\title Adding Bindings Between Properties
|
|
|
|
To dynamically change the behavior of a component, you can create a
|
|
\e binding between the properties of two components. To create a property
|
|
binding, a property is assigned a JavaScript expression that evaluates to
|
|
the desired value. Behind the scenes, the variables in the binding
|
|
expression are monitored. When a change is detected, the binding
|
|
expression is re-evaluated and the new result is applied to the property.
|
|
|
|
At its simplest, a binding may be a reference to another property.
|
|
For example, the height of a component can be bound to the height of its
|
|
parent, so that when the parent height changes, the component height is
|
|
adjusted automatically.
|
|
|
|
For more information about the use of property bindings, see
|
|
\l{Property Binding}.
|
|
|
|
You can create bindings between components in \uicontrol Bindings.

|
|
To bind a property of a component to the property of another component:
|
|
|
|
\list 1
|
|
\li Select \uicontrol View > \uicontrol Views >
|
|
\l {Connection View} > \uicontrol {Bindings}.
|
|
\li Select the \inlineimage plus.png
|
|
(\uicontrol Add) button to add a binding for the currently selected
|
|
component. The component ID is displayed in the \uicontrol Item
|
|
column.
|
|
\li Double-click the value in the \uicontrol Property column to select
|
|
the property to bind to a source property.
|
|
\li Double-click the value in the \uicontrol {Source Item} column to
|
|
select the component whose property you want to use to determine the
|
|
behavior of the target component.
|
|
\li Double-click the value in the \uicontrol {Source Property} column
|
|
to select the property to bind the target property to.
|
|
\endlist
|
|
|
|
Right-click a binding and select \uicontrol {Open Binding Editor} in
|
|
the context menu to specify the binding as a JavaScript expression in
|
|
\uicontrol {Binding Editor}. For more information, see \l{Setting Bindings}.
