Determines how the drawers container will set its own size when its dimensions (width and height) aren't set explicitly.

In the following example, the drawers container will be sized to match its content:

    drawers.autoSizeMode = AutoSizeMode.CONTENT;

The default value is feathers.controls.AutoSizeMode.STAGE.

See also

The drawer that appears below the primary content.

In the following example, a List is added as the bottom drawer:

    var list:List = new List();
    // set data provider and other properties here
    drawers.bottomDrawer = list;

The default value is null.

See also

Determines if the bottom drawer is docked in all, some, or no stage orientations. The current stage orientation is determined by calculating the aspect ratio of the stage.

In the following example, the bottom drawer is docked in the landscape stage orientation:

    drawers.bottomDrawerDockMode = Orientation.LANDSCAPE;

The default value is feathers.layout.Orientation.NONE.

See also

When this event is dispatched by the content event dispatcher, the bottom drawer will toggle open and closed.

In the following example, the bottom drawer is toggled when the content dispatches an event of type Event.OPEN:

    drawers.bottomDrawerToggleEventType = Event.OPEN;

The default value is null.

See also

Determines if the drawers are clipped while opening or closing. If the content does not have a background, the drawers should generally be clipped so that the drawer does not show under the content. If the content has a fully opaque background that will conceal the drawers, then clipping may be disabled to potentially improve performance.

In the following example, clipping will be disabled:

    navigator.clipDrawers = false;

The default value is true.

See also

The primary content displayed in the center of the container.

If the primary content is a container where you'd prefer to listen to events from its children, you may need to use properties like contentEventDispatcherField, contentEventDispatcherFunction, and contentEventDispatcherChangeEventType to ensure that open and close events for drawers are correctly mapped to the correct event dispatcher. If the content is dispatching the events, then those properties should be set to null.

In the following example, a StackScreenNavigator is added as the content:

    var navigator:StackScreenNavigator = new StackScreenNavigator();
    // additional code to add the screens can go here
    drawers.content = navigator;

The default value is null.

See also

The event dispatcher that controls opening and closing drawers with events. Often, the event dispatcher is the content itself, but you may specify a contentEventDispatcherField to access a property of the content instead, or you may specify a contentEventDispatcherFunction to run some more complex code to access the event dispatcher.

See also

The event dispatched by the content to indicate that the content event dispatcher has changed. When this event is dispatched by the content, the drawers container will listen for the drawer toggle events from the new dispatcher that discovered using contentEventDispatcherField or contentEventDispatcherFunction.

For StackScreenNavigator and ScreenNavigator components, this value is automatically set to Event.CHANGE.

In the following example, the drawers container will update its content event dispatcher when the content dispatches an event of type Event.CHANGE:

    drawers.contentEventDispatcherChangeEventType = Event.CHANGE;

The default value is null.

See also

A property of the content that references an event dispatcher that dispatches events to toggle drawers open and closed.

For StackScreenNavigator and ScreenNavigator components, this value is automatically set to "activeScreen" to listen for events from the currently active/visible screen.

In the following example, the content event dispatcher field is customized:

    drawers.contentEventDispatcherField = "selectedChild";

The default value is null.

See also

A function that returns an event dispatcher that dispatches events to toggle drawers open and closed.

The function is expected to have the following signature:

function( content:DisplayObject ):EventDispatcher

In the following example, the content event dispatcher function is customized:

    drawers.contentEventDispatcherField = function( content:CustomView ):void
    {
        return content.selectedChild;
    };

The default value is null.

See also

The default IStyleProvider for all Drawers components.

The default value is null.

    {
        // do something
    }

The default value is false.

Constructor.

If the component's dimensions have not been set explicitly, it will measure its content and determine an ideal size for itself. If the explicitWidth or explicitHeight member variables are set, those value will be used without additional measurement. If one is set, but not the other, the dimension with the explicit value will not be measured, but the other non-explicit dimension will still need measurement.

Calls saveMeasurements() to set up the actualWidth and actualHeight member variables used for layout.

Meant for internal use, and subclasses may override this function with a custom implementation.

Uses the content event dispatcher fields and functions to generate a content event dispatcher icon for the content.

1. contentEventDispatcherFunction
2. contentEventDispatcherField
