Android Question Spinner newbie question....

[kepler]

Good evening,

This is a really newbie question.... But how can I popup a spinner to retrieve info?
As for now, I can only include it in the main view - that's not my pourpose
Kind regards,

Kepler

As for now, I can only include it in the main view

that´s the way the spinner works and is designed in android. When you "open" the spinner then the items will be shown in a POPUP.

Hi,

I thought so... What about InputList? My core lib doesn't have it. Do you know where I can find the latest version for download?

Kind regards,

Kepler

InputList is part of the B4A distribution, no need to download anything.

 

[kepler]

Sorry... I've read it was in the Core lib.
I don't have any option to use InputList in B4A. My Core lib is version 3.80. It seems that the InputList is in a newer version

It is not a library or a view, you have to type it in the IDE, like THIS

 

[kepler]

I must be dumb today.... It's not there...

Kepler

 

[NJDude]

That is because you are doing it wrong, look at the syntax on the example I posted.

 

[kepler]

I'm sorry...I've done as you typed, and still nothing...

I've only mentioned Core library because of this link.

It's version 4.01 - that one has that function. She's a base in B4A.
Mine doesn't...

[DonManfred]

Which version of b4a are you using?
It works fine for me

 

[kepler]

Version 3.82.... It's not there... Damn...

 

[NJDude]

You are doing something wrong my friend.

 

[kepler]

Yes, I am....

In my IDE the choice doesn't appear automatically. Only after I type InputList the reference appears...

Why isn't it automatic?... I am doing some terribly wrong.

Sorry guys...

 

[NJDude]

Dude, you have to type it, I even said that on my reply above.

In the IDE code editor do:
- Ctrl+Space
- Start typing 'in'
