list of widget types

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

Hi,

Is there a list of all known widget types (the values found in a widget table, with the “tag” (index) of “_widgetType”)?

I’m writing some generic table formatting/dumping code, and it would be nice to know what types

of widgets are possible, and possibly add _widgetType specific code to handle some of them.

I’ve gotten a good start from the CoronaSDK-APIDOC-2017-3068 file created by Sergey and Paul.

BTW, I think the newTableView widget was clearly written by a British American … it uses

both “colour” and “color” internally :slight_smile:

I’m not sure if this is still a match for the version embedded in Corona, but this is what I use if I need to customise widgets. The widgetLibrary folder contains the different widgets:

https://github.com/coronalabs/framework-widget

P.S. You have no idea how much easier my life would be if :setFillColour() was a valid call. I’m used to it now, but occasionally I’ll still add a u in there…

thanks, Alan!
