Did you add the XUI Views Lib to the lib pane and checked. Example:

 Private lbl As Label   'created in designer

In activity Create:

Dim b4xlbl As B4XView =lbl
    b4xlbl.Text="test"

B4X Views Lib

you mean XUI or XUI Views?

Private lbl As Label 'created in designer

ohu.. you have to create it manually in the designer? can't you decalare only by code?

You can set almost any 'standard' view as a B4XView as shown in post #2.
You can also create a B4XView (equivilant to Panel or Pane) with

Private xpnlCursor As B4XView
xpnlCursor = xui.CreatePanel("xpnlCursor")

 

[Mike1970]

xpnlCursor = xui.CreatePanel("xpnlCursor")

oooooooouuhh okok so this it the intiliaze for the b4xviews! Ok thanks!

There is a conceptual mistake here. B4XView is a cross platform API that sits above the native controls. There is no initialize method because B4XView must wrap a native view. As Klaus wrote it can be any type of view.

Not at all.
This is just a convenient method to create a Panel (B4A / B4i) or a Pane (B4J). Like any other view it can be assigned to a B4XView.
