activeIndex

activeIndex: number

Set the index of the currently active menu.

Notes

If the menu cannot be activated, the index will be set to -1.

activeMenu

activeMenu: Menu

Set the currently active menu.

Notes

If the menu does not exist, the menu will be set to null.

Readonly childMenu

childMenu: Menu

The child menu of the menu bar.

Notes

This will be null if the menu bar does not have an open menu.

Readonly contentNode

contentNode: HTMLUListElement

Get the menu bar content node.

Notes

This is the node which holds the menu title nodes.

Modifying this node directly can lead to undefined behavior.

Readonly dataset

dataset: DOMStringMap

The dataset for the widget's DOM node.

Readonly disposed

disposed: ISignal<MainMenu, void>

A signal emitted when the widget is disposed.

hiddenMode

hiddenMode: HiddenMode

Set the method for hiding the widget.

id

id: string

Set the id of the widget's DOM node.

Readonly isAttached

isAttached: boolean

Test whether the widget's node is attached to the DOM.

Readonly isDisposed

isDisposed: boolean

Test whether the widget has been disposed.

Readonly isHidden

isHidden: boolean

Test whether the widget is explicitly hidden.

Readonly isVisible

isVisible: boolean

Test whether the widget is visible.

Notes

A widget is visible when it is attached to the DOM, is not explicitly hidden, and has no explicitly hidden ancestors.

layout

layout: Layout

Set the layout for the widget.

Notes

The layout is single-use only. It cannot be changed after the first assignment.

The layout is disposed automatically when the widget is disposed.

Readonly menus

menus: readonly Menu[]

A read-only array of the menus in the menu bar.

Readonly node

node: HTMLElement

Get the DOM node owned by the widget.

parent

parent: Widget

Set the parent of the widget.

Notes

Children are typically added to a widget by using a layout, which means user code will not normally set the parent widget directly.

The widget will be automatically removed from its old parent.

This is a no-op if there is no effective parent change.

Readonly renderer

renderer: IRenderer

The renderer used by the menu bar.

Readonly title

title: Title<Widget>

The title object for the widget.

Notes

The title object is used by some container widgets when displaying the widget alongside some title, such as a tab panel or side bar.

Since not all widgets will use the title, it is created on demand.

The owner property of the title is set to this widget.
