4.2.6 (Oct 2006)

New Attribute: popupVisible
popupVisible applies to all components which support the popup attribute and have supplied a popup.  Toggling this attribute will show/hide the popup specified in the "popup" attribute. Setting this attribute to true will not fire the onContextMenu event. This attribute can be used to create a popup that appears for events other than the popup trigger event (typically right mouse release) and is often used in conjunction with contextPopup="false" on the popup.

New Attribute: contextPopup
contextPopup applies to <popup>.  If true the popup is considered a context popup and appears when the popup trigger event occurs. (Typically right mouse release). If false the popup will not be displayed automatically when the popup trigger occurs. Setting this to false is often used in conjunction with the "popupVisible" attribute on the element that references this popup via the "popup" attribute create a popup that appears for events other than the popup trigger event.
The default is true.

New Attribute: selectionPolicy
selectionPolicy applies to <listBox>.  selectionPolicy defines the selection behavior of the list.  The default is doubleClick except in listBoxes inside of comboBox popups where the default is singleClick.  doubleClick requires the end user to double-click on a listItem for the listItem to become selected, and the onSelect event to fire.  A single click will cause the listItem to be highlighted.  When selectionPolicy=singleClick, listItems will be highlighted by mouseOver, and selection will occur on a single click.

Defects Resolved

IdDescription
6354add a popupVisible attribute so developers can programatically trigger a popup to display
6353add a contextPopup=true/false attribute to allow developers to specify whether the popup will behave like a contextMenu or a comboBox's popup
6352add a selectionPolicy attribute to listBox to expose the flyover highlighting and singleClick selection a comboBox's listBox has
6329712-2678606 - Some rows are repeated across subsequent pages (e.g. bottom of page 2 overlaps top of page 3) with PrintService.printElement(Element element)
6316712-2678606 - PrintService.printElement (using FOP renderer) doesn't wrap cell contents if they are words
6308712-2773177 - drop-down of comboBox hovers when the parent frame (rootPane) is scrolled 
6302712-2861055 - CheckBoxes inserted by NFC into tables as heavyweight cells do not respond to user interaction until the table is scrolled
6280712-2810392 - Table heavyweight cells don't focus on tab and automatically scroll properly outside the visible area of the table
6273712-2854459 - Tabbing out of comboBox will incorrectly invoke the type-ahead selection to select a listItem containing a tab character
