<paper-menu>¶ ↑
Material design: Menus
<paper-menu>
implements an accessible menu control with Material Design styling. The focused item is highlighted, and the selected item has bolded text.
<paper-menu> <paper-item>Item 1</paper-item> <paper-item>Item 2</paper-item> </paper-menu>
An initial selection can be specified with the selected
attribute.
<paper-menu selected="0"> <paper-item>Item 1</paper-item> <paper-item>Item 2</paper-item> </paper-menu>
Make a multi-select menu with the multi
attribute. Items in a multi-select menu can be deselected, and multiple items can be selected.
<paper-menu multi> <paper-item>Item 1</paper-item> <paper-item>Item 2</paper-item> </paper-menu>

Accessibility¶ ↑
<paper-menu>
has role="menu"
by default. A multi-select menu will also have aria-multiselectable
set. It implements key bindings to navigate through the menu with the up and down arrow keys, esc to exit the menu, and enter to activate a menu item. Typing the first letter of a menu item will also focus it.
<paper-submenu>¶ ↑
<paper-submenu>
is a nested menu inside of a parent <paper-menu>
. It consists of a trigger that expands or collapses another <paper-menu>
:
<paper-menu> <paper-submenu> <paper-item class="menu-trigger">Topics</paper-item> <paper-menu class="menu-content"> <paper-item>Topic 1</paper-item> <paper-item>Topic 2</paper-item> <paper-item>Topic 3</paper-item> </paper-menu> </paper-submenu> <paper-submenu> <paper-item class="menu-trigger">Faves</paper-item> <paper-menu class="menu-content"> <paper-item>Fave 1</paper-item> <paper-item>Fave 2</paper-item> </paper-menu> </paper-submenu> <paper-submenu disabled> <paper-item class="menu-trigger">Unavailable</paper-item> <paper-menu class="menu-content"> <paper-item>Disabled 1</paper-item> <paper-item>Disabled 2</paper-item> </paper-menu> </paper-submenu> </paper-menu>
Just like in <paper-menu>
, the focused item is highlighted, and the selected item has bolded text. Please see the <paper-menu>
docs for which attributes (such as multi
and selected
), and styling options are available for the menu-content
menu.
