B4J Library [B4X] [XUI] SD FlexGrid (Table)

Star-Dust · Dec 29, 2018

I created a new library to show a table (or grid) similar to the one in EXCEL.

There are already excellent classes that allow many to accomplish things, such as xCustomListView by @Erel (B4X) and with the FlexibleTable by @klaus (B4A). I wanted to make something slightly different suited to my needs.

WARNING
The use of libraries for personal and / or commercial use is permitted. It is not allowed to modify the sources or change the name of the library. Reverse engineering is not authorized to access the sources for any reason, not even for study or learning reasons.

Explanations:

To get the calculation of the cells that contain a formula I have added Erel's B4XEval to my Library, but as soon as possible I will make it external so that everyone can modify it according to their needs.
To select multiple cells, position yourself on the first cell of those to be selected (the one at the top left) click a shot and then click again and drag your finger to cover all the cells (or area) that you want to select
It is still in beta version, presents problems in large grids.
~~Now only for~~ ~~B4A and B4i~~ Now for B4A,B4i,B4j
In the example to select a group of cells just long click on a cell (not checkbox). In the case of B4J click with the right mouse button

In the future I plan to insert the following methods:

SearchInAllColumn: To search all columns

FilterView: To display only the lines that correspond to certain parameters described in the filter, for example display only the lines where there is a certain text

You're a busy little library creator @Star-Dust

Hello,
I have one doubt in your table.
Is there any feature to Hide columns?

For example, In that table I have one column named as itemnamePK, But I didn't want to show them to customer.
So I want to Hide that one column.

Any suggestion or Help?

Thanks
Praveen

Hello,

Can I able to modify cell value automatically?

For example:
First I just added a single row with two columns, column name is username and password.

B4X:

    Dim row(2) As Object
    row(0) = "Username"
    row(1) = "Password"
    
    if_flexgrid.AddRow(row, False)

And then I have a text field, If I enter some username in the text field and click submit, It will update or modify on the table column automatically.
I just tried this coding but not worked,

B4X:

Private Sub ip_editUsername_TextChanged (Old As String, New As String)
    is_username = New

    if_flexgrid.SetCellValue(1, 1, is_username)       

End Sub

Any suggestion or Help?

Thanks

Coming Soon.

New type of box. List

Star-Dust · Aug 28, 2021

Update 0.21

Add TypeList. Allows you to add a ComboBox type box (Spinner in B4A and Picker in B4i) and select to a list
Added other examples to POST n. 2 To populate the grid from the database, search for a string in a column and to use TypeList in the grid
added SetCellListIndex method to change the position of the selected index

Example TypeList (FG_Sample2)

B4X:

FlexGrid1.ColsName=Array As String("ID","Sel","User","Img","Digit","List")
FlexGrid1.ColsType=Array As Int(FlexGrid1.TypeInt,FlexGrid1.TypeCheck,FlexGrid1.TypeString,FlexGrid1.TypeImage,FlexGrid1.TypeFloat,FlexGrid1.TypeList)

Dim ListItem As String =  "Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,June,Jul"
For i=1 To 10
        FlexGrid1.AddRow(Array As Object(i,b,"User " & i,Null,Rnd(50,1000)/10,ListItem),True)
Next

buongiorno, ora mi dice che manca jcore, sono un pochino imbranato ma sono all'inizio...

Impossibile trovare: C:\Program Files (x86)\Anywhere Software\Basic4android\libraries\jcore.jar

Star-Dust · Sep 3, 2021

imagine you are hearing B4j. jcore is the base library of b4j it is not possible that it is not present otherwise you have to install b4j again.

But if i instead you are using b4a then you have the wrong version of flexGrid. you must use the android version (aSD_FlexGrid)

Star-Dust · Sep 3, 2021

Update B4j version to 0.23 bis

Hello,
I have one column named as "Quantity" and datatype is "Float".
Now, How to check the empty value in the quantity column?

Ex:
If we going to edit the quantity column, Just clear the all values (make empty) and click the "Done" or "Next" button in the keypad.
It Shows the below message in the "Logs" tab:

B4X:

java.lang.NumberFormatException: empty String

How to check the empty value in number format?
In mobile screen, It shows the "Yes or No" message box. If we click yes, Nothing happened. that's ok. But if we click no, it will exit from the application.

Any Suggestion?

Thanks

I guess the problem is related to B4J where you can't select the input type
