@techteej Is that really your entire code?

There's a 'title' key you can use ...
The title key works perfectly. I noticed that the text color defaults to black except for the checkbox case where it is blue (or same as check color).
Looking forward to more keys assuming now that you are going to have color, font, etc. to really allow full control.
What about field validation? Popping up a special keyboard is nice, but a delegate function called on each keystroke would nail it. I used to work on named entity extraction in text and you can do a lot with simple regex matching, but you need to run code to do credit card numbers (for the checksum). I think mapping field types to entities would be super cool.

@omz Here is my entire code.
# coding: utf-8 import dialogs import reminders import ui class Data (ui.ListDataSource): def __init__(self, items=None): ui.ListDataSource.__init__(self, items) def tableview_cell_for_row(self, tableview, section, row): cell = ui.TableViewCell() cell.text_label.text = str(self.items[row]) return cell v = ui.load_view('reminders') def button_action(sender): if segment.selected_index == 0: todo = reminders.get_reminders(completed=False) for r in todo: full = r.title reminders_table.data_source = Data(items=[full]) reminders_table.reload() elif segment.selected_index == 1: done = reminders.get_reminders(completed=True) for r in done: full = r.title reminders_table.data_source = Data(items=[full]) reminders_table.reload() def but_action(sender): text = dialogs.text_dialog(title='Name Your Reminder', autocapitalization=ui.AUTOCAPITALIZE_SENTENCES, spellchecking=None) r = reminders.Reminder() r.title = text r.save() segment = v['segmentedcontrol1'] segment.action = button_action reminders_table = v['reminders'] create_button = ui.ButtonItem() create_button.image = ui.Image.named('ionicons-ios7-plus-empty-32') create_button.action = but_action v.right_button_items = [create_button] v.present('sheet')

@techteej Similar to
console
alerts, dialogs don't work from the main UI thread (allowing this would essentially lead to a deadlock). Try decorating yourbut_action
function with@ui.in_background
. -
Found a bug. In the UI Editor when delete enabled is off, you can still delete rows in a table.
-
Will dialogs allow me to create tables with cells (rows and columns)?
This would be most useful, otherwise I don't see an advantage to dialogs over UI.
Pinch to zoom in the UI editor would be nice too, as well as saving UI control presets.

The beta doesn't seem to ask for permission to use Location Services when using the location module for the first time.
I thought it might be for all required permissions, but the Reminders seems to work fine.
Anyone have any ideas on this?

I can't reproduce this. Note however that the "delete enabled" attribute only applies to the default
ListDataSource
that gets created as a convenience when loading aTableView
from a pyui file. If you set a different data source after loading the view, it doesn't have an effect.Will dialogs allow me to create tables with cells (rows and columns)?
This would be most useful, otherwise I don't see an advantage to dialogs over UI.No. For the most part,
dialogs
doesn't really let you do things you couldn't do with theui
module, but things likeform_dialog
would require a lot more code when done withui
directly. There are also some things that you couldn't do otherwise, likedialogs.import_file()
ordialogs.share()
.The beta doesn't seem to ask for permission to use Location Services when using the location module for the first time.
Are you sure that you didn't give permission with the previous version? The beta would inherit those permissions (it's the same app after all).
-
I uninstalled the beta, installed the current App Store version and ran a simple get location script. It prompted for Location permissions and retrieved my location.
I then uninstalled the App Store version, installed the beta again and ran the script.
The script prints out the value of location.get_location(). It is currently printing out
None
in the beta with no prompt to allow access to Location Services. -
Bluetooth LE? Bless you! I'd love to beta test that. Sending email as soon as I track down your email address ;-)

@andymitchhank Hmm, that does sound like a bug indeed. Which version of iOS are you using?
-
8.1 on an iPad 3 and iPhone 6 Plus. Both are having the same issue.
-
@andymitchhank Thanks, I've been able to reproduce the issue. Apparently this has to do with some new requirements for location permissions in iOS 8, looking into it.

I am still working on reproducing an issue that occurs in one of the callbacks in the cb module. What happens is some kind of heap corruption when I call functions in other modules. I was writing some code that used str.append() and getting all kinds of wierd behavior. It looks like either heap corruption or blown stack.
Trouble started when I modified the code trying to print out returned values in a characteristic. I used (print c.value.encode('hex')) in two callbacks and it did not "work". The program just printed nothing but also just returned from the callback and stopped working.
I could use a few hints on how to get a good repro case. I could post my code, but the effect is random and the code needs to access a specific device. Any ideas on how to stress the heap or stack in this callback environment would be appreciated.

And how does one find OMZ's e-mail address? happy to help.

Click on the word "email" in the very first post in this thread... It is a hyperlink.

ui.TableView.row_height seems to always be -1 for me. This is new behavior. I can provide repro code if you need it.
-
Trying to make a table action so when you select a row it checks off the reminder, is this how that logic would work?
def picked(sender): r.title = sender.data_source.items[row] if r.title in reminders.get_reminders(completed=False): print 'good' r.completed = True

Thanks, should be fixed in the build after the next one (already uploaded that).

I can't see where
r
is coming from in that example and why you would set its title when you actually want to set its completion state. -
Sounds great! Just send you an email (or two--sorry)
