An example description of a split panel in a screen XML-descriptor:

<split orientation="horizontal" pos="30" width="100%" height="100%">
    <vbox margin="true" spacing="true">
        <dateField datasource="orderDs" property="date" caption="Date"/>
        <lookupField datasource="orderDs" property="customer" optionsDatasource="customersDs" caption="Customer"/>
    </vbox>
    <vbox margin="true" spacing="true">
        <textField datasource="orderDs" property="amount" caption="Amount"/>
    </vbox>
</split>

split container must contain two nested containers or components. They will be displayed on both sides of the separator.

split attributes:

  • orientation – defines component orientation. horizontal – nested components are placed horizontally, vertical – they are placed vertically.

  • pos – an integer number defining percentage of the first component area compared to the second one. For example, pos="30" means that the areas ration is 30/70. By default the areas are divided 50/50.

  • reversePosition - indicates that the pos attribute specifies a position of the splitter from the opposite side of the component.

  • If the locked attribute is set to true, users are unable to change the separator position.
