Terminal TAST

Binding Objects

Bind also allows binding values to the properties of the fundamental TAST objects. Pad and Inlines accept the binding of any of their properties. Change the size of padding or action through binding dynamically.

Binding Pad properties

Bind sets the Pad properties width, alignment and character through their corresponding bindWidth, bindAlignment and bindCharacter counterparts.

Name	Type	Description
bindWidth	string	A property of the current ViewModel that contains the width for the pad.
bindAlignment	string	A property of the current ViewModel that contains the alignment for the pad.
bindCharacter	string	A property of the current ViewModel that contains the character for the pad.
