Mojo.Controller.SceneController.popupSubmenu()

Popup submenus can be used to provide a text list of choices to the user. It accepts standard menu models with a few additional optional properties.

Example usage:

    sceneController.popupSubmenu(this.controller, {
onChoose:this.popupChoose,
placeNear:clickEvent.target,
items: [{label: $L('Apply'), command: 'apply-cmd'},
{label: $L('Applique'), command: 'applique-cmd'},
{label: $L('Applaud'), command: 'applaud-cmd'},
{label: $L('Approximate'), command: 'approx-cmd'}]
});

The above code will cause a modal list to appear with the label choices presented. When the user taps one, the onChoose function will be called in the scope of the scene assistant with the command property of the chosen item. If the user taps outside the popup menu, the menu is dismissed and the onChoose function is called with undefined.

Beyond the standard menu model properties, the submenu supports some additional model properties:

Property Type Description
onChoose Function Called when the user makes a choice from the menu
placeNear Element Used to position the submenu near a specified element (optional)
toggleCmd   Causes appropriate item to appear with a checkmark.  Supported in top-level popup model. (optional)
popupClass String CSS class for popup menu (optional)
scrimClass String CSS class for popup scrim.  Defaults to submenu-popup. (optional)
manualPlacement Boolean True to prevent popup from being placed automatically (centered or near specified placeNear element)

Beyond the standard menu item properties, the submenu supports some additional menu item properties:

Argument Type Description
secondaryIcon String CSS class for a secondary icon to be displayed.  Usually used for displaying status.  Appears to the left of the menu item. (optional)
secondaryIconPath String Like iconPath, but for secondaryIcon (optional)
chosen Boolean Causes item to be styled as selected item in a toggle group (optional)

Keyboard shortcuts can be displayed in the submenu, but are implemented by the main menu system.
