Hello

  I`m searching a way of using a class in a settings list. The class is a file browser that gives the user the possibility of selecting a file. When selecting the setting list item i want to start the file browser. I don`t know with what setting list class i should use because the standard ones (like the text editor,volume select and other query dialogs like ip, text or date, these i was able to find ) aren`t what i`m searching for. I think i could use another view to open the browser but i would like to work in the same view ast the setting list. Do u have any ideas/solutions? Please.

One solution can be CAknSettingItemList . The control will allow you to create a list of items with a wide range of editors (and of course you can use your own editor also).

Well, actually i`m tryng to make my own SettingItem class but i don`t have enough info of how this class works so i can reimplement the right methods. I want it, when the setting item is selected to enter the file browser, and i want it to draw the file browser in full screen. I allso don`t know what methods are handling the key events, cause` i want to use the key events defined in my class.

What exactly do you mean with "Well, actually i`m tryng to make my own SettingItem class"? Are you extending the setting list class? Or extending a different class?

Understood. Well it's a nice exercise but if you need it fast this is not the best way for you. Try with CAknSettingItemList. You can find how to work with it from the setting example from nokia (www.forum.nokia.com site).

Thanks again
