Spacer
Spacer is used to provide spacing between the AppBar contents which gives additional space to the content layout.
The following example depicts the code to provide spacing between the home and pan buttons in the AppBar:
var defaultAppBarObj = new ej.navigations.AppBar({
colorMode: 'Primary'
});
defaultAppBarObj.appendTo("#defaultAppBar");
var defaultButtonHomeObj = new ej.buttons.Button({ cssClass: 'e-inherit', iconCss: 'e-icons e-home' });
defaultButtonHomeObj.appendTo('#defaultButtonHome');
var defaultButtonCutObj = new ej.buttons.Button({ cssClass: 'e-inherit', iconCss: 'e-icons e-cut' });
defaultButtonCutObj.appendTo('#defaultButtonCut');
var defaultButtonPanObj = new ej.buttons.Button({ cssClass: 'e-inherit', iconCss: 'e-icons e-pan' });
defaultButtonPanObj.appendTo('#defaultButtonPan');<!DOCTYPE html><html lang="en"><head>

Separator shows a vertical line to visually group or separate the AppBar contents.
The following example depicts the code to provide a vertical line between a group of buttons in the AppBar.
var defaultAppBarObj = new ej.navigations.AppBar({
colorMode: 'Primary'
});
defaultAppBarObj.appendTo("#defaultAppBar");
var defaultButtonCutObj = new ej.buttons.Button({ cssClass: 'e-inherit', iconCss: 'e-icons e-cut' });
defaultButtonCutObj.appendTo('#defaultButtonCut');

defaultButtonCopyObj.appendTo('#defaultButtonCopy');

var defaultButtonJustifyObj = new ej.buttons.Button({ cssClass: 'e-inherit', iconCss: 'e-icons e-justify' });
defaultButtonJustifyObj.appendTo('#defaultButtonJustify');<!DOCTYPE html><html lang="en"><head>

AppBar is rendered with a Menu component in its AppBar header area. Menu component’s styles are inherited from the AppBar component using the e-inherit CSS class.
var companyMenuItems = [
{

The AppBar is rendered with a Button and DropDownButton component in its AppBar header area. Button and DropDownButton components’ styles are inherited from the AppBar component using the e-inherit CSS class.

The AppBar is rendered with the SideBar component below the AppBar. Click on the menu icon to expand/collapse the Sidebar. In the following sample, the toggle method has been used to show or hide the Sidebar on the AppBar button click.
var data = [
{
nodeId: '01', nodeText: 'Installation',
},
{
nodeId: '02', nodeText: 'Deployment',
},
{
nodeId: '03', nodeText: 'Quick Start',

nodeChild: [
{ nodeId: '04-01', nodeText: 'Calendar' },
{ nodeId: '04-02', nodeText: 'DatePicker' },
{ nodeId: '04-03', nodeText: 'DateTimePicker' },
{ nodeId: '04-04', nodeText: 'DateRangePicker' },
{ nodeId: '04-05', nodeText: 'TimePicker' },
{ nodeId: '04-06', nodeText: 'SideBar' }
]
}
];
var defaultAppBarObj = new ej.navigations.AppBar({});
defaultAppBarObj.appendTo("#defaultAppBar");
var defaultButtonMenuObj = new ej.buttons.Button({ cssClass: 'e-inherit', iconCss: 'e-icons e-menu' });
defaultButtonMenuObj.appendTo('#defaultButtonMenu');
defaultButtonMenuObj.element.addEventListener("click", toggle);
var sidebarMenu = new ej.navigations.Sidebar({
width: '220px',
target: '.main-content',
mediaQuery: '(min-width: 600px)',
isOpen: true
});
sidebarMenu.appendTo('#sideTree');
var inputObj = new ej.inputs.TextBox({
placeholder: "Search..."
});
inputObj.appendTo("#resSearch");
var mainTreeView = new ej.navigations.TreeView({
cssClass: "main-treeview",
fields: { dataSource: data, id: 'nodeId', text: 'nodeText', child: 'nodeChild', iconCss: "iconCss" },
expandOn: 'Click'
});
mainTreeView.appendTo('#mainTree');
function toggle() {
sidebarMenu.toggle();

This is a graphical aid for visualising and categorising the site, in the style of an expandable and
collapsable treeview component.
It auto-expands to display the node(s), if any, corresponding to the currently viewed title,
highlighting that node(s)
and its ancestors. Load-on-demand when expanding nodes is available where supported (most graphical
browsers),
falling back to a full-page reload. MediaWiki-supported caching, aside from squid, has been considered
so that
unnecessary re-downloads of content are avoided where possible. The complete expanded/collapsed state of
the treeview persists across page views in most situations.
