Progressing well with a Corona app im building (my first!), thanks in no small part to this excellent forum. I have another query though…
I have a dynamically generated list (from this example)
http://developer.coronalabs.com/content/list-view-3 which is populated from a table created by a networkRequest. I’ve modified the example so there are some more newText items inside the rows in the list.
I’m setting the values of those text items to a number, received from a call to a web service I’ve written.
When the user presses on the row, a new display group slides in - as per the example.
What I would like to do, is put a couple of nice controls or widgets in that display group, which I can then use to change the values of the two text items on the corresponding row of the list.
For illustration:
row1 value 1: 0 row 1 value2: 3 >
row2 value 1: 1 row 1 value2: 2 >
row3 value 1: 3 row 1 value2: 1 >
Click on a row, and this slides in:
|
|
| value 1: [ ] value 2: [ ]
|
| [done button]
where [ ] is some kind of control, text field, widget, or perhaps even something more “manual” / hands on involving rectangles and newText items.
These changes will be ultimately be passed back to the web service, and the list itself needs to be refreshed… but that should be trivial(! he says!) once the above is working.
There are only 5 choices for setting the values of those numbers to, in HTML i’d use a <select> if that helps!
I would be eternally grateful for any working example or suggestions for pulling this off.
I’m finding the GUI / interface side of Corona for building apps pretty challenging to get “really slick”, whereas the nuts and bolts behind it all have been not so bad!
Thanks,
Chris
Is there any pre-existing widget or control that I can use for this? Perhaps one of the native ones? But then I’m thinking I’ll have issues adding it into the display group… 
I tried to make a single column "picker
