What is a popover menu
----------------------

This is a quick menu that open on click. For menus, we use the three-dot-icon.

This is exactly the same as the :ref:`navigation menu <navigation_menu>`. The only difference is the popovermenu class.

Basic layout
------------

   :figclass: figure-with-code

.. code-block:: html

    <div class="popovermenu">
        <ul>
           <li>
               <a href="#" class="icon-details">
                   <span>Details</span>
               </a>
           </li>
           <li>
               <button class="icon-close">
                   <span>Remove</span>
               </button>
           </li>
           <li>
               <button>
                   <span class="icon-favorite"></span>
                   <span>Favorite</span>
               </button>
           </li>
           <li>
               <a>
                   <span class="icon-rename"></span>
                   <span>Edit</span>
               </a>
           </li>
           <li>
               <span class="menuitem">
                   <input id="check1" type="checkbox" class="checkbox" />
                   <label for="check1">Enable</label>
               </span>
           </li>
           <li>
               <span class="menuitem">
                   <input id="radio1" type="radio" class="radio" />
                   <label for="radio1">Select</label>
               </span>
           </li>
            <li>
                <span class="menuitem">
                    <span class="icon icon-user"></span>
                    <form>
                            <input id="input-folder" type="text" value="new email">
                            <input type="submit" value=" " class="primary icon-checkmark-white">
                    </form>
                </span>
            </li>
             <li>
                 <span class="menuitem">
                     <span class="icon icon-folder"></span>
                     <form>
                             <input id="input-folder" type="text" value="New folder">
                             <input type="submit" value=" " class="icon-confirm">
                     </form>
                 </span>
             </li>
        </ul>
    </div>

Technical details
-----------------

* The only allowed menu items elements are **a**, **button** and **span** for the checkbox and radio only.
* You can mix between a and button on the same menu (in case of form or direct link) like the example above
* You need to put the entire menu just after the three dot icon ``<div><span class="icon-more"></span><div class="popovermenu">...</div></div>``
* You do not need JS, CSS only is ok for positioning. JS is **still** required to handle the hide/show.
* Only **one** ul is allowed.
* Only **one level** of menu is allowed.
* Every entry **needs** to have its own icon. This greatly improves the UX.
* The required **right** distance to the border (or padding, whatever you want to use) of the three-dot icon should be 14px (5 for menu margin and 6 for arrow position)
* The ``span`` element **must** have the ``menuitem`` class.
* The checkbox/radio must use the :ref:`nextcloud custom <checkboxes-and-radios>`
* The form element is optional if you're using inputs.
* Supported inputs are all text based ones and buttons type ones

Alignment
---------

If you want to align your menu, you can add the class to the main popovermenu div.

* Center: ``menu-center``
* Left: ``menu-left``
* Right is by default
