Class s7sdk.favorites.FavoritesEffect
The FavoritesEffect
is an effect component which implements storing, rendering and editing capabilities for "favorites" feature.
FavoritesEffect
stores information about favorites in the Local Storage. Favorites collection is unique for particular catalog, company,
Image Serving URL and embedding web page location. The feature will not work if Local Storage is disabled on client's system, application may use
supportsHTML5Storage()
static method to check if storage is avaialble.
Just like other "effect" components FavoritesEffect
is attached to main view component and renders avaialble favorite icons on top of the main image.
FavoritesEffect
supports three operation modes: FavoritesEffect.MODE_VIEW
, where it just renders avaialble favorites on top of main view but
does not react to end user's actions; FavoritesEffect.MODE_ADD
which adds new favorite icon in place of user's click or tap action and
FavoritesEffect.MODE_REMOVE
which removes existing favorite if user clicks or taps on it. Operation mode can be changed using setMode()
method, effective mode can be found using getMode()
. The component automatically reverts to FavoritesEffect.MODE_VIEW
operation mode
after user has added or removed a favorite.
Every favorite icon added to the catalog is represented by FavoriteDesc
instance. The list of all avaialble favorites for this particular asset
can be retrieved using getFavorites()
method. In addition, the component dipatches FavoritesEvent.FAVORITES_CHANGED
event each time the list
of favorites changes because of loading new catalog, adding new or removing existing favorite by the end user.
Modifiers change FavoritesEffect
default behavior. They are passed to the component by the ParameterManager
instance
specified in the constructor.
The following modifiers are supported:
Modifier | Syntax | Description | Default |
expiration | days | Number of days the collection of favorites will be kept on the client's system before they expire. Every time user visits the catalog and makes some changes to the favorites (like add or remove one) expiration timer is reset. | 30 |
Defining the Appearance using CSS
The CSS class for styling the FavoritesEffect
is .s7favoriteseffect
.
You can style these states by adding the state attribute selector to the CSS class.
It is recommended that you define common CSS under
the main class and only define the necessary distinctions when you use attribute selectors.
CSS Class | Attribute Selector | Description |
.s7favoriteseffect | cursortype=[mode_add|mode_remove|mode_view] | Defines the appearance of mouse cursior in different operation modes. |
.s7icon | (None) | Defines the appearance of the favorite icons. |
.s7tooltip | (None) | A global class selector that defines appearance for the tooltips. To disable tooltips set the display style to none . |
Localized Symbols
FavoritesEffect
also has text symbols that you can localize either in a preset or in the viewer page though the mechanisms
provided by the ParameterManager
. For more information on localization consult the ParameterManager
API documentation and HTML5 Viewers SDK User Guide.
Symbol | Description |
FavoritesEffect.TOOLTIP | Define a localized tooltip of single favorite icon |

Example Code
This example demonstrates how to use favorites components in a simple viewer. In this example a PageView, ThumbnailGridView,
Swatches and TableOfContents component are put together to construct a simple eCatalog viewer. On top of that, we are adding a set
of components to support "favorites" feature: FavoritesMany is added to the top ControlBar with the 3 buttons: AddFavoriteButton,
RemoveFavoriteButton and ViewAllFavoritesButton. FavoritesEffect component is attached to PageView to support rendering and editing
of favorites. FavoritesView component becomes available when user clicks on ViewAllFavoritesButton button and allows to review all
available favorites.
The code below does the following:
- The Scene7 HTML5 SDK is linked to the page and the required s7sdk components are included in the document head.
- CSS Styles are defined in the document head to control the appearance of the SDK components.
- The s7sdk.Util.init() method is called to initialize the SDK.
- A ParameterManager object is created to handle component modifiers for the viewer.
- An initViewer() function is defined. This function initializes a couple of modifiers (hard coded for example purposes),
then creates the component objects required for this simple example. The initViewer() function also adds event listeners
that designate functions to handle relevant component events (which might be dispatched by the components as a result of
user interactions, changes in a component's state, etc.).
- Handler functions are defined to respond to the component event listeners added in the initViewer() function.
- An event listener is added to the ParameterManager object that designates the initViewer() function as the handler
to call when the Scene7 SDK is loaded and ready.
- Finally, the init() method is called on the ParameterManager object to start the viewer.

- Dispatched when the list of favorites changes because of loading new catalog, adding new or removing existing favorite by the end user. s7sdk.event.FavoritesEvent- Parameters:
- {String} type
- Event name, for example
s7sdk.event.FavoritesEvent.FAVORITES_CHANGED
. - {Function} handler
- Function to be called when the event gets dispatched.
- {Boolean} useCapture
- Register capture phase.
- Returns:
- {Array} Array of
FavoriteDesc
instances.
- Returns:
- {Number} one of the following constants: s7sdk.favorites.FavoritesEffect.MODE_VIEW, s7sdk.favorites.FavoritesEffect.MODE_ADD or s7sdk.favorites.FavoritesEffect.MODE_REMOVE.
- Parameters:

- Parameters:
- {Object} modObj
- A simple JSON object with name:value pairs of valid modifiers for a particular component
true
if the underlying system supports HTML5 Storage, false
otherwise.
