Class sap.uxap.BreadCrumbsModule: sap/uxap/BreadCrumbs

extends Control

The BreadCrumbs control represents the navigation steps up to the current location in the application and allows the user to quickly navigate to a previous location on the path that got him to the current location. It has two main modes of operation. One is a trail of links followed by separators (when there's enough space for the control to fit on one line), and the other is a dropdown list with the links (when the trail of links wouldn't fit on one line).


Since: 1.30.

The current/last element in the BreadCrumbs path.

Returns:
{sap.m.Text}
getLinks(): sap.m.Link[]
