I am using the SAPUI5 control GenericTile and added both headerImage and click event. When this icon is clicked, the event handler of the tile is triggered first so that I am not able to react on the icon click itself (which should perform another action of course).

var oGenericTile = new sap.suite.uimons.GenericTile({
                frameType: "TwoByOne",
                header: "My HEader",
                headerImage: "sap-icon://settings",
                tileContent: oTileContent
            });

oGenericTile._oImage.attachPress(function(oEvent) {
                sap.m.MessageToast.show("Icon has been pressed");
                oEvent.cancelBubble();
                oEvent.preventDefault();
            });

            oGenericTile.attachPress(function() {
                sap.m.MessageToast.show("I am always triggered first!!!   :-(");
            });`

Any idea how I can avoid this?

• 1 You need to extend sap.suite.mons.GenericTile with your own control, i.e. my.GenericTile and override my.GenericTile.prototype.onclick/ontapstart method. – Nikolay Nadorichev Commented Jan 28, 2015 at 10:46

you could e.g. also cancel the event on the tile manually in order to avoid this behavior... you'd just need to track whether the icon has been pressed, see a simplified example on JSBin: http://jsbin./daqifomoge/3/edit

Extending existing controls and overriding methods always bears the potential to break things when the original control gets an update from the developers...

Maybe there's a more elegant way to do it, though.
