B4J Question [B4XPages] How can I move a label in a panel in Root in a B4XPage?

[William Lancee]

Under certain conditions I want to move a label down a bit in B4XPage_Created. The label is defined in designer layout.
It works when I load the layout in Root of the B4XPage.
But when I have a panel in Root and load the layout into the panel...
it appears to adjust the top of label, but when the page is shown and appears, the top is back to the designer specified top.

What am I missing? See super small example attached (B4Pages: B4J)

Add this to your TestMove class.

Private Sub B4XPage_Appear
    Label1.Top = 200
    Sleep(0)  'Add this
End Sub

Actually this also is a solution as soon as you add sleep(0) into the B4XPage_Appear.

@teddybear

I am puzzled 'again'.
Why would a sleep(0) at the end of a sub do anything?

But it does work in my app!
