_Every help and PR extending abap2UI5 view class with additional properties is welcome!_ If you create a view and you miss a specific property or event of an UI5 control, you can extend the class z2ui5_cl_xml_view. It is an ABAP copy of the UI5 API. Just extend the importing parameters of the method with the additional property by doing the following:

**(1) Check the UI5 API for the UI5 Control you want to extend:** Go to the [UI5 API](https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/#/api) and search for your UI5 Control. (for example "Input")

**(2) Check the properties and events of the UI5 Control:**
Scroll down to see the properties:
image And events:

**(3) Find the property or event you newly want to add: (for instance "showclearicon")**
image
**(4) Open the class z2ui5_cl_xml_view in eclipse and scroll to the method of the control:**
image
**(5) Add the name of the new property in the method definition:**
image (type is always "clike", optional, case is not relevant)
**(6) Add the name of the new property in the method implementation:**

(in this case it is a boolean, so wrap it into the helper method, normally no need for this)
