Adding tabs and buttons

You can use methods from the Dojo class ExtensionMixin to add tabs or buttons in a branch, release, or activity. You can also add buttons in a view, for example for rules, decision tables, decision operations, or deployment configurations.

Adding a tab

Reference

ExtensionMixin.addTab: function(
    /* String*/ id, /* Object */ props, /* Function */ callback, /* String */ pos)

Parameters

id: The ID of the tab.
props: The properties for the tab, as defined for a dijit/layout/ContentPane object.
callback: The function that is invoked when the tab is selected.
pos: The position of the tab, which can be either first, last, or a number. The default parameter is last.

Example

To add a new tab in a branch, you must override the following method.

/* override */ inBranchView: function(data) {
    this.addTab('MyTab', { title: 'My Tab' }, callback);
}

Adding a button

Reference

ExtensionMixin.addToolbarButton: function(
    /* String*/ id, /* String */ label, /* Function */ callback, /* String */ pos)

Parameters

id: The ID of the button.
label: The label to use for the button.
callback: The function that is invoked when the button is selected.
pos: The position of the button, which can be either first, last, or a number. The default parameter is first.

Examples

To add a button in the toolbar in a branch, you must override the following method.

/* override */ inBranchView: function(data) {
    this.addToolbarButton('MyButton', 'My Button', callback);
}

To add a button in the toolbar in a rule, or a decision table, you must override the following method.

    this.addToolbarButton('MyEditorButton', 'My Button', callback)
}
