When using Control.Move(id,-1) or Control.Move(id,1) on a panel it doesn't move to the previous or next item, instead it moves to the previous or next row.

Is this broken? Is there a way to move a panel container to the previous or next item?

It's always been like that.

I use this trick to make it appear to move to the next row when using left and right:

xml:
<onleft condition="!String.IsEmpty(Container(51).ListItemNoWrap(-1).Label)">SetFocus(98)</onleft>

<onleft condition="String.IsEmpty(Container(51).ListItemNoWrap(-1).Label)">Back</onleft>

<onright condition="!String.IsEmpty(Container(51).ListItemNoWrap(1).Label)">SetFocus(99)</onright>

<onright>noop</onright>

xml:
<control id="98" type="button">

	<onfocus>Control.Move(51,-1)</onfocus>

	<onfocus>SetFocus(51)</onfocus>

	<onfocus>Right</onfocus>

	<onfocus>Right</onfocus>

	<onfocus>Right</onfocus>

	<onfocus>Right</onfocus>

	<include>HiddenControl</include>

</control>

<control id="99" type="button">

	<onfocus>SetFocus(51)</onfocus>

	<onfocus>Left</onfocus>

	<onfocus>Left</onfocus>

	<onfocus>Left</onfocus>

	<onfocus>Left</onfocus>

	<onfocus>Control.Move(51,1)</onfocus>

	<include>HiddenControl</include>

</control>

So you need to add the Left or Right commands depending on the number of columns you have.

Thanks but I'm not trying to move to the next row using the panels left/right. I understand that your solution is to overcome that a panel wraps around on the same row instead of resetting to the left and moving down a row. That's not what I'm trying to do.

What I'm trying to do is move a panel from one item to the next using a button:-

Code:

<control type="panel" id="100">
..... 2 items wide, x items height
</control>

<control type="button" id="200">
  <onleft>Control.Move(100,-1)</onleft>
  <onright>Control.Move(100,1)</onright>
</control>

For example a vertical panel:-

Code:

+---+---+
| 1 | 2 |
+---+---+
| 3 | 4 |
+---+---+
| 5 | 6 |
+---+---+

Every time Control.Move(100,1) is called then the panel should change focus in order 1,2,3,4,5,6,1 and the same in reverse for Control.Move(100,-1)

However Control.Move(100,1) actually moves 1,3,5,1,3,5,1,3,5

Modify the panel controls I posted to use them in a button instead.

Thanks, but that was the first thing I tried after your initial post,  I just couldn't get your code to work 

Finally got the following to work for a 2 column panel, no need for extra buttons:-

Code:

<control type="button" id="200">
  <onleft>SetFocus(100)</onleft>
  <onleft condition="Container(100).Column(0)">Up</onleft>
  <onleft condition="Container(100).Column(0)">Right</onleft>
  <onleft condition="Container(100).Column(1)">Left</onleft>
  <onleft>SetFocus(200)</onleft>
  <onright>SetFocus(100)</onright>
  <onright condition="Container(100).Column(0)">Right</onright>
  <onright condition="Container(100).Column(1)">Down</onright>
  <onright condition="Container(100).Column(1)">Left</onright>
  <onright>SetFocus(200)</onright>
</control>

It's just a shame that `Control.Move()` is broken for panels

Thank for the help pointing me in the right direction

Here's a no wrap version for future reference:-

Code:

<onleft>SetFocus(100)</onleft>
<onleft condition="Container(100).Column(0) + !Integer.IsEqual(Container(100).CurrentItem,1)">Up</onleft>
<onleft condition="Container(100).Column(0) + !Integer.IsEqual(Container(100).CurrentItem,1)">Right</onleft>
<onleft condition="Container(100).Column(1)">Left</onleft>
<onleft>SetFocus(200)</onleft>
<onright>SetFocus(100)</onright>
<onright condition="Container(100).Column(0)">Right</onright>
<onright condition="Container(100).Column(1)">Down</onright>
<onright condition="Container(100).Column(1) + !Integer.IsEqual(Container(100).CurrentItem,Container(100).NumItems)">Left</onright>
<onright>SetFocus(200)</onright>
