Usage

The action bar is designed to be controlled by table or checkbox selections. It provides a set of actions that can be performed on the selected items.

import { ActionBar } from "@chakra-ui/react"

<ActionBar.Root>
  <ActionBar.Positioner>
    <ActionBar.Content>
      <ActionBar.CloseTrigger />
      <ActionBar.SelectionTrigger />
      <ActionBar.Separator />
    </ActionBar.Content>
  </ActionBar.Positioner>
</ActionBar.Root>

Examples

Close Trigger

Render the ActionBar.CloseTrigger to close the action bar, and pass the onOpenChange handler to control the visibility of the action bar.

The open and onOpenChange props control the visibility of the action bar.

Within Dialog

Here's an example of composing the ActionBar and the Dialog to perform a delete action on a set of selected items.

Press the Delete projects button to open the dialog.

Check to select projects

Props

Root

Prop	Default	Type
`autoFocus`	`true`	`boolean` Whether to automatically set focus on the first focusable content within the popover when opened.
`closeOnEscape`	`true`	`boolean` Whether to close the popover when the escape key is pressed.

`lazyMount`	`false`	`boolean` Whether to enable lazy mounting
`modal`	`false`	`boolean` Whether the popover should be modal. When set to `true`: - interaction with outside elements will be disabled - only popover content will be visible to screen readers - scrolling is blocked - focus is trapped within the popover
`portalled`	`true`	`boolean` Whether the popover is portalled. This will proxy the tabbing behavior regardless of the DOM position of the popover content.
`skipAnimationOnMount`	`false`	`boolean` Whether to allow the initial presence animation.
`unmountOnExit`	`false`	`boolean` Whether to unmount on exit.
`colorPalette`	`'gray'`	`'gray' \| 'red' \| 'orange' \| 'yellow' \| 'green' \| 'teal' \| 'blue' \| 'cyan' \| 'purple' \| 'pink'` The color palette of the component

`as`		`React.ElementType` The underlying element to render.

`id`		`string` The unique identifier of the machine.
`ids`		`Partial<{ anchor: string trigger: string content: string title: string description: string closeTrigger: string positioner: string arrow: string }>` The ids of the elements in the popover. Useful for composition.
`immediate`		`boolean` Whether to synchronize the present change immediately or defer it to the next frame
`initialFocusEl`		`() => HTMLElement \| null` The element to focus on when the popover is opened.
`onEscapeKeyDown`		`(event: KeyboardEvent) => void` Function called when the escape key is pressed
`onExitComplete`		`VoidFunction` Function called when the animation ends in the closed state
`onFocusOutside`		`(event: FocusOutsideEvent) => void` Function called when the focus is moved outside the component
`onInteractOutside`		`(event: InteractOutsideEvent) => void` Function called when an interaction happens outside the component
`onOpenChange`		`(details: OpenChangeDetails) => void` Function invoked when the popover opens or closes
`onPointerDownOutside`		`(event: PointerDownOutsideEvent) => void` Function called when the pointer is pressed down outside the component
`open`		`boolean` The controlled open state of the popover
`persistentElements`		`(() => Element \| null)[]` Returns the persistent elements that: - should not have pointer-events disabled - should not trigger the dismiss event
