Hi,
I would like to use a checkbox and an icon with onClick screen actions in the title of the Accordion component, without the Accordion collapsing or expanding. It would be nice if the Accordion only toggled on the angle up icon that is already provided inside the Accordion title.
I have already tried to use the AccordionItemAllowTitleEvents and I tried to use a Javascript node with e.stopPropagation() to stop the toggling of the accordion. This worked for the toggle but it prevented my actions from working as well.
I hope somebody can help me with this problem.
Kind regards,
Dean
Hello @Dean Stavenuiter
I might be missing something but using the client action AccordionItemAllowTitleEvents in the initialize event of the AccordionItem block does the trick as expected.I just did a quick test based on the image you shared and it worked.
In runtime, when clicking the checkbox we get the right screen action being executed:
When clicking the icon, we also get the right screen action being executed:
Hope it helps.
Cheers,GM
Hi Gonçalo Martins,
Thank you for the provided screenshots!
I needed to update my outsystem UI, since I noticed I did not have the Initialized event.
Everything is working now as expected!
Can you please tell me what you want In your application
Thank you
Hello Dean,
I had a similar issue in the past and decided not to use the accordion control but two containers instead: One for the header area and the second one for the collapsible body part. In my case the sections were built from a data list where I simply added a boolean attribute to control the collapse state of the section. The body part is then shown and hidden by assigning this boolean to the Visible property of the container. If you need an animation you can use the If UI component or come up with your own CSS to show and hide the body part container.
For sure, your problem can also be solved with some JavaScript and manipulation of the existing event handling, but I would not recommend this to avoid future issues with a new version of the OutSystemsUI.
Hope this helps,Sebastian
Hi @Vaishali Thakur
If I use the checkbox it will trigger an action and will toggle the rest of the checkboxes. With the upload icon I toggle an popup. My actions are working correctly but if you click on the checkbox or the icon the title of the accordion is triggered as well and the accordion will expand or collapse. This should not be happening when I click the checkbox or the upload icon. I just want to trigger the expand and collapse when i click on the angle up icon that is already provided in the accordion title.
I hope you understand what i mean..
Hii @Dean Stavenuiter,
you can use this AccordianItemAllowTitleEvents client action to prevent collapse and expanding of accordian item, In this client action you have to pass widget id which is your accordian item Id
you can call this event on ready of block/screen or on ready of your accordian block.
then you can use checkbox inside accordian title without collapse/expand the accordian
thanks,
