      How to Override this Method

      There are several important things that must take place in the correct order to properly remove a Widget from a Panel. Not all of these steps will be relevant to every Panel, but all of the steps must be considered.

      1. Validate: Make sure this Panel is actually the parent of the child Widget; return false if it is not.
      2. Orphan: Call Panel.orphan(Widget) first while the child Widget is still attached.
      3. Physical Detach: Adjust the DOM to account for the removal of the child Widget. The Widget's Element must be physically removed from the DOM.
      4. Logical Detach: Update the Panel's state variables to reflect the removal of the child Widget. Example: the Widget is removed from the Panel's WidgetCollection.

      Specified by:
      remove in interface HasWidgets
      Specified by:
      remove in class Panel
      Parameters:
      w - the widget to be removed
      Returns:
      true if the child was present
    • setWidget

      public void setWidget(IsWidget w)
      Description copied from interface: AcceptsOneWidget
      Set the only widget of the receiver, replacing the previous widget if there was one.
      Specified by:
      setWidget in interface AcceptsOneWidget
      Parameters:
      w - the widget, or null to remove the widget
      See Also:
    • setWidget

      public void setWidget(Widget w)
      Sets this panel's widget. Any existing child widget will be removed.
      Specified by:
      setWidget in interface HasOneWidget
      Parameters:
      w - the panel's new widget, or null to clear the panel
    • getContainerElement

      protected Element getContainerElement()
      Override this method to specify that an element other than the root element be the container for the panel's child widget. This can be useful when you want to create a simple panel that decorates its contents. Note that this method continues to return the Element class defined in the User module to maintain backwards compatibility.
      Returns:
      the element to be used as the panel's container
