10.1.0-rc.1

10.1.0

General

• igxCombo
  • Behavioral Change - Change default positioning strategy from ConnectedPositioningStrategy to AutoPositionStrategy. The Auto strategy will initially try to show the element like the Connected strategy does. If the element goes out of the viewport Auto will flip the starting point and the direction, i.e. if the direction is 'bottom', it will switch it to 'top' and so on. If after flipping direction the content goes out of the view, auto strategy will revert to initial start point and direction and will push the content into the view. Note after pushing the content it may hide the combo's input.
  • Make onSearchInput event cancellable. The event args type has been changed to IComboSearchInputEventArgs, which have the following properties: searchText - holds the text typed into the search input, owner - holds a reference to the combo component and cancel - indicates whether the event should be canceled.
• IgxOverlay
  • Added new property closeOnEscape in OverlaySettings that controls whether the overlay should close on escape keypress. By default closeOnEsc is set to false.
  • Behavioral Change - modal overlays shown directly through the Overlay Service no longer close on Escape by default. That behavior can now be specified using the closeOnEscape property.
• igxDialog
  • Added closeOnEscape - with it, the dialog can be allowed or prevented from closing when Esc is pressed.
• IgxNavbar:
  • Breaking Changes - The igx-action-icon has been renamed to igx-navbar-action. It should get renamed in your components via ng update;
• IgxGrid, IgxTreeGrid, IgxHierarchicalGrid
  • Breaking Change - The selectedRows method is now an @Input property. Setting it to an array of Row IDs will update the grid's selection state, any previous selection will be cleared. Setting it to an empty array will clear the selection entirely.
  • Breaking Change - Removed IgxExcelStyleSortingTemplateDirective, IgxExcelStyleHidingTemplateDirective, IgxExcelStyleMovingTemplateDirective, IgxExcelStylePinningTemplateDirective and IgxExcelStyleSelectingTemplateDirective directives for re-templating the Excel style filter menu. Added two new directives for re-templating the column operations and filter operations areas - IgxExcelStyleColumnOperationsTemplateDirective and IgxExcelStyleFilterOperationsTemplateDirective. Exposed all internal components of the Excel style filter menu in order to be used inside the templates.
  • Breaking Change - IgxColumnHiding and IgxColumnPinning components have been deprecated in favor of a component combining the their functionality - IgxColumnActions which is used with either of the new IgxColumnPinning and IgxColumnHiding directives that specify the action to be triggered through the UI.
• igxGrid
  • Behavioral Change - For numeric columns, the onCellEdit arguments' newValue will now contain the numeric value that will be committed instead of the string input.
  • Added onScroll event, which is emitted when the grid is scrolled vertically or horizontally.
  • Each grid now expose a default handling for boolean column types. The column will display check or close icon, instead of true/false by default.
• igxTreeGrid
  • Removed onDataPreLoad event as it is specific for remote virtualization implementation, which is not supported for the igxTreeGrid. A more generic onScroll event is exposed and can be used instead.
• IgxTimePicker
  • Added a disabled style for time parts outside of the minimum and maximum range.
• igxDatePicker
  • Added new property - editorTabIndex, that allows setting tabindex for the default editor.

New Theme

Ignite UI for Angular now has a new theme based on our own design system.
You can use one of the following mixins to include a dark or light indigo theme:
igx-indigo-light-theme and igx-indigo-dark-theme

We also added two new palettes that go with the new theme, $light-indigo-palette and $dark-indigo-palette.

The following example shows how you can use the Indigo theme:

// Light version
.indigo-theme {
    @include igx-indigo-light-theme($light-indigo-palette);
}

// Dark version
.indigo-dark-theme {
    @include igx-indigo-dark-theme($dark-indigo-palette);
}
