Hi all,
I need some help.
I am using a pickerwheel in my app to allow people to pick dates. Now I need it so that when they pick a date, it a appears onscreen in like a textbox, or something else.
For example, if you look at the calendar app in iOS, you can pick a date with the picker wheel. When you pick a date it appears onscreen.
This is what I need.
Here is my code:
--Date Picker
local function onButtonRelease( event )
-- set up the pickerWheel's columns
local columnData = {}
columnData[1] = { "January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December" }
columnData[1].alignment = "right"
columnData[1].width = 150
columnData[1].startIndex = monthIndex or 10
columnData[2] = {}
for i=1,31 do
columnData[2][i] = i
end
columnData[2].alignment = "center"
columnData[2].width = 60
columnData[2].startIndex = dayIndex or 25
columnData[3] = {}
for i=1,25 do
columnData[3][i] = i+2011
end
columnData[3].startIndex = yearIndex or 1
-- create pickerWheel widget
local picker = widget.newPickerWheel{
top=970,
font=native.systemFontBold,
columns=columnData,
}
-- onComplete listener for pickerWheel "slide up" transition
local function showDoneButton()
local function onDoneRelease( event )
-- extract selected rows from pickerWheel columns
local pickerValues = picker:getValues()
monthIndex = pickerValues[1].index
dayIndex = pickerValues[2].index
yearIndex = pickerValues[3].index
print( "Chosen date: " .. pickerValues[1].value .. " " .. pickerValues[2].value .. ", " .. pickerValues[3].value )
display.remove( picker )
picker = nil
display.remove( doneButton )
doneButton = nil
end
-- button below is local because of forward declaration defined earlier
doneButton = widget.newButton{
default = "Images/donebtn.png",
over = "Images/donebtn\_over.png",
width = 104,
height = 50,
left = 500,
top = 75,
onRelease = onDoneRelease
}
end
-- slider pickerWheel up into view
transition.to( picker, { time=800, y=740, transition=easing.inOutExpo, onComplete=showDoneButton } )
end
-- create button widget to show pickerWheel
local button = widget.newButton{
label = "Show Picker",
onRelease = onButtonRelease
}
group:insert( button )
button.x = 160
button.y = 300 Thanks in advance!
