adding new item with group doesnt add item to specified group

[elessarParticipant]

hello,
I’m filling the listbox dynamically, sorting items into to groups (let’s say group “1” and group “2”), but the following code (it is just example):

source = []

     $("#listbox").jqxListBox({ source: source, checkboxes: true, width: 350, height: 250, theme: theme });

      var item1 = {

          label: "A",

          group: "1"

      }

      $("#listbox").jqxListBox('addItem', item1);

      var item2 = {

          label: "B",

          group: "2"

      }

      $("#listbox").jqxListBox('addItem', item2);

      var item3 = {

          label: "A",

          group: "1"

      }

      $("#listbox").jqxListBox('addItem', item3);

doesn’t work, it puts everything (A,B,C) in just one group (“1”). I tried several workarounds, but none of them seems to work. Any idea?

//edit: I guess I’d have to manually (with cycle or stg) determine which is the last item in specific group, remember its index and then insert my desired item to that position?

Hi elessar,

At present, the ‘addItem’ method just adds an item as a last item. It does not take into account whether you have set or not the ‘group’ field of the new item. For inserting an item at specific index, use ‘insertItem’ instead.
