## Basic usage

### [Transclusions](../../user-guide/transclusion.md)

There are three regions where you can add your own content using `<div>` elements
with the following names (as with the [Info drawer layout component](info-drawer-layout.component.md)):

-   info-drawer-title
-   info-drawer-buttons
-   info-drawer-content

The tabs are added using one or more `<adf-info-drawer-tab>` elements, which can
have any content you like:

```html
<adf-info-drawer [showHeader]="true" title="Activities" (currentTab)="getActiveTab($event)">
    <div info-drawer-buttons>
        <mat-icon (click)="close()">clear</mat-icon>
    </div>

    <adf-info-drawer-tab label="Activity">
        <mycomponent1></mycomponent1>
        <mycomponent2></mycomponent2>
    </adf-info-drawer-tab>

    <adf-info-drawer-tab label="Details">
        <mycomponent3></mycomponent3>
    </adf-info-drawer-tab>

</adf-info-drawer>
```
