Collapsible Container

Overview

The Collapsible Container is a responsive container, to be used in a Servoy Responsive Form, which behaves as a toggle on small screen sizes. When the size of the screen is smaller than 992px it presents a toggle section on which the user can click to toggle the visibility of its content. On medium and large screens instead it always displays its content and hides its toggle section.

Note: layout containers are not stateful, therefore the Collapsible Container will always return to its design state when the user navigates away from the form or the browser is refreshed.

Getting Started

You can drop Servoy Web Components and nest other 12Grid containers into both toggle and container sections.

The Collapsible Container uses attributes of its inner div containers to achieve the collapsible behavior. To obtain the collapsible behavior the data-target attribute of the collapsible-toggle must target the correspondent collapsible-container via CSS selector.
