A table view row is an individual item in a table, organized into table view sections.
Use the Titanium.UI.createTableViewRow method or <TableViewRow> Alloy element to create
a table view row.
These may be explicitly added to TableViewSection objects, which are applied to a TableView. If a table section is not specified, one will be automatically created.
A row's contents can be as simple as a single line of text, or comprised of a completely customized layout of child views.
Rows may be created using the properties directly available on the TableViewRow object, to
achieve the following:
Alternatively, custom layouts of multiple lines of text, different fonts, and additional
images or controls can be created by adding child views to the row. In this case, the row's
title property should not be set.
As events automatically bubble/propogate to parent views, a listener may be placed on the table view to detect events fired from the rows. The benefit is that it is not necessary to explicitly create a listener for every individual row.
See the TableView description and examples section for more information about creating table rows.
If you are experiencing performance issues on Android when using custom rows, you can try setting the className property. The class name serves as a cue for reusing the underlying views used to display the rows.
A given className value indicates a row with a particular set of child views.
All rows that share a class name must have the same set of children -- for example, the class
name "myCustomRow" could identify a row containing two labels and an image view.
The properties of the child controls may be different. For example, each instance of "myCustomRow" could have a different image and different text on the labels.
Note that className is no longer used on iOS, and is ignored.
The top, left and other positional parameters are not used for their usual purposes, because
the table view row is automatically positioned by its parent.
On Android, these properties are used to position the content (title) inside the row. For example,
setting top to 20 moves the title down from the top of the row.
On iOS, these values have no effect.
Also, note that the selected text color, selectedColor, can only be set on iOS.
On Android, the text color does not change when the row is selected.
A common requirement is to enable the user to interact with table rows using swipe gestures.
As this event is not available for the TableViewRow object, it will not "bubble up" to the
TableView, where a Titanium.UI.TableView.swipe is recognized.
A typical solution is to use a standard view as a container, or wrapper, for all each row's child views, because it recognizes Titanium.UI.View.swipe events and allows them to pass to the table. Each child view should have touch events disabled, so that the container view provides a reliable source for these events. Refer to the "Row Swipe Gestures" example for a demonstration.
For iOS, read the Row Editing and Moving Modes notes on TableView regarding the interactions between edit modes and swipes.
Create a table view row containing a red square view.
var row = Titanium.UI.createTableViewRow();
var view = Titanium.UI.createView({
backgroundColor:'red',
width: 20, height: 20
});
row.add(view);
Create a table of rows. When a row is swiped, output its ID to the log.
var tableData = [];
var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({ backgroundColor: 'white' });
var table = Ti.UI.createTableView({ objName: 'table' });
for (var i = 0; i <= 20; i++){
var row = Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({
className: 'row',
objName: 'row',
touchEnabled: true,
height: 100
});
var enabledWrapperView = Ti.UI.createView({
backgroundColor:'#008FD5',
objName: 'enabledWrapperView',
rowID: i,
width: Ti.UI.FILL, height: '100%'
});
var disabledWrapperView = Ti.UI.createView({
backgroundColor:'#A2E0FF',
objName: 'disabledWrapperView',
touchEnabled: false,
width: 300, height: '80%'
});
enabledWrapperView.add(disabledWrapperView);
var label = Ti.UI.createLabel({
backgroundColor:'#313F48',
color: 'white',
objName: 'label',
text: i,
touchEnabled: false,
left: 0,
width: 200
});
disabledWrapperView.add(label);
row.add(enabledWrapperView);
tableData.push(row);
}
table.setData(tableData);
table.addEventListener('swipe', function(e){
if (e.source && e.source.objName !== 'table'){
Ti.API.info('Row swiped: ' + e.source);
Ti.API.info('Row swiped: ' + e.source.objName);
Ti.API.info('Row ID : ' + e.source.rowID);
}
});
win.add(table);
win.open();

Whether the view should be "hidden" from (i.e., ignored by) the accessibility service.
Requires: Android 4.0 and later iOS 5.0 and later
On iOS this is a direct analog of the accessibilityElementsHidden property defined in the
UIAccessibility
Protocol.
The native property is only available in iOS 5.0 and later; if
accessibilityHidden is specified on earlier versions of iOS, it is ignored.
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
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:
A succint label associated with the table row for the device's accessibility service.
See Titanium.UI.View.accessibilityLabel description.
Default: Title or label of the control.
Overrides: Titanium.UI.View.accessibilityLabel
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.
On Android, it is concatenated together with
accessibilityLabel and accessibilityHint in the order: accessibilityLabel,
accessibilityValue, accessibilityHint. The concatenated value is then passed as the
argument to the native View.setContentDescription method.
Default: State or value of the control.
Coordinate of the view about which to pivot an animation.
Used on iOS only. For Android, use Titanium.UI.Animation.anchorPoint.
Anchor point is specified as a fraction of the view's size. For example, {0, 0} is at
the view's top-left corner, {0.5, 0.5} at its center and {1, 1} at its bottom-right
corner.
See the "Using an anchorPoint" example in Titanium.UI.Animation for a demonstration.
Default: Center of this view.
Current position of the view during an animation.
Current position of the view during an animation.
The name of the API that this proxy corresponds to.
The name of the API that this proxy corresponds to.
The value of this property is the fully qualified name of the API. For example, Button
returns Ti.UI.Button.
Background color of the view, as a color name or hex triplet.
For information about color values, see the "Colors" section of Titanium.UI.
Default: Transparent
Disabled background color of the view, as a color name or hex triplet.
For information about color values, see the "Colors" section of Titanium.UI.
Default: Same as the normal background color of this view.
Disabled background image for the view, specified as a local file path or URL.
Default: If `backgroundDisabledImage` is undefined, and the normal background image `backgroundImage` is set, the normal image is used when this view is disabled.
Focused background color of the view, as a color name or hex triplet.
For information about color values, see the "Colors" section of Titanium.UI.
For normal views, the focused color is only used if focusable is true.
Default: Same as the normal background color of this view.
Focused background image for the view, specified as a local file path or URL.
For normal views, the focused background is only used if focusable is true.
Default: If `backgroundFocusedImage` is undefined, and the normal background image `backgroundImage` is set, the normal image is used when this view is focused.
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 and 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.
The following code excerpt creates two views, one with a linear gradient and one with a radial gradient.
var win1 = Titanium.UI.createWindow({
title:'Tab 1',
backgroundColor:'#fff',
layout: 'vertical'
});
var radialGradient = Ti.UI.createView({
top: 10,
width: 100,
height: 100,
backgroundGradient: {
type: 'radial',
startPoint: { x: 50, y: 50 },
endPoint: { x: 50, y: 50 },
colors: [ 'red', 'blue'],
startRadius: 50,
endRadius: 0,
backfillStart: true
}
});
var linearGradient = Ti.UI.createView({
top: 10,
width: 100,
height: 100,
backgroundGradient: {
type: 'linear',
startPoint: { x: '0%', y: '50%' },
endPoint: { x: '100%', y: '50%' },
colors: [ { color: 'red', offset: 0.0}, { color: 'blue', offset: 0.25 }, { color: 'red', offset: 1.0 } ],
}
});
win1.add(radialGradient);
win1.add(linearGradient);
win1.open();
Default: No gradient
Background image for the view, specified as a local file path or URL.
Default: 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, text fields, and so on), platform-specific default images are used.
Size of the left end cap.
See the section on backgroundLeftCap and backgroundTopCap behavior on iOS in Titanium.UI.View.
Default: 0
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
Selected background color of the view, as a color name or hex triplet.
For information about color values, see the "Colors" section of Titanium.UI.
focusable must be true for normal views.
Default: Background color of this view.
Selected background image url for the view, specified as a local file path or URL.
For normal views, the selected background is only used if focusable is true.
Default: If `backgroundSelectedImage` is undefined, and the normal background image `backgroundImage` is set, the normal image is used when this view is selected.
Size of the top end cap.
See the section on backgroundLeftCap and backgroundTopCap behavior on iOS in Titanium.UI.View.
Default: 0
Border color of the view, as a color name or hex triplet.
For information about color values, see the "Colors" section of Titanium.UI.
Default: Same as the normal background color of this view (Android), black (iOS).
Radius for the rounded corners of the view's border.
Each corner is rounded using an arc of a circle.
Default: 0
Border width of the view.
If borderColor is set without borderWidth, this value will be changed to 1 of the unit declared as 'ti.ui.defaultunit' in tiapp.xml descriptor.
Default: 0
View's bottom position, in platform-specific units.
View's bottom 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.
Indicates if the proxy will bubble an event to its parent.
Some proxies (most commonly views) have a relationship to other proxies, often established by the add() method. For example, for a button added to a window, a click event on the button would bubble up to the window. Other common parents are table sections to their rows, table views to their sections, and scrollable views to their views. Set this property to false to disable the bubbling to the proxy's parent.
Default: true
View's center position, in the parent view's coordinates.
View's center position, in the parent view's coordinates.
This is an input property for specifying where the view should be positioned, and does not represent the view's calculated position.
Array of this view's child views.
Array of this view's child views.
Class name for the row.
Class name for the row.
A class name represents a unique row layout.
A table view row must have a unique class name if the row layout is unique. However, use the same name for rows that have the same structural layout (even if the content is different) to provide maximum rendering performance.
For example, if some rows include images and some rows do not, you would have two class names, one for image rows and one for plain rows.
This property exists on iOS, but is ignored.
View's clipping behavior.
Setting this to Titanium.UI.iOS.CLIP_MODE_ENABLED enforces all child views to be clipped to this views bounds. Setting this to Titanium.UI.iOS.CLIP_MODE_DISABLED allows child views to be drawn outside the bounds of this view. When set to Titanium.UI.iOS.CLIP_MODE_DEFAULT or when this property is not set, clipping behavior is inferred. See section on iOS Clipping Behavior in Titanium.UI.View.
Default: Undefined. Behaves as if set to Titanium.UI.iOS.CLIP_MODE_DEFAULT.
Default text color of the row when not selected, as a color name or hex triplet.
Default text color of the row when not selected, as a color name or hex triplet.
For information about color values, see the "Colors" section of Titanium.UI.
On Android, the default text color is black if the background color is closer to white
otherwise the default text color is white also selectedColor is not supported
so the text is always displayed in this color.
Text to display on the delete button when editable is enabled
Text to display on the delete button when editable is enabled
When editable is enabled on the TableViewRow, use this property to change the title of the delete button.
Determines the rows' editable behavior, which allows them to be deleted by the user when the
table is in editing or moving mode.
If this property is not explicitly set, it will return undefined and the row's editable
behavior will be determined by its parent table's editable
property.
See the Titanium.UI.TableView description section for a full explanation of the TableView's
row editing and moving modes.
If you want to change the title of the delete button, use the [deleteButtonTitle](Titanium.UI.TableViewRow.deleteButtonTitle] property
Base elevation of the view relative to its parent in pixels.
Requires: Android 5 and later
The elevation of a view determines the appearance of its shadow. Higher elevations produce larger and softer shadows.
Note: The elevation property only works on Titanium.UI.View objects.
Many Android components have a default elevation that cannot be modified.
For more information, see
Google design guidelines: Elevation and shadows.
Whether view should be focusable while navigating with the trackball.
Default: false
Determines whether a system-provided checkmark is displayed on the right-hand side of the row.
Default: false
Determines whether a system-provided arrow is displayed on the right-hand side of the row.
The hasChild flag is used to indicate to the user that clicking on the row displays more
detailed information.
On iOS, this is specifically used when clicking on the row navigates to the next table view in a heirarchy of table views.
Default: false
Determines whether a system-provided detail disclosure button is displayed on the right-hand side of the row.
The hasDetail flag is used to indicate to the user that more details are
available on the row.
Specifically on iOS the detail disclosure button indicates that clicking on the row results in a detail view of that item.
The detail property in the click event is set to true if the click occurred on
the detail button itself, false if the click occurs anywhere else in the row.
For rows that have hasDetail set to false, the detail flag is always false.
Default: false
The header title of the row.
The header title of the row.
The header property is used to assign a header title to a row. It has the same effect as setting
the headerTitle property of a Titanium.UI.TableViewSection.
View height, in platform-specific units.
View height, in platform-specific units.
Defaults to: If undefined, defaults to either Titanium.UI.FILL or Titanium.UI.SIZE depending on the view. See "View Types and Default Layout Behavior" in Transitioning to the New UI Layout System.
Can be either a float value or a dimension string (for example, '50%' or '40dp'). Can also be one of the following special values:
SIZE or
FILL constants if it is necessary to set the view's behavior explicitly.This is an input property for specifying the view's height dimension. To determine the view's size once rendered, use the rect or size properties.
This API can be assigned the following constants:
Determines whether the layout has wrapping behavior.
For more information, see the discussion of horizontal layout mode in the description of the layout property.
Default: true
Indention level for the row.
Indentation values greater than 0 indent the row text.
Default: 0
Determines whether to keep the device screen on.
When true the screen will not power down. Note: enabling this feature will use more
power, thereby adversely affecting run time when on battery.
Default: false
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 centered 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 (Release 2.1.0 and later).
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:
top or bottom is specified, the child is centered in the
row.top or bottom is specified, the child is aligned to either
the top or bottom of the row, with the specified amount of padding.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.
On Android and iOS prior to Release
2.1.0, the horizontal layout always wraps and the horizontalWrap property is not supported.
Default: Composite layout
View's left position, in platform-specific units.
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.
Image to render in the left image area of the row, specified as a local path or URL.
Image to render in the left image area of the row, specified as a local path or URL.
The Window or TabGroup whose Activity lifecycle should be triggered on the proxy.
The Window or TabGroup whose Activity lifecycle should be triggered on the proxy.
If this property is set to a Window or TabGroup, then the corresponding Activity lifecycle event callbacks will also be called on the proxy. Proxies that require the activity lifecycle will need this property set to the appropriate containing Window or TabGroup.
Determines the rows' moveable behavior, which allows them to be re-ordered by the user when
the table is in editing or moving mode.
If this property is not explicitly set, it will return undefined and the row's moveable
behavior will be determined by its parent table's moveable
property.
See the Titanium.UI.TableView description section for a full explanation of the TableView's
row editing and moving modes.
Opacity of this view, from 0.0 (transparent) to 1.0 (opaque).
To set the opacity of a row on iOS, specify an aRGB value with the backgroundColor property.
Default: 1.0 (opaque)
Overrides: Titanium.UI.View.opacity
When on, animate call overrides current animation if applicable.
If this property is set to false, the animate call is ignored if the view is currently being animated.
Default: undefined but behaves as false
The preview context used in the 3D-Touch feature "Peek and Pop".
Requires: iOS 9.0 and later
Preview context to present the "Peek and Pop" of a view. Use an configured instance of Titanium.UI.iOS.PreviewContext here.
Note: This property can only be used on devices running iOS9 or later and supporting 3D-Touch. It is ignored on older devices and can manually be checked using Titanium.UI.iOS.forceTouchSupported.
Background color of the wrapper view when this view is used as either Titanium.UI.ListView.pullView or Titanium.UI.TableView.headerPullView.
Default: Undefined. Results in a light grey background color on the wrapper view.
The bounding box of the view relative to its parent, in system units.
The bounding box of the view relative to its parent, in system units.
The view's bounding box is defined by its size and position.
The view's size is rect.width x rect.height. The view's top-left position relative to
its parent is (rect.x , rect.y).
On Android it will also return rect.absoluteX and 'rect.absoluteY' which are relative to
the main window.
The correct values will only be available when layout is complete. To determine when layout is complete, add a listener for the postlayout event.
View's right position, in platform-specific units.
View's right 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.

Although property returns a Dimension dictionary, only the width and height
properties are valid. The position properties--x and y--are always 0.
To find the position and size of the view, use the rect property instead.
The correct values will only be available when layout is complete. To determine when layout is complete, add a listener for the postlayout event.
Determines keyboard behavior when this view is focused.
This API can be assigned the following constants:
Default: Titanium.UI.Android.SOFT_KEYBOARD_DEFAULT_ON_FOCUS
The view's tintColor. This property is applicable on iOS 7 and greater.

Defaults to: If undefined, defaults to either Titanium.UI.FILL or Titanium.UI.SIZE depending on the view. See "View Types and Default Layout Behavior" in Transitioning to the New UI Layout System.
Can be either a float value or a dimension string (for example, '50%' or '40dp'). Can also be one of the following special values:
SIZE or
FILL constants if it is necessary to set the view's behavior explicitly.This is an input property for specifying the view's width dimension. To determine the view's size once rendered, use the rect or size properties.
This API can be assigned the following constants:
Z-index stack order position, relative to other sibling views.
Z-index stack order position, relative to other sibling views.
A view does not have a default z-index value, meaning that it is undefined by default. When this property is explicitly set, regardless of its value, it causes the view to be positioned in front of any sibling that has an undefined z-index.
Adds a child to this view's hierarchy.
The child view is added as the last child in this view's hierarchy.
Although all views inherit from Titanium.UI.View, not all views are capable of containing other views. In particular:
The following views are not intended to act as containers that can hold other views:
Adding children to the these views may be supported on some platforms, but is not guaranteed to work across platforms. Where it is supported, it may not work as expected.
For maximum portability, these views should be treated as if they do not support children.
Instead of adding children to these views, applications can positon other views as
siblings. For example, instead of adding a button as a child of a WebView, you can add
the button to the web view's parent such that it appears on top of the web view.
A few view objects act as special-purpose containers--that is, they only manage
certain types of children, and many of them support a special means of adding
these children, instead of the general add method. These containers include:
ButtonBar and TabbedBar are designed
to hold their own internally-created buttons, assigned by adding strings to the "labels" array.
Views added using the add method are displayed on top of these buttons.
Picker. Can only hold PickerRows and PickerColumns, which
are added using the add method. Adding other types of views to a Picker is not
supported.
TableView is a specialized container for
TableViewSection and TableViewRow objects. These objects must be
added using the properties and methods that TableView provides
for adding and removing sectons and rows.
On some platforms, it is possible to add arbitrary child views to a table view
using the add method. However, this is not guaranteed to work on all platforms,
and in general, should be avoided.
TableViewSection is a specialized container
for TableViewRow objects, which are added using the add method. The add method
on TableViewSection can only be used to add TableViewRow objects.
Toolbar is designed to hold buttons and certain
other controls, added to its items array. Views added using the add method are
displayed on top of the controls in the items array.
The Tab, TabGroup, NavigationWindow and SplitWindow objects are
special containers that manage windows. These are discussed in the
"Top-Level Containers" section.
There are certain top-level containers that are not intended to be added as the children of other views. These top-level containers include Titanium.UI.Window, Titanium.UI.iPad.SplitWindow, Titanium.UI.iOS.NavigationWindow, and Titanium.UI.TabGroup. Other types of views must be added to a top-level container in order to be displayed on screen.
The special containers Titanium.UI.iOS.NavigationWindow,
Titanium.UI.iPad.SplitWindow, Titanium.UI.Tab, and
Titanium.UI.TabGroup manage windows.
These managed windows may be referred to as children of the
container, but they are not added using the add method.
Tab is another kind of special container: it is not itself a top-level container,
but can only be used within a TabGroup. You cannot add a Tab to an arbitrary
container.
View to add to this view's hierarchy.
You may pass an array of views, e.g. view.add([subview1, subview2].
Adds the specified callback as an event listener for the named event.
Name of the event.
Callback function to invoke when the event is fired.
Applies the properties to the proxy.
Properties are supplied as a dictionary. Each key-value pair in the object is applied to the proxy such that myproxy[key] = value.
A dictionary of properties to apply.
Translates a point from this view's coordinate system to another view's coordinate system.
Returns null if either view is not in the view hierarchy.
Keep in mind that views may be removed from the view hierarchy if their window is blurred or if the view is offscreen (such as in some situations with Titanium.UI.ScrollableView).
If this view is a Titanium.UI.ScrollView, the view's x and y offsets are subtracted from the return value.
A point in this view's coordinate system.
If this argument is missing an x or y property, or the properties can not be
converted into numbers, an exception will be raised.
View that specifies the destination coordinate system to convert to. If this argument is not a view, an exception will be raised.
Finishes a batch update of the View's layout properties and schedules a layout pass of the view tree.
deprecated since 3.0.0
Use the <Titanium.Proxy.applyProperties> method to batch-update layout properties.
Since the layout pass scheduled is asynchronous, the rect
and size values may not be available immediately after
finishLayout is called.
To be notified when the layout pass completes, add a listener for the postlayout event.
Fires a synthesized event to any registered listeners.
Name of the event.
A dictionary of keys and values to add to the Titanium.Event object sent to the listeners.
Gets the value of the accessibilityLabel property.
Overrides: Titanium.UI.View.getAccessibilityLabel
Returns the matching view of a given view ID.
The ID of the view that should be returned. Use the id property in your views to
enable it for indexing in this method.
Hides this view.
Animation options for Android. Since Release 5.1.0.
Inserts a view at the specified position in the children array.
Useful if the layout property is set to horizontal or vertical.
Pass an object with the following key-value pairs:
view (Titanium.UI.View): View to insertposition (Number): Position in the children array to
insert the view. If omitted, inserts the view to the end of the array.Removes a child view from this view's hierarchy.
View to remove from this view's hierarchy.
Removes all child views from this view's hierarchy.
Removes the specified callback as an event listener for the named event.
Multiple listeners can be registered for the same event, so the
callback parameter is used to determine which listener to remove.
When adding a listener, you must save a reference to the callback function in order to remove the listener later:
var listener = function() { Ti.API.info("Event listener called."); }
window.addEventListener('click', listener);
To remove the listener, pass in a reference to the callback function:
window.removeEventListener('click', listener);
Name of the event.
Callback function to remove. Must be the same function passed to addEventListener.
Replaces a view at the specified position in the children array.
Useful if the layout property is set to horizontal or vertical.

Starts a batch update of this view's layout properties.
deprecated since 3.0.0
Use the <Titanium.Proxy.applyProperties> method to batch-update layout properties.
To prevent a layout pass each time a property is modified, call startLayout before
changing any properties that may change this view's layout. This initiates a batch update
mode where layout changes are deferred.
Call finishLayout to end batch update mode and trigger a layout pass. For example:
view.startLayout();
view.top = 50;
view.left = 50;
view.finishLayout();
Note that any property changes made during the batch update may be deferred until
finishLayout is called. This may vary somewhat by platform. For example, changing the
text of a label may trigger a layout pass. In iOS, updating the label text is
deferred.
See also: updateLayout, finishLayout, postlayout event.
Returns an image of the rendered view, as a Blob.
The honorScaleFactor method is only supported on iOS.
Function to be invoked upon completion. If non-null, this method will be performed asynchronously. If null, it will be performed immediately.
Determines whether the image is scaled based on scale factor of main screen. (iOS only)
When set to true, image is scale factor is honored. When set to false, the image in the blob has the same dimensions for retina and non-retina devices.
Performs a batch update of all supplied layout properties and schedules a layout pass after they have been updated.
deprecated since 3.0.0
Use the <Titanium.Proxy.applyProperties> method to batch-update layout properties.
This is another way to perform a batch update. The updateLayout method is called with a
dictionary of layout properties to perform the batch update. For example:
view.updateLayout({top:50, left:50});
This is equivalent to the following:
view.startLayout();
view.top = 50;
view.left = 50;
view.finishLayout();
See also: startLayout, finishLayout, postlayout event.
Layout properties to be updated.
Fired when a table row is clicked by the user.
There is a subtle difference between singletap and click events.
A singletap event is generated when the user taps the screen briefly without moving their finger. This gesture will also generate a click event.
However, a click event can also be generated when the user touches, moves their finger, and then removes it from the screen.
On Android, a click event can also be generated by a trackball click.
Indicates whether the detail button was clicked. Only true if row.hasDetail is
true and the detail button was clicked.
Row index.
Table view row object.
Dictionary containing the properties set on the row.
Boolean to indicate if the table is in search mode.
Table view section object, if the clicked row is contained in a section.
X coordinate of the event from the source view's coordinate system.
Y coordinate of the event from the source view's coordinate system.
Source object that fired the event.
Name of the event fired.
True if the event will try to bubble up if possible.
Set to true to stop the event from bubbling.
Overrides: Titanium.UI.View.click
Fired when a hardware key is pressed in the view.
A keypressed event is generated by pressing a hardware key. On Android, this event can only be fired when the property focusable is set to true. On iOS the event is generated only when using Ti.UI.TextArea, Ti.UI.TextField and Ti.UI.SearchBar.
The code for the physical key that was pressed. For more details, see KeyEvent. This API is experimental and subject to change.
Source object that fired the event.
Name of the event fired.
True if the event will try to bubble up if possible.
Set to true to stop the event from bubbling.
Fired when the device detects a long click.
A long click is generated by touching and holding on the touchscreen or holding down the trackball button.
The event occurs before the finger/button is lifted.
A longpress and a longclick can occur together.
As the trackball can fire this event, it is not intended to return the x and y
coordinates of the touch, even when it is generated by the touchscreen.
A longclick blocks a click, meaning that a click event will not fire when a
longclick listener exists.
Source object that fired the event.
Name of the event fired.
True if the event will try to bubble up if possible.
Set to true to stop the event from bubbling.
Fired when a layout cycle is finished.
This event is fired when the view and its ancestors have been laid out. The rect and size values should be usable when this event is fired.
This event is typically triggered by either changing layout properties or by changing the orientation of the device. Note that changing the layout of child views or ancestors can also trigger a relayout of this view.
Note that altering any properties that affect layout from the postlayout callback
may result in an endless loop.
Source object that fired the event.
Name of the event fired.
True if the event will try to bubble up if possible.
Set to true to stop the event from bubbling.
Fired when the device detects a swipe gesture against the view.
Direction of the swipe--either 'left', 'right', 'up', or 'down'.
X coordinate of the event's endpoint from the source view's coordinate system.
Y coordinate of the event's endpoint from the source view's coordinate system.
Source object that fired the event.
Name of the event fired.
True if the event will try to bubble up if possible.
Set to true to stop the event from bubbling.
Fired when a touch gesture is interrupted by the device.
Generated in various circumstances, including an incoming call to allow the UI to clean up state.
On Android and iOS, be aware that a row or table touch event and a table
scroll event cannot occur concurrently. If a table begins
to scroll during a touch event, the appropriate row or table touchcancel event fire
before the scroll event begins.
X coordinate of the event from the source view's coordinate system.
Y coordinate of the event from the source view's coordinate system.
Source object that fired the event.
Name of the event fired.
