As noted previously, some objects require a selector to ensure that the correct object is selected, while other nodes provide a default object without a selector.
The table below shows what selectors are required for the diferent nodes and whether the selector is optional (i.e. if it can be omitted to select the default object).
| Object | Key | Optional? | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
bar <api/bars> |
"top", "bottom" (Note: if accessing this node from the root, users on multi-monitor setups may wish to navigate via a screen node to ensure that they select the correct object.) |
No | c.screen.bar["bottom"] |
group <api/groups> |
Name string | Yes | c.group["one"] c.group |
layout <api/layouts> |
Integer index | Yes | c.layout[2] c.layout |
screen <api/screens> |
Integer index | Yes | c.screen[1] c.screen |
widget <api/widgets> |
Widget name (This is usually the name of the widget class in lower case but can be set by passing the name parameter to the widget.) |
No | c.widget["textbox"] |
window <api/windows> |
Integer window ID | Yes | c.window[123456] c.window |
core <api/backend> |
No | n/a | c.core |
