B4J Question Add pane at runtime

[Nuno Durães]

Hi everyone,
What am I doing wrong when to add a pane to rootpane?
It doesn't appear and logs 0 to with and height.

CSSUtils.SetStyleProperty(p, "-fx-rotate","45" )
      
            
      MainForm.RootPane.AddNode(p,P.Left,P.Top,P.Width,P.Height)
      Log(P.Width & "    " & P.Height)
      P.Visible = True
      'xui.MsgboxAsync("Hello World!", "B4X")
End Sub

Most likely width and height don't settle until the the UI is fully rendered. It's better to use prefWidth and prefHeight

Thank you for your answer.
I did used that options for the size. What is the correct procedure to add pane to any pane at runtime.
Thanks in advance

Where and how do you define and initialize the pane P?

Tip: you should never see Pane, PrefWidth and PrefHeight in your code.

Dim pnl As B4XView = XUI.CreatePanel("pnl")
pnl.SetLayoutAnimated(0, ...) 'not really needed as you should add the panel to the parent at this point.
pnl.Rotation = 45
...

Thanks Erel.
This is for the purpose of my learning:
can I assign mouse events to each panel using the respective tag as a filter in MainForm.RootPane.GetAllViewsRecursive, I mean without having to write a separate method for each panel?
