Tab

Tabs are a navigation tool which splits content into pages, allowing users to select which page they want to see. This can be useful, both to contain completely different parts of the UI, or to simply display different versions of a minor UI element.

Basic Usage

<triton-tab>
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Tab 1"> The content of tab 1 </triton-tab-item>
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Tab 2" active> The content of tab 2 </triton-tab-item>
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Tab 3" disabled> The content of tab 3 </triton-tab-item>
</triton-tab>
<TritonTab>
<TritonTabItem tab-title="Tab 1"> The content of tab 1 </TritonTabItem>
<TritonTabItem tab-title="Tab 2" active> The content of tab 2 </TritonTabItem>
<TritonTabItem tab-title="Tab 3" disabled> The content of tab 3 </TritonTabItem>
</TritonTab>
<html> 
<head>
<script type="module">
import { defineCustomElements } from '~node_modules/@kognifai/triton-cl-core/loader/index.es2017.js';
defineCustomElements();
</script>

<body>
<TritonTab>
<TritonTabItem tab-title="Tab 1"> The content of tab 1 </TritonTabItem>
<TritonTabItem tab-title="Tab 2" active> The content of tab 2 </TritonTabItem>
<TritonTabItem tab-title="Tab 3" disabled> The content of tab 3 </TritonTabItem>
</TritonTab>
</body>
</html>
The content of tab 1 The content of tab 2 The content of tab 3

Variants

The default tab is horizontal, as seen in the basic example.

Vertical Tabs

Tabs can also be set up to fall vertically, as opposed to their default horizontal orientation. To achieve this, set the orientation property to vertical.

The content of tab 1The content of tab 2The content of tab 3
<triton-tab orientation="vertical">
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Tab 1">The content of tab 1</triton-tab-item>
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Tab 2">The content of tab 2</triton-tab-item>
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Tab 3">The content of tab 3</triton-tab-item>
</triton-tab>

Behavior

To use the tab component as a menu, pass in the component without any content. The router implementation depends on your framework. For Angular, use the RouterModule and apply routerLinkActive and routerLink on the TritonTabItem element. With routerLinkActive set to active, the component will trigger the correct state on the selected tab item.

The content of tab 1The content of tab 2The content of tab 3The content of tab 4
<triton-tab>
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Orders" icon-leading="broadcast">The content of tab 1</triton-tab-item>
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Details" icon-leading="box" active>The content of tab 2</triton-tab-item>
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Report" icon-leading="chat-buble">The content of tab 3</triton-tab-item>
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Critical" icon-leading="cancel">The content of tab 4</triton-tab-item>
</triton-tab>

Appearance

Fluid Width

By setting the fluid property to true, you can force the TritonTab to fill the full width of its container.

The content of tab 1The content of tab 2The content of tab 3
<triton-tab fluid="true">
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Tab 1">The content of tab 1</triton-tab-item>
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Tab 2">The content of tab 2</triton-tab-item>
<triton-tab-item tab-title="Tab 3">The content of tab 3</triton-tab-item>
</triton-tab>
