Walkthrough

The column-toggle menu now uses a named fc-column-toggle slot in the grid shadow root. ColumnToggleHelper manages the menu bar directly, updated styles target the slotted element, the former toggle-column API is deprecated, and tests validate the new rendering model.

Changes

Column toggle migration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Slot creation and styling
src/main/resources/META-INF/frontend/fcGridHelper/connector.js, src/main/resources/META-INF/frontend/fcGridHelper/styles.css
The connector creates the fc-column-toggle slot. Styles position and size the slotted vaadin-menu-bar and update its theme-specific spacing.
Menu rendering and API behavior
src/main/java/com/flowingcode/vaadin/addons/gridhelpers/ColumnToggleHelper.java, src/main/java/com/flowingcode/vaadin/addons/gridhelpers/GridHelper.java
ColumnToggleHelper appends or removes the menu bar from the grid element and assigns the slot. The menu uses caret-down and tertiary styling. isMenuToggleColumn is deprecated and always returns false.
Column-toggle validation
src/test/java/com/flowingcode/vaadin/addons/gridhelpers/it/ColumnToggleIT.java, src/test/java/com/flowingcode/vaadin/addons/gridhelpers/it/GridHelperElement.java, src/test/java/com/flowingcode/vaadin/addons/gridhelpers/test/GridHelperTest.java
Tests locate the slotted menu, verify its slot assignment, and remove assertions that treated the toggle as a dedicated grid column.
Project version update
pom.xml
The Maven project version changes to 2.2.0-SNAPSHOT.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 41a11

The PR changes toggle-column API behavior, but the current head still deterministically fails the existing legacy toggle-column test, so it is not merge-ready until the behavior or compatibility contract is reconciled.

Check name Status Explanation Resolution
Linked Issues check ⚠️ Warning The slot-based placement addresses reachability, but the changes remove the existing column behavior and do not clearly provide the requested preservation option or a clearer Columns label/icon. Provide an option to preserve column rendering, and use a clearly identifiable Columns label or columns icon as requested by issue #177.
Docstring Coverage ⚠️ Warning Docstring coverage is 11.11% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Out of Scope Changes check ✅ Passed The implementation, styling, version update, and test changes all support the column-toggle placement and presentation changes described in issue #177.
Description Check ✅ Passed Check skipped - CodeRabbit’s high-level summary is enabled.
Title check ✅ Passed The title clearly identifies the two main changes: moving the column toggle into a slot and replacing its icon.

In `@src/main/java/com/flowingcode/vaadin/addons/gridhelpers/GridHelper.java`:
- Around line 365-367: Update GridHelperTest.testMenuToggleColumn to stop
asserting that the deprecated GridHelper.isMenuToggleColumn returns true after
setColumnToggleVisible(true); remove that legacy column assertion or replace it
with a slot-based UI assertion.

In `@src/main/resources/META-INF/frontend/fcGridHelper/connector.js`:
- Around line 32-34: Update the slot initialization in GridHelper.onAttach’s
initLazy flow to first check grid.shadowRoot for an existing slot named
fc-column-toggle; create and append the slot only when none exists, making
repeated attachments idempotent.
