Android Question Getting the Control Name

[Brad Henderson]

I am new to B4A but am loving it so far. I'm stuck on trying to find which scrollview has issued the cell_click event.
I have 5 scrollviews(with 3 columns) and when any item in any of the scrollviews is clicked I assign a label to the sender. While label.text gives me the contents of that cell I can't find a way to get the name of the scrollview that was clicked.
Any help is greatly appreciated

you should enter a value in the tag element of the scrollview.

then in your label click event you could try something like

Dim l As Label=Sender
log(l.Parent.Tag)

as it is a scrollview you might need to add the tag value to the inner panel.
you'll need to test that so it might be this if added to the scrollview itself

l.Parent.Parent.Tag

Thank You sorex I will give it a try

Tip: you should probably use xCustomListView instead of ScrollView.

Thanks Erel I will have another look at xCustomListView. As an aside I am trying to adapt the TableExample that places a table in a panel within the scrollview.

Almost at where I want it, but just can't find a way to determine from which table/panel/scrollview the cell_click event was initiated.

Erel,
What I am trying to achieve is to display a week of appointments for customers showing 5 separate "views" for each day. Each day will need to be scrollable to fit onto the tablet with landscape view. When these 5 days of appointments are displayed I want to click/tap on one particular entry/customer and start a new activity displaying that customers details. This data is coming from a sqlite database.
Do you think the xCustomlistView is the appropriate resource for this?

Thanks again
Brad

I'm not sure that I understand the required layout. Do you need it to be scrollable both horizontally and vertically? If so then search for ScrollView2D.

Thanks Erel
Just need to scroll vertical on each of the five views. Will look into scrollview2D and xCustomListView
