Description

I was stuck on this weird behavior today where my table view would not show the iOS pinstrip background behind my tableview on the 2nd and most after that views. It always showed on the first. Here was my code:

var tableview = Titanium.UI.createTableView({
	data: data
});

if (isApple())
{
	tableview.style = Titanium.UI.iPhone.TableViewStyle.GROUPED;
}

Through trial and error I found out that this worked properly:

if (isApple())
{
	var tableview = Titanium.UI.createTableView({
		data: data
		style: Titanium.UI.iPhone.TableViewStyle.GROUPED;
	});
}
else
{
	var tableview = Titanium.UI.createTableView({
		data: data
	});	
}

So why does it matter if I set the property in the create or after?

See this sample it works:

var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
     backgroundColor: 'white',
     
     title: 'TableView Demo'
   });
   
   var data = [];
   
   for (var c=0;c<4;c++)
   {
   	data[c] = Ti.UI.createTableViewSection({headerTitle:'Group '+(c+1)});
   	for (var x=0;x<10;x++)
   	{
   		data[c].add(Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({title:'Group '+(c+1)+', Row '+(x+1)}));
   	}
   }
   
   // create table view
   var tableview = Titanium.UI.createTableView({
   	data:data,
   	
   });
   
   tableview.style = Titanium.UI.iPhone.TableViewStyle.PLAIN;
   
   
   win.add(tableview);
   
   win.open();

Setting _style_ worked both ways (at instantiation or through property).

   // create table view
   var tableview = Titanium.UI.createTableView({
       data:data,
       style : Titanium.UI.iPhone.TableViewStyle.GROUPED
   });
    
   //tableview.style = Titanium.UI.iPhone.TableViewStyle.GROUPED;

Tested on
