appuifw.Listbox - scrollbar doesn't update screen

[aval57]

Hi all,

Scrollbar moves but the listbox view remains static on my 5530 using the following script in 1.9.7. The underlying screen mapping is correct though; for example if I move the scrollbar all the way to the bottom and touch the lowest item on the screen ('item 05'), it changes to 'item 10' once highlighted, but the remainder of the screen is still unrefreshed.

import appuifw, e32

items = [ 	u"Item 01", u"Item 02", u"Item 03", u"Item 04", u"Item 05",
		u"Item 06", u"Item 07", u"Item 08", u"Item 09", u"Item 10"	]
 
lb = appuifw.Listbox(items, lambda:None)
appuifw.app.body = lb
 
def quit():
	app_lock.signal()

appuifw.app.exit_key_handler = quit
app_lock = e32.Ao_lock()
app_lock.wait()

Am I missing something?
thanks in advance

It's a known bug. I have been waiting for the fix for my N97 forever...

I knew I couldn't have been the first to notice this. Maybe pys60 2 will fix it (assuming I ever get the darn update to install).

If it's corrected, please make a lot of noise! Been waiting for the fix 6+ months...

Unfortunately the only noise I'm able to make right now is to join the chorus of frustration in the update thread. The 2.0 update refuses to install, even after a complete uninstall of 1.9.7 and associated packages.

seems not corrected also in 2.0 release!

maybe there's a workaround?

How did you test it in 2.0 ?
It was possible to install a shell ?

no, i've tried with a script packed with ensymble on a 5530 with only 2.0 runtimes...i think that n97 (from fw 2.0.xx)/n97 mini have the same problem
you can try with 1.9.7 shell

So, the problem was not fixed as you pointed

Please do join and voice your opinion. Maybe a massive outcry from the developer community is what's needed to get this <sarcasm>this insignificant bug</sarcasm> fixed.

I have lost faith, based on long time evidence.

Any hope I still have left is for Symbian Foundation to get legal things agreed as fast as possible and release PyS60 2.0 as part of next Symbian OS release. Then we can start fixing those bugs. We as the developers needing those features.

Still hopeful,
