How to change height of List items in libgdx? - android-studio

I use the libgdx widget List. As I understand it, the height of the list item corresponds to the size of the skin font. But I want to change the item height. The use of list.setScaleY() visually gave nothing.
Is it even possible?

Style Grid border in case Grid height is calculated

I have a case which want to get vaadin-grid the maximum height possible in screen.
So, this is easy.
the problem is that despite the vaadin-grid size is ok, the tbody might be shorter than vaadin-grid.
So, whenever there is not enough rows we get empty space.
it would be ok in case had no border. But, because we do use border on the grid, empty space comes up.
Sure can shift the border to thead and tbody and get it looks good, but than the opposite happen cause bottom border will get lost when tbody in longer than vaadin-grid.
Is there a clean way, non dirty js, to distinguish cases? something else?
Thanks
I think you should be able to get at least very close by using the :host([overflow~="bottom"]) state attribute selector. Add/remove the borders based on that. The overflow attribute value changes based on if rows are overflowing the from the bottom of the grid viewport.
The only issue I see is that the border will disappear when the user scrolls to the bottom of the grid.

How to make a vertical slider?

I need a vertical slider similar the standard slider. Is there a way to modify the existing one or do I need to make a new one?
The standard slider would work for me. I just need it to work vertically.
Perhaps I should better clarify my issue with the standard slider.
Yes, I can drag the size of the slider and it will be vertical. The problem is that when you select the value of the slider to show the text gets buried in the low side of the slider when you slide it down all the way. It essentially gets cut off and only shows the top half of the slider value character. I find no way to correct this by moving the shown text up a little so it all shows. I see no way to change text vertical or offset position in the properties setting.
The text settings only allow you to change the text format to right, center and left justify. There is no setting that can move the text up to prevent it from being cut off when the slider is all the way to the lower or down position.
The value text shows ok on the top of the slider. The problem is on the bottom side when you set the slider to be vertical.
It looks like the the show value setting does not place the value on the top layer of the slider and it gets hidden behind something else in the slider object.
LC9, Windows 10
I think I'm understanding your question. If you just resize the horizontal slider control so that the width is narrower than the height, the orientation of the slider control will automatically change to vertical.
Apparently it is a bug in this version of LC. At least in Win which is where I am testing.
Putting the scrollbar vertically cuts the value when it reaches the bottom.
But I found a solution so that it does not cut. Play around with the properties of the font. Such as size and family. In my case it worked fine by lowering the font size by one pixel.
Default: Segoe UI font, size 12
I just set the size to 11 and it doesn't cut anymore.
For what it is worth, I do not see this issue on a Mac. A vertical slider works as advertised. Font size makes no difference.
Are you saying that in the horizontal mode, you do not see this, but when changed to vertical, you do?
Try creating a scrollbar and a text field.
Set the scrollbar's showValue property to false and copy the following script to your scrollbar. Note that your field must be called "scroll value".
on scrollbarDrag pNewPosition
local tLoc
lock screen
# The Current Loc of Field
put the loc of field "scroll value" into tLoc
# New Position of scrollbar
put pNewPosition into field "scroll value"
# New Loc of Field
put the mouseV into the item 2 of tLoc
set the loc of field "scroll value" to tLoc
set the left of field "scroll value" to the right of me
unlock screen
end scrollbarDrag

react-virtualized List component extend height of last row

I have a List component from react-virtualized where I am using the height prop to set its row height. However, the horizontal scrollbar is overlapping with the last row, making it hard to see the text content of the last row. Is there a way to increase the height of the last row so that the horizontal scrollbar doesn't overlap with the text. Doing this dynamically in code messes things up when one is dealing with a dynamic List growing in real-time. I tried using the last-child selector but had no success. Any insight would be appreciated.
The react-virtualized Grid component accounts for horizontal and vertical scrollbar size to avoid this problem. (You can see this on the Grid demo page.) However it's expected that the List component will not scroll horizontally so it will only account for the vertical scrollbar size.
If your UI needs to scroll horizontally, you may have better luck using a 1-column Grid.

How to animate TextView

I have a custom class extending TextView (I used this trick to set my custom font).
I've a ListView and its elements are represented with my custom TextView.
Sometimes happens that the text is too long to fit and it starts a new line. I want to avoid this, so i set android:singleLine=true in the XML of my element layout.
I want to know if it's possible to animate the TextView of an element of the list, so that if such element is selected, it first scrolls its text to the left, till it reaches the end of the text, then scroll back to the right till the beginning.
I tried with marquee but it looks like it can only move in one direction and it's not what i want.

Extjs4, aligning a field right in an anchor layout

I want to place my fields, in an anchor layout, in the right. When I add a field with anchor: '50%' in this layout, it will be displayed like this:
How can I place it in the right.
This anchor layout is not meant for this kind of layout. Use a column or table layout instead.
The only way you could come close to achieving what you want with the anchor layout is to use a pixel based offset, which doesn't make sense since you are using percentages for the width of the fields.
