Parameters:

Name Type Description Default

value

Any
dynamic

Bound to the selection value.

None

expanded

Union[bool,list[str]]
dynamic

If Boolean and False, only one node can be expanded at one given level. Otherwise this should be set to an array of the node identifiers that need to be expanded.

True

multiple

bool

If True, the user can select multiple items by holding the Ctrl key while clicking on items.

False

select_leafs_only

bool

If True, the user can only select leaf nodes.

False

row_height

str

The height of each row of this tree, in CSS units.

None

label

str

The label associated with the selector when in dropdown mode.

None

mode

str

Define the way the selector is displayed:

  • "radio": as a list of radio buttons
  • "check": as a list of check boxes
  • any other value: a plain list.
None

dropdown

bool

If True, the list of items is shown in a dropdown menu.

You cannot use the filter in that situation.

False

filter

bool

If True, this control is combined with a filter input area.

False

width

Union[str, int]

The width of this selector, in CSS units.

360px

None

lov

dict[str, Any]

The list of values. See the section on List of Values for more details.

None

adapter

Union[str, Callable]

A function or the name of the function that transforms an element of lov into a tuple(id:str, label:Union[str,Icon]).
The default value is a function that returns the string representation of the lov element.

lambda x: str(x)

type

str

This property is required if lov contains a non-specific type of data (e.g., a dictionary).
Then:

  • value must be of that type
  • lov must be an iterable containing elements of this type
  • The function set to adapter will receive an object of this type.

The default value is the type of the first element in lov.

Type name of the first lov element

value_by_id

bool

If False, the selection value (in value) is the selected element in lov. If set to True, then value is set to the id of the selected element in lov.

False

on_change

Union[str, Callable]

A function or the name of a function that is triggered when the value is updated.
This function is invoked with the following parameters:

  • state (State): the state instance.
  • var_name (str): the variable name.
  • value (Any): the new value.
None

propagate

bool

Allows the control's main value to be automatically propagated.
The default value is defined at the application configuration level by the propagate configuration option.
If True, any change to the control's value is immediately reflected in the bound application variable.
