Creating view in Sencha Touch - sencha-touch

Question

I have started to work on Sencha touch a week ago and I still no able to figured out how to create a view. I want to create textfield and listView. Listview shold be shown below the textfield. I am able to show either ListView or textfield as I am able to extend only Ext.panel or Ext.List.
Please help. Please share a link those give details about creating views in Sencha touch.
Ext.define('TrainEnquiry.view.SearchTrains', {
extend: 'Ext.Panel',
alias: "widget.searchtrains",
requires: [ 'Ext.dataview.List','Ext.form.FieldSet','TrainEnquiry.store.Homes'],
config: {
title: 'Train Enquiry',
items: [
{
xtype: 'fieldset',
style:'width:70%; margin:10px',
padding: '10px',
items: [
{
xtype: 'textfield',
placeHolder: 'Username',
itemId: 'userNameTextField',
name: 'userNameTextField',
required: true
}
]
},{
xtype: 'homepagelist',
style: 'margin-Top:100px',
config: {
itemTpl: '<div class="myContent">'+
'<div><b>{status}</b> </div>' +
'</div>',
store: 'Homes',
onItemDisclosure: true
}
}
]
}
});

Showing list views when you are also using a containing element (like a panel) is one of the trickiest things in Sencha, in my opinion. It can be done, but you have to set the layout: 'fit' property on the panel. You'll also need to dock your fieldset to the top (assuming you want it at the top, and probably turn that simple title attribute into a titlebar view within the panel. Here's a link to a SenchaFiddle demonstrating an example of how to do this, and some code for you below:
Ext.Viewport.add({
xtype: 'panel',
layout: 'fit',
items: [
{
xtype: 'titlebar',
title: 'Train Enquiry',
docked: 'top'
},
{
xtype: 'fieldset',
docked: 'top',
items: [
{
xtype: 'textfield',
placeHolder: 'Username',
itemId: 'userNameTextField',
name: 'userNameTextField',
required: true
}
]
},
{
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="myContent">'+
'<div><b>{name}</b> </div>' +
'</div>',
data: [
{ name: 'Item 1' },
{ name: 'Item 2' },
{ name: 'Item 3' },
{ name: 'Item 4' }
]
}
]
});
(By the way next time keep searching, this is the question/answer that most likely would have helped you most: sencha don't seeing the list in a panel)

Answer 2

Avoid using inline styling.
If you want the fieldset to stick to the top of the main panel always and the list to scroll, use layout:'fit' inside the main panel config and add docked: 'top' at the fieldset config.
If you want both of them to scroll, remove main panel layout (which will take layout:'auto'), put scrollable:true in main panel config and add scrollable:false in list config. Like this:
config: {
title: 'Train Enquiry',
scrollable : true,
items: [{
xtype: 'fieldset',
items: [{
xtype: 'textfield',
placeHolder: 'Username',
itemId: 'userNameTextField',
name: 'userNameTextField',
required: true
}]
},{
xtype: 'homepagelist',
scrollable: false, // no scrolling for the list
config: {
itemTpl: '<div class="myContent">'+
'<div><b>{status}</b> </div>' +
'</div>',
store: 'Homes',
onItemDisclosure: true
}
}]
}
