I am looking to implement a LabelList or MarkupList ( if need be ), where the content nodes contain two labels ( two titles, lack of a better term ).
I noticed that many content nodes on the roku's default settings page have two labels that are rendered.
Something like this:
----------------------------------------
Label 1 Label 2
----------------------------------------
Label 1 Label 2
----------------------------------------
Label 1 Label 2
----------------------------------------
It is actually rather simple to do this. You will need to use a Markup List, in which you can create a list of custom Scenegraph components. First, create a custom Scenegraph component that extends Group, with two different Label nodes as children. I would set the translation field for one node as [x.0], depending on how far spaced you want the two labels to be, or you can use a Label Node. Then, make a markupList, and set the "itemComponentName" to the custom component with two labels. Finally, create a Content Node as a child node of the Markup List with the necessary data (In this case, two text fields) as follows:
<MarkupList
id = "MarkupList"
itemComponentName = "<INSERT COMPONENT ITEM HERE>"
numRows="3" >
<ContentNode id = "ContentNode" role = "content" >
<ContentNode
text1="Label 1"
text2="Label 2"/>
<ContentNode
text1="Label 1"
text2="Label 2"/>
<ContentNode
text1="Label 1"
text2="Label 2"/>
</ContentNode>
</MarkupList>`
You may have to use the addFields() method instead to add the content for the label.
