Android Question Customlistview with 2 columns and different heights

[asales]

I saw this post:

Customlistview with 2 or more columns

Is it possible to generate several columns (grid) in one CLV? In normally, I can add one cell (a layout) to the row. But I want to add 2 layouts for same row like below. If anyone know how to do it or have sample code, please let me know. Thank you.

but I want to create a customlistview with 2 columns and different heights.
The cell will adjust according to content.
Is like the image below.

Any tips to make this?
Thanks in advance.

Here's something to try. It doesn't have two columns but it does have several type of views for each row in the custom list view such as images, labels etc. I made two layouts. The first one contains the custom list view.



The second layout is for each row of the custom list view.



Here's how I populated the custom list view with coding.

Sub BuildTheSongListCustomListView
   
    clvSongList.Clear

    ButtonSongDetails.Visible = False
    ButtonClearSong.Visible = False
   
    intCurrentSongSelected = kvs.Get("CurrentSongSelected")

    ' Add 10 items to the list view.
    '-------------------------------
    For intIndex = 0 To 9
       
        ' typValues holds values from a custom type object that can be accessed from the values
        ' parameter of the ItemClick handler of this xCLV.
        '--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        Dim typValues As typSongsListItemValues

        ' Adding items to the list view requires a Panel created in code.
        '----------------------------------------------------------------
        Dim p As B4XView = xui.CreatePanel("")

        ' This is the size for the panel and it will be animated.
        '--------------------------------------------------------
        p.SetLayoutAnimated(0, 0, 0, PanelSongList.Width, 200dip)
       
        p.LoadLayout("SongListCard")

        ' Populate the views with values from the database.
        ' Doing the replace here will make sure unchecked days will not be displayed in the list.
        '----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        LabelSongTitle.Text = kvs.Get("Song" & (intIndex + 1) & "Title")

        LabelSchedule.Text = LTrim(kvs.Get("Song" & (intIndex + 1) & "Schedule"))
        LabelSchedule.Text = LabelSchedule.Text.Replace("100 ", "")
        LabelSchedule.Text = LabelSchedule.Text.Replace("200 ", "")
        LabelSchedule.Text = LabelSchedule.Text.Replace("300 ", "")
        LabelSchedule.Text = LabelSchedule.Text.Replace("400 ", "")
        LabelSchedule.Text = LabelSchedule.Text.Replace("500 ", "")
        LabelSchedule.Text = LabelSchedule.Text.Replace("600 ", "")
        LabelSchedule.Text = LabelSchedule.Text.Replace("700 ", "")
        LabelSchedule.Text = LTrim(LabelSchedule.Text)

        LabelScheduleFromUntil.Text = _
            kvs.Get("Song" & (intIndex + 1) & "ScheduleEnabledFrom") & " To " & _
            kvs.Get("Song" & (intIndex + 1) & "ScheduleEnabledUntil")

        If intIndex + 1 = _
            kvs.Get("CurrentSongSelected") Then

            If kvs.Get("Song" & (intIndex + 1) & "ScheduleIsEnabled") Then
                ImageViewSongScheduleIsEnabled.Bitmap = _
                        LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "light-on-icon.png")
            Else
                ImageViewSongScheduleIsEnabled.Bitmap = _
                        LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "light-off-icon.png")
            End If

            ImageViewSongScheduleIsEnabled.Visible = True
            ImageViewPlayPauseSong.Visible = True
        Else

            ' These are not displayed when the list is built because they will only be displayed
            ' when the user selects a song later.
            '-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            ImageViewSongScheduleIsEnabled.Visible = False
            ImageViewPlayPauseSong.Visible = False
        End If

        ' This is where the item row is added to the list view.
        ' Each list item has a set of Type structure elements associated with it.
        '------------------------------------------------------------------------
        clvSongList.Add(p,typValues)
    Next

    ' Force the last selected or schedulded song to be selected.
    '-----------------------------------------------------------
    If ServiceModule.blnScheduleIsPlayingSong Then
        intCurrentSongSelected = ServiceModule.intSongNumberSelected
    End If

    Sleep(100)
    clvSongList_ItemClick (intCurrentSongSelected - 1, "")
    clvSongList.ScrollToItem(intCurrentSongSelected - 1)
End Sub

These are all of the object declarations used in my app so you can match them up with the coding segments shown above.

    Private Root As B4XView
    Private xui As XUI

    ' These custom types are used for the xCLV click handlers.

You can use two CLVs and make them scroll together: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/double-column-customlistview.115954/post-724715

Last night I found Erel's example in my archives that features the thread request by @asales But when I wanted to put a link to its thread for @asales, I put down this search text in the forum search: scrolling multiple customlistview. After 5 pages, I could not find it, so I gave up. What is Erel's secret in finding the correct thread link so much faster than many of us.

 

[Erel]

There is a secret. There are many scoring features that affect the search results. The thread type (question, tutorial, etc.) is considered and in many cases it is too powerful.
When you know that you are looking for a question then help the search engine and set the prefix:

You will quickly find this one: "Scrool 2 Customlistview together" and my answer will lead you to the "double column customlistview" (you can also see it directly in the search results).

There is another secret: CustomListViews are based on ScrollView and although they are the best choice almost alway, in this case I think just using a ScrollView is more "natural". it is the right View.

I just enter my search query in Google and add b4a to the end. It works like magic

In most cases B4X search engine is better. Try it: https://www.google.com/search?clien...hUKEwiCzuLHrqjuAhWIYsAKHTqrCq0Q4dUDCAw&uact=5
