If the image is present, it is of one of a few sizes. The text is a
bigger problem. Basically, the format is:
[Image] (Item title: 1-2 lines of text)
(Item abstract: 1-10 lines of text)
(Item source: 1 line of text)
Sort of like on YouTube, a thumbnail on the left and a title and the
title and description on the right. But the description can be a
variable size.
Working on doing it with a ListItemRenderer, and am deep inside the
createChildren, measure, commitProperties, and updateDisplayList
methods. Hairy, hairy, hairy.
Anything you can suggest will be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
OK
