public final class VerticalSplitPanel
extends Panel

A panel that arranges two widgets in a single vertical column and allows the user to interactively change the proportion of the height dedicated to each of the two widgets. Widgets contained within a VerticalSplitterPanel will be automatically decorated with scrollbars when necessary.

This widget will only work in quirks mode. If your application is in Standards Mode, use SplitLayoutPanel instead.

How to Override this Method

There are several important things that must take place in the correct order to properly add or insert a Widget to a Panel. Not all of these steps will be relevant to every Panel, but all of the steps must be considered.

1. Validate: Perform any sanity checks to ensure the Panel can accept a new Widget. Examples: checking for a valid index on insertion; checking that the Panel is not full if there is a max capacity.
2. Adjust for Reinsertion: Some Panels need to handle the case where the Widget is already a child of this Panel. Example: when performing a reinsert, the index might need to be adjusted to account for the Widget's removal. See ComplexPanel.adjustIndex(Widget, int).
3. Detach Child: Remove the Widget from its existing parent, if any. Most Panels will simply call Widget.removeFromParent() on the Widget.
4. Logical Attach: Any state variables of the Panel should be updated to reflect the addition of the new Widget. Example: the Widget is added to the Panel's WidgetCollection at the appropriate index.
5. Physical Attach: The Widget's Element must be physically attached to the Panel's Element, either directly or indirectly.
6. Adopt: Call Panel.adopt(Widget) to finalize the add as the very last step.

Specified by:

add in interface HasWidgets

Overrides:

add in class Panel

Parameters:

w - the widget to be added

public void onBrowserEvent(Event event)

Description copied from interface: EventListener

Fired whenever a browser event is received.

Specified by:

onBrowserEvent in interface EventListener

Overrides:

onBrowserEvent in class Widget

Parameters:

event - the event received

remove

public boolean remove(Widget widget)

Description copied from class: Panel

Removes a child widget.

How to Override this Method

There are several important things that must take place in the correct order to properly remove a Widget from a Panel. Not all of these steps will be relevant to every Panel, but all of the steps must be considered.

1. Validate: Make sure this Panel is actually the parent of the child Widget; return false if it is not.
2. Orphan: Call Panel.orphan(Widget) first while the child Widget is still attached.
3. Physical Detach: Adjust the DOM to account for the removal of the child Widget. The Widget's Element must be physically removed from the DOM.
4. Logical Detach: Update the Panel's state variables to reflect the removal of the child Widget. Example: the Widget is removed from the Panel's WidgetCollection.

Specified by:

remove in interface HasWidgets

Specified by:

remove in class Panel

Parameters:

widget - the widget to be removed

Returns:

true if the child was present
