var siteTree = Ext.extend(Ext.tree.TreePanel, {
constructor: function( config ) {
siteTree.superclass.constructor.call(this, config);
this.on('contextmenu', this.onContextMenu);
this.on('beforedestroy', this.onBeforeDestroy);
},
onContextMenu: function( node, event ) {
/* create and show this.contextMenu as needed */
},
onBeforeDestroy: function() {
if ( this.contextMenu ) {
this.contextMenu.destroy();
delete this.contextMenu;
}
}
});
I had this problem yesterday. The issue with the duplicate and triplicate items in the context menu is due to extjs adding multiple elements to the page with the same ID. Each time you call this.contextMenu.showAt(xy) you are adding a div with the ID 'treeContextMenu' to the page. Most browsers, IE especially, deal with this poorly. The solution is to remove the old context menu before adding the new one.
Here is an abridged version of my code:
var old = Ext.get("nodeContextMenu");
if(!Ext.isEmpty(old)) {
old.remove();
}
var menu = new Ext.menu.Menu({
id:'nodeContextMenu',
shadow:'drop',
items: [ ... ]
});
menu.showAt(e.xy);
I suggest never using hardcoded IDs. #aplumb suggests cleaning the DOM to reuse an existing ID. OK, but I suggest you cleanup the DOM when you no longer need the widgets/elements in the DOM and you should never reuse an ID.
var someId = Ext.id( null, 'myWidgetId' );
var someElement = new SuperWidget({
id: someId,
...
});
Just to add to owlness's answer
This bit here:
listeners: {
contextmenu: this.onContextMenu
}
Gets executed when the javascript file is loaded. this at that stage is most likely pointing to the window object.
A simple way to fix it is adding the listener on hide event of context menu, so you destroy him.
new Ext.menu.Menu(
{
items:[...],
listeners: { hide: function(mn){ mn.destroy(); } }
}
).show(node.ui.getAnchor());
;)
