Titanium.UI.TableViewSection
> Titanium.UI.TableViewSection

A table view section is a container within a table used to organize table view rows.

Use the Titanium.UI.createTableViewSection method or <TableViewSection> Alloy element to create a TableViewSection.

Before the table is rendered, the TableViewSection add method may be used to add TableViewRow objects to a section. After it is rendered, one of the TableView insertRowBefore, insertRowAfter, or appendRow methods must be used instead.

To remove a row from a section after the table is rendered, use the TableView deleteRow method.

In order for a section to be visible, either its headerTitle or headerView property must be configured.

Starting in Release 3.0, you can directly manipulate the sections in a table using the following TableView APIs:

  • To set all sections in a table view at one time, use the TableView sections property.
  • To add an individual section after a table view is rendered, use either the TableView insertSectionBefore or insertSectionAfter method.
  • To add one or more sections to the end of a table view after it is rendered, use the TableView appendSection method.
  • To remove an individual section after a table view is rendered, use the TableView deleteSection method.

Prior to Release 3.0, adding or removing sections individually is not supported. Instead, use the TableView data property to refresh the whole table with a new section layout.

See the description and examples sections of TableView for more details about how to use TableViewSection.

Note: On some platforms, TableViewSection may be implemented as a type of view (that is, an object that inherits from View). However, this is an implementation detail. For portability, you should only use the documented APIs on table view sections.

Indicates if the proxy will bubble an event to its parent. ...

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.

In Alloy, you can use a <HeaderView> element inside a <TableViewSection> element:

<Alloy>
    <TableView filterAttribute="title">
        <SearchBar platform="android,ios"/>
        <TableViewSection>
            <HeaderView>
                <View backgroundColor="#a00" height="50dp"/>
            </HeaderView>
            <FooterView>
                <View backgroundColor="#0a0" height="50dp"/>
            </FooterView>
            <TableViewRow title="Row 1"/>
            <TableViewRow title="Row 2"/>
            <TableViewRow title="Row 3"/>
        </TableViewSection>
    </TableView>
</Alloy>

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.

Methods

Titanium.UI.TableViewSection
( row )
Adds a table view row to this section. ...

Adds a table view row to this section.

Should be called before adding the section to a table. Calling add on a section that's already been added to a table does not update the table.

To add a row to a section after it's been added to a table, call one of the TableView methods, insertRowBefore, insertRowAfter, or appendRow.

On Android, it is possible to update a section by adding or removing rows and then resetting the table view's data property. However, this approach is not portable and is not recommended.

Parameters

Returns

  • void

Returns

( row )
Removes a table view row from this section. ...

Removes a table view row from this section.

Should be called before a section is added to a table. Calling remove on a section that's already been added to a table may throw an exception.

To delete a row once the section is added to a table, use the TableView deleteRow method.

On Android, it is possible to update a section by adding or removing rows and then resetting the table view's data property. However, this approach is not portable and is not recommended.

Parameters

Returns

  • void
Removes the specified callback as an event listener for the named event. ...

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);

Parameters

  • name : String

    Name of the event.

  • callback : Callback<Object>

    Callback function to remove. Must be the same function passed to addEventListener.
