VBox style attributes

VBox presentation style attributes apply to an VBox element.

Note:

This topic lists presentation style attributes for a specific class of form element, common presentation style attributes can also be used for this type of element.

navigationArrows

When the VBox is defined with ORIENTATION@screen-size=HORIZONTAL and with the SPLIT attribute, the navigationArrows style attribute controls left and right naviation arrows for the view, to let the end user navigate between child containers of the box.

Values can be "yes", "no" (default).

navigationDots

When the VBox is defined with ORIENTATION@screen-size=HORIZONTAL and with the SPLIT attribute, the navigationDots style attribute controls the navigation dots created for the view, to let the end user navigate between child containers of the box.

Values can be "yes" (default), "no".

packed

Allows to pack the elements of a VBOX or HBOX, when there is no stretchable child element such as a TABLE.

Values can be "yes", "no" (default).

When set to "yes", for a vertical box, elements are packed to the top. For an horizontal box, elements are packed to the left.

By default, or when this attribute is set to "no", space is inserted between any two elements, if none of the elements can stretch in the alignment direction of the box.

If the HBOX or VBOX is defined with a SPLITTER attribute, the packed style attribute is ignored once the user set manually the splitter positions.
