Custom component inside another custom component

Vaadin 6 / 7 / 8 Framework UI
1

Hi all,

I have developed 2 custom components namely “Report” & “Report section”.

The “Report” should contain a “Report heading” & a “Report section”.
And the “Report section” will contain “section heading, section text, an image, tags & comments”.
Please see the attached images.

Is there a way of embedding the “Report section” (along with all text & the image) into a
panel
on the level of “Report”…??

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Asela.

Hi,

I’m not 100% sure what you try to do. But my guess is that
PopupView
 or
PopupButton
 may help you :slight_smile:

Henri,

Thanks for the reply, but unfortunately it doesn’t help me to solve my problem.

The sequence of my application is as follows & the
point 6
is my question.

  1. User runs the application on tomcat
  2. There’s a link
    Add new report
     & user clicks it
  3. Then the screen in the first image is shown
  4. User enters a
    report title
     & clicks on
    Add new section
     link, which will result the screen shown in the second image
  5. User fills in data & the image & clicks on
    Save this section
     link
  6. System should put those
    section specific
     data into a Panel. [which is residing between the
    Report title
    &
    Add new section
     link & invisible] → Is there a way of accomplishing this…??

Thanks again.

Cheers,
Asela.
