Layouts

Image Uploader has two different-looking layouts that determine its appearance. To specify which one of them should be used, set the Uploader.PaneLayoutPaneLayout (ASP.NET)PaneLayout (PHP)paneLayout (JavaScript) property.

Three Panes Layout

This is a default layout which consists of three panes:

  • Tree pane is the folder tree allowing users to navigate their file systems.
  • Folder pane displays the content of the currently selected folder.
  • Upload pane contains files ready to be uploaded.
Three Panes Layout

Both the tree and upload panes are collapsible.

Three Panes Layout

Image Uploader displays this layout when the Uploader.PaneLayout property is ThreePanes.

ASP.NET
<aur:Uploader ID="Uploader1" runat="server" 
    PaneLayout="ThreePanes" />
PHP
$uploader = new Uploader("Uploader1");
$uploader->setPaneLayout("ThreePanes");
JavaScript
var u = $au.uploader({
    id: 'Uploader1',
    paneLayout: 'ThreePanes'
});

Uploading Files

To upload files in this layout, follow these steps:

  1. In the tree pane select a folder containing necessary files and/or folders.
  2. In the folder pane check desired files and/or folders or drag-and-drop them onto the upload pane. To check all files at once use the Check all option of the context menu.
  3. Select necessary files and/or folders in Windows Explorer, Finder, or any other graphic shell you use and drop them onto the upload pane.
  4. Repeat Steps 1-3 until all the necessary files are added to the upload pane.
  5. Click the Upload button.

One Pane Layout

The one pane layout is more minimalistic than a default one. Here Image Uploader displays only the upload pane representing a list of files selected for upload.

One Pane Layout

To specify this layout set the Uploader.PaneLayout property to the OnePane value:

ASP.NET
<aur:Uploader ID="Uploader1" runat="server" 
    PaneLayout="OnePane" />   
PHP
$uploader = new Uploader("Uploader1");
$uploader->setPaneLayout("OnePane");
JavaScript
var u = $au.uploader({
    id: 'Uploader1',
    paneLayout: 'OnePane'
});

Uploading Files

  1. Add files to the upload pane using the following ways:
    • Select necessary files and/or folders in Windows Explorer, Finder, or any other graphic shell you use and drop them onto the upload pane.
    • Call the uploadPane.addFiles() method and select files in the standard Open File dialog.
    • Call the uploadPane.addFolders() method and select a folder in the standard Open Folder dialog.
  2. Repeat Step 1 until all the necessary files are added to the upload pane.
  3. Click the Upload button.
