# cp.ui.SplitGroup

Split Group UI. A SplitGroup is a container that can be split into multiple sections. Each section is an Element, and they are divided by a Splitter, resulting in something like { Element, Splitter, Element }.

# API Documentation

# Functions

# matches


Signature	`cp.ui.SplitGroup.matches(element) -> boolean`
Type	Function
Description	Checks to see if an element matches what we think it should be.
Parameters	element - An `axuielementObject` to check.
Returns	`true` if matches otherwise `false`
Notes	None
Examples	None
Source	src/extensions/cp/ui/SplitGroup.lua line 21

# Constructors

# SplitGroup


Signature	`cp.ui.SplitGroup(parent, uiFinder, childInits) -> cp.ui.SplitGroup`
Type	Constructor
Description	Creates a new `SplitGroup`.
Parameters	parent - The parent object. uiFinder - The `function` or `cp.prop` which returns an `hs.axuielement` for the `SplitGroup`, or `nil`. childInits - A `table` of section-creating functions, in order, including the `Splitter`s.
Returns	A new `SplitGroup` instance.
Notes	Many `childInints` values can be the actual `Element` value (eg: `TextArea`), since they only require the `parent` and `uiFinder` parameters. The cp.fn.ax.init function can be useful for passing in `Element` types which require more than just the `parent` and `uiFinder` values. Example: `SplitGroup(parent, uiFinder, { cp.fn.ax.init(ScrollArea, cp.ui.List), cp.fn.ax.init(ScrollArea, cp.ui.TextArea) })
Examples	None

# childrenUI


Signature	`cp.ui.SplitGroup.childrenUI <cp.prop: table of axuielementObject, read-only>`
Type	Field
Description	The list of `axuielementObject`s for the sections, sorted in top-down order.

# sections


Signature	`cp.ui.SplitGroup.sections <table: table of cp.ui.Element, read-only>`
