Table (lv_table)¶

Overview¶

Tables, as usual, are built from rows, columns, and cells containing texts.

The Table object is very light weighted because only the texts are stored. No real objects are created for cells but they are just drawn on the fly.

Parts and Styles¶

The main part of the Table is called LV_TABLE_PART_BG. It's a rectangle like background and uses all the typical background style properties.

For the cells there are 4 virtual parts. Every cell has type (1, 2, ... 16) which tells which part's styles to apply on them. The cell parts can be referenced by LV_TABLE_PART_CELL1 + x where x is between 0..15.

The number of cell types can be adjusted in lv_conf.h by LV_TABLE_CELL_STYLE_CNT. By default it's 4. The default 4 cell types' part be referenced with dedicated names too:

LV_TABLE_PART_CELL1
LV_TABLE_PART_CELL2
LV_TABLE_PART_CELL3
LV_TABLE_PART_CELL4

The cells also use all the typical background style properties. If there is a line break (\n) in a cell's content then a horizontal division line will drawn after the line break using the line style properties.

The style of texts in the cells are inherited from the cell parts or the background part.

Usage¶

Rows and Columns¶

To set number of rows and columns use lv_table_set_row_cnt(table, row_cnt) and lv_table_set_col_cnt(table, col_cnt)

Width and Height¶

The width of the columns can be set with lv_table_set_col_width(table, col_id, width). The overall width of the Table object will be set to the sum of columns widths.

The height is calculated automatically from the cell styles (font, padding etc) and the number of rows.

Set cell value¶

The cells can store only texts so numbers needs to be converted to text before displaying them in a table.

lv_table_set_cell_value(table, row, col, "Content"). The text is saved by the table so it can be even a local variable.

Line break can be used in the text like "Value\n60.3".

Align¶

The text alignment in cells can be adjusted individually with lv_table_set_cell_align(table, row, col, LV_LABEL_ALIGN_LEFT/CENTER/RIGHT).

Cell type¶

You can use 4 different cell types. Each has its own style.

Cell types can be used to add different style for example to:

table header
first column
highlight a cell
etc

The type can be selected with lv_table_set_cell_type(table, row, col, type) type can be 1, 2, 3 or 4.

Merge cells¶

Cells can be merged horizontally with lv_table_set_cell_merge_right(table, col, row, true). To merge more adjacent cells apply this function for each cell.

Crop text¶

By default, the texts are word-wrapped to fit into the width of the cell and the height of the cell is set automatically. To disable this and keep the text as it is enable lv_table_set_cell_crop(table, row, col, true).

Scroll¶

The make the Table scrollable place it on a Page
