Yes, thank you, this solved my problems, although using a label since <system-bold> doesn’t work with ui.draw_string seems like a bug workaround.

Two issues:

1. When I try to create a custom view with the pyui I am unable to created rounded corners, but if instead I create the custom view without the pyui I get rounded corners.
2. When I try to use <system-bold> font in a custom view the text is not bold.

How do I solve this? Thanks for any help!

Here is an example that illustrates both:

import ui

class customButton(ui.View):
  def __init__(self,frame=(0,0,300,100)):
    self.corner_radius = 8
    self.frame = frame
    self.text = 'why does only one of these have rounded corners and neither have bold text?'

  def draw(self):
    path = ui.Path.rounded_rect(0,0, self.width,self.height,self.corner_radius)
    ui.set_color('green')
    path.fill()
    ui.draw_string(self.text,(0,0,self.width,self.height),('<system-bold>',20),'black',ui.ALIGN_CENTER)


#the pyui file consists of a single custom view, with
# x=20
# y=200
# width=300
# height=100
# custom view class = customButton
v = ui.load_view()
cbn = customButton()
v.add_subview(cbn)
v.present('fullscreen')

Thank you cvp, I appreciate your help

Now instead of reading (0,0) when no rows are selected I read (0,<last_selected_row>) when no rows are selected

Sorry, I lost the indent tabs on the def: above

If you press the ‘check’ button when no rows are selected, it shows (0,0), the same as when the first row is selected:

import ui

def check_selected_row(sender):
	#print(tbl.selected_row)
	lbl.text = str(tbl.selected_row)
	tbl.reload_data()

v = ui.View(bg_color='white')
tbl = ui.TableView(frame=(50,0,100,180))

data = ('zero','one','two')
tbl.data_source=ui.ListDataSource(data)

btn = ui.Button(frame=(250,100,0,0),bg_color='yellow',title='check',action=check_selected_row)

lbl = ui.Label(frame=(50,220,100,100))

v.add_subview(btn)
v.add_subview(tbl)
v.add_subview(lbl)
v.present('fullscreen')

If I read tableview.selected_row, it returns (0,0) if the first row is selected, but it also returns (0,0) if no rows are selected. How can I tell whether the first row of a tableview is selected or not?

Thank you JonB! I knew I must be missing something, and I never would have figured that out.

I’m sorry if this has an obvious answer, but I am unable to get this to work. I want to use a custom close button but it doesn’t work for me. What am I missing? Thank you!

` import ui

v = ui.View()

b1 = ui.Button(title = "why doesn't this close button work?")
b1.frame = (50,100,270,50)
b1.background_color = '#d0d0d0'
b1.action = v.close()

v.add_subview(b1)
v.present('fullscreen', hide_title_bar=True)```

@mikael fantastic! Thank you so much. It works great. I really appreciate your time and @cvp to help out an inexperienced python user like me.
