TopAppBar

The Top App Bar provides information and actions related to the current screen, serving as a tool for branding, navigation, search, and actions.

Usage

Import the component:

import 'mdui/components/top-app-bar.js';
import 'mdui/components/top-app-bar-title.js';

Import the TypeScript type:

import type { TopAppBar } from 'mdui/components/top-app-bar.js';
import type { TopAppBarTitle } from 'mdui/components/top-app-bar-title.js';

Example: (Note: The style="position: relative" in the example is for demonstration purposes. Remove it in actual use.)

Title
<mdui-top-app-bar style="position: relative;">
  <mdui-button-icon icon="menu"></mdui-button-icon>
  <mdui-top-app-bar-title>Title</mdui-top-app-bar-title>
  <div style="flex-grow: 1"></div>
  <mdui-button-icon icon="more_vert"></mdui-button-icon>
</mdui-top-app-bar>

Notes:

By default, the top app bar uses position: fixed and automatically adds padding-top to the body to prevent the page content from being obscured.

However, it uses position: absolute in the following cases:

  1. When the scroll-target attribute is specified. In this case, padding-top is added to the element specified by scroll-target.
  2. When it is within the <mdui-layout></mdui-layout> component. In this case, padding-top is not added.

Examples

In Container

By default, the top app bar is positioned relative to the current window and appears at the top of the page.

To place the top app bar inside a container, specify the scroll-target attribute on the <mdui-top-app-bar> component. Set its value to the CSS selector or DOM element of the container with scrollable content. In this case, the top app bar will be positioned relative to the parent element. Ensure to add the styles position: relative; overflow: hidden to the parent element.

Shape

The variant attribute on the <mdui-top-app-bar> component sets the shape of the top app bar.

Scroll Behavior

The scroll-behavior attribute on the <mdui-top-app-bar> component defines the top app bar's behavior when the page is scrolled. You can use multiple scroll behaviors simultaneously by separating them with spaces.

Scroll behaviors include:

  • hide: Hides the top app bar when scrolling down and shows it when scrolling up.
  • shrink: Effective when variant is medium or large. Expands the top app bar when scrolling down and shrinks it when scrolling up.
  • elevate: Adds a shadow to the top app bar when scrolling down and removes the shadow when scrolling back to the top.

The scroll-threshold attribute sets the number of pixels to start the scroll behavior of the top app bar. (Do not set the scroll-threshold attribute when using the elevate scroll behavior to respond promptly)

Example: Hide on Scroll

Example: Add Shadow on Scroll

Example: Shrink on Scroll

Example: Shrink and Add Shadow on Scroll

Expanded State Text

For a top app bar with variant set to medium or large, and scroll-behavior set to shrink, you can use the label-large slot within the <mdui-top-app-bar-title> component to specify the text displayed in the expanded state.
