Angular PrimeNG Panel Custom Icons

Angular PrimeNG is an open-source framework with a rich set of native Angular UI components that are used for great styling and this framework is used to make responsive websites with very much ease. In this article, we will see how to use the Panel Custom Icons Component in Angular PrimeNG.

The Panel Component allows us to make an element containing a header and some content associated with that header. The  Custom Icons provide the other icons to be included in the header section of the panel by specifying the icons selector. Including the .p-panel-header-icon class in the icon can provide a unique icon view.

Syntax:

<p-panel>
    <ng-template pTemplate="icons">
        <button pButton (click)="..."
            class="p-panel-header-icon p-link">
            <span class="..."></span>
        </button>
        <p-menu #menu id="..." [model]="..." 
            [popup]="true">
        </p-menu>
    </ng-template>
</p-panel>
