Android Question Keep text out of the alignment of the CustomListView tool

[AlfaizDev]

Hi
I am using the CustomListView class
The text in this tool is spread to the parties
I want to keep it from the edges a little
look at the picture
In ListView1 I used this code to do that

ListView1.SingleLineLayout.Label.Width=ListView1.Width-20dip

So what code should I use now?
See problem in the picture

thank you

You are NOT using CustomListView but ListView (which I do not recommend).

Anyway:

ListView1.SingleLineLayout.Label.Gravity = Gravity.

after the dot you will have the usable constants.

I am pretty sure he is using a customlistview class. He was showing you how he did it when he was using listview.
As you recommended he needs to switch to the latest CustomListView library and remove the class module.

I assume you are using the Designer for the CustomListView. If so, did you see the 'Padding' property for the customlistview?

You're right, I read too absently:

In ListView1 I used this code to do that

Using CustomListView class is a mistake. You should use xCustomListView library.

You can change the padding of text items with:

For i = 0 To clv1.Size - 1
    Dim pnl As B4XView = clv1.GetPanel(i)
    If pnl.GetView(0) Is Label Then
        Dim lbl As Label = pnl.GetView(0)
        lbl.Padding = Array As Int(10dip, 0, 10dip, 0)
    End If
Next

Run this code after you added the items.

Thanks to all

I am using the CustomListView class
Because I made some adjustments to it

It works well
Thank you

How to make text alignment =justify
if that's possible

 

[Erel]

Because I made some adjustments to it

99.99% that it was not needed. Which changes have you made?

How to make text alignment =justify

Not so simple as it is not supported by label. You can use PreoptimizedCLV with BBLabel.

 

[AlfaizDev]

99.99% that it was not needed. Which changes have you made?

Things in shape
for example
this is
Hired
lbl.SetBackgroundImage (SetBackgroundImage)
Controls the image, so that the image appears complete throughout
Row

And also this one
lbl.Typeface = MyFont
Specifies the type of font

This is to make the alignment of the text = justify
lbl.Gravity = Bit.Or (Gravity.CENTER, Gravity.FILL)
But it did not work
And maybe others

 

[Erel]

All of these things can be done from your code instead of modifying the class.

 

[AlfaizDev]

I could not do it through the callback
as I want
So it worked


And also another matter
It is when I use the class elsewhere
Be ready
As I want

In the end, each one has his own way
And the novice is not like a professional
I am still new

And the novice is not like a professional
I am still new

That's why it is worth listening to my advice
Other things will break. For example when you try to use XUI Views.
Anyway you are of course free to implement it any way you like.

We always benefit from you

See the code that you sent me since I use the CustomListView class
I just added this part.

lbl.Padding = Array As Int (10dip, 0, 10dip, 0)

in a

Private Sub CreateLabel (txt As Object) As B4XView
-------
Return lbl
End Sub

It works
This is what I like about the class
I like to play around with it

thank you very much
