Class: ActionFieldLayout

.ui.ActionFieldLayout(fieldWidget, buttonWidget, config)

new ActionFieldLayout(fieldWidget, buttonWidget, config)

ActionFieldLayouts are used with OO.ui.FieldsetLayout. The layout consists of a field-widget, a button, and an optional label and/or help text. The field-widget (e.g., a TextInputWidget), is required and is specified before any optional configuration settings.

Labels can be aligned in one of four ways:

  • left: The label is placed before the field-widget and aligned with the left margin. A left-alignment is used for forms with many fields.
  • right: The label is placed before the field-widget and aligned to the right margin. A right-alignment is used for long but familiar forms which users tab through, verifying the current field with a quick glance at the label.
  • top: The label is placed above the field-widget. A top-alignment is used for brief forms that users fill out from top to bottom.
  • inline: The label is placed after the field-widget and aligned to the left. An inline-alignment is best used with checkboxes or radio buttons.

Help text is accessed via a help icon that appears in the upper right corner of the rendered field layout when help text is specified.
