rendererThe renderer used by the menu.
A signal emitted just before the menu is closed.
This signal is emitted when the menu receives a 'close-request'
message, just before it removes itself from the DOM.
This signal is not emitted if the menu is already detached from
the DOM when it receives the 'close-request'
message.
Set the index of the currently active menu item.
If the item cannot be activated, the index will be set to -1
.
The menu content node.
This is the node which holds the menu item nodes.
Modifying this node directly can lead to undefined behavior.

Get the method for hiding the widget.
Set the method for hiding the widget.
Get the id of the widget's DOM node.
Set the id of the widget's DOM node.
Test whether the widget's node is attached to the DOM.
Test whether the widget has been disposed.
Test whether the widget is explicitly hidden.
Test whether the widget is visible.
A widget is visible when it is attached to the DOM, is not explicitly hidden, and has no explicitly hidden ancestors.
Get the layout for the widget.
Set the layout for the widget.
The layout is single-use only. It cannot be changed after the first assignment.
The layout is disposed automatically when the widget is disposed.
A signal emitted when a new menu is requested by the user.
This signal is emitted whenever the user presses the right or left arrow keys, and a submenu cannot be opened or closed in response.
This signal is useful when implementing menu bars in order to open the next or previous menu in response to a user key press.
This signal is only emitted for the root menu in a hierarchy.
Get the parent of the widget.
Set the parent of the widget.
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.
The title object for the widget.
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.
Post an 'activate-request'
message to the widget.
This is a simple convenience method for posting the message.
Activate the next selectable item in the menu.
If no item is selectable, the index will be set to -1
.

options: IOpenOptionsThe additional options for opening the menu.
The menu will be opened at the given location unless it will not fully fit on the screen. If it will not fit, it will be adjusted to fit naturally on the screen.
The menu will be attached under the host
element in the DOM
(or document.body
if host
is null
) and before the ref
element (or as the last child of host
if ref
is null
).
The menu may be displayed outside of the host
element
following the rules of CSS absolute positioning.

Static
saveSave window data used for menu positioning in transient cache.
In order to avoid layout trashing it is recommended to invoke this method immediately prior to opening the menu and any DOM modifications (like closing previously visible menu, or adding a class to menu widget).
The transient cache will be released upon open()
call.
