Hi everyone!

I created a custom template following the instructions here: [Customer Data Viewer Layout](https://docs.thunkable.com/custom-data-viewer-layout)

I was successfully able to populate the data from an API call and the functionality works. And so to the custom button clicks that I have created. The problem that I am having issue that I am having is when I scroll through the items on my phone, if I do it wrong the item that I am currently moving through flashes (I’m assuming it’s a default listener to use with “Data Viewer item click”. However for my app I feel it gives a poor user experience. I have attached a video below.

So my Question is: Is there any way to remove that item flash from the Data Viewer List.

Thanks!!
