Diagram: Inherit UIData

[rider87]

Describe the bug

It seems the p:diagram does not generate a iterator (uniqueId).
Therefore all element / components inside a <f:facet name="element"> // MyComponent has the same id.

<h:form id="automationFlowChartForm">
	<p:diagram id="automationDiagram"
				value="#{myController.model}"
				var="diagramElement">
		<p:ajax event="positionChange"
					listener="#{automationFlowChartView.doSavePosition()}" />
		<f:facet name="element">
			<f:attribute name="element" value="#{diagramElement}" />
			<p:panel id="triggerPanel" >
				<f:facet name="header">
					<h:outputText styleClass="#{diagramElement.icon} Fs11" />
					<h:outputText value="#{diagramElement.name}"
				styleClass="FontBold Fs11" style="margin-left: 10px;" />
				</f:facet>
				<h:outputText id="triggerText" value="TEST" />
			</p:panel>
		</f:facet>
	</p:diagram>
</h:form>

This means also a normal actionListener for a element is also not working and I will always get only the first element from p:diagram.
<p:commandButton actionListener="#{myController.openDialogClicked(element)}" icon="fa fa-edit" />

<f:facet name="element"> has a unique ID, but all components inside has the same ID.
I would assume a iterator, like in the p:datatable etc.

So for the component inside the <f:facet name="element"> you have than something like:
automationFlowChartForm:0:triggerPanel, for the next panel automationFlowChartForm:1:triggerPanel, but currently for all panels you will have:
automationFlowChartForm:triggerPanel.
This means also for buttons etc.: if you hover on a button, it will change the color for each button with this ID, because all components are not unique...

I can see this also in the HTML console:

Green is the var="diagramElement", but you can see the ID from the panel is always the same.

Can this be fixed?

[rider87]

thanks... any plans to fix this?

I added this ticket in #8765 so we can track it there. But to fix this if I had to guess would involve extending UIData instead of UIComponent or something along those lines which is not a simple fix.

Same as #10762 this component needs to inherit UIData.
