Android Question Quick Clarification -- Spinner and Combo Box

[brianwiz12]

Hello,

Been searching the forums and believe i can implement this design. Want to double check before i dive to far into it

Top of my page will be a drop down IE A, B, C, D, E, F, G ect

Once a letter is chosen

The combo/checkbox will fill with the choices under it IE (A is chosen -- Abby populates --- Click Abby go to that module for the trivia in the program)

No code tried yet. Just want to ensure Spinner/Combox, checklist or radio buttons can handle it

The combo/checkbox will fill with the choices under it

Not sure that I understand. Do you want to create a list with checkboxes? If so then use xCustomListView.

Thank you for the quick response. Will play around with that and come back if needed.

More to come later on the question if needed.

    'These variables can be accessed from all modules.

            Activity.finish
    End Select
End Sub

Sub SpB_ItemClick (Position As Int, Value As Object)
    Select Value

            StartActivity("BloodOil")
            Activity.finish
    End Select
End Sub

---------------------------------
This stinks for growth of the app. So what i want to do is the following

One Spinner/Dropdown for A-Z

Then someone selects A
It will load in a checkbox/button/radiobutton ect everything under A.

Someone Selects B
It will load under that everything in B category

They would then select the show to play the trivia.


I know im long winded sorry. I have been looking at customview examples and so forth and cannot wrap my head around how to customize it.

Updating with code i have so far (Now i have down drop downs for trivia/database related) for some reason im stuck.

#Region  Activity Attributes
    #FullScreen: False
    #IncludeTitle: True
#End Region

Sub Process_Globals
    'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
    'These variables can be accessed from all modules.

End Sub

Sub Globals
    'These global variables will be redeclared each time the activity is created.
    'These variables can only be accessed from this module.
    
    Dim panel1 As Panel
    Dim panel2 As Panel
    Dim button1 As Button
    Dim button2 As Button
    
    Dim spinner1 As Spinner
    
    
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    'Do not forget to load the layout file created with the visual designer. For example:
    'Activity.LoadLayout("Layout1")
    Activity.LoadLayout("trivia2")
    
    spinner1.add("A-Z")
    spinner1.add("Panel1")
    spinner1.add("Panel2")
    spinner1.DropdownTextColor = Colors.White
    spinner1.DropdownBackgroundColor = Colors.Gray
    
End Sub

Sub Activity_Resume

End Sub

Sub Activity_Pause (UserClosed As Boolean)

End Sub

Sub spinner1_ItemClick (Position As Int, Value As Object)
    Select Value
        Case "Panel1"
        panel2.visible = True
        panel1.Visible = False
End Select
End Sub

Sub button1_click
    StartActivity("abbys")
    Activity.finish
End Sub
Sub button2_click
    StartActivity("Newsroom")
    Activity.finish
End Sub
