to Beta TapLynx for the iPad
Hi all

I'm using the ipad 1.09b version of tap lynx.

I wish I could create a tab containing a list of thumbnails. Each of
this has to open a full screen window.
So I came up to use a customViewControllerClass for this task, aware
that that ViewController has to be a UIScrollView.
There is an example in the package I downloaded (PLTestViewController)
and tried to tweak it to suite my needs, taking also in consideration
an instruction I found the Plugins Protocol directory of the iPad
Package:
"...
For some custom views, you might want to create a scroll view -- like
the built-in rows.
For others it might not make sense. That part is up to you.
..."

Here is tha loadView method in the PLTestViewController.m:
- (void)loadView {
self.view = [[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero]
autorelease]; //frame doesn't matter at first - TapLynx will resize
if (self.isTabViewController)
self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor]; //for example
purposes -- so it's super-obvious in the UI where your view is
else
self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor orangeColor];
}

I've tried different kind of approach but no success.
Can anyone please show me an example with a Scroll View?
