Displaying extra rows in a ListField

I'm trying to display an extra row at the top of a ListField - called "Add Item" and it almost works, but the very last row "Item 4" of my data is not displayed.

Screenshot, 1 row is missing

How would you fix this issue?

Please see my very simple test code MyList.java below:

package mypackage;

import java.util.*;
import net.rim.device.api.collection.*;
import net.rim.device.api.collection.util.*; 
import net.rim.device.api.system.*;
import net.rim.device.api.ui.*;
import net.rim.device.api.ui.component.*;
import net.rim.device.api.ui.container.*;
import net.rim.device.api.ui.decor.*;
import net.rim.device.api.util.*;

public class MyList extends UiApplication {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        MyList app = new MyList();
        app.enterEventDispatcher();
    }

    public MyList() {
        pushScreen(new MyScreen());
    }
} 

class MyScreen extends MainScreen {

    ObjectListField myList = new ObjectListField() {
        public void drawListRow(ListField list,
                        Graphics g,
                        int index,
                        int y,
                        int width) {
            if (index == 0) {
                Font i = getFont().derive(Font.ITALIC);
                g.setFont(i);
                g.drawText("Add Item", 0, y);
            } else {
                String str = (String) get(this, index - 1);
                g.drawText(str, 0, y);
            }                
        }

        protected boolean navigationClick(int status, int time) {
            int index = myList.getSelectedIndex();
            String str = (index > 0 ? (String) get(this, index - 1) : 
                "Add item");
            Status.show("You have clicked: " + str);
            return true;
        }
    };

    public MyScreen() {
        setTitle("How to display an extra row?");
        myList.set(new String[]{"Item 1","Item 2","Item 3","Item 4",});
        // myList.setSize(5);
        add(myList);
    }
}

I've tried adding myList.setSize(5); but get an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException thrown by Vector.elementAt(4)

UPDATE:

On Michael's suggestion I've switched from ObjectListField to KeywordFilterField (which is what I actually use in my real program) and now I can call myList.setSize(5) without any exception being thrown.

But the last row is still not displayed:

    public MyItem(int num, String name) {
        _num = num;
        _name = name;
    }

    public String toString() {
        return _num + ": " + _name;
    }

    static class MyComparator implements Comparator {
        public int compare(Object obj1, Object obj2) {
            MyItem item1 = (MyItem) obj1;
            MyItem item2 = (MyItem) obj2;

            return item1.toString().compareTo(item2.toString());
        }
    }

    static class MyProvider implements KeywordProvider {
        public String[] getKeywords(Object obj) {
            MyItem item = (MyItem) obj;
            return new String[]{ Integer.toString(item._num), item._name };
        }
    }
}

I have a feeling, that setSize(4) (instead of 5) is called inbetween - because I see the last row for a moment and then it disappears again.

Thank you! Alex

Solution

Here is my own solution - override the setSize() of the ListField:

enter image description here

(the screenshot above has EXTRA_ROWS = 3, which still works ok).
