1. color_demo, added random color when clicked.
18 Aug 2015
1. using gistcheck.py to commit this file to gisthub.
i thought it was working, its not working though.
i want to punch it, drives me crazy.
2. **** Important *****
no need to add a button for a hit test now. when you create your cell, you can set self.action to a method/function. if the cell is clicked/hit, the self.action will be called if defined.
Changed all the demo cells to work off the new mechanism.
3. changing the click mechanism had a side effect. the cell was not being released from memory when setting self.action = some_method. In the release
function i now set self.action = None, the memory leak stopped.
4. added 'Top' and 'Bottom' menu items to the titlebar. just to take you to the top abd bottom of the list.
5. the initial cell count is 100 million. its a VirtualView. 5 or 500 million cells should not matter. if you are not comportable with that number, just change _item_count below to a smaller number!
6. changed the ui.Label width to be able to display the number correcly. did it the lazy way :(

the idea is that the ui elements for a cell are built in their own method. Making it easier to create different cell types.
