Subclasses can set this to change default css class for a group.

Default header layout pattern
• parameter DEFAULTLAYOUT = "none";
Subclasses can set this to change default layout for a group.

Properties

• property centerHeader as %ZEN.Datatype.boolean [ InitialExpression = 0 ];
If set, this boolean flag indicates that the title section of the header should be centered over the dragGroup
• property colSpan as %ZEN.Datatype.integer [ InitialExpression = 1 ];
If used as a child of a snapGroup, this specifies the (initial static) width of the widget in columns
• property header as %ZEN.Datatype.caption [ InitialExpression = "Untitled Group" ];
Title to display in header section for this group.
• property headerLayout as %ZEN.Datatype.string [ InitialExpression = ..#DEFAULTHEADERLAYOUT ];
The header layout pattern determines the order in which control windows are added to the header section of the dragGroup window frame. This is encoded as a five character string consisting of the following tokens
'I' represents the Iconify button
'T' represents the Title section with both application logo and header caption
'F' represents the Full screen button
'C' represents the Close button
'U' represents the User content div (if desired)
This string allows one to restructure the location of the controls with a single call and might be useful if the page designer is trying to match the look and feel of a given operating system. For example, MS-Windows systems follow the pattern of 'TIFC' whereas MacOS adopts the standard of CIFT with the title centered (cf. centerHeader) The Title section represent something of a breakpoint in the header layout. Everything prior to the header floats from the left end of the header; Everything after the header, floats from the right end.
• property homeCol as %ZEN.Datatype.integer [ InitialExpression = 0 ];
If used as a child of a snapGroup, this specifies the (initial static) row hosting the left edge of the widget
• property homeRow as %ZEN.Datatype.integer [ InitialExpression = 0 ];
If used as a child of a snapGroup, this specifies the (initial static) row hosting the top of the widget
• property imageAppLogo as %ZEN.Datatype.uri;
