I have a question regarding repeating groups. Is it possible to force the repeating to load all content at once instead of waiting until a user scrolls?
Reasoning: I have dynamic fields that calculate using repeating group data. However, not all the values are accounted for until the user scrolls.
You can use āFull Listā. This will load everything in that list. BUTTT, it might now be your best option because full list doesnt allow you to control the height of that element.
(Screen shot below)
Now what i do to avoid this issue is this:
I use two repeating groups. One contains the list (Content List) I want the user to see/interact with.set to āFull Listā
And the other is a Vertical Scroll List. Then I put the Content List inside of that Vertical Scroll list.
Then just like that Iām able to load a full list while still being able to control the height at all times.
PS: Set your Vertical Scroll list to have only 1 cell to make it easier to grasp.
Also make sure you only let the data source for the Vertical Scroll list have one item. Do what i did in my screen shot to ensure this. āCurrent User :converted to listā
The problem I found is that It locks the scroll and doesnāt show all the rows. In some cases, I would need to show a few hundred rows. So I was trying to find the balance. Iām going to try @Vinās recommendation in the next few minutes.
Not sure if i understand 100% what youāre askingā¦
The Vertical Scroll Listās purpose is to display 1 cell (preferably set the data source to something that is already being loaded so you waste no resources touching the DB for ONE item) Which contains your Content List.
This work around is clever and helpful.
There seems to be another challenge in workflow I encounter using this method. I cannot target the repeating group inside the repeating group for actions such as scroll to entry action. Anyone might have idea is this the current limitation of bubble?
