UI element list and characteristics, and note taking app.

[Cody Blue]

I have the following few questions and will appreciate your feedback:

• I need to create a list of Select (UI components) whose labels and values are to be mapped by an array via a REST service. The listItem component serves the purpose of listing the element values on the UI, but doesn't give the menu select option. Also I cannot hardcode the number of elements in the list, but the number should be determined by the number of elements that is returned by the rest service. What would you recommend?

• Is there a way for me to adjust the font of labs and values of select and listItem components?

• Finally I was wondering if you know that someone has or have pointers to developing a basic note taking application with appery (ie. render display to input/edit text by user, save the text, and retrieve it when needed).

  Thanks for any input and guidance.

You could use CSS for this.
Someone will return to you with answers to all other questions.

Hello,

You can limit the number of List items in REST. Here is the example for database: http://docs.appery.io/documentation/b...

What do you mean by "if you know that someone has or have pointers to developing a basic note taking application with appery"?

Thanks for the feedback. Actually, I am not interested in limiting the list items, but displaying all of them. My questions pertains to your 'Select' UI component in Appery. What would be the best way to create and display a list of these 'Select components' ? As I mentioned 'labels' and 'values' of these components will be mapped via a REST service.

Regarding the second point, I was checking if anyone has attempted building a note taking application with appery that can be referenced or reused?

Hi,

Select component cannot be generated by mapping an array as a List or Grid.

How would you recommend that I implement this select list in an Appery project if not possible using the existing UI components you have?

I tried executing the code here on onload page event but haven't been successful:

Thanks for your feedback!

Hello!
1) Sorry for misunderstanding. You can map to Select http://docs.appery.io/documentation/u...
2) "building a note taking application" - http://docs.appery.io/tutorials/build...?

Thank you. However, the issue is that in the mapping I need to map an array (and not just a single element) to display 'multiple' select items on UI . It is kind of "list" UI component functionality in Appery, but with the difference that I need select menu options to be available. Please let me know if you have any questions.

I'd appreciate your suggestions in that regard.

Hi,

You could use mobilecheckbox component.
