I an trying to create a breadcrumbs control like this:



I see there is no standard way to do this in B4A, so I presume I need to write it myself.

My question is, how do you create the irregular shaped chevrons without resorting to images. Any suggestions?

why does the click event return the list of crumbs instead of the index of the one clicked?
Click to expand...
BreadCrumb <> random set of buttons.

The buttons represent a parent -> child path. It is like a specific path in a tree.
The last item might not be unique and it is also not more important than the other items above it.
Another advantage of passing a list in the event is that it is very simple to remove the items underneath the current one. It doesn't happen automatically.
B4X: 
B4XBreadCrumb.Items = Crumbs

XUI Views V2.10 released with a new BreadCrumb control:

Click to expand...
@Erel, I have looked at the post and have a few very basic questions:

1. How do I actually get a copy of XUI V2.10?
2. How do I setup the view? I assume I do it through the Designer.
3. Is there a way to programmatically set the color of each chevron? For instance: Level 1 = Red Alpha 255, Level 2 = Red Alpha 220, Level 3 = Red Alpha 200 etc...

Thx your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thx Erel, with the example file managed to get a workable Breadcrumb up and running.

Question: How do you edit a Lib File? I see if I double click on it, it does not open in B4A. And opening from the B4A file menu it is asking for .b4a files.
