<view>
The most basic viewable element.

JavaScript: LzView
extends <node> » LzEventable »

The <view> is the most basic viewable element in an OpenLaszlo application. Anything that is displayed on the canvas is a view or extends the view class. A view is a rectangle, which can be visible or invisible, and which can contain other views or display "resources" such as images, .swf files, or other supported media. One view controls one displayable resource. The view system is strictly hierarchical; that is, each view has a single parent but can have multiple children.

The following code shows one view nested inside another: 

<canvas height="50" width="500">
   <view width="50" height="50" bgcolor="red">
     <view width="30" height="30" bgcolor="blue"/>
   </view> 
 </canvas>
edit

LzView extends <node>, which is the fundamental abstract class of LZX.

For an introduction to views see the Laszlo tutorials, particularly OpenLaszlo Basics and Introduction to Views. For a more rigorous explanation of views see the Application Developer's Guide, particularly the Views chapter.

Attributes

Name Type (tag) Type (js) Default Category
aaactive boolean Boolean   read/write
  Activate/inactivate children for accessibility
aadescription string String   read/write
  Set accessibility description
aaname string String   read/write
  Set accessibility name
aasilent boolean Boolean   read/write
  Set accessibility silencing/unsilencing
aatabindex number Number   read/write
  Set accessibility tab order
align "left" | "center" | "right" | constraint String "left" initialize-only
   
bgcolor color color   read/write
  The color of background of this view. Null if there is no bgcolor. A number from 0 - 0xFFFFFF.
cachebitmap boolean Boolean false read/write
  A value of true means that this view's bitmap will be cached, if available.
clickable boolean Boolean   read/write
  If true, this view intercepts click events; otherwise they are passed to its container. This defaults to true if the view defines a mouse event handler or a cursor.
clickregion string String   read/write
  Setting to a vector-based resource changes the clickable hotspot for the mouse. Check capabilities.clickregion before using to avoid debugger warnings.
clip boolean Boolean false initialize-only
  Clip the view's contents to its size.
cursor token String   read/write
  The cursor to display when the mouse is over this view. Any resource can be used as a cursor. This attribute can be set for any view with clickable=true, or any view whose class defaults clickable to true.
fgcolor color color   read/write
  A color to use to render object that appears inside this view, which includes any vector or bitmap art in the view's resource and any contained views.
focusable boolean Boolean   readonly
  If true, this view will receive focus events. See focus manager (LzFocus) for more details.
focustrap boolean Boolean   read/write
  If true, this view "traps" the focus, for example in a window or dialog. See focus manager (LzFocus) for more details.
font string String   read/write
  The font to use for any <text> or <inputtext> elements that appear inside this view. Like all the font properties (fontstyle and fontsize too) these properties cascade down the view hierarchy until a new value is specified. When the font attributes are modified at runtime, using JavaScript, the font is changed for the view itself, not for any of its subviews.
fontsize size String   read/write
  Pixel size to use to render text which appears inside this view. The default is 8.
fontstyle string String   read/write
  The style to use to render text fields that appear inside of this view. One of "plain", "bold" , "italic" or "bolditalic".
frame numberExpression Number "1" read/write
  If this view has a multi-frame resource, this allows setting which resource frame is displayed. Defaults to the first frame (1). See also the resource attribute. Setting this attribute will change the frame that is being displayed by the resource associated with this view. The first frame of the resource is frame 1. Setting a view's 'donttrackplay' option to true will allow the view's resource to play without updating the value of the view's frame property. This can save CPU usage in cases where the application doesn't need to know what frame the resource is showing while it is playing.
framesloadratio   Number   readonly
  For views whose resource is loaded at runtime, the ratio of the loaded frames to the total frames. This is a number between zero and 1.
hassetheight   Boolean   readonly
  If true, then setWidth() has been called on this view, and the view will not be sized to its contents.
hassetwidth   Boolean   readonly
  If true, then setHeight() has been called on this view, and the view will not be sized to its contents.
height sizeExpression Number   read/write
  The height of the view
layout css Object   read/write
  A CSS property when declared in the tag: value sequence of layout parameters, which are used to create a layout that is attached to this view. If there is a class property, it names the class of the layout; otherwise <simplelayout> is used. Examples: layout="axis: x", layout="class: constantlayout", layout="axis: y", layout="axis: x; spacing: 5".
loadratio   Number   readonly
  For views whose resource is loaded at runtime, ratio of the loaded bytes to the total bytes. This is a number between zero and 1.
mask   LzView   readonly
  Reference to closest masked view in the hierarchy at or above this one
opacity Number Number "1.0" read/write
  The opacity of the view's contents. 1.0 is opaque; 0.0 is totally transparent (invisible).
pixellock booleanLiteral Boolean   read/write
  The view system supports sub-pixel positioning to enable smooth animation. This may be turned off to make the view snap to a pixel boundary by setting pixellock to true.
playing boolean Boolean   readonly
  If true, this view is currently playing.
proxyurl expression any function read/write
  The url of the proxy server, if the app is running in proxied mode. proxyurl can be null, a URL string, or a function.
  • If the value is a string, treat it as a URL to the proxy server.
  • If the value is a function, it should return the URL of the proxy server.
The default proxy policy references the proxyurl of the canvas.
resource string String   read/write
  A resource that is presented in the background of this view. The value can be either the name of a resource defined with the resource tag, a URL, or a pathname. If the value is a URL, the resource is requested when the view is displayed. If it's a pathname, the file named by the pathname is compiled into the application, and attached to this view.
resourceheight number Number   readonly
  The height of the resource that this view attached
resourcewidth number Number   readonly
  The width of the resource that this view attached
rotation numberExpression Number "0" read/write
  The rotation value for the view (in degrees). Value may be less than zero or greater than 360.
showhandcursor boolean Boolean   read/write
  Show or hide the hand cursor for this view, if clickable
source string String   read/write
  The URL from which to load the resource for this view. If this attribute is set, the media for the view is loaded at runtime.
stretches "width" | "height" | "both" String "none" read/write
  Setting stretches causes a view to change its coordinate space so that everything it contains (resources and other views) fit exactly into the view's width and/or height. The default for this property is "none". This is used to resize a view's contents by setting its width and/or height.
subviews   [LzView]   readonly
  An array of the subviews that are children of this view. This is initialized to an empty array for views that have no subviews.
totalframes   Number   readonly
  The total number of frames for this view's resource.
unstretchedheight   Number   readonly
  If stretches is not set to none, the height that this view would be if it weren't stretched. This attribute can be used to scale a view by a percentage of its original size, or to determine the aspect ratio for a view.
unstretchedwidth   Number   readonly
  If stretches is not set to none, the width that this view would be if it weren't stretched. This attribute can be used to scale a view by a percentage of its original size, or to determine the aspect ratio for a view.
valign "top" | "middle" | "bottom" | constraint String "top" read/write
  Creates a constraint on the view's y position which is a function of its height and its parent's height. The default for this is "top".
visibility string String "collapse" read/write
  A value of "visible" means that this view is shown. A value of "hidden" means that this view is hidden. Setting this attribute to "collapse" means that the runtime will hide this view when: its opacity is zero, it has a datapath that does not match a node, or it is loading its media. In this case, the the value of the 'visible' attribute of the view will reflect the view's current visible state.
visible boolean Boolean "true" read/write
  A value of true means that this view is shown. A value of false means that this view is hidden. Note that an otherwise clickable view that is not visible will have no click region and will not be clickable.
width sizeExpression Number   read/write
  The width of the view
x numberExpression Number "0" read/write
  The horizontal offset of this view's upper left corner from the upper left corner of its container.
xoffset numberExpression Number "0" read/write
  Specifies a translation point for drawing of this view. If the xoffset is set, then rotation and x position will be calculated by first adding the xoffset.
y numberExpression Number "0" read/write
  The vertical offset of this view's upper left corner from the upper left corner of its container
yoffset numberExpression Number "0" read/write
  Specifies a translation point for drawing of this view. If the yoffset is set, then rotation and y position will be calculated by first adding the yoffset.

Transform the specified attribute (width/height/x/y) from the existing coordinate space to the reference view's coordinate space. This transformation takes into account any nested views between the views and the common ancestor view. This method answers the question: what should this view set its width/height/x/y to in order to appear to have the same value for that attribute as the reference view?

The Laszlo view object uses a relatively simple notion for its coordinate system. Note that this function doesn't necessarily return the true bounding box of the view, but a box surrounding the view, since this method respects a set width and/or height and ignores subviews that appear left or above of the view's 0,0 point. The xoffset and yoffset properties of the bounds object are the distance between the view's x or y property and the top or left of the bounding box.
