	// Alt + Shift + N
	if (e.altKey && e.shiftKey && e.code === "KeyN") {

		// Get Selected Branches
		const selectedBranches = ioctopus.getSelectedBranches();

		// Each branches
		for (let branch of selectedBranches) {

			// Change the branch content
			let text = branch.getText();
			
			// Change the text as you want
			// (you can use html)...

Branches

Get branch by id:

const branch = ioctopus.getBranchById(ID);

Get selected branches:

const selectedBranches = ioctopus.getSelectedBranches();

Get text of a branch: Set text to a branch: Add a child branch:
branch.addChild({
	content: {
		text: "My new branch",
	}
});

Show/hide branch "Loading..."

branch.loading();
branch.loadingStop();

Add button to branch:

branch.addButton('buttonName', {
	icon: 'fa-equals fas',
	title: 'Title on hover',
	label: 'Button label',
	click: () => {
		console.log('Button pressed')
	},
})

branch.removeButton('buttonName')

ioctopus.$on('branch-map-data', ({ $branch, mapData }) => {

});

Selection

Count of selected elements:

ioctopus.selectedCount

Selected elements

let selectedElementsArray = ioctopus.getSelected();

Choose elements

To give your users possibility to pick a branch use next:

ioctopus.startPicking($branch => {
	ioctopus.stopPicking();
	console.log('$branch', $branch);
});

Stop picking:

ioctopus.stopPicking();

Menubar

How to add a button to the menubar:

// Menubar
ioctopus.addButtonToMenubar({
	to: 'tools',
	button: {
		label: 'Button label',
		icon: 'fas fa-calendar-alt', // Font Awesome
		click() {
			// ...
		},
	},
});

Dialogs

Open dialog:

ioctopus.openDialog({
	header: 'Header of dialog',

	// Vue Component
	component: {
		template: `<p>Content</p>`,
	}

}).then(dialog => {
	//...
});

Close dialog

dialog.close();

Disable Shortcodes on Text Input

After focus an input:

ioctopus.onFocus();

After blur an input:

ioctopus.onBlur();

Example:

ioctopus.openDialog({
	header: 'Header of dialog',

	// Vue Component
	component: {
		methods: {
			
			onFocus() {
				ioctopus.onFocus();
			},


			onBlur() {
				ioctopus.onBlur();
			},
		},
		template: `<input @focus="onFocus" @blur="onBlur">`,
	}

});

ioctopus.save();
