multiple choice list

Hello gurus,

I want to display 9 choice lists on the form for selection of date , day, month, minute etc.. . .

My problem is that I am not able to see the whole choice lists on the screen.

I want these lists to be visible at one time by the user. I didn't find any setsize to set the size of the choicelists.

Also i want these lists like the following on the screen:

1 2 3

4 5 6

7 8 9

Thus if anone can help me doing this.

I need to be done this anyway whether any other solution apart from choicelist is possible.

Please suggest. Any idea can be implemented.

Thanks

I'm no guru...

But As far as I know, ChoiceGroup cannot do what you want (display it in 3 columns per row).

You will probably need to use CustomItem or Canvas, where you have total control over your entire screen using the paint method. Only problem is that it will take quite a bit more programming.

One more thing, whether it can fit on the screen depends on the font you use. Not all phones support the fonts class in MIDP too well... so sometimes, all you get is one generic font across most Fonts.

Gluck.
