That’s not how list view works. You push the data into the object via exposed parameters:
And have the interface in the widget pull that data from the object and set its own elements. Example:
If you ever want to manipulate widget’s data associated with its list view object while a widget is instantiated, manipulate the object itself and have the list refresh active widget instances:
Depending on what is being done, this may not be even necessary.
You cannot do any of this:
Because the widget has yet to exist. The list view will automatically instantiate it when needed using the data in the object you provided.
