Table items order?

[DRAK]

I created a remote panel for sending remote codes to my sky stb, works ok.

However do any of you sage coding gods know how to tweak the order of the individual items in my table/remote eg. sky button first, on one line. next Guide, Boxoffice on next etc.
would be cool if i could have a layout that matches the actual sky remote.

Thanks.

You would need to specify the order of the commands rather than use SortLexical(). Since it is a custom order of commands for your remote, you could use CreateArray() to put the names of the commands in the order you want them.

Either that, or name the buttons in a particular way such that they will sort in the order you want them & then use a conditional under the Table's item widget to display the name you want to see rather than the sort-coded name.

Those are my 2 quick thoughts... maybe someone else will have a better idea.

Or don't use a table. Just hand-code the individual items using whatever names you want, in whatever order you want. Then you wouldn't be limited to two columns, but could lay out the buttons the way they are on the remote.

Edit: You can still share the code that handles the button press using attribute variables as parameters to a common referenced action widget.

thanks for your input guys, think i`ll try without a table so i can get the layout i want.
