Scout 22 Contacts App [message #1850811]

Hi,
I like the new look, especially the menu style Outline Buttons in the contacts app. However, I couldn't figure out how to show the icon in the button like it is done in the contacts app.

Contacts app:
index.php/fa/41780/0/

My app:

I looked at the source for the contacts app
https://github.com/bsi-software/org.eclipse.scout.docs/tree/releases/22.0/code/contacts/org.eclipse.scout.contacts.client

but couldn't find anything explaining the icon.

Thanks.
Nils

The icon is only shown if there is an OutlineViewButton with DisplayStyle set to DisplayStyle.TAB, like the SearchOutlineViewButton in the contacts app. Because in that case you need to be able to switch between the outlines which is done by clicking on such an icon. If you always want to show the icon, you could adjust the default behavior by extending ViewButtonBox.js and setting selectedMenuButtonAlwaysVisible = true.

You should be able to use the object factory to extend the ViewButtonBox
