Titanium.UI.View

# Overview

Android	iOS

Use the Titanium.UI.createListView method or <ListView> Alloy element to create a ListView.

A ListView object is a container for Titanium.UI.ListSection objects that are, in turn, containers for Titanium.UI.ListItem objects. This is easily visualized as an Alloy view:

<Alloy>
    <ListView id="list">
        <ListSection>
            <ListItem title="List item 1"></ListItem>
            <ListItem title="List item 2"></ListItem>
            <ListItem title="List item 3"></ListItem>
        </ListSection>
    </ListView>
</Alloy>

For more instructions and examples of using ListView, refer to the ListViews guide (opens new window).

# Creating a List

To create a ListView object using JavaScript, pass an array of ListDataItem objects to the list section's Titanium.UI.ListSection.items property, which creates and adds each array element as a row to a single Titanium.UI.ListSection. Use the ListView's Titanium.UI.ListView.sections property to add the section(s) to the list view.

By default, only the image, title and accessoryType of a list data item are displayed in the list. Refer to the next section for using an item template.

See the "List View Sections" example.

# Customizing the List Items

To create a custom list view, you need to define an ItemTemplate and define each view component you want to add. Use the bindId property of the child template to bind a dictionary property in the item data to a child view component.

Map the template to a style name using the Titanium.UI.ListView.templates property, then use the style name to set the Titanium.UI.ListView.defaultItemTemplate property to globally change all item styles or set the ListDataItem.template property when passing in your list data to apply the template to that one list item or to override the globally defined template.

On iOS, you can specify one of the template constants for the ListDataItem.template property or Titanium.UI.ListView.defaultItemTemplate: Titanium.UI.LIST_ITEM_TEMPLATE_CONTACTS, Titanium.UI.LIST_ITEM_TEMPLATE_SETTINGS or Titanium.UI.LIST_ITEM_TEMPLATE_SUBTITLE.

See Titanium.UI.ListItem for a detailed description of creating list items with a custom item template and see the "List View with Custom Item Template" example for a sample.

# List and Table Views

This section describes the differences between the new list view and the old table view.

ListView is analogous to TableView, ListSection is analogous to TableViewSection, and ListItem is analogous to TableViewRow.

Both list view and table view present data to user as a vertically scrolling list of rows. However, list view uses a data-oriented approach versus table view's view-oriented approach.

List view is designed for performance. One side effect of the design is that you cannot directly manipulate the views--add children, set view properties and bind event callbacks--as you can in TableView. Instead, you interact with list items indirectly, using templates and data items. The next subsection describes how to use list items.

# ListItem versus TableViewRow

With TableView, you can directly add rows to a table view using the data property and its accessors. With TableViewRows, you can directly create a row using the Ti.UI.createTableViewRow and customize its styling by setting its view properties. You can add view subcomponents to the row using the add method.

With ListView, you need to explicitly create a ListSection in order to add a ListItem to a ListView. You cannot directly add a ListItem to a ListView. In a TableView, a TableViewRow can be directly added to a TableView because a TableViewSection is implicitly created and added to the TableView.

A ListItem object is not created in the same method as a TableViewRow. A ListItem is created by passing an array of ListDataItem objects to the ListSection.

You cannot add views to a ListItem using the add method, which could be done with a TableViewRow. To add views to a ListItem, you need to define an ItemTemplate, which is bound to a list data item using the template property.

You cannot explicitly set properties or bind events for a ListItem. You have to set them using the properties dictionary of a ListDataItem or ItemTemplate and the events dictionary of the ItemTemplate or ViewTemplate, respectively.

# API Differences

TableViewRow properties: The following properties and their accessors are not available for ListItem: accessibilityLabel, className, editable, hasCheck, hasChild, hasDetail, leftImage, moveable and rightImage.
- For hasCheck, hasChild, and hasDetail, use the accessoryType property.
- For leftImage and rightImage, use the image property or create a custom item template.
TableViewRow methods: ListItem does not support any methods. Adding views and binding event callbacks are supported through the item template.
TableViewSection properties: The following properties and their accessors are not supported by ListSection: rows and rowCount.
- For rows, use the items property.
- For rowCount, use the itemCount property. (Not yet implemented.)
TableViewSection methods: The following methods are not supported by ListSection: add, remove and rowAtIndex.
- For rowAtIndex, use the getItemAt method.
- For add and remove, use the other ListSection methods to manipulate the ListItem objects in the ListSection.
TableView properties: The data property and its accessors are not available for ListView. Use the sections property to set the ListSections for a ListView. You cannot directly add ListItem objects to a ListView.
TableView methods: The following methods are not available to ListView: appendRow, deleteRow, deselectRow, insertRowAfter, insertRowBefore, selectRow, updateRow, scrollToIndex and selectRow.
- For scrollToIndex, use the scrollToItem method.
- For selectRow, use the selectItem method. (Currently implemented only for iOS.)
- For all other row methods, you cannot manipulate ListItems with a ListView. You have to manipulate them with the ListSection they are contained in.

# List and Scroll Views

As a list view inherently scrolls, it creates a very poor user experience when it contains other scrolling views, such as a Titanium.UI.ScrollableView or Titanium.UI.TextArea. Thus, this layout is strongly discouraged.

# TextFields in Lists with SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_PAN (Android)

In order to use Titanium.UI.TextField inside ListView, Titanium.UI.Android.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_PAN must be set to the window that is containing the ListView, otherwise the Titanium.UI.TextField may not be able to gain focus.

When a Titanium.UI.TextField is placed in a row near the bottom of a ListView, in a window that is configured with Titanium.UI.Android.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_PAN, it is expected for the text field to automatically move to a visible position after it is focused and the software keyboard displayed. However, due to a known problem caused by native Android's ListView behavior, the keyboard is likely to completely obscure the text field.

To mitigate this, a ScrollView may be used instead of a list view, as demonstrated in the Titanium.UI.ScrollView, "Scroll View as a Table View", example.

# Editing Support

Editing a ListView through user initiated actions is supported through the following properties.

ListItem properties:
- Titanium.UI.ListItem.canEdit - When this is set to true, it allows the item to be deleted from the ListView through a user initiated action. The item can only be deleted when the ListView is in editing mode. The ListView can enter 'editing' mode either by explicitly setting the Titanium.UI.ListView.editing property to true, or by swiping accross an item whose canEdit property is set to true. When the user deletes the item, a Titanium.UI.ListView.delete event is fired.
- Titanium.UI.ListItem.editActions - When Titanium.UI.ListItem.canEdit is set to true, the default behavior is to allow the item to be deleted. This behavior can be overridden by using the Titanium.UI.ListItem.editActions property of the item. When this property is defined, the user is instead presented with the options as defined by the RowActionType.title property. In this scenario the ListView does not fire a Titanium.UI.ListView.delete event. Instead the Titanium.UI.ListView.editaction event is fired and the developer is free to update the ListView as required. This is supported on Titanium SDK 4.1.0 and later on the iOS platform.
- Titanium.UI.ListItem.canInsert - When this is set to true, it allows the item to insert a new item to the ListView through a user initiated action. A new item can only be inserted when the ListView is in editing mode. The ListView can enter 'editing' mode by explicitly setting the Titanium.UI.ListView.editing property to true. When the user clicks on the '+' sign of the item, an Titanium.UI.ListView.insert event is fired. Note: A new item is not inserted automatically when clicking on the '+' sign to let you decide the way to insert a new item. You can use any inserting method of Titanium.UI.ListSection, for example Titanium.UI.ListSection.insertItemsAt and Titanium.UI.ListSection.appendItems.
- Titanium.UI.ListItem.canMove - When this item is set to true, it allows the item to be moved to a different location within the ListView. The item can only be moved when the ListView is put in editing mode by explicitly setting the Titanium.UI.ListView.editing property to true. When the user moves an item, a Titanium.UI.ListView.move event is fired.
ListView properties:
- Titanium.UI.ListView.editing - Determines if the List View is in a state where items can be deleted or reordered.
- Titanium.UI.ListView.requiresEditingToMove - Determines if the ListView should be able to drag-and-drop without explicitely enabling editing support (like drag bars).
- Titanium.UI.ListView.pruneSectionsOnEdit - When this property is set to true and the user action results in a section having no other items, the section is deleted from the List View. Please note that this property only applies to the sections whose items are being edited.

# Examples

# List View Sections

Creates a list with three sections, each with two rows. Adds two sections to the table before and one after it is rendered.

var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({backgroundColor: 'gray'});
var listView = Ti.UI.createListView();
var sections = [];

var fruitDataSet = [
    {properties: { title: 'Apple'}},
    {properties: { title: 'Banana'}},
];
var fruitSection = Ti.UI.createListSection({ headerTitle: 'Fruits', items: fruitDataSet});
sections.push(fruitSection);

var vegDataSet = [
    {properties: { title: 'Carrots'}},
    {properties: { title: 'Potatoes'}},
];
var vegSection = Ti.UI.createListSection({ headerTitle: 'Vegetables', items: vegDataSet});
sections.push(vegSection);

listView.sections = sections;
win.add(listView);
win.open();

var fishDataSet = [
    {properties: { title: 'Cod'}},
    {properties: { title: 'Haddock'}},
];
var fishSection = Ti.UI.createListSection({ headerTitle: 'Fish', items: fishDataSet});
listView.appendSection(fishSection);

# List View with Custom Item Template

Modifies the previous example to create a list using an item template to customize the view layout.

var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({backgroundColor: 'white'});

// Create a custom template that displays an image on the left,
// then a title next to it with a subtitle below it.
var myTemplate = {
    childTemplates: [
        {                            // Image justified left
            type: 'Ti.UI.ImageView', // Use an image view for the image
            bindId: 'pic',           // Maps to a custom pic property of the item data
            properties: {            // Sets the image view  properties
                width: '50dp', height: '50dp', left: 0
            }
        },
        {                            // Title
            type: 'Ti.UI.Label',     // Use a label for the title
            bindId: 'info',          // Maps to a custom info property of the item data
            properties: {            // Sets the label properties
                color: 'black',
                font: { fontFamily:'Arial', fontSize: '20dp', fontWeight:'bold' },
                left: '60dp', top: 0,
            }
        },
        {                            // Subtitle
            type: 'Ti.UI.Label',     // Use a label for the subtitle
            bindId: 'es_info',       // Maps to a custom es_info property of the item data
            properties: {            // Sets the label properties
                color: 'gray',
                font: { fontFamily:'Arial', fontSize: '14dp' },
                left: '60dp', top: '25dp',
            }
        }
    ]
};

var listView = Ti.UI.createListView({
    // Maps myTemplate dictionary to 'template' string
    templates: { 'template': myTemplate },
    // Use 'template', that is, the myTemplate dict created earlier
    // for all items as long as the template property is not defined for an item.
    defaultItemTemplate: 'template'
});
var sections = [];

var fruitDataSet = [
    // the text property of info maps to the text property of the title label
    // the text property of es_info maps to text property of the subtitle label
    // the image property of pic maps to the image property of the image view
    { info: {text: 'Apple'}, es_info: {text: 'Manzana'}, pic: {image: 'apple.png'}},
    { info: {text: 'Banana'}, es_info: {text: 'Banana'}, pic: {image: 'banana.png'}}
];
var fruitSection = Ti.UI.createListSection({ headerTitle: 'Fruits / Frutas', items: fruitDataSet});
sections.push(fruitSection);

var vegDataSet = [
    { info: {text: 'Carrot'}, es_info: {text: 'Zanahoria'}, pic: {image: 'carrot.png'}},
    { info: {text: 'Potato'}, es_info: {text: 'Patata'}, pic: {image: 'potato.png'}}
];
var vegSection = Ti.UI.createListSection({ headerTitle: 'Vegetables / Verduras', items: vegDataSet});
sections.push(vegSection);

var grainDataSet = [
    { info: {text: 'Corn'}, es_info: {text: 'Maiz'}, pic: {image: 'corn.png'}},
    { info: {text: 'Rice'}, es_info: {text: 'Arroz'}, pic: {image: 'rice.png'}}
];
var grainSection = Ti.UI.createListSection({ headerTitle: 'Grains / Granos', items: grainDataSet});
sections.push(grainSection);

listView.sections = sections;
win.add(listView);
win.open();

# List View with a pullView

This sample shows how the Titanium.UI.ListView.pullView property could be utilized along with the Titanium.UI.ListView.pull and Titanium.UI.ListView.pullend events to create a refresh control.

var win = Ti.UI.createWindow();
var listView = Ti.UI.createListView({height:'90%', top:0});
var sections = [];

# Alloy example of ListView properties

Supported in Alloy 1.3.0 and later.

In Alloy, ListView's searchView, headerView, footerView, and pullView properties may be declared as XML elements inline with the ListView element. The example below demonstrates how to use searchView, headerView and footerView.

<Alloy>
    <Window fullscreen="true">
        <ListView>
            <!-- Sets ListView's searchView property.
                  For Android, you can also do <SearchView platform="android" />

# Properties

# accessibilityDisableLongPress CREATION ONLY

Availability

12.4.0

accessibilityDisableLongPress :Boolean

Boolean value to remove the long press notification for the device's accessibility service.

Will disable the "double tap and hold for long press" message when selecting an item.

Default: true

# accessibilityHidden

Availability

3.1.0

9.2.0

accessibilityHidden :Boolean

Whether the view should be "hidden" from (i.e., ignored by) the accessibility service.

On iOS this is a direct analog of the accessibilityElementsHidden property defined in the UIAccessibility Protocol.

On Android, setting accessibilityHidden calls the native View.setImportantForAccessibility method. The native method is only available in Android 4.1 (API level 16/Jelly Bean) and later; if this property is specified on earlier versions of Android, it is ignored.

Default: false

# accessibilityHint

Availability

3.1.0

9.2.0

accessibilityHint :String

Briefly describes what performing an action (such as a click) on the view will do.

On iOS this is a direct analog of the accessibilityHint property defined in the UIAccessibility Protocol. On Android, it is concatenated together with accessibilityLabel and accessibilityValue in the order: accessibilityLabel, accessibilityValue, accessibilityHint. The concatenated value is then passed as the argument to the native View.setContentDescription method.

Default: null

# accessibilityLabel

Availability

3.1.0

9.2.0

accessibilityLabel :String

A succint label identifying the view for the device's accessibility service.

On iOS this is a direct analog of the accessibilityLabel property defined in the UIAccessibility Protocol. On Android, it is concatenated together with accessibilityValue and accessibilityHint in the order: accessibilityLabel, accessibilityValue, accessibilityHint. The concatenated value is then passed as the argument to the native View.setContentDescription method. Defaults to Title or label of the control.

# accessibilityValue

Availability

3.1.0

9.2.0

accessibilityValue :String

A string describing the value (if any) of the view for the device's accessibility service.

On iOS this is a direct analog of the accessibilityValue property defined in the UIAccessibility Protocol.

10.1.0

8.2.0

9.2.0

allowsMultipleSelectionInteraction :Boolean

Allows a two-finger pan gesture to automatically transition the table view into editing mode and start selecting rows.

Setting this property to true allows the user to start selecting multiple contiguous rows via a two-finger pan gesture. If the table view is already in editing mode, the user can also select multiple rows via a one-finger pan gesture along the edge of the table that contains editing controls (checkboxes). In order to support this behavior, you must also set allowsMultipleSelectionDuringEditing to true. Once user interaction stops the itemsselected event is fired.

Default: false

# allowsSelection

Availability

3.1.0

9.2.0

allowsSelection :Boolean

Determines whether this item can be selected.

Set to false to prevent the item from being selected.

On iOS, even if this property is set to false, you can interact with the detail disclosure accessory (accessoryType set to LIST_ACCESSORY_TYPE_DETAIL) and any child templates that are controls, such as a button, slider, etc.

Default: true

# allowsSelectionDuringEditing

# backgroundGradient

Availability

3.1.0

9.2.0

backgroundGradient :Gradient

A background gradient for the view.

A gradient can be defined as either linear or radial. A linear gradient varies continuously along a line between the startPoint and endPoint.

A radial gradient is interpolated between two circles, defined by startPoint and startRadius and endPoint and endRadius respectively.

The start points, end points and radius values can be defined in device units, in the view's coordinates, or as percentages of the view's size. Thus, if a view is 60 x 60, the center point of the view can be specified as:

{ x: 30, y: 30 }

Or:

{ x: '50%', y: '50%' }

When specifying multiple colors, you can specify an offset value for each color, defining how far into the gradient it takes effect. For example, the following color array specifies a gradient that goes from red to blue back to red:

colors: [ { color: 'red', offset: 0.0}, { color: 'blue', offset: 0.25 }, { color: 'red', offset: 1.0 } ]

Android's linear gradients ignores backfillStart and backfillEnd, treating them as if they are true. Android's radial gradients ignore the endPoint property. Defaults to no gradient.

# backgroundImage

Availability

3.1.0

9.2.0

backgroundImage :String

Background image for the view, specified as a local file path or URL.

Default behavior when backgroundImage is unspecified depends on the type of view and the platform. For generic views, no image is used. For most controls (buttons, textfields, and so on), platform-specific default images are used.

# backgroundLeftCap

backgroundRepeat :Boolean

Determines whether to tile a background across a view.

Setting this to true makes the set backgroundImage repeat across the view as a series of tiles. The tiling begins in the upper-left corner, where the upper-left corner of the background image is rendered. The image is then tiled to fill the available space of the view.

Note that setting this to true may incur performance penalties for large views or background images, as the tiling must be redone whenever a view is resized.

On iOS, the following views do not currently support tiled backgrounds:

Default: false

# layout

Availability

3.1.0

9.2.0

layout :String

Specifies how the view positions its children. One of: 'composite', 'vertical', or 'horizontal'.

There are three layout options:

composite (or absolute). Default layout. A child view is positioned based on its positioning properties or "pins" (top, bottom, left, right and center). If no positioning properties are specified, the child is centered.

The child is always sized based on its width and height properties, if these are specified. If the child's height or width is not specified explicitly, it may be calculated implicitly from the positioning properties. For example, if both left and center.x are specified, they can be used to calculate the width of the child control.

Because the size and position properties can conflict, there is a specific precedence order for the layout properties. For vertical positioning, the precedence order is: height, top, center.y, bottom.

The following table summarizes the various combinations of properties that can be used for vertical positioning, in order from highest precedence to lowest. (For example, if height, center.y and bottom are all specified, the height and center.y values take precedence.)

Scenario	Behavior
`height` & `top` specified	Child positioned `top` unit from parent's top, using specified `height`; any `center.y` and `bottom` values are ignored.
`height` & `center.y` specified	Child positioned with center at `center.y`, using specified `height`; any `bottom` value is ignored.
`height` & `bottom` specified	Child positioned `bottom` units from parent's bottom, using specified `height`.
`top` & `center.y` specified	Child positioned with top edge `top` units from parent's top and center at `center.y`. Height is determined implicitly; any `bottom` value is ignored.
`top` & `bottom` specified	Child positioned with top edge `top` units from parent's top and bottom edge `bottom` units from parent's bottom. Height is determined implicitly.
Only `top` specified	Child positioned `top` units from parent's top, and uses the default height calculation for the view type.
`center.y` and `bottom` specified	Child positioned with center at `center.y` and bottom edge `bottom` units from parent's bottom. Height is determined implicitly.
Only `center.y` specified	Child positioned with center at `center.y`, and uses the default height calculation for the view type.
Only `bottom` specified	Child positioned with bottom edge `bottom` units from parent's bottom, and uses the default height calculation for the view type.
`height`, `top`, `center.y`, and `bottom` unspecified	Child entered vertically in the parent and uses the default height calculation for the child view type.

Horizontal positioning works like vertical positioning, except that the precedence is width, left, center.x, right.

For complete details on composite layout rules, see Transitioning to the New UI Layout System in the Titanium Mobile Guides.

vertical. Children are laid out vertically from top to bottom. The first child is laid out top units from its parent's bounding box. Each subsequent child is laid out below the previous child. The space between children is equal to the upper child's bottom value plus the lower child's top value.

Each child is positioned horizontally as in the composite layout mode.
horizontal. Horizontal layouts have different behavior depending on whether wrapping is enabled. Wrapping is enabled by default (the horizontalWrap property is true).

With wrapping behavior, the children are laid out horizontally from left to right, in rows. If a child requires more horizontal space than exists in the current row, it is wrapped to a new row. The height of each row is equal to the maximum height of the children in that row.

Wrapping behavior is available on iOS and Android. When the horizontalWrap property is set to true, the first row is placed at the top of the parent view, and successive rows are placed below the first row. Each child is positioned vertically within its row somewhat like composite layout mode. In particular:
- If neither top or bottom is specified, the child is centered in the row.
- If either top or bottom is specified, the child is aligned to either the top or bottom of the row, with the specified amount of padding.
- If both top and bottom is specified for a given child, the properties are both treated as padding.
If the horizontalWrap property is false, the behavior is more equivalent to a vertical layout. Children are laid or horizontally from left to right in a single row. The left and right properties are used as padding between the children, and the top and bottom properties are used to position the children vertically.

Defaults to Composite layout.

# lazyLoadingEnabled

Availability

5.1.0

9.2.0

lazyLoadingEnabled :Boolean

Determines if the list view should use lazy loading to load remote images.

Lazy loading is used to load remote images only if they are in the visible view area. It is enabled by default. If you disable it, images will be loaded even if they are currently not visible. Disabling improves the loading of images, but can also cause trouble in list views having a lot of remote images, because every remote image opens a new HTTP request.

Default: true

# left

Availability

3.1.0

9.2.0

left :Number | String

View's left position, in platform-specific units.

This position is relative to the view's parent. Exact interpretation depends on the parent view's layout property. Can be either a float value or a dimension string (for example, '50%' or '10px').

This is an input property for specifying where the view should be positioned, and does not represent the view's calculated position.

Defaults to undefined.

# lifecycleContainer

Availability
