Android :: How To Create A Context Menu From Code

Oct 15, 2010

I'm getting all kinds of errors when using res/menu/menu_home.xml, and my project won't build. That's when I remembered that there was a way to create menus from java code instead of declaring it via xml. Does someone remember how to do that?

Android :: ListView OnListItemClick To Create Context Menu?

Aug 20, 2009

This maybe against the way the Android team wants this to work, but if not I can't seem to come up with a way to do this. Basically I have a list view that I want to create a ContextMenu when onListItemClick received. So when the user clicks on a list item I want them to choose the action from a ContextMenu. Anyone have an example of how to do this, I can get it to work with no problems with a long press, but my users are missing the menu and just thinking the ListView does nothing.

Android :: Launch Context Menu From Context Menu

Jan 21, 2010

How can I launch a contextmenu from a contextmenu? I'm trying to replicate the MediaPlayer action that happens when you long click a song, then click "Add to playlist" in the resulting contextmenu. When you click that menu item, another contextmenu pops up with "Add to playlist" as the title, and "Current playlist", "New", and however-many-playlists-you-have defined after that.

Android :: Check Box And Context Menu

Apr 20, 2010

I have a ListView with a ContextMenu, it has one CheckBox (the CheckBox has android:focusable="false") and one TextView per row, but you can hide the TextView in the preferences menu. After doing that, the CheckBox wasn't registering the ContextMenu, so of course, why not register For Context Menu(cb) and unregisterForContextMenu(getListView())? Yes, i did that, but then, when when i call the delete command of onContextItemSelected, the app crashs. AdapterContextMenuInfo info=(AdapterContextMenuInfo)item.getMenuInfo(); db.deletarTarefa(info.id);

Android :: Context Menu Before Sending SMS

Feb 7, 2010

if google voice is installed on your phone, when you dial a phone number a context menu pops up asking if you want to dial with or without google voice. I would like to accomplish the same task for dialing a number or sending a text message. Does the API allow you to do that?It seems there is a process_outgoing_calls, in the permissions manifest, but is there anything for the SMS?

Android :: How Do I Get Text From A Context Menu

Aug 22, 2010

I have a ListActivity with a list of names (Jacob, Will, Matt, etc.). I have a contextMenu which gives the user the option to edit or delete the person. I know how to find the id to perform the edit and delete functionality, but I can't figure out how to get the person's name to be added to the intent extras or to add a toast when a delete occurs.

Here is a snippet of code that I'm using for the context menu: Code...

Android :: Want To Set Up A Context Menu In An AlertDialog?

Nov 13, 2010

I've been working at this all day, and I'm really close but just can't get this to work. I have a button that pulls up an AlertDialog populated with saved entries that include Name and Price. Right now, I can click an item in the Dialog and have it automatically fill in the Name and Price fields in my activity. I want to also be able to long press an item and receive an option to delete it. This is my first try at an Android app, and a lot of this is repurposed from the Notepad Tutorial. Two things I can't figure out:

1) Is my registerForContextMenu sufficient/correct?
2) What am I doing wrong with my onCreateContextMenu? Code...

Android :: Sharing A Context Menu Between Activities

Jun 22, 2010

I have two activities that both contain an identical context menu built programmatically using menu.add(int, int, int, CharSequence). They both use onCreateContextMenu and onContextItemSelected.

The first Activity contains a ListView, when the user long presses on an item the context menu appears for that item. The second Activity (a detail screen for each item in Activity 1) contains a button, when the user presses the button the context menu appears.

I'd like to share the code that creates the context menu between these activities. The only thing these activities share is the context menu, so it seems like a bit of overkill to create a superclass (e.g., ActivityOne extends ContextMenuActivity) that defines onCreateContextMenu and onContextItemSelected methods.

Is there a better way of sharing these methods between activities?

Android :: Identifying Id Of Listitem For Context Menu

May 6, 2010

I have a View that extends Activity. A ListView will display a number of listitems. When the user long clicks I would like to present them with a contextmenu allowing them to select edit, delete etc. and then identify the listitem that was selected as the item to perform the action on.
In onCreate I have:
listView.setAdapter(adapter);
listView.setOnItemClickListener(onListClick);
listView.setOnItemLongClickListener(onListLongClick);
registerForContextMenu(listView);
I have a method onCreateContextMenu
@Override
public void onCreateContextMenu(ContextMenu menu, View v,
ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) {
super.onCreateContextMenu(menu, v, menuInfo);
menu.setHeaderTitle("Context Menu");
menu.add(0, v.getId(), 0, "Edit");
menu.add(0, v.getId(), 0, "Delete");
and also onContextItemSelected
@Override
public boolean onContextItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
if (item.getTitle() == "Edit") {
// edit action
} else if (item.getTitle() == "Delete") {
// delete action
} else {
return false;
return true;
}I am not sure where to go from here to get the correct row/listitem.

Android :: How To Control Opening Context Menu?

Jan 8, 2010

I'm writing a program where the user's finger will often linger on the screen for more than the couple of seconds it takes for the context menu to activate. I have a class that controls when this should happen, but I seem to be unable to launch the context menu manually. As a last resort I decided to register the context menu just before running openContextMenu(View) and while this /did/ grant me a context menu, it subsequently disabled the calls to onTouchEvent when the user touches the screen, rendering the program unusable after showing the context menu. What is the correct way of manually opening the context menu? Why does onTouchEvent suddenly stop receiving events?

Android :: How Can I A Context Menu Without Registering View

Aug 4, 2010

How can I open a context menu for a view without registering it using registerForContextMenu()?

My activity overrides onTouchEvent to detect motion, and if I use registerForContextMenu() it stops working. I'm detecting a long press, so I'd like to forward that request to a method that would build the menu for me, but don't know if it can work that way.
