Components | Acordion
"Accordion" is a component that groups contents in a drop-down menu.
This component is added within the screens by default. (See here), it can also be added inside a row or a pop-up.
You will find this component in the group of "Cataloguer" components.
When creating the "Accordion" component, three "Accordion items" are included by default. Each "Accordion item" is organised in two areas:
- A title.
-
A content area including a sample text. We can include more components within this area.
This component has a complex structure, as it consists of many items with their own specific properties. When configuring this component, we should pay attention and select the right item. We can select items from the breadcrumb trail and from the "Structure" tab.

Setup process
First, we should choose a type of accordion. There are two types available (numeric accordion and non-numeric accordion).
Next steps:
1. When creating this component, three elements are included by default. We can add new "Accordion items" to the "Add" tab, if required.
2. Go to the "Properties" tab and configure the parameters of the accordion.
3. Write a title for each item included in the accordion.
4. Select the content area within the "Accordion item" and configure its content. A sample text is added by default, but we can add other components from the "Add" tab.
