contentEl missing in 2.0

[nmadhavan_1972@yahoo.com]

Is there any other mechanism to place an HTML element (created outside Ext using my javascript library) inside an Ext Component? Sencha Touch 1.1 provided a contentEl attribute which was useful for me.

I think we missed porting this property when creating the new Component class. We will make sure to add this asap. For now I suggest you add the element to the component using:

var component = Ext.create('Ext.Component', {...config...});
component.innerElement.append(yourContentEl);

Thanks for the quick response. You guys are really awesome.

I was looking for this too, thanks for the hint. I just added

initialize: function() { this.innerElement.append(this.getContentEl()); }

to my panels and set the contentEl in the config.
