How to scroll Horizontally in labelField in Blackberry - blackberry

Question

I want to scroll Horizontally in label Field.
I am adding this LabelField in Custom GridField Manager. Here is the code of Custom GridField Manager.
public class CustomGridFieldManager extends Manager {
private int[] columnWidths;
private int columns;
private int allRowHeight = -1;
public CustomGridFieldManager(int columns, long style) {
super(style);
this.columns = columns;
}
public CustomGridFieldManager(int[] columnWidths, long style) {
super(style);
this.columnWidths = columnWidths;
this.columns = columnWidths.length;
}
public CustomGridFieldManager(int[] columnWidths, int rowHeight, long style) {
this(columnWidths, style);
this.allRowHeight = rowHeight;
}
protected boolean navigationMovement(int dx, int dy, int status, int time) {
int focusIndex = getFieldWithFocusIndex();
while(dy > 0) {
focusIndex += columns;
if (focusIndex >= getFieldCount()) {
return false; // Focus moves out of this manager
}
else {
Field f = getField(focusIndex);
if (f.isFocusable()) { // Only move the focus onto focusable fields
f.setFocus();
dy--;
}
}
}
while(dy < 0) {
focusIndex -= columns;
if (focusIndex < 0) {
return false;
}
else {
Field f = getField(focusIndex);
if (f.isFocusable()) {
f.setFocus();
dy++;
}
}
}
while(dx > 0) {
focusIndex ++;
if (focusIndex >= getFieldCount()) {
return false;
}
else {
Field f = getField(focusIndex);
if (f.isFocusable()) {
f.setFocus();
dx--;
}
}
}
while(dx < 0) {
focusIndex --;
if (focusIndex < 0) {
return false;
}
else {
Field f = getField(focusIndex);
if (f.isFocusable()) {
f.setFocus();
dx++;
}
}
}
return true;
}
protected void sublayout(int width, int height) {
int y = 0;
if (columnWidths == null) {
columnWidths = new int[columns];
for(int i = 0; i < columns; i++) {
columnWidths[i] = width/columns;
}
}
Field[] fields = new Field[columnWidths.length];
int currentColumn = 0;
int rowHeight = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < getFieldCount(); i++) {
fields[currentColumn] = getField(i);
layoutChild(fields[currentColumn], columnWidths[currentColumn], height-y);
if (fields[currentColumn].getHeight() > rowHeight) {
rowHeight = fields[currentColumn].getHeight();
}
currentColumn++;
if (currentColumn == columnWidths.length || i == getFieldCount()-1) {
int x = 0;
if (this.allRowHeight >= 0) {
rowHeight = this.allRowHeight;
}
for(int c = 0; c < currentColumn; c++) {
long fieldStyle = fields[c].getStyle();
int fieldXOffset = 0;
long fieldHalign = fieldStyle & Field.FIELD_HALIGN_MASK;
if (fieldHalign == Field.FIELD_RIGHT) {
fieldXOffset = columnWidths[c] - fields[c].getWidth();
}
else if (fieldHalign == Field.FIELD_HCENTER) {
fieldXOffset = (columnWidths[c]-fields[c].getWidth())/2;
}
int fieldYOffset = 0;
long fieldValign = fieldStyle & Field.FIELD_VALIGN_MASK;
if (fieldValign == Field.FIELD_BOTTOM) {
fieldYOffset = rowHeight - fields[c].getHeight();
}
else if (fieldValign == Field.FIELD_VCENTER) {
fieldYOffset = (rowHeight-fields[c].getHeight())/2;
}
setPositionChild(fields[c], x+fieldXOffset, y + fieldYOffset);
x += columnWidths[c];
}
currentColumn = 0;
y += rowHeight;
}
if (y >= height) {
break;
}
}
int totalWidth = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < columnWidths.length; i++) {
totalWidth += columnWidths[i];
}
setExtent(totalWidth, Math.min(y, height));
}
}
In another Class, I use this custom GridField Manager Class.
int[] width = { (int) (Display.getWidth() / 2.9),
(int) (Display.getWidth() / 1.1) };
final CustomGridFieldManager gfm_transactioninfo = new CustomGridFieldManager(
width, 35, Manager.VERTICAL_SCROLL | Manager.FIELD_HCENTER
| FOCUSABLE) {
protected void paint(Graphics graphics) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
graphics.setColor(AppData.color_black);
super.paint(graphics);
}
};
gfm_transactioninfo.setMargin(10, 0, 0, 10);// set top and left margin
I add Labelfiled like this,
lbl_CustEmail = new LabelField("Customer Email", LabelField.FOCUSABLE);
lbl_CustEmail.setFont(label_font);
value_CustEmail = new LabelField(": " +trandtail[0].getFromEmail());
value_CustEmail.setFont(label_font);
gfm_transactioninfo.add(lbl_CustEmail);
gfm_transactioninfo.add(value_CustEmail);
If any one has any idea regarding How to scroll Horizontally then please help me. Thanks in Advance.

By customizing your grid view ,you may add one FocusableNullField before and after the label field. By doing so once the focus is on the first null field you can scroll horizontally to the next focusablenullfield and explicitly make labelfield scrollable.
