# Overview

Android iOS Windows
Android iOS Windows

A TableView object is a container for Titanium.UI.TableViewSection objects that are, in turn, containers for Titanium.UI.TableViewRow objects.

Use the Titanium.UI.createTableView method or <TableView> Alloy element to create a TableView.

Also see the TableViews guide (opens new window).

# Creating Tables

There are few approaches to creating and using TableView object.

The simplest approach is to pass dictionaries of TableViewRow properties, such as backgroundColor, Titanium.UI.TableViewRow.color, and Titanium.UI.TableViewRow.title, to the Titanium.UI.createTableView method, which causes the rows to be implictly created, added to a single Titanium.UI.TableViewSection, and then added to the TableView. Refer to the "Simple Table View with Basic Rows" example.

For more control over the layout of each row, however, Titanium.UI.TableViewRow objects can be created explicitly using the Titanium.UI.createTableViewRow method. Child views, such as Titanium.UI.Label, Titanium.UI.ImageView, and Titanium.UI.Button, may be added to each row. When one or more Titanium.UI.TableViewRow are added to the table view, a single Titanium.UI.TableViewSection is automatically created to hold the rows. See the "Table View with Composite Layout" example.

Lastly, sets of rows may be explicitly created and added to a their own Titanium.UI.TableViewSection objects, which are then added to a TableView, to enable the rows to be organized. Headers and footers titles or views must be configured in order for the sections to be visible.

# Tables and Scroll Views

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

# TextFields in Tables with SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_PAN (Android)

When a Titanium.UI.TextField is placed in a row near the bottom of a TableView, 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 table view, as demonstrated in the Titanium.UI.ScrollView, "Scroll View as a Table View", example.

# Known Issues

There are known issues with the sections property and associated methods added in Release 3.0:

  • On iOS, the first two arguments to the updateSection method are reversed. (TIMOB-12625 (opens new window)). This issue has been addressed in Release 3.3.0 of the Titanium SDK

# Row Editing and Moving Modes

Table views have an editing and a moving mode that may be activated to using their respective Titanium.UI.TableView.editing and Titanium.UI.TableView.moving properties. These allow rows to be deleted or re-ordered by the user, depending on each row's Titanium.UI.TableViewRow.editable and Titanium.UI.TableViewRow.moveable property that are either explicitly set or inherited from the table.

There are two UI controls available for deleting table view rows, depending on the combination of editing and moving modes enabled:

  • "red icon delete" - a circular red icon is displayed on the left-hand side of a row, which reveals a delete button on the right-hand side of that row when clicked.
  • "swipe delete" - without either of the table editing or moving modes enabled, a left or right swipe gesture on a row reveals a delete button on the right-hand side of the row.

Note that because the operating system handles the functionality of the swipe delete, the OS will capture swipe events and not bubble the event to Titanium listeners. As such, if you rely on swipe events, you must not set editing to true on such rows, and simulate the functionality you need.

When editable and moveable properties are set on the table view, they are known as inherited, whereas when set on a row, they are known as explicit. As their resulting behavior may not follow their literal meaning, depending on the combination of editing and moving modes that are enabled, a detailed description of the behavior follows.

With editing:false and moving:true:

  • For red icon delete and swipe delete, inherited and explicit editable properties may be set.
  • Inherited moveable property is always true. Explicit moveable property may be set.

With editing:true and moving:false:

  • For red icon delete and swipe delete, inherited editable property is always true. Explicit editable property may be set.
  • Inherited and explicit moveable properties may be set.

With editing:false and moving: false:

  • For red icon delete, inherited and explicit editable properties always false. For swipe delete, inherited and explicit editable properties may be set.
  • Inherited moveable property is always false.

With editing:true and moving:true:

  • For red icon delete and swipe delete, inherited and explicit editable properties may be set.
  • Inherited moveable property is always true. Explicit moveable property may be set.

# Examples

# Simple Table View

Create a basic table view.

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

var tableData = [ {title: 'Apples'}, {title: 'Bananas'}, {title: 'Carrots'}, {title: 'Potatoes'} ];

var table = Ti.UI.createTableView({
  data: tableData
});
win.add(table);
win.open();

# Table View Sections

Create a table with three sections, each with two rows. Add two sections to the table before and one after it is rendered. This sample only works on Release 3.0 and later.

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

var sectionFruit = Ti.UI.createTableViewSection({ headerTitle: 'Fruit' });
sectionFruit.add(Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({ title: 'Apples' }));
sectionFruit.add(Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({ title: 'Bananas' }));

var sectionVeg = Ti.UI.createTableViewSection({ headerTitle: 'Vegetables' });
sectionVeg.add(Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({ title: 'Carrots' }));
sectionVeg.add(Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({ title: 'Potatoes' }));

var table = Ti.UI.createTableView({
  data: [sectionFruit, sectionVeg]
});

win.add(table);
win.open();

var sectionFish = Ti.UI.createTableViewSection({ headerTitle: 'Fish' });
sectionFish.add(Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({ title: 'Cod' }));
sectionFish.add(Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({ title: 'Haddock' }));

// Prior to Release 3.0, you can only add and remove sections by setting the data property
// table.data = [ sectionFish, sectionFruit, sectionVeg ];
// Due to a known issue, TIMOB-12616, the section access methods and sections
// property should not be used on iOS with Release 3.0.x.
table.insertSectionBefore(0, sectionFish);

# Table View with Composite Layout

Create a table of rows that contain a custom child-view layout.

var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
  backgroundColor: 'black',
  title: 'TableView Demo'
});

// generate random number, used to make each row appear distinct for this example
function randomInt(max){
  return Math.floor(Math.random() * max) + 1;
}

var IMG_BASE = 'images/';
var defaultFontSize = Ti.Platform.name === 'android' ? 16 : 14;

var tableData = [];

for (var i=1; i<=20; i++){
  var row = Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({
    className:'forumEvent', // used to improve table performance
    selectedBackgroundColor:'white',
    rowIndex:i, // custom property, useful for determining the row during events
    height:110
  });

  var imageAvatar = Ti.UI.createImageView({
    image: IMG_BASE + 'custom_tableview/user.png',
    left:10, top:5,
    width:50, height:50
  });
  row.add(imageAvatar);

  var labelUserName = Ti.UI.createLabel({
    color:'#576996',
    font:{fontFamily:'Arial', fontSize:defaultFontSize+6, fontWeight:'bold'},
    text:'Fred Smith ' + i,
    left:70, top: 6,
    width:200, height: 30
  });
  row.add(labelUserName);

  var labelDetails = Ti.UI.createLabel({
    color:'#222',
    font:{fontFamily:'Arial', fontSize:defaultFontSize+2, fontWeight:'normal'},
    text:'Replied to post with id ' + randomInt(1000) + '.',
    left:70, top:44,
    width:360
  });
  row.add(labelDetails);

  var imageCalendar = Ti.UI.createImageView({
    image:IMG_BASE + 'custom_tableview/eventsButton.png',
    left:70, bottom: 2,
    width:32, height: 32
  });
  row.add(imageCalendar);

  var labelDate = Ti.UI.createLabel({
    color:'#999',
    font:{fontFamily:'Arial', fontSize:defaultFontSize, fontWeight:'normal'},
    text:'on ' + randomInt(30) + ' Nov 2012',
    left:105, bottom:10,
    width:200, height:20
  });
  row.add(labelDate);

  tableData.push(row);
}

var tableView = Ti.UI.createTableView({
  backgroundColor:'white',
  data:tableData
});

win.add(tableView);
win.open();

filterAttribute :String

Filter attribute to be used when searching.

On the Android platform, this property can only be set to Titanium-defined properties of the TableViewRow object, such as title. To search text stored in a different attribute, set the title property of the TableViewRow object to the property to be searched. For example:

var label = Ti.UI.createLabel({text: 'Foobar'}),
var row = Ti.UI.createTableViewRow(title: label.text);
row.add(label);

On the iOS platform, this property can be set to any property on the TableViewRow object, including arbitrary properties set on the object, not only Titanium-defined properties.

Note that the filter is not anchored to the beginning of the string. So typing "ha" in the text box will include rows titled 'Harold' and 'Harvard', but also 'Sharon' and 'Jonathan'.

# scrollToTop

Availability
0.8
0.8
9.2.0
scrollToTop(top[, animation]) → void

Scrolls the table to a specific top position where 0 is the topmost y position in the table view.

The behavior of this method is platform-specific.

On Android, the top value is interpreted as a row index that should be scrolled to the top of the screen. The table will not scroll the last row of data higher than the bottom of the screen. If there is less than one screenful of data below the specified row, the table doesn't scroll the specified row all the way to the top. If the table has less than one screenful of data total, it does not scroll at all.

On iOS, the top value is interpreted as a pixel offset between the top of the top row of data and the top of the table view. So a top value of 0 scrolls the list to the top. A positive value scrolls it down, and a negative value scrolls the list up above the first item.

On iOS, specify a TableViewAnimationProperties object with animated set to false to disable the scrolling animation.

Parameters

Name Type Description
top Number

Y position for the top of the table view.

animation TableViewAnimationProperties

Animation properties.

Returns

Type
void

Parameters

Name Type Description
row Number

Row index to select.

Returns

Type
void

# setContentInsets

Availability
2.1.0
9.2.0
setContentInsets(edgeInsets[, options]) → void

Sets this tableview's content insets.

A table view is essentially a scroll view that contains a set of static row views that represents the content. Thus, the setContentInsets method facilitates a margin, or inset, distance between the content and the container scroll view.

Typically used with the headerPullView property.

Parameters

Name Type Description
edgeInsets Padding

Sets the distance that the content view is inset from the enclosing scroll view of the table. For example:

setContentInset({ top: 50, bottom: 10, right: 10, left: 10 }, { animated: true });
options AnimatedWithDurationOptions

Determines whether, and how, the content inset change should be animated.

Note that the default here is equivalent to passing in { animated: false }
