A series of widget types for advanced usage.
Layout
Id: layout
The layout widget type displays a layout. This is useful to build high-level layouts, in combination with the Form Actions widget type for instance.
Set Variable
Id: setVariable
This widget type uses the nxu:set
tag to expose variables in the JSF context, and displays its subwidgets. It can be useful to make a variable available for the subwidgets rendering.
For instance, this is useful when manipulating selection entries, to be able to cache them in the page (and avoid retrieving them for each item rendered in selection options).
Template
Id: template
The template widget type is highly customizable and allows to define a XHTML template to use for rendering the widget depending on its mode. Please refer to the dedicated documentation.
Action
Id: action
This widget type displays an action, with possibility to surround it by a form or not (and additional rendering properties).
The difference with the Form Action or Toolbar Action widget types is that it needs the action to be already resolved. This makes it possible to display actions that would have been retrieved using a custom filtering context.
