Slot List | The list of slots currently reparented into the active root. |
Behavior
This component only applies to Facets.
When a Facets is installed in a dashboard, all of the children of a slot containing a AlwaysOnFacetModule are reparented to a Slot outside of the dashboard. This slot is active when the dashboard is closed, otherwise the facet is inactive due to being under an inactive Slot.
Do not manually modify the _targets list, as it is managed during the normal lifetime of the component. Manually modifying the list may cause unexpected behavior.
This will change the hierarchy of the Facets, if you rely on your facet using dynamic variables they may disconnect due to reparenting (many parts of facets are re-parented, be warned).
Avoid putting this above the UIX elements of the Facets, as it will reparent them and they will no longer show up or may break the canvas.
Examples
For creating a taco facet that reports live taco statistics from a WebSockets, and plays an audio clip when a new taco deal is available. In this example the WebSockets and audio output are active sensitive, and will not work when the dashboard is closed without an AlwaysOnFacetModule.

When installed, the facet is pulled apart into the following, the exact hierarchy is prone to change but this is the general structure.
