Android Question Use SMM to Display Photos from Assets Folder on an xCLV

[Mahares]

I have 46 photos from 46 png files located in Assets folder that I want to display on an xClv (preoptimized Clv) via SMM four photos per row. I am using Erel’s example #2 as a basis. But all I get is the first 4 photos displayed on each row as shown on the screenshot. Here is the code in: CustomListView1_VisibleRangeChanged
I am not sure I am applying the MediaManager.SetMediaFromFile correctly. Thank you for any help.

Sub CustomListView1_VisibleRangeChanged (FirstIndex As Int, LastIndex As Int)
    For Each i As Int In PCLV.VisibleRangeChanged(FirstIndex, LastIndex)
        Dim item As CLVItem = CustomListView1.GetRawListItem(i)
        Dim pnl As B4XView = xui.CreatePanel("")
        item.Panel.AddView(pnl, 0, 0, item.Panel.Width, item.Panel.Height)
        Dim data As MyImageData = item.Value
        pnl.LoadLayout("item2")
        Dim x As Int
        For x = 0 To 3            
            If data.IndexOfFirstImage + x >= TotalNumberOfImages Then Exit  'VERY IMPORTANT in case # of pictures is not divisible
            Dim s As String =l2.Get(x)
            s=s.SubString2(0, s.LastIndexOf("."))
            pnl.GetView(x).GetView(1).Text = s  'label text
            pnl.GetView(x).Tag = data.IndexOfFirstImage + x 'inside the loop 
            MediaManager.SetMediaFromFile(pnl.GetView(x).GetView(0), File.DirAssets, l2.get(x),"image/png", Null) 'l2 is a list of the files
        Next
    Next
    MediaManager.TrimMediaCache
End Sub

I guess that it should be:

   Dim s As String =l2.Get(data.IndexOfFirstImage + x)

I usually do not like to spoil a good answer by posting after it, but on behalf of all forum members I wish you and all the Jewish members a happy Hanukkah.
By the way, how is SMM able to display a bitmap file when there are no ImageView or B4XImageView in the layout. Is that done internally. You mention in the lib write-up: Images are loaded asynchronously using BitmapsAsync

Thank you!

Worth seeing SMM source code. It is quite sophisticated.
Specifically check SMMViews class. It creates (and reuses) the views based on the media type.

Specifically check SMMViews class

It is sophisticated indeed and looks very powerful. It is hard to extract features you want to use like for instance: B4XImageView1.RoundedImage and many other properties.

It is already implemented. You need to set MediaManager.REQUEST_ROUNDIMAGE: True. See SMM_Example1: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...rk-for-images-videos-and-more.134716/#content
