sap.m.List supporting grid layout

Inside the sample “sap.ui.layout.sample.GridTasks” there is a nice approach using StandardListItems inside a Grid layout.

If i want to use such a design in conjunction with sap.m.List, the approach will not work for me, ex.

<l:Grid defaultSpan="L3 M4 S6" class="sapUiSmallMarginTop">
  <List ... with StandardListItem template
</l:Grid>

The list generates a list div and also an <ul> for each <li>, while the GridTask example only generates <li> inside <div class="GridSpan">.

It would be cool to be able to disable the rendered list tags (div, ul) to be able to use the GridTask design also for list supporting growing. I would be able to style my GroupHeader like <l:GridData span="L12 M12 S12" linebreakL="true" linebreakM="true" linebreakS="true" /> and then have three list items in a row!

Maybe semantically this ist no more a List, but i would like to have a growing container with a render template that behaves exactly this way.

Inside SAPUI5 there have been a special widget for this (Special kind of TileContainer), but the widget has been marked as deprecated.

I think, if i would fallback to xml templates, i will not benefit from the Growing feature

<template:repeat list="{Items}" var="field">
  <StandardListItem...
</template:repeat>

What do you mean?

Or mabye there is another approach of using a growing list with a responsive grid layout?

Still using it for years 😉, but maybe update will be good for others.

Also great, that my request lazy loading images was implemented in the meantime, that goes hand-in-hand with the GridList.

Sorry for the late reply. Like @boghyon already mentioned, the feature is implemented with https://openui5.hana.ondemand.com/api/sap.f.GridList.
