API

The following options are available:

Collapsible

If set to 'true' the panels are collapsible. The values 'tabs' and 'accordion' can be used to make the panels collapsible in a specific view/state. If a tab is active and you select it again, the panel will collapse.

collapsible: false // The panels are not collapsible
collapsible: true // The panels are collapsible
collapsible: 'tabs' // The panels are only collapsible if the view is currently tab based
collapsible: 'accordion' // The panels are only collapsible if the view is currently accordion based

Start collapsed

This option defines if the first panel on load starts collapsed or not. With the values 'tabs' and 'accordion' you can specify in which view the tabs are supposed to start collapsed.

startCollapsed: false // Do not collapse on start
startCollapsed: true // Start with the panels collapsed
startCollapsed: 'tabs' // Start with the panels collapsed if the view is currently tab based
startCollapsed: 'accordion' // Start with the panels collapsed if the view is currently accordion based

Disabled tabs

An array with zero based integers that define the tabs that should be disabled

disabled: [0,2] // Disables the first and third tab

Active tab

An 0 based integer that defines the initial opened tab on load.

active: 1 // Opens the second tab on load

Accordion Tab HTML element

A single HTML element template in which the accordion tab will be wrapped.

accordionTabElement: '<div></div>'

Set hash

A boolean that can be used to enable and disable the setting of a reference to the selected tab in the URL hash. If set to 'true', the selecting of a new tab will set the reference to that tab in the URL hash.

setHash: true

Rotate

This option can be used to auto rotate the tabs. The tabs will stop rotating when a tab is selected.

rotate: false, // The tabs won't auto rotate
rotate: true, // The tabs will auto rotate from the start

Event

You can enable / disable the queueing of the animation by setting the animationQueue option.

animationQueue: false, // (default) disables the queueing of the animations. With this option on, all animations happen at the same time
animationQueue: true, // enables the queueing of the animations. With this option on, animations wait for each other
animationQueue: 'tabs', // enables the queueing of the animations for the tabs state only
animationQueue: 'accordion', // enables the queueing of the animations for the accordion state only

You can set the speed of the animation by setting the duration option.

duration: 500, // (default) Sets the animation duration to 500

Scroll to Accordion panel

This options can be used to enable automatic scrolling to the accordion panel that has been opened

scrollToAccordion: false, // (default) disables the auto scrolling to the accordion panel
scrollToAccordion: true, // enables the auto scrolling to the accordion panel

Scroll to Accordion panel on load

This option can be used to disabling the scrolling to an accordion panel on load

scrollToAccordionOnLoad: true, // (default) enables scrolling to accordion on load

You can define an offset in pixels for the scroll to accordion panel by setting the scrollToAccordionOffset option.

scrollToAccordionOffset: false, // (default) disables the auto scrolling to the accordion panel
scrollToAccordionOffset: true, // enables the auto scrolling to the accordion panel

Navigation container

This option can be used to select a different container element for the navigation <ul>.

navigationContainer: '.some-css-selector'
