I'm using Vaadin Deisgner 14.6.1 to create some super simple tabs. However, when I try to do some simple operations in the java class (eg selecting a tab), it throws an error which indicates that the "Tabs" object does not have the proper children "tab" components. Here's a simple test case below. (I discovered the issue when I was trying to add a addSelectedChangeListener()
to the tabs class and discovered that it would never fire, presumably since the "tabs" class never properly had any children.) I tried a bunch of hacks, but nothing worked. (I have in the past gotten tabs to work if I stuck purely to a programmatic approach, but I really really really like using Designer, since it saves me tonnes of times and keeps the code quite modular and clean....when it works....)
import {html, PolymerElement} from '@polymer/polymer/polymer-element.js';
import '@vaadin/vaadin-ordered-layout/src/vaadin-vertical-layout.js';
import '@vaadin/vaadin-tabs/src/vaadin-tabs.js';
import '@vaadin/vaadin-tabs/src/vaadin-tab.js';
class MyTabtest extends PolymerElement {
static get template() {
return html`
<style include="shared-styles">
:host {
display: block;
height: 100%;
}
</style>
<vaadin-vertical-layout theme="spacing" style="width: 100%; height: 100%;">
<vaadin-tabs theme="equal-width-tabs" id="tabs" orientation="horizontal" selected="0">
<vaadin-tab id="tab1" selected>
Tab one
</vaadin-tab>
<vaadin-tab id="tab2">
Tab two with a longer title
</vaadin-tab>
<vaadin-tab id="tab3">
Tab three
</vaadin-tab>
</vaadin-tabs>
<label id="lbl1">page1</label>
<label id="lbl2">page2</label>
<label id="lbl3">page3</label>
</vaadin-vertical-layout>

}
static get is() {
return 'my-tabtest';
}
static get properties() {
return {
// Declare your properties here.
};
}
}

*/
public MyTabtest() {
// tabs.setSelectedTab(tab2); //throws error!
tabs.addSelectedChangeListener(e -> {
System.out.println("A tab got selected!"); //this never fires!!!!
});
}
/**
* This model binds properties between MyTabtest and my-tabtest
*/
public interface MyTabtestModel extends TemplateModel {
// Add setters and getters for template properties here.
}
}
Ultimately, I'm trying to capture a tab select event -- but it doens't seem to work when the tabs are created in Designer....is this true on Vaadin's side too? (ie is this reproducible?)
