Problem refreshing the roAppManager in roPosterScreen
I am building an app wherein I have set up an roPosterScreen, and on isListItemFocused() event, I am resetting the theme of the roAppManager.
However, I had a problem wherein the theme wasn't being set properly with the code
I included an image_canvas,and I replaced the above code with
The app works fine on the left-right direction key presses, however, whenever I press the UP key after isListItemFocused() event gets fired, the app hangs
It exits in the other case.
What could be a solution to this problem ? Any help would be appreciated.

channel_index=msg.GetIndex()
app_theme_aa=get_theme_aa(channel_index)
app1.setTheme(app_theme_aa)
poster.Show()

channel_index=msg.GetIndex()
app_theme_aa=get_theme_aa(channel_index)
image_canvas.setLayer(0,[])
image_canvas.show()
app1.setTheme(app_theme_aa)
poster.Show()
The app works fine on the left-right direction key presses, however, whenever I press the UP key after isListItemFocused() event gets fired, the app hangs

Re: Problem refreshing the roAppManager in roPosterScreen
I don't think that themes were intended to be changed in the middle of an application. Depending on what theme attribute(s) you're trying to change, and for what components, it may or may not work, and may require various kludges for them to work.
Here's an example showing how to change the theme attributes on an roPosterScreen:
I can't comment on why your UP key isn't working because you haven't posted any code for that.
Here's an example showing how to change the theme attributes on an roPosterScreen:
Sub Main ()
displayUI ()
End Sub
Function displayUI () As Void
contentList = [
{ShortDescriptionLine1: "Red"},
{ShortDescriptionLine1: "Green"},
{ShortDescriptionLine1: "Blue"},
]
port = CreateObject ("roMessagePort")
ui = CreateObject ("roPosterScreen")
ui.SetMessagePort (port)
ui.SetContentList (contentList)
ui.Show ()
While True
msg = Wait (0, port)
If Type (msg) = "roPosterScreenEvent"
If msg.IsScreenClosed ()
Exit While
Else If msg.IsListItemFocused ()
index = msg.GetIndex ()
If index = 0
changeTheme ({BackgroundColor: "#FF0000"})
Else If index = 1
changeTheme ({BackgroundColor: "#00FF00"})
Else If index = 2
changeTheme ({BackgroundColor: "#0000FF"})
EndIf
EndIf
EndIf
End While
End Function
Function changeTheme (theme As Object) As Void
ui = CreateObject ("roImageCanvas")
ui.SetLayer (0, {Color: "#000000"})
ui.Show ()
Sleep (1)
CreateObject ("roAppManager").SetTheme (theme)
End Function
