How to get collection widget to left-justify variable-width cells?
We are currently using Thingworx Foundation 9.3.3.
We have a collection used to display a series of KPIs in a scoreboard. In previous versions of our application, we had a fixed MashupWidth and MashupHeight and the FlowLayoutGravity set to spaced. This, very nicely, left justified all the cells in a row.
Old Scoreboard
After implementing an enhancement that allows for additional information in the cells, we needed to remove the fixed cell width and height and, instead, use the CellHeightField and CellWidthField. Now, with the same layout settings, the cells spread across the width of the browser. This is much less desirable.
New Scoreboard
Is there any way to get the cells to layout in the old way, while still having the variable width/height? We are experiencing this on both Chrome and Edge browsers.
I admit that this is a little strange, as none of the documented layouts seem like they would produce the original layout, but we would very much like to have the left-justified cells.
- Edge: Cells will align to the nearest side that contain them, otherwise will maintain even spacing between themselves.
- Spaced: Cells will maintain even spacing between themselves and the widget sides that contain them.
- Center: Cells will center within available width while displaying as many cells in each row as will fit.
- Expand: Cells will expand to fill available width, even beyond the MashupWidth property setting.
Thanks in advance
