allowContentAdd

property
allowContentAdd:Boolean

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Adobe Digital Enterprise Platform Experience Services - Composite Application Framework 10
Runtime Versions: AIR 2.6, Flash Player 10.2

Returns the allowContentAdd value



Implementation
    public function get allowContentAdd():Boolean
    public function set allowContentAdd(value:Boolean):void

layout

property 
layout:ILayout  [read-only]

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Adobe Digital Enterprise Platform Experience Services - Composite Application Framework 10
Runtime Versions: AIR 2.6, Flash Player 10.2

The layout of the viewManager.



Implementation
    public function get layout():ILayout

saveMode

property 
saveMode:String

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Adobe Digital Enterprise Platform Experience Services - Composite Application Framework 10
Runtime Versions: AIR 2.6, Flash Player 10.2

Returns the saveMode that controls the ability to save and close views managed by the ViewManager. The default allows views to be saved and closed ("saveAndClose"). Other options are to save without closing ("saveOnly"), close without saving ("closeOnly"), or to do nothing ("none"). If the saveMode is set to a value not supported by the chosen Layout, then it will be treated as if no saveMode were specified and default to "saveAndClose".



Implementation
    public function get saveMode():String
    public function set saveMode(value:String):void

views

property 
views:Array  [read-only]

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Adobe Digital Enterprise Platform Experience Services - Composite Application Framework 10
Runtime Versions: AIR 2.6, Flash Player 10.2

Returns an array of views that are available within the application.



Implementation
    public function get views():Array
Method Detail

addView

()method
public function addView(view:IView, onSuccess:Function = null, onFailure:Function = null):void

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: Adobe Digital Enterprise Platform Experience Services - Composite Application Framework 10
Runtime Versions: AIR 2.6, Flash Player 10.2

Adds a view to the ViewManager. The resulting AddViewEvent indicating success or failure is returned in the callback function and also dispatched to the MessageListeners.

Parameters

view:IView — The view to add.
 
onSuccess:Function (default = null) — a Function callback that takes in one parameter of type AddViewEvent when the operation succeeded
 
onFailure:Function (default = null) — a Function callback that takes in one parameter of type AddViewEvent when the operation failed

Example
How to use this example
This example retrieves a view named "sampleView" from a catalog and adds the view to the viewManager:
		 mosaicApp.addMessageListener(AddViewEvent.NAMESPACE, AddViewEvent.SUCCESS, onAddViewEvent);
		 mosaicApp.addMessageListener(AddViewEvent.NAMESPACE, AddViewEvent.FAILURE, onAddViewEvent);
		 
		 var v:IView = sampleCatalog.getView("sampleView");
		 (thisTile.parentView.parentNode as IViewManager).addView(v,onAddViewSuccess,onAddViewFailure);
		 
		 //functions to manage success or failure callbacks
		 private function onAddViewSuccess(evt:AddViewEvent):void {} 
		 private function onAddViewFailure(evt:AddViewEvent):void {}
		 
		 //functions to manage success or failure events
		 private function onAddViewEvent(message:Message):void {
		     var addViewEvent:AddViewEvent = message.payload as AddViewEvent;
		     var addedView:IView = addViewEvent.viewNode;
		     //custom processing
		 }
		 

removeView

()method
