Android Question View array in abstract designer.

[Beja]

Hello friends,

I am trying to create array of labels in the abstract designer (not in code).. in VB I used to just
give them the same name and VB creates the indexes, after asking you for confirmation the first time
you give the same name to the second control.
How can I do that in B4A.

Thanks in advance.

I dont understand what exactly you want to do but i think you have to do that by code if you want to get an array of labels. In Designer each view has its own unique name.

but in code you can create a array of labels and place them by code.

If thats not what you want then please explain more details what you want to do

Thanks Manfred, and yes I want to create an array of labels.. I already placed the labels on a panel
in designer and as you said, designer didn't give me the chance to give them the same name.
Now what shall I do? can I draw the labels in designer and create their names in code?
I have many other views in designer so I can't mix designer and code (I think).

You can mix designer views with "code" views.

There are several ways in which you can easily build an array of views from views created with the designer.

If all these labels belong to the same panel and there are no other views in this panel then you can do something like:

Dim labels(Panel1.NumberOfViews) As Label
For i = 0 To Panel1.NumberOfViews - 1
 labels(i) = Panel1.GetView(i)
Next

There are other ways as well to build such an array (or List).
