<af:panelSplitter>

UIComponent class: oracle.adf.view.rich.component.rich.layout.RichPanelSplitter
Component type: oracle.adf.RichPanelSplitter
Unsupported agents: pda

PanelSplitters are used to divide a region into two parts with a repositionable divider. The two parts are identified as the "first" facet and the "second" facet. If the contained component supports it, the contents of a section will stretch to fill up all available space in that section. The panel splitter can be adjusted with the mouse, by pressing a collapse button, or by use of the arrow keys when the splitter is selected. A panel splitter can split horizontally or vertically based on the orientation attribute.

If you use an <af:showPrintablePageBehaviorTag> within one of the panes of the splitter, only that pane will be present for printing when the user activates that behavior. If the behavior is outside of the splitter, the printed result will be roughly in line with the normal layout, which may mean that not all content will be visible. It's therefore encouraged to support printing from within any pane of a splitter where printing is important.

This component can be stretched by a parent layout component that stretches its children, e.g., panelStretchLayout, panelSplitter.
This component uses <f:facet name="first"> and <f:facet name="second"> to organize content into each splitter panel. Examples of child components that can be stretched inside of these facets include:
- <af:decorativeBox>
- <af:panelAccordion>
- <af:panelCollection>
- <af:panelGroupLayout layout="scroll">
- <af:panelGroupLayout layout="vertical">
- <af:panelSplitter>
- <af:panelStretchLayout>
- <af:panelTabbed>
- <af:region>
- <af:table>
- <af:tree>
- <af:treeTable>
If you try to put a component inside of this component and that child component does not support being stretched, then the component hierarchy is illegal. To make it legal, you need to insert another intermediate component between this component and the child component. This intermediate component must support being stretched and must not stretch its children. An example of such a component that is commonly used for this purpose is <af:panelGroupLayout layout="scroll">. By using a wrapper like this, you create a flowing layout area where nothing will be stretched inside of it. Examples of components that do not support being stretched inside of these panelStretchLayout facets (and therefore need to be wrapped) include:
- <af:panelBorderLayout>
- <af:panelBox>
- <af:panelFormLayout>
- <af:panelGroupLayout layout="default">
- <af:panelGroupLayout layout="horizontal">
- <af:panelHeader>
- <af:panelLabelAndMessage>
- <af:panelList>
- <trh:tableLayout>

Events

Type	Phases	Description
org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.event.AttributeChangeEvent	Invoke Application, Apply Request Values	Event delivered to describe an attribute change. Attribute change events are not delivered for any programmatic change to a property. They are only delivered when a renderer changes a property without the application's specific request. An example of an attribute change events might include the width of a column that supported client-side resizing.

Supported Facets

Name	Description
first	The first pane of this splitter
second	The second pane of this splitter

Attributes

Name	Type	Supports EL?	Description
attributeChangeListener	javax.el.MethodExpression	Only EL	a method reference to an attribute change listener. Attribute change events are not delivered for any programmatic change to a property. They are only delivered when a renderer changes a property without the application's specific request. An example of an attribute change events might include the width of a column that supported client-side resizing.
binding	oracle.adf.view.rich.component.<wbr/>rich.layout.RichPanelSplitter	Only EL	an EL reference that will store the component instance on a bean. This can be used to give programmatic access to a component from a backing bean, or to move creation of the component to a backing bean.
clientComponent	boolean	Yes	whether a client-side component will be generated. A component may be generated whether or not this flag is set, but if client Javascript requires the component object, this must be set to true to guarantee the component's presence. Client component objects that are generated today by default may not be present in the future; setting this flag is the only way to guarantee a component's presence, and clients cannot rely on implicit behavior. However, there is a performance cost to setting this flag, so clients should avoid turning on client components unless absolutely necessary.
collapsed	boolean	Yes	whether the splitter is in a collapsed state. When the splitter is collapsed (collapsed="true") and the splitter is positioned from the beginning (positionedFromEnd="false"), the first pane is hidden such that the second pane stretches to fill all available space. When the splitter is positioned from the end (positionedFromEnd="true"), collapsing the splitter hides the second pane. By default collapse is "false", which means that both panes are displayed.
customizationId	String	Yes	This attribute is deprecated. The 'id' attribute should be used when applying persistent customizations. This attribute will be removed in the next release.
disabled	boolean	Yes	an attribute which if set to "true", the component becomes non-interactive. Otherwise,the default value is "false" and component assumes its expected behavior.
dontPersist	String[]	Yes	a list of attributes whose changes are NOT to be persisted by FilteredPersistenceChangeManager via the "Persistent Change Manager" registered in adf-config.xml. Automatic component personalizations that are in this list would still persist to a session store.
id	String	No	the identifier for the component. The identifier must follow a subset of the syntax allowed in HTML: Must not be a zero-length String. First character must be an ASCII letter (A-Za-z) or an underscore ('_'). Subsequent characters must be an ASCII letter or digit (A-Za-z0-9), an underscore ('_'), or a dash ('-').
inlineStyle	String	Yes	the CSS styles to use for this component. This is intended for basic style changes. The inlineStyle is a set of CSS styles that are applied to the root DOM element of the component. If the inlineStyle's CSS properties do not affect the DOM element you want affected, then you will have to create a skin and use the skinning keys which are meant to target particular DOM elements, like ::label or ::icon-style.
orientation	String	Yes	Valid Values: horizontal, vertical whether a horizontal or vertical split is created. The string literal value of "horizontal" indicates that the splitter panes will be side-by-side, and a string literal value of "vertical" indicates the panes will be on top of each other.
partialTriggers	String[]	Yes	the IDs of the components that should trigger a partial update. This component will listen on the trigger components. If one of the trigger components receives an event that will cause it to update in some way, this component will request to be updated too. Identifiers are relative to the source component (this component), and must account for NamingContainers. If your component is already inside of a naming container, you can use a single colon to start the search from the root of the page, or multiple colons to move up through the NamingContainers - "::" will pop out of the component's naming container (or itself if the component is a naming container) and begin the search from there, ":::" will pop out of two naming containers (including itself if the component is a naming container) and begin the search from there, etc.
persist	String[]	Yes	a list of attributes whose changes are to be persisted by FilteredPersistenceChangeManager via the "Persistent Change Manager" registered in adf-config.xml. Automatic component personalizations that are not in this list would still persist to a session store.
positionedFromEnd	boolean	Yes	an attribute which if set to "false" (the default), the initial position of the repositionable divider is measured from the start side (the top or start).If the value is "true", the initial position of the repositionable divider is measured from the end side (the bottom or end).
rendered	boolean	Yes	whether the component is rendered. When set to false, no output will be delivered for this component (the component will not in any way be rendered, and cannot be made visible on the client).
shortDesc	String	Yes	the short description of the component. This text is commonly used by user agents to display tooltip help text, in which case the behavior for the tooltip is controlled by the user agent, e.g. Firefox 2 truncates long tooltips. For form components, the shortDesc is displayed in a note window.
splitterPosition	int	Yes	the initial position of the repositionable divider. The panelSplitter separates two areas with a separator. The user may drag this separator to adjust how much space is allocated for each area. This attribute specifies the number of pixels for the width or height (depending on the orientation) for one of the areas and the other area gets the remaining space. The positionedFromEnd attribute determines which area is sized and which area gets the remaining space.
styleClass	String	Yes	a CSS style class to use for this component. The style class can be defined in your jspx page or in a skinning CSS file, for example, or you can use one of our public style classes, like 'AFInstructionText'.
visible	boolean	Yes	the visibility of the component. If it is "false", the component will be hidden on the client. Unlike "rendered", this does not affect the lifecycle on the server - the component may have its bindings executed, etc. - and the visibility of the component can be toggled on and off on the client, or toggled with PPR. When "rendered" is false, the component will not in any way be rendered, and cannot be made visible on the client. In most cases, use the "rendered" property instead of the "visible" property. Not supported on the following renderkits: org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.core
