SAPUI5 add element on top of a VBox

I am creating ObjectStatus and Text elements in my controller in order to add them into a VBox element in my view. I do this with the addItem method. Every new element is automatically placed on the very bottom of the VBox. How can I achieve that the new element is added on the top of the VBox instead (above the elements I added before)? Thank you for the help!

You should use:

this.byId("vbox").insertItem(oControl);

instead of:

this.byId("vbox").addItem(oControl);

Set direction property (inherited from FlexBox) of your VBox control to ColumnReverse.

Alternatively, as pointed out by Matthijs, you can use insertItem() instead of addItem(). That would also allow precise placement within the aggregation using the iIndex parameter.

Here's is another suggestion:

You can get all the items of the VBox in an array.

Remove items from the VBox

Place your new item at first position in the VBox.

Add stored VBox items with from the array.

//Add some items initially to the VBox

for (i = 0; i < 4; i++) {

  this.getView().byId("idVBox").addItem(new sap.m.Text({

    text: "SomeText2"

  }));

}



//Get the items of the Vbox

var array = this.getView().byId("idVBox").getItems();



//remove all items

this.getView().byId("idVBox").removeAllItems();



//add your new item as the first item to the VBox

this.getView().byId("idVBox").addItem(new sap.m.Text({

  id: "someOtherid",

  text: "SomeText2New"

}));



//add all the others back

for (i = 0; i < array.length; i++)

  this.getView().byId("idVBox").addItem(array[i]);

Considering the other options already proposed, this requires a lot of unnecessary code.
