When will the new widgets be available?

#1

Hello,

I had reported an error when trying to use the widgets such as the button and others within the scrollView control and support said they are rewriting the widgets and should be available any day now. That was over two weeks ago and just curious if any of the staff could say if this is coming very soon? Unfortunately I have a few projects on hold waiting for this update.

And I do appreciate the hard work y’all are doing on all of the updates and daily builds!!

This is great news, as we have just released an app that relies heavily on tableviews. Can’t wait to see what the new widgets bring!!! Great work! [import]uid: 179960 topic_id: 35951 reply_id: 142902[/import]

I wish the tableview widget supported multiple columns. Someone replied before one way to make multiple columns in it but looked complicated.

Icy, do you have one column or more?

Hey Warren,

It has multiple columns. Here is the itunes link where you can see what I mean:

I just looked at your app and it looks great along with the multiple columns! How do you set the columns like that? I looked in the documentation just now and do not see anything on how to do this.

Thanks!

You can blame my baby girl being born 5 weeks early (premature) for that delay, totally unexpected. She wasn’t meant to arrive until the 26th of this month.

To echo what Perry said, things are going very well so really soon. Thanks for your patience. [import]uid: 84637 topic_id: 35951 reply_id: 142922[/import]

It’s actually pretty straight forward Warren.

Your rowrender function might look something like this:

local function onRowRender( event ) local row = event.row local rowGroup = event.view local halfh = row.height \*0.5 --add first column row.col1 = display.newText( "Column1: ",50,halfh, native.systemFont, 12 ) row.col1:setReferencePoint( display.CenterLeftReferencePoint ) row.col1.x= 50 row.col1.y = halfh row.col1:setTextColor( 0 ) --add second column row.col2 = display.newText( "Column2: ",150,halfh, native.systemFont, 12 ) row.col2:setReferencePoint( display.CenterLeftReferencePoint ) row.col2.x= 150 row.col2.y = halfh row.col2:setTextColor( 0 ) --add col1 and col2 to the row group rowGroup:insert( row.col1 ) rowGroup:insert( row.col2 ) end [import]uid: 179960 topic_id: 35951 reply_id: 142930[/import]
