Fancy Tree as internal component

j_schuster Public · Sep 1 2021

Since you have Ronny now it would be great to have a full functional tree component in the core. Ronny's Plug-in works perfectly I use it in a project and we optimised it.

We reviewed this idea carefully, and while it was interesting, we concluded that it is unlikely to make its way into APEX in the foreseeable future.

    could not agree more. Yes, please implement this as an "internal" component.

    I can't see swapping out the APEX treeView widget for a 3rd party library but a “full functional tree component” makes perfect sense and also something I always wanted.

    What has prevented you from doing so far? Hey, just kidding :-)
    Honestly, a “full featured” tree component is really needed. I'm sure, Ronny has some ideas too…

    Just came across this idea and I wonder why a tree has to be a region. If this would be a page item, it would feel more naturaly to return a value from it, set a selection and so forth. This comes in handy especially in combination with a full three state checkbox as this then would be a simple multi select list, comparable to the shuttle control, but hierarchical.

    Check Ronny's Plug-in it does all what you want and much more, it's fine to be a region. But Patrick rejected it already because of legacy jQuery. So go with Ronny's Plug-in because I don't see a fully functional APEX tree for the next 5 years 😉

    To be clear it is jQuery UI that is deprecated. jQuery is not legacy.

    A tree page item is a fine idea but it is a different idea from this tree region idea.

    John it's Sunday we need you fully charged tomorrow 😊

    Yes, it is a different idea (and I created such a item plugin already) but it uses the same apexTree component underneath and it just feels so much more common in contrast to a region that has got a value.
