Sencha Touch 2 event: painted vs show?

Solution
It seems that there's no mistake in your controller. The key reason may lie in another part of your application but ... ok, according to my experience:
`painted` event straight-forward. Everytime your view is really rendered on the screen, `painted` fired up. (Note: `painted` event fires BEFORE the child components of your view are totally rendered. In another word, `painted` first, DOM generation second.)
`show` event does NOT necessarily fire up, especially for the initialization time of your view. `show` event is something fired up when you firstly somehow hide your view, and show it later.
Just experience, may be variant. But hope it might be helpful for you.
Problem
I have a question regarding the `show` event. in my application I'm handling the `painted` event of my panel like this: ``` Ext.define('mvcTest.controller.Test', { extend: 'Ext.app.Controller', config: { refs: { panel: '#testpanel' }, control:{ panel: { painted: 'onPainted' } } }, onPainted: function(){ alert('painted'); } }); ``` the docu say's, that there is also a "show" event, but it get not fired at all: ``` Ext.define('mvcTest.controller.Test', { extend: 'Ext.app.Controller', config: { refs: { panel: '#testpanel' }, control:{ panel: { show: 'onShow' } } }, onShow: function(comp, obj){ alert('show'); } }); ``` why this does not work? i know, alerting is the wrong way, but that's not the question. thanks, mike
