10 May 202318 minutes to read

Icons

The Popup action item have an icon or image to provide visual representation of the action. To place the icon on a popup item, set the iconCss property to e-icons with the required icon CSS. By default, the icon is positioned to the left side of the popup action item.

In the following sample, the icons for Cut, Copy, and Paste menu items are
added using the iconCss property.

import { SplitButton, ItemModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-splitbuttons';
import { enableRipple } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';

enableRipple(true);

let items: ItemModel[] = [
    {
        text: 'Cut',
        iconCss: 'e-sb-icons e-cut'
    },
    {
        text: 'Copy',
        iconCss: 'e-icons e-copy'
    },
    {
        text: 'Paste',
        iconCss: 'e-sb-icons e-paste'
    }];

//To position the icons in SplitButton.
let splitBtn: SplitButton = new SplitButton({ iconCss: 'e-sb-icons e-paste', items: items }, '#iconbutton');

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.

In the following example, the icons in each [li] items is right aligned by appending span element while [li] rendering:

import { SplitButton, ItemModel, SplitButtonModel,MenuEventArgs } from '@syncfusion/ej2-splitbuttons';
import { enableRipple, createElement } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';

enableRipple(true);

let items: ItemModel[] =  [
    {
       text: 'Cut',
     },
     {
       text: 'Copy',
     },
     {
       text: 'Paste',
      }
   ];

let menuOptions: SplitButtonModel = {
        items: items,
        iconCss: 'e-sb-icons e-paste',
        beforeItemRender: (args: MenuEventArgs) => {
          let shortCutSpan: HTMLElement = createElement('span');
            let text: string = args.item.text;
            args.element.appendChild(shortCutSpan);
            shortCutSpan.setAttribute('class','shortcut');
            let clsName: string = (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');
        }
    };

let splitBtn: SplitButton = new SplitButton(menuOptions, '#action');

The whole popup can be customized as per the requirement and it can be customized by handling it in target property.

In the following sample, the whole popup item is customized as color palette by giving div as target and it can be achieved using target property.

import { SplitButton, SplitButtonModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-splitbuttons';
import { enableRipple } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';

enableRipple(true);

let menuOptions: SplitButtonModel = {
        target: '#dropdowntarget',

    };

let splitBtn: SplitButton = new SplitButton(menuOptions, '#action');
