# Action Sheet (ActionSheet)
An action sheet is a dialog box that displays actions a user can take.
> **NOTE**
>
> The APIs of this module are supported since API version 8. Updates will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.
>
> The functionality of this module depends on UI context. This means that the APIs of this module cannot be used where the UI context is unclear. For details, see [UIContext](../js-apis-arkui-UIContext.md#uicontext).
>
> Since API version 10, you can use the [showActionSheet](../js-apis-arkui-UIContext.md#showactionsheet) API in [UIContext](../js-apis-arkui-UIContext.md#uicontext), which ensures that the action sheet is shown in the intended UI instance.

### Example 1: Displaying an Action Sheet
This example demonstrates how to display an action sheet when a button is touched.
```ts
@Entry
@Component
struct ActionSheetExample {
build() {
Flex({ direction: FlexDirection.Column, alignItems: ItemAlign.Center, justifyContent: FlexAlign.Center }) {
Button('Click to Show ActionSheet')
.onClick(() => {
ActionSheet.show ({ // You are advised to use this.getUIContext().showActionSheet().
title: 'ActionSheet title',
subtitle: 'ActionSheet subtitle',
message: 'message',
autoCancel: true,
confirm: {
defaultFocus: true,
value: 'Confirm button',
action: () => {
console.log('Get Alert Dialog handled')
}
},
cancel: () => {
console.log('actionSheet canceled')
},
onWillDismiss:(dismissDialogAction: DismissDialogAction)=> {
console.info("reason=" + JSON.stringify(dismissDialogAction.reason))
console.log("dialog onWillDismiss")
if (dismissDialogAction.reason == DismissReason.PRESS_BACK) {
dismissDialogAction.dismiss()
}
if (dismissDialogAction.reason == DismissReason.TOUCH_OUTSIDE) {
dismissDialogAction.dismiss()
}
},
alignment: DialogAlignment.Bottom,
offset: { dx: 0, dy: -10 },
sheets: [
{
title: 'apples',
action: () => {
console.log('apples')
}
},
{
title: 'bananas',
action: () => {
console.log('bananas')
}
},
{
title: 'pears',
action: () => {
console.log('pears')
}
}
]
})
})
}.width('100%')
.height('100%')
}
}
```
### Example 2: Opening an Action Sheet Outside the Main Window
This example demonstrates how to configure an action sheet to display outside the main window by setting **showInSubWindow** to **true**.
```ts
@Entry
@Component
struct ActionSheetExample {
build() {
Flex({ direction: FlexDirection.Column, alignItems: ItemAlign.Center, justifyContent: FlexAlign.Center }) {
Button('Click to Show ActionSheet')
.onClick(() => {
ActionSheet.show({
title: 'ActionSheet title',
subtitle: 'ActionSheet subtitle',
message: 'message',
autoCancel: true,
showInSubWindow: true,
isModal: true,
confirm: {
defaultFocus: true,
value: 'Confirm button',
action: () => {
console.log('Get Alert Dialog handled')
}
},
cancel: () => {
console.log('actionSheet canceled')
},
onWillDismiss:(dismissDialogAction: DismissDialogAction)=> {
console.info("reason=" + JSON.stringify(dismissDialogAction.reason))
console.log("dialog onWillDismiss")
if (dismissDialogAction.reason == DismissReason.PRESS_BACK) {

}
}
]
})
})
}.width('100%')
.height('100%')
}
}
```
### Example 3: Setting the Action Sheet Animation
This example illustrates how to use the **transition** API to create custom animation effects for the dialog box's appearance and disappearance.
```ts
@Entry
@Component
struct ActionSheetExample {
build() {
Column({ space: 5 }) {
Button('ActionSheet Set Duration')
.onClick(() => {
ActionSheet.show({
title: 'ActionSheet 1',
message: 'Set Animation Duration open 3 second, close 100 ms',
autoCancel: true,
alignment: DialogAlignment.Top,
transition:TransitionEffect.asymmetric(TransitionEffect.OPACITY
.animation({ duration: 3000, curve: Curve.Sharp }).combine(TransitionEffect.scale({x: 1.5, y: 1.5}).animation({duration: 3000, curve: Curve.Sharp})),
TransitionEffect.OPACITY.animation({ duration: 100, curve: Curve.Smooth })
.combine(TransitionEffect.scale({x: 0.5, y: 0.5}).animation({duration: 100, curve: Curve.Smooth}))),
offset: { dx: 0, dy: -20 },
confirm: {
value: 'button',
action: () => {
console.info('Button-clicking callback')
}
},
cancel: () => {
console.info('Closed callbacks')
},
sheets: [
{
title: 'apples',
action: () => {
console.log('apples')
}
},
{
title: 'bananas',
action: () => {
console.log('bananas')
}
},
{
title: 'pears',
action: () => {
console.log('pears')
}
}
]
})
}).backgroundColor(0x317aff).height("88px")
}.width('100%').margin({ top: 5 })
}
}
```
### Example 4: Setting the Action Sheet Style
This example demonstrates how to set styles of an action sheet, including the width, height, background color, and shadow.
```ts
@Entry
@Component
struct ActionSheetExample {
build() {
Flex({ direction: FlexDirection.Column, alignItems: ItemAlign.Center, justifyContent: FlexAlign.Center }) {
Button('Click to Show ActionSheet')
.onClick(() => {

console.info("reason=" + JSON.stringify(dismissDialogAction.reason))
console.log("dialog onWillDismiss")
if (dismissDialogAction.reason == DismissReason.PRESS_BACK) {
dismissDialogAction.dismiss()
}
if (dismissDialogAction.reason == DismissReason.TOUCH_OUTSIDE) {
dismissDialogAction.dismiss()
}
},
alignment: DialogAlignment.Bottom,
offset: { dx: 0, dy: -10 },
sheets: [
{
title: 'apples',

console.log("dialog onWillDismiss")
if (dismissDialogAction.reason == DismissReason.PRESS_BACK) {
dismissDialogAction.dismiss()
}
if (dismissDialogAction.reason == DismissReason.TOUCH_OUTSIDE) {
dismissDialogAction.dismiss()
}
},
alignment: DialogAlignment.Bottom,
offset: { dx: 0, dy: -10 },
