        Specified by:
        getComponentIsHidden in class VSComponent

      • getComponentIsDisabled

        public java.lang.String getComponentIsDisabled()
        Gets the focus message for "Component is hidden" but for the component in question.
        Specified by:
        getComponentIsDisabled in class VSComponent

      • shouldIgnoreFocusFromUI

        public boolean shouldIgnoreFocusFromUI()
        Checks if this component should ignore focus requests from the UI. This component is still focusable programmatically, but not from the UI.
        Specified by:
        shouldIgnoreFocusFromUI in interface IVSComponent
        Returns:
        true to ignore focus from UI, false for default processing.

      • getActors

        public FieldActors getActors()
        Gets the field actors container.
        Returns:
        The field actors for this field if the field is located in the VirtualSpace or in a VirtualSpace group, otherwise the table column field actors if inside a table.

      • createFieldActors

        protected FieldActors createFieldActors()
        Creates a new instance of the field actors, overridden for the Editor.

      • addPredefinedProps

        protected void addPredefinedProps()
                           throws PropException
        Adds the predefined properties for this container. This method is called once just after construction of the property container and sometimes population of it.

        The method should add properties to create or get reference to using the maybeAddProp method. When the PropCnr instance is cloned, the method getPredefinedProps() is called in order for the subclass to be able to retrieve the new instances to these properties, if stored in instance variables.

        Overrides:
        addPredefinedProps in class PropCnr
        Throws:
        PropException - for property exceptions.

      • getPredefinedProps

        protected void getPredefinedProps()
        Gets potential references to predefined properties for this container. This method is called once just after cloning of the property container.

        The method should get reference to using the getProp(...) methods. This allows the subclass to be able to retrieve the new instances to the properties created during addPredefinedProps() if stored in instance variables.

        Overrides:
        getPredefinedProps in class PropCnr

        onParentStateChanged in interface IVSComponentListener
        Parameters:
        parent - The parent who's state was changed.
