1. Make sure to use xCustomListView.
2. You should add them with the designer and use anchors or designer script to set their layout.

I'm creating it with designer and I have issue on setting height and width for that listview row
I used this command :
p.SetLayoutAnimated(0,0,0,60%x,35%x)

But i'm unable to found exact height and width of that designer / view

 

[Erel]

I don't understand anything.

Where is the code that creates the items? Note that it should be 35%y instead of %x.

you can see the height in the designer, i think u do not want use %y
dip give u the same size at any device.

Sub CreateListItem(Item As SinglePassword) As B4XView
    
    Dim p As B4XView = xui.CreatePanel("Row")
    #if B4J
        p.SetLayoutAnimated(0 ,0,0,600,30dip) 'how to use 100%x ???
    #Else If B4A
        p.SetLayoutAnimated(0 ,0,0,100%x,30dip)
    #End If
    p.LoadLayout("Row")
    
    LabelColumn1.Text = Item.Name
    LabelColumn2.Text = Item.User
    LabelColumn3.Text = Item.Mail
    LabelColumn4.Text = Item.Url
    
    Return p
    
End Sub

I want correct percent of x,y to work in any handset properly according to layout

screen shot of my layout

I want exact row height and widht
in my image height is more than and horizontal anchor is not proper

 

[Erel]

This is not needed:

  Dim p As B4XView = xui.CreatePanel("Row")
    #if B4J
        p.SetLayoutAnimated(0 ,0,0,600,30dip) 'how to use 100%x ???
    #Else If B4A
        p.SetLayoutAnimated(0 ,0,0,100%x,30dip)
    #End If

It should be:

p.SetLayoutAnimated(0, 0, 0, clv1.AsView.Width, 30dip)

 

[Kiran Raotole]

can i also use this like :

p.SetLayoutAnimated(0, 0, 0, clv1.AsView.Width, clv1.AsView.Height)

 

[Erel]

Yes. If you want each item height to be the same as the list height.

 

[Kiran Raotole]

No. I want actually used height from top of my that layout designer file,
like my custom listview designer has three label, then I need height upto three label.
Is any command there that give me actual used height

 

[MarkusR]

my custom listview designer has three label, then I need height upto three label.

u can use .top .height property from labels or the variant size you set in the designer.
for a static layout i would drag one element into, size as needed and copy/paste this height.

in your case at static layout the top+height of the last label is your row height.

 

[Erel]

in your case at static layout the top+height of the last label is your row height.

That's true. You need to check the height required and set it.

As a general rule, the layout size is always set by its parent container.

I have a panel in that layout, i used :

    Dim p As B4XView = xui.CreatePanel("")
   p.LoadLayout("m411_listview")
   p.SetLayoutAnimated(0,0,0,100%x,panel1.height)

But it show nothing. also give log Panel size is unknown. Layout may not be loaded correctly.

 

[Erel]

1. You should never load a layout to a panel before the panel size is set.
2. As a general rule, the layout size is always set by its parent container.

Open the m411_listview layout file and calculate its size.

Then set it with:

p.SetLayoutAnimated(0, 0, 0, clv.AsView.Width, 237dip)
p.LoadLayout(...)

Ok its helpful. I'm thinking for direct command without entering manual value.
