Grid row cell not updated

Good day to everyone…

Being disabled and ill is not a condition that helps, especially when you have to deliver a TV app within a few days for one of the largest radio stations in the world.

That said, if anyone can give me a hand…

In the following code, at some point I delete the last cell of the first row in the GridView…

Unfortunately, it doesn’t work. The second cell of the first row is still selectable…

I don’t know. Help!

if trovato$ = ""
            contentNode = m.top.content
            if contentNode <> invalid
                riga = contentNode.GetChild(0)
                if riga <> invalid
                    numero = riga.getChildCount()
                    if numero = 2
                        riga.RemoveChild(1)
                    end if
                end if
                contentNode.Update({ children: riga })
            end if
            m.top.content = contentNode
        end if

        
        ' set up a root ContentNode to represent rowList on the GridScreen
        contentNode = m.top.content
        if contentNode = invalid
            contentNode = CreateObject("roSGNode", "ContentNode")
        end if
        contentNode.Update({
            children: rootChildren
        }, true)
        ' populate content field with root content node.
        ' Observer(see OnMainContentLoaded in MainScene.brs) is invoked at that moment
        m.top.content = contentNode

Basically, the gridview is displayed with two cells in the first row. However, in debug, you can see that it’s actually only one…

Am I forgetting to do something?"

The root cause of my problems is the lack of time. The app (or channel) was created by a colleague of mine who is no longer here, and I found myself managing 5 apps (Android TV, Android Mobile, Apple Mobile, Apple TV, Amazon Firestick) and also the Roku channel…
In the end, with patience and using some of my free time, I managed to understand how to use roAssociativeArray and roArray.
Anyway, I solved it.
