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:

<template>
  <div class="control-container">
    <ejs-appbar colorMode="Primary">
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-home"></ejs-button>
      <div class="e-appbar-spacer"></div>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-cut"></ejs-button>
      <div class="e-appbar-spacer"></div>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-pan"></ejs-button>
    </ejs-appbar>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  import Vue from "vue";
  import { AppBarPlugin  } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-navigations";
  import { ButtonPlugin  } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-buttons";

  Vue.use(AppBarPlugin);
  Vue.use(ButtonPlugin);

  export default {
    data: function () {
      return {};
    }
  };
</script>

<style>
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css";
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/material.css";
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-navigations/styles/material.css";
</style>

Separator

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.

<template>
  <div class="control-container">
    <ejs-appbar colorMode="Primary">
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-cut"></ejs-button>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-copy"></ejs-button>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-paste"></ejs-button>
      <div class="e-appbar-separator"></div>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-bold"></ejs-button>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-underline"></ejs-button>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-italic"></ejs-button>
      <div class="e-appbar-separator"></div>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-align-left"></ejs-button>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-align-right"></ejs-button>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-align-center"></ejs-button>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-justify"></ejs-button>
    </ejs-appbar>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  import Vue from "vue";
  import { AppBarPlugin  } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-navigations";
  import { ButtonPlugin  } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-buttons";

  Vue.use(AppBarPlugin);
  Vue.use(ButtonPlugin);

  export default {
    data: function () {
      return {};
    }
  };
</script>

<style>
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css";
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/material.css";
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-navigations/styles/material.css";

  .control-container .e-btn.e-inherit {
    margin: 0 3px;
  }
</style>

Media Query

Media Query is used to adjusting the AppBar for different screen sizes. Resize the screen to observe the responsive layout of the AppBar.

<template>
  <div class="control-container">
    <ejs-appbar colorMode="Primary">
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-menu"></ejs-button>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit">Home</ejs-button>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit">About</ejs-button>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit">Products</ejs-button>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit">Contacts</ejs-button>
      <div class="e-appbar-spacer"></div>
      <div class="e-appbar-separator"></div>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit">Login</ejs-button>
    </ejs-appbar>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  import Vue from "vue";
  import { AppBarPlugin  } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-navigations";
  import { ButtonPlugin  } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-buttons";

  Vue.use(AppBarPlugin);
  Vue.use(ButtonPlugin);

  export default {
    data: function () {
      return {};
    }
  };
</script>

<style>
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css";
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/material.css";
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-navigations/styles/material.css";

  .control-container .e-btn.e-inherit {
    margin: 0 3px;
  }

  @media screen and (max-width: 1024px) {
    .control-container .e-appbar {
      flex-flow: row wrap;
      height: auto;
      gap: 8px;
    }

    .control-container {
      width: 350px;
    }
  }

  @media screen and (max-width: 480px) {
    .control-container {
      width: 200px;
      margin: 0 2px;
    }
  }
</style>

Designing AppBar with Menu

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.

<template>
  <div class="control-container">
    <ejs-appbar colorMode="Primary">
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-menu"></ejs-button>
      <ejs-menu cssClass="e-inherit" :items="companyMenuItems"></ejs-menu>
      <ejs-menu cssClass="e-inherit" :items="productMenuItems"></ejs-menu>
      <ejs-menu cssClass="e-inherit" :items="aboutMenuItems"></ejs-menu>
      <ejs-menu cssClass="e-inherit" :items="carrerMenuItems"></ejs-menu>
      <div class="e-appbar-spacer"></div>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit">Login</ejs-button>
    </ejs-appbar>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  import Vue from "vue";
  import { AppBarPlugin, MenuPlugin } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-navigations";
  import { ButtonPlugin } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-buttons";

  Vue.use(AppBarPlugin);
  Vue.use(MenuPlugin);
  Vue.use(ButtonPlugin);

  export default {
    data: function () {
      return {
        companyMenuItems: [
          {
            text : 'Company',
            items: [
              { text: 'About Us' },
              { text: 'Customers' },
              { text: 'Blog' },
              { text: 'Careers' }
            ]
          }
        ],
        productMenuItems: [
          {
            text : 'Products',
            items: [
              { text: 'Developer' },
              { text: 'Analytics' },
              { text: 'Reporting' },
              { text: 'Help Desk' }
            ]
          }
        ],
        aboutMenuItems: [
          {
            text : 'About Us'
          }
        ],
        carrerMenuItems: [
          {
            text : 'Carrers'
          }
        ]
      };
    }
  };
</script>

<style>
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css";
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/material.css";
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-navigations/styles/material.css";

  .control-container .e-btn.e-inherit {
    margin: 0 3px;
  }
</style>

Designing AppBar with Buttons

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.

<template>
  <div class="control-container">
    <ejs-appbar colorMode="Primary">
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-menu"></ejs-button>
      <ejs-dropdownbutton cssClass="e-inherit" :items="productDropDownButtonItems">Products</ejs-dropdownbutton>
      <div class="e-appbar-spacer"></div>
      <ejs-button cssClass="e-inherit">Login</ejs-button>
    </ejs-appbar>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  import Vue from "vue";
  import { AppBarPlugin } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-navigations";
  import { DropDownButtonPlugin } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-splitbuttons";
  import { ButtonPlugin } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-buttons";

  Vue.use(AppBarPlugin);
  Vue.use(DropDownButtonPlugin);
  Vue.use(ButtonPlugin);

  export default {
    data: function () {
      return {
        productDropDownButtonItems: [
          { text: 'Developer' },
          { text: 'Analytics' },
          { text: 'Reporting' },
          { text: 'E-Signature' },
          { text: 'Help Desk' }
        ]
      };
    }
  };
</script>

<style>
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css";
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/material.css";
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-navigations/styles/material.css";
  @import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-splitbuttons/styles/material.css";

  .control-container .e-btn.e-inherit {
    margin: 0 3px;
  }
</style>

Designing AppBar with SideBar

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.

<template>
  <div id="wrapper" class="control-section">
    <div id="reswrapper">
        <div>
          <ejs-appbar>
            <ejs-button id="button" cssClass="e-inherit" iconCss="e-icons e-menu"></ejs-button>
            <div class="e-folder">
              <div class="e-folder-name">Navigation Pane</div>
            </div>
          </ejs-appbar>
        </div>
        <ejs-sidebar id="sideTree" class="sidebar-treeview" ref="sidebarTreeviewInstance" width="220px" target=".main-sidebar-content" mediaQuery="(min-width: 600px)" :isOpen="true">
            <div class='main-menu'>
                <div class="table-content">
                    <ejs-textbox id="resSearch" placeholder="Search..."></ejs-textbox>
                    <p class="main-menu-header">TABLE OF CONTENTS</p>
                </div>
                <div>
                    <ejs-treeview id='mainTree' cssClass="main-treeview" :fields="fields" expandOn='Click'>
                    </ejs-treeview>
                </div>
            </div>
        </ejs-sidebar>
        <div class="main-sidebar-content" id="main-text">
            <div class="sidebar-content">
                <div class="sidebar-heading"> Responsive Sidebar with Treeview</div>
                <p class="paragraph-content">
                    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.
