I just finished working on an update to my app that uses a few tableView widgets.
Everything runs perfectly on the simulator, no errors when I build or anywhere, however when I put it on my iPhone and Android devices the tableView does not appear to be created at all! Nothing happens, it doesn’t appear.
Since it works fine on the simulator, with no errors to look at, I’m not sure how to debug the issue. Is there something special I need to do to get the tableView to work on the actual device?
Here is the code for the lua that holds the tableview:

The scene just pops into place instead of sliding in from the side.
If I comment out the code that builds the tableviews then it transitions properly. I’m guessing there is something wrong with my tableView creation code, but I can’t see it, I’ve done it word for word from the docs.
SO after some helpful advice from the newbie forum I was able to find an error on the divice’s console. Apparently there was something wrong with the colours field. I assumed the ? function in the stack traceback meant the widget function itself. So I did some digging in the widget module and found references to a theme and colours. That was my ah-huh moment, I went back to my main.lua and commented out the widget.setTheme(“widget_theme_ios”) line and boom, it works.
So apparently using the ios theme messed up the tableView on the device… not sure why.

The scene just pops into place instead of sliding in from the side.
If I comment out the code that builds the tableviews then it transitions properly. I’m guessing there is something wrong with my tableView creation code, but I can’t see it, I’ve done it word for word from the docs.
SO after some helpful advice from the newbie forum I was able to find an error on the divice’s console. Apparently there was something wrong with the colours field. I assumed the ? function in the stack traceback meant the widget function itself. So I did some digging in the widget module and found references to a theme and colours. That was my ah-huh moment, I went back to my main.lua and commented out the widget.setTheme(“widget_theme_ios”) line and boom, it works.
So apparently using the ios theme messed up the tableView on the device… not sure why.
