Is there any way to handle a situation where there are more tabs than the availe width can show?
I have a scenario where items selected from navigation are dynamicaly open in new tabs (or the active tab changes if it was already open). So happens that there's a big chance of more tabs than the width can show will be open at a given time.
I can't seem to find anything on the documentation that allows me to handle this situation.
I was looking for at least the possibility to use an appendTo
or something o the likes where I could separate the container for the tabs headers and tabs contents so that i can do something like buttons to scroll the headers alone left or right.
this is great when there are few tabs:
but if more of them are open the nav breaks and the container gets an horizontal scroller, as there's no more space available:
my objective is to have something like this (with arrow buttons to navigate to hidden tabs):
Edit Ok so I found this javascript kendo scrollable tabs. It's exactly what I had in mind, but I cant achieve this with angular kendo-ui
well there is no horizontal scroller out of the box, but the collection of tabs can be a variable. So in this case you can implement some simple paging. something like
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'app-list',
templateUrl: './list.component.html'
})
export class ListComponent {
public allTabs = [
{ name: '1111', content: ' content 1 '},
{ name: '2222', content: ' content 2 '}
{ name: '3333', content: ' content 3 '}
{ name: '4444', content: ' content 4 '}
{ name: '5555', content: ' content 5 '}
];
public totalPages = 0;
public currentTabs = this.allTabs.slice(0, 2);
public pageSize: number = 2;
public currentPage = 1;
public nextPage() {
this.currentPage++;
this.currentTabs = this.allTabs.slice((this.currentPage - 1) * this.pageSize, (this.currentPage) * this.pageSize);
}
public prevPage() {
this.currentPage--;
this.currentTabs = this.allTabs.slice((this.currentPage - 1) * this.pageSize, (this.currentPage) * this.pageSize);
}
constructor (){
this.totalPages = Math.round(this.allTabs.length / this.pageSize);
}
}
and the template
<kendo-tabstrip [ngStyle]="{'width': '400px'}">
<kendo-tabstrip-tab
*ngFor="let item of currentTabs; let i=index"
[title]="item.name"
[selected]="i === 0"
>
<ng-template kendoTabContent>
{{ item.content }}
</ng-template>
</kendo-tabstrip-tab>
</kendo-tabstrip>
<button type="button" (click)="prevPage()" [disabled]="currentPage === 1">Prev</button>
<button type="button" (click)="nextPage()" [disabled]="currentPage === totalPages">Next</button>
kinda fake scroll :)
