Eccentricities of Widge Candy ScrollView - do you know the answers?

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

I sent these questions to Widget Candy support but thought I would ask everyone out there also…

These questions pertains to the use of a Widget Candy ScrollView in a composer-based Corona app.

  1. What defines which widgets belong to the scroll group, the parentGroup or group property?
  2. What defines the height of a scrollView and is it in any way effected by the height of a Corona display group?
  3. Should a scrollview be in a corona display group or have a Nil parent?
  4. is there any what to limit the height of a scrollview so that there is not so much “empty space” at the bottom?  I tried setting the height property after all of the elements had been defined but all this did was stretch the scrollview
  5. is there a way to set the y value (relative to the scroll view) so that I can make sure a field is above the keyboard when the user enters data.
  6. in terms of Z index, how does a scrollview interact with a display group that was created before it?  after it?

Thanks
Ken

I suspect that X-pressive, the developer of Widget Candy has quit from the business (or is dead). I haven’t been able to get in contact with him in months and I’ve tried emailing from different accounts.

I have quite a few things myself that I would like him to address…

Which is sad because their widgets are pretty nice, and work great.
