Hi there,

after a while I started working on my new app again and encountered some

problems I can't solve by myself. I started an app which uses the

strataframe listview which really impresses me because of the wonderful

layout/design-options but I got two problems where I  need some help.

At first I'd like to tell you that the listview is populated by adding item with

the listview.items.add-method.

The first problem is, that I can not navigate with the up- and down-keys

through the list. I had a look at your listview-samples, navigating with up-

and down-key doesn't work there too. Am I doing something wrong or do

I have to implement this by myself. If yes, how is this done?

The second problem ist that I haven't figured out yet how to determine

the position within the list which is currently selected. For example say

that the listview has 15 items, how do I determine the selected item?

I checked all properties and their values in the debugger, but haven't

found a way yet.

Thanks a lot for your help and best regards

Thomas

Hi Edhy,

thanks a lot for your tips which made things a bit clearer for me.

I hadn't realised that stratalistview is a beta-version, which explains to me why such a basic thing like keyboard navigation is not implemented. To implement some keyboard-handling like you suggested seems to be easy but I am getting to the point where I would like to wait for some answer from the SF-Team what seems to be the securest thing. Without knowing what direction the stratalistview might take it is a bit unsafe for me to work with a subclassed control which is in beta. And adding the keyboard-handling does not help me finding out how to navigate within the list. I will surely try a BO, but would definitely prefer to use it in unbound mode. But as this app is just a side-project, I will wait what the SF-Teams will say about keyboard-handling and index-based selecting an item.

Best regards

Thomas

Hey Thomas.

It makes sense, but while that have you considered using the standard StrataFrame ListView?
