B4J Question [SOLVED] ScrollPane question - items not visible

[HowardTheDuck]

Hi, I'm trying to populate a ScrollPane with canvases that each have something different drawn on them, like the example below. I'm initializing a canvas, drawing a rectangle on it, then adding it to the scrollpane.

The rectangles are not visible; what am I doing wrong?

#Region Project Attributes
    #MainFormWidth: 600
    #MainFormHeight: 600
#End Region

Sub Process_Globals
    Private fx As JFX
    Private MainForm As Form
    Private ScrollPane1 As ScrollPane
End Sub

Sub AppStart (Form1 As Form, Args() As String)
    MainForm = Form1
    MainForm.RootPane.LoadLayout("Main") 'Load the layout file.
    MainForm.Show
  
    AppInit
End Sub

'Return true to allow the default exceptions handler to handle the uncaught exception.
Sub Application_Error (Error As Exception, StackTrace As String) As Boolean
    Return True
End Sub

Sub AppInit
    ScrollPane1.SetVScrollVisibility("NEVER")
    ScrollPane1.LoadLayout("ScrollPane.bjl",0,0)
    Dim n As Pane = ScrollPane1.InnerNode
    For i = 0 To 100
        Dim cvs As Canvas
        cvs.Initialize("cvs")
        cvs.DrawRect(0,0,20,i,fx.Colors.Cyan,True,0)
        n.AddNode(cvs,i*20,0,-1,-1)
    Next
    n.PrefWidth = (i*20) + 20
End Sub

The "Main" layout file simply contains the ScrollPane ScrollPane1 and nothing more. The ScrollPane.bjl file is blank.


EDIT: My end goal is to create a bar graph which might be wider that the program window, so some type of scrolling is required. If someone has another idea as to how I might accomplish that with a different method I would be interested in hearing it.

It seems as though I need to add the scrollpane in the code rather than with the designer; also, I didn't have the canvas height and width set.

#Region Project Attributes
    #MainFormWidth: 600
    #MainFormHeight: 600
#End Region

Sub Process_Globals
    Private fx As JFX
    Private MainForm As Form
End Sub

Sub AppStart (Form1 As Form, Args() As String)
    MainForm = Form1
    MainForm.RootPane.LoadLayout("Main") 'Load the layout file.
    MainForm.Show
    
    AppInit
End Sub

'Return true to allow the default exceptions handler to handle the uncaught exception.
Sub Application_Error (Error As Exception, StackTrace As String) As Boolean
    Return True
End Sub

Sub AppInit
    Dim ScrollPane1 As ScrollPane
    ScrollPane1.Initialize("ScrollPane1")
    MainForm.RootPane.AddNode(ScrollPane1,50,200,300,150)
    
    ScrollPane1.SetVScrollVisibility("NEVER")
    ScrollPane1.SetHScrollVisibility("ALWAYS")
    Dim n As Pane
    n.Initialize("n")
    
    ScrollPane1.InnerNode = n
    ScrollPane1.InnerNode.SetSize(2000,150)
    
    For i = 0 To 100
        Dim cvs As Canvas
        cvs.Initialize("cvs")
        cvs.Height = 150
        cvs.Width = 20
        cvs.DrawRect(0,0,20,i,fx.Colors.Cyan,True,0)
        n.AddNode(cvs,i*20,0,20,150)
    Next
    n.PrefWidth = (i*20) + 20'Adjust the height of the innernode pane
End Sub
