Tray (SAP Library - Web Dynpro for ABAP)

Tray

The Tray UI element (IWDTray) is a UI element container like the Group UI element container and can be used to group a set of UI elements under one common title. Unlike the Group UI element it provides additional functions. For example, the Tray UI element can be displayed or hidden.

Examples of the Display

Note

To enable the development of accessible applications, the accessibilityDescription property is checked during the syntax check if the caption property is not set.

The tooltip property is not checked.

A tooltip does not necessarily have to be set for this UI element, but it could make sense to set it if it contains detailed semantic information.
