SelectItem Visible Row Count

[willfleury]

Hi,

Basically i am looking for a method equivalent to ListBox.setVisibleRowCount(5) in gwt.. Cant find it.

I want to know how to set the visible row count for SelectItem even if it has no values currently associated with it..

That is i want there to be say 5 rows showing even if there are no items, 2 items or 100 items. I do not want it to be multiple selection though.



i have tried the following and combinations of the following but no joy when the initial values are empty.

        selectedItemsList = new SelectItem();
        selectedItemsList.setTitle("Selected");
        selectedItemsList.setMultiple(false);
        selectedItemsList.setMultipleAppearance(MultipleAppearance.GRID);
        selectedItemsList.setHideEmptyPickList(false);
        selectedItemsList.setEmptyPickListHeight(120);
        selectedItemsList.setPickListHeight(120);

Any help is appreciated. Its probably staring me in the face but ..
Thanks,

Thought i'd update the thread since i found a workaround. Maybe somebody else will have had the same problem

The solution is to simply call setHeight (without calling setPickListHeight) and most importantly **** setMultiple(true) **** instead of false even though i did not want to allow multiple selection. I then simply warn the user if the have selected more than one alternative.

Kind of annoyed i never got a reply off the forums because i'm still fairly sure there must be another way of doing this without having to call setMultiple(true).

        selectedItemsList = new SelectItem();
        selectedItemsList.setTitle("Selected");
        selectedItemsList.setMultiple(true);
        selectedItemsList.setMultipleAppearance(MultipleAppearance.GRID);
        selectedItemsList.setHideEmptyPickList(false);
        //selectedItemsList.setEmptyPickListHeight(120);
        //selectedItemsList.setPickListHeight(120);
        
        selectedItemsList.setHeight(120);
