Variations in Vue Sidebar component

12 Aug 202311 minutes to read

The Sidebar component’s expand behaviour can be modified based on the purpose of use.

Expanding types of sidebar

The Sidebar can be set to initialize based on four different types that are consistent with the main component as explained below. When dataBind is invoked, this applies the pending property changes immediately to the component.

Item	Description
Over	Sidebar floats over the main content area.
Push	Sidebar pushes the main content area to appear side-by-side, and shrinks the main content within the screen width.
Slide	Sidebar translates the x and y positions of main content area based on the Sidebar width. The main content area will not be adjusted within the screen width.
Auto	Sidebar with Over type in mobile resolution, and Push type in other higher resolutions.

Auto is the default expand mode.

In the following sample, the types of Sidebar are demonstrated.
