SAPUI5 add element on top of a VBox












0














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:




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

      2. Remove items from the VBox

      3. Place your new item at first position in the VBox.

      4. 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]);

                      How to change which sound is reproduced for terminal bell?

                      Image
                      3 Recently upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04, and using the terminal is becoming annoying: the new alert sound is a drip ( /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/drip.ogg ), and the previous one is still located at ( /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg ). My issue is that at the gnome-terminal, when autocompleting or pressing left BOTH sounds are reproduced, at the same time. I want to just have ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg active, not both . At the moment I have been only able to reduce the volume of the alerts (but still both are played), or turn the alerts down (but I dislike both "solutions"). gnome-terminal 18.10 teminal-bell share | improve this question ...

                      Can I use Tabulator js library in my java Spring + Thymeleaf project?

                      Image
                      0 I want to add Tabulator js to my java project. I added tabulator.min.js, tabulator.min.css to resources folder. After that added to my html page these dependencies as recommending in readme.md. <link rel="stylesheet" th:href="@{/css/tabulator.min.css}"> <script type="text/javascript" th:src="@{/js/tabulator.min.js}"></script> Now my tables view all elements, that I have in the html page, but not correct.

                      Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

                      Image
                      up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title. I would also like to remove the large "0" in the contents title. Any help appreciated, as always. documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{book} % Packages[![enter image description here][1]][1] usepackage[left=3.5cm, right=3.5cm, top=4.3cm, bottom=4.25cm]{geometry} usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} usepackage{libertine} usepackage[libertine]{newtx...
