This is already a very long thread but you still haven't solved your issue. 
You haven't posted a Short, Self Contained, Correct (Compilable), Example 
(http://sscce.org/) which attempts to do only the thing that you're trying 
to do.

What you're attempting is not very difficult. But it's hard to follow this 
thread. Use what you have learned so far and post something complete that 
you think should work. Don't post your full app.
