Template

Item Templating

Popup items can be customized by using the beforeItemRender event. The item render event triggers while rendering each Popup action item. The event argument will be used to identify the action item and customize it based on the requirement.

<ejs-splitbutton id="element" items="ViewBag.items" iconCss="e-sb-icons e-paste" beforeItemRender="beforeItemRender"></ejs-splitbutton>

<scripts>

    function beforeItemRender(args) {
        var shortCutSpan = document.createElement('span');
        var text = args.item.text;
        args.element.appendChild(shortCutSpan);
        shortCutSpan.setAttribute('class','shortcut');
        var clsName = (text == 'Copy') ? 'e-icons' : 'e-sb-icons';
        shortCutSpan.classList.add(clsName);
        (text === 'Cut') ? shortCutSpan.classList.add('e-cut') : (text === 'Paste') ? shortCutSpan.classList.add('e-paste') : shortCutSpan.classList.add('e-copy');
    }
