Android Question B4XTable Page Number Color

[Scantech]

How do i change the B4xTable Page TextColor? I am using appcompat and its black and not what i want.

Put this code in your B4XTable1_DataUpdated sub

B4XTable1.lblNumber.TextColor = xui.Color_Blue

hth
-j

Change it with the designer:

Change it with the designer:

Yes, of course.

I was thinking that it is sometimes advantageous to know how to do it in code.
Indicating last page, end/beginning of file, or something like that.

-j

 

[Scantech]

The reason why i ask is because in runtime it gives me error. Not initialized (lblNumber). I will try the designer

 

[Scantech]

The designer does not have it for page number?

 

[jimmyF]

Apparently not.

Put the code I posted at the end of the Sub I mentioned.

This line as posted by Jimmy in post#2 works:

B4XTable1.lblNumber.TextColor = xui.Color_Blue

But, it does not necessarily have to be in this sub: B4XTable1_DataUpdated sub.
I put it in the Activity_Create and it worked:

I put it in the Activity_Create and it worked

I forgot to mention that I was using the B4XTable in a Class so all my table code is there.

 

[Scantech]

I don't know how you guys got it to work.

Wow i did not see your comment. It only works in B4XTable1_DataUpdated sub. B4Xtable needs improvement. It should work anywhere you call it.

 

[Mahares]

It should work anywhere you call it.

It worked for me in Activity_Create. I cannot explain to you why though.

 

[jimmyF]

It worked for me in Activity_Create. I cannot explain to you why though.

Just curious. Is all your B4XTable code in your activity?
Because that would make sense, I think, that you can set it Activity_Create, after you have initialized your B4XTable in that sub.

It is not possible due to the way nested layouts are loaded.
You need to add Sleep(0) after you load the layout. Another option which covers all cases is to add Wait For B4XTable1_DataUpdated after you set the data. At that point everything will be ready.
