AccordionView, storing groups in separate modules

joanca

Next with AV, I'm trying to store separately the several groups to avoid a long long script and make easier maintaining. Is this possible? If yes, I'm doing something wrong. I attach both the launcher script and a module with a group.

euh?

an AccordionView only takes a vanilla like object, best is to subclass a vanilla.Group and add UI elements in there.

good luck

(a working version attached)

Still not working with the launcher code :(
Sorry for worst formatting ever.

from mojo.UI import AccordionView
from vanilla import *
from storegroup import aGroup

class launcher:

    def __init__(self):
        self.w = FloatingWindow((200, 600), title='accordionView')
        self.agroup = aGroup()
        descriptions = [
            dict(label="aGroup", view=self.agroup, size=117, collapsed=False, canResize=False)
        ]
        self.w.accordionView = AccordionView((0, 0, -0, -0), descriptions)
        self.w.open()

launcher()

BTW, is there a guide somewhere to correctly format in posts?

you can only add vanilla like objects in an AccordionView, in your example the class aGroup is not a vanilla like object

use:

from vanilla import *

class aGroup(Group):

    def __init__(self):
        super(aGroup, self).__init__((0, 0, -0, -0))
        self.PopUpButton = PopUpButton((10, 10, -10, -10),
            ['PopUpButton'], sizeStyle='small')

good luck!
