🚀 Getting Started
vue-float-menu has some great defaults. Please check the props section for all available options.
vue-float-menu
finds the optimal menu orientation depending on the position of the menu. for e.g if the menu is placed at the bottom edge and the orientation set to bottom
, the component will automatically flip the orientation to top
.
Here is a basic example that sets the default position of the menu as top left
.
<template>
<float-menu
:position="'top left'"
:dimension="50"
:menu-data="items"
:on-selected="handleSelection"
>
Drag
</float-menu>
</template>
<script>
import { FloatMenu } from "vue-float-menu";
import "vue-float-menu/dist/vue-float-menu.css";
export default {
components: {
FloatMenu,
},
setup() {
const handleSelection = (selectedItem) => {
console.log(selectedItem);
};
return {
handleSelection,
};
},
data() {
return {
items: [
{ name: "New" },
{
name: "Edit",
subMenu: {
name: "edit-items",
items: [{ name: "Copy" }, { name: "Paste" }],
},
},
{
name: "Open Recent"
},
{
name: "Save",
}
],
};
},
};
</script>

Position
The position
prop can be used to set the initial position of the Menu Head. The prop can accept any one of the following values.
top left
(default)top right
bottom left
bottom right
<float-menu :dimension=50 position="bottom right">
<template #icon>
<BoxIcon />
</template>
</float-menu>
Menu head dimension
dimension
prop can be used to set the width and height of the menu head. The prop takes a single number value to set the height and width of the Menu Head.
<float-menu :dimension=50>
<template #icon>
<BoxIcon />
</template>
</float-menu>
Menu dimension
prop to set the height
and width
of the menu.
<float-menu
:dimension=50
:menu-dimension="{height: 400, width: 300}"
position="bottom right"
>
<template #icon>
<BoxIcon />
</template>
</float-menu>
Menu Style
The component supports two modes slide-out
(default) and accordion
. The accordion
style is more suitable for mobile devices.
<float-menu
position="bottom right"
flip-on-edges
menu-style="accordion"
>
<template #icon>
<BoxIcon />
</template>
</float-menu>
Populating the Menu
Use the menu-data
prop to create simple or nested menus of your liking. menu-data
takes an array of MenuItem
type
MenuItem
properties
| property | description | | ----------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- | | name | display name of the menu item. | | subMenu | data for the sub-menu | | disabled | disables the menu item | | divider | makes the item as a divider |
Here we create a simple Menu structure with 3 Menu items with no sub menus.
const menuData = [
{ name: "New" },
{
name: "Edit",
subMenu: {
name: "edit-items",
items: [{ name: "Copy" }, { name: "Paste", disabled: true }],
},
},
{divider: true},
{
name: "Open Recent",
subMenu: {
name: "recent-items",
items: [{ name: "Document 1" }, {divider: true}, { name: "Document 2" }],
},
},
]
<float-menu
:dimension=50
:menu-dimension="{height: 400, width: 300}"
:menu-data="menuData"
position="bottom right"
>
<BoxIcon />
</float-menu>
on-select
hook for the menu item selection event.
<float-menu
:dimension=50
position="bottom right"
:menu-dimension="{height: 400, width: 300}"
:menu-data="{items: [{name: 'File'}, {name: 'Open'}]}"
on-select="handleSelection"
>
<BoxIcon />
</float-menu>
Flip on edges
setting this prop flips
the menu content on the right edges of the screen.
<float-menu
:dimension=50
position="bottom right"
flip-on-edges
on-select="handleSelection"
>
<BoxIcon />
</float-menu>
Fixed Menu
To disable dragging and to fix the position statically, set fixed
to true
. This prop is disabled by default. Use this prop along with the position
prop to set the desired position.
<float-menu :dimension=50 position="bottom right" fixed>
<template #icon>
<BoxIcon />
</template>
</float-menu>
🎨 Custom icon
To customize the Menu Icon, simply pass any content in between the float-menu
tags. Here we render a custom icon.
<float-menu
:dimension=50
:menu-data="menuData"
>
<template #icon>
<BoxIcon />
</template>
</float-menu>
and here we render a text Click
inside the Menu handle
<float-menu
:dimension=50
:menu-data="menuData"
>
Click
</float-menu>
🎭 Icon support
Each menu item can be iconified and the component uses slots to inject the icons.
Pass individual icons (or images) as templates marked with a unique slot id
. please make sure the ids
match the iconSlot
property in the items array.
<float-menu
:menu-data="items"
>
<template #new>
<img
src="../assets/new.svg"
alt="new"
>
</template>
<template #edit>
<img
src="../assets/edit.svg"
alt="edit"
>
</template>
</float-menu>
export default defineComponent({
name: "MenuExample",
data() {
return {
items: [
{ name: "New File", iconSlot: "new" },
{ name: "New Window", iconSlot: "edit" },
]
}
}
})
This works seamlessly even for nested
menu structure. Make sure the slot ids
match and the component will render the icons appropriately.
<float-menu
:menu-data="items"
>
<template #cut>
<img
src="../assets/window-maximize.svg"
alt="cut"
>
</template>
</float-menu>
export default defineComponent({
name: "MenuExample",
data() {
return {
items: [
{ name: "edit",
subMenu: [{ name: "cut", iconSlot: "cut" }]},
]
}
}
});
🌈 Theme
Customize the color schemes with the theme
prop.
<float-menu
:dimension=50
:theme="{
primary: '#00539C',
textColor: '#000',
menuBgColor: '#fff',
textSelectedColor: '#fff',
}"
>
Click
</float-menu>
