Why does 'viewready' event on GridView not fire?

[viewsrc]

Hi there,



Ext.define('MyController', {
...
this.control({
'myGridView': {
selectionchange: this.someFunction <- WORKS!
viewready: this.selFirstRow
}
})
...
this.selFirstRow: function() {
console.log('this text is never seen...'); <- NEVER GETS FIRED
}
...
})

Am I missing something? Is this a bug in 4.0.7?

It says specifically in the api docs for this event "Fires when the grid view is available (use this for selecting a default row)."

Thanks in advance for any ideas!

Your code sample contains a number of syntax errors so it's a little difficult to be sure exactly what's causing your problem.

Try inlining the handler to confirm the event definitely isn't firing. i.e.:


viewready: function() {
console.log('viewready');
}

Is myGridView definitely the gridview and not the grid? The terminology is made more complicated by the MVC because in MVC parlance the grid would be considered a view, but this should not be confused with the dataview (also known as a view) associated with the grid.
