icon - font awesome class of an icon (ex: "fas fa-exclamation-triangle")
attributevalues
namethe name of the custom state (eg. 'alert')
optiona key-value object (eg. {bubbleUp: true})


For the moment, only the bubbleUp is available as option. The bubbleUp option will make the custom state visible also on panel header and window header.

(warning) Notes:

  • the panel header and  window header will not have an <i> tag for the icon. Setting an icon on panel/window will be done on the before/after pseudo-class from css.
  • the bubbleUp option is available only starting with SWAT 20.11 release

titleExampleExamples from javascript
// get a field, like the selfdesc field from offerheaderdata form.
var field1 = akioma.root.dynObject.getObject('offerheaderdata').getField('selfdesc');
// add aan "alert" custom state to that field, with an alert icon
field1.controller.setCustomState('Alert');
// add a "bg" custom state
field1.controller.setCustomState('Alert1', {icon: 'fas fa-exclamation-triangle'})
// remove the custom state from that field
field1.controller.clearCustomState('Alert1')'bg');
// remove the custom state from that field
field1.controller.clearCustomState('Alert');


For styling we use the "akcustomstate" attribute and search if it contains the desired value. Note: the name of the custom state should match the CSS definition (case-sensitive)
