18.2.0

18.2.0

General

• IFilteringExpressionsTree, FilteringExpressionsTree
  • Deprecation The find and findIndex methods have been deprecated and will be removed in a future version. A ExpressionsTreeUtil class has been added which provides the same functionality.

New Features

• IgxSimpleCombo
  • Introduced ability for Simple Combo to automatically select and retain valid input on "Tab" press enhancing user experience by streamlining data entry and reducing the need for manual selection improving form navigation.
• IgxGrid, IgxTreeGrid, IgxHierarchicalGrid
  • To streamline the sorting of columns with custom formats, a new FormattedValuesSortingStrategy has been introduced. This strategy simplifies the sorting process by allowing direct sorting based on formatted values, eliminating the need to extend the DefaultSortingStrategy or implement a custom ISortingStrategy. This enhancement improves the ease of handling sorting with custom column formatters.
• IgxCarousel
  • Added support for vertical alignment. Can be configured via the vertical property. Defaults to false.
  • Added support for showing/hiding the indicator controls (dots). Can be configured via the indicators property. Defaults to true.
• ColumnType, IgxColumn
  • The built-in editors for columns of type date, dateTime and time now use a default input format as per the IgxGrid's locale. This is valid both for cell editors and the ones in the filtering UI for all modes - quickFilter, excelStyle and the Advanced filtering.
  • In case the pipeArgs.displayFormat property of a date-time column is set and contains only numeric date-time parts or such that can be handled by the editors, the built-in editors input format is inferred from it.
  • To configure the built-in editors, a new editorOptions property is added that allows to pass optional parameters. Accepts an IColumnEditorOptions object with the dateTimeFormat property, that is used as input format for the editors of
    date, dateTime and time column data types:

        const editorOptions: IColumnEditorOptions = { Field?
            dateTimeFormat: 'MM/dd/YYYY',
        }

        <igx-column field="sampleDate" dataType="date" [editorOptions]="editorOptions"></igx-column>

• FieldType (IgxQueryBuilder)
  • Similar to the above, the fields now accept an editorOptions object of type IFieldEditorOptions. Its dateTimeFormat property is used as input format for the query editors of date-time fields.
• IgxDateTimeEditor, IgxDatePicker, IgxTimePicker, IgxDateRangePicker
  • In case the inputFormat property is not set, the input format is inferred from
    displayFormat if set and if it contains only numeric date-time parts.
• IgxTimePicker
  • The input and display formats are now adjusted based on the locale. For instance, day period time part (AM/PM or a/p) would not be displayed for locales that do not require it.
• IgxDateTimeEditor
  • Added a new defaultFormatType property (date | time | dateTime) which configures the date-time parts
    according to the target type that the editor mask includes. Defaults to date.
• IgxTabs
  • Added activation property to control tab selection. In auto mode (default), tabs are selected instantly with Arrow or Home/End keys. In manual mode, tabs are focused with keys but only selected with Enter or Space.
• IgxGridState
  • When possible the state directive nows reuses the column that already exists on the grid when restoring the state, instead of creating new column instances every time. This removes the need to set any complex objects manually back on the column on columnInit. The only instance where this is still necessary is when the column (or its children in case of column groups) have no field property so there's no way to uniquely identify the matching column.
  • Added support for persisting Multi-Row Layout.

Themes

• Breaking Change Palettes

  • All palette colors have been migrated to the CSS relative colors syntax. This means that color consumed as CSS variables no longer need to be wrapped in an hsl function.

  Example:

  /* 18.1.x and before: */
  background: hsl(var(--ig-primary-600));
  
  /* 18.2.0+: */
  background: var(--ig-primary-600);

  This change also opens up the door for declaring the base (500) variants of each color in CSS from any color, including other CSS variables, whereas before the Sass palette function was needed to generate color shades from a base color.

  Example:

  /* 18.1.x and before: */
  $my-palette: palette($primary: #09f, ...);
  
  /* 18.2.0+: */
  --ig-primary-500: #09f;

  This change adds to our continuous effort to make theming configurable in CSS as much as it is in Sass.

Scrollbar: New CSS variables

We have introduced new CSS variables to allow for more customizable scrollbars. This enhancement utilizes the available WebKit pseudo-selectors such as ::-webkit-scrollbar-track. However, please note that these pseudo-selectors are prefixed with -webkit- and are only supported in WebKit-based browsers (e.g., Chrome, Safari).

List of Available CSS Variables for -webkit- browsers:

• --sb-size: Adjusts the scrollbar size (width and height).
• --sb-track-bg-color: Sets the background color of the scrollbar track.
• --sb-track-bg-color-hover: Sets the background color of the scrollbar track on hover.
• --sb-thumb-min-height: Sets the minimum height of the scrollbar thumb.
• --sb-thumb-border-radius: Sets the border radius of the scrollbar thumb.
• --sb-thumb-border-size: Sets the border size of the scrollbar thumb.
• --sb-thumb-border-color: Sets the border color of the scrollbar thumb.
• --sb-thumb-bg-color: Sets the background color of the scrollbar thumb.
• --sb-thumb-bg-color-hover: Sets the background color of the scrollbar thumb on hover.

For Firefox users, we provide limited scrollbar styling options through the following CSS variables:

• --sb-size: Adjusts the scrollbar size.
• --sb-thumb-bg-color: Sets the background color of the scrollbar thumb.
• --sb-track-bg-color: Sets the background color of the scrollbar track.

General

• IgxGrid, IgxTreeGrid, IgxHierarchicalGrid, IgxPivotGrid

  • Deprecation The shouldGenerate property has been deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Column re-creation now relies on autoGenerate instead. Automatic migration to this is available and will be applied on ng update. Note that if autoGenerate is already set initially, there is no need to explicitly set it elsewhere in your code.

• IgxCarousel

  • animationType input property is now of type CarouselAnimationType. HorizontalAnimationType can also be used, however, to accommodate the new vertical mode, which supports vertical slide animations, it is recommended to use CarouselAnimationType.

  • Behavioral Changes - the keyboardSupport input property now defaults to false.

  • Deprecation - the keyboardSupport input property has been deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Keyboard navigation with ArrowLeft, ArrowRight, Home, and End keys will be supported when focusing the indicators' container via Tab/Shift+Tab.

• IgxCombo:

  • Breaking Change The deprecated filterable property is replaced with disableFiltering.
  • The dropdown search field placeholder is now part of the Combo's localization resources. It now also uses two resource values depending on whether filtering is active, e.g. in the default en locale it remains 'Enter a Search Term', but changes to 'Add Item' when disableFiltering and allowCustomValues are set to true. For that reason, the existing searchPlaceholder input is also deprecated in favor of the resources.
  • Deprecation - filterable from the filteringOptions has been deprecated in favor of disableFiltering.

• IgxBadge

  • Breaking Change The $border-width property has been removed from the badge theme.
  • New outlined variant of the badge component has been added. Users can switch to outlined by adding the newly created outlined property to a badge.
