Issue with Row repeater

Question

Hi All,
I am using a row repeater UI element to display the results of search. Once the results are displayed the user can navigate to a different page in the row repeater. Lets say the user navigates to page 5. Now when the user goes back and modifies the selection criteria, the row repeater still displays page 5. This time there might be no data in page 5. How can we go back to first page.
Thanks,
Pooja

Hello Pooja,
I didnt see any method available in the CL_WD_ROW_REPEATED to reset it. Alternative what I can think of is to reset the view elements. But I'm not sure whether this will have impact on you other UI elements. May be you can try this
1. create a member variable in Attributes tab (MR_VIEW) of type ref to IF_WD_VIEW
2. in the WDDOMODIFYVIEW, write the following code
if first_time = abap_true.
   wd_this->mr_view = view.
endif.
3. in the search method or in the event handler method for search, call reset_view
wd_this->mr_view->reset_view( ).
this method will reset all the UI elements in the view
other alternative would be to place the Row_Repeater in a transparent container. And during search delete the old row repeater and create a new one and bind the data source.
