How To: Table Header

[loup]

Hi guys,

does anyone of you have a good idea of how to get a table header into a ListField (so that the first entry in the listfield is the table header sotospeak).
This there a way to add an only one empty element to the list and then paint over it?

I'd appreciate some help ;o)

I just position a LabelField above the listfield. Put spaces in and play with the header title positions and make the columns of data in the list field line up under the headers. Since you control the graphic pixel location of where the listfield columns are written to, and the width, you can reliable create columns of data under the header row.

Furthermore, if you use two Managers (use all width), put the header row in the top manager and the listfield in the lower manager, playing the the manager styles you should be able to have the top header row anchored while the lower listfield vertically scrolls and leaves the header row always visible.

headerRow.setText("Customer PO Order Ship Fill%");

Good luck,
Eric

Thx,

I came up with a FixedSizeLabelField, where I can decide on the width of the field. I put some of the fields in one Manager and then I got my tableHeader.
But I really like the idea with the two managers, I'll give that a try!
