I am developing a misterhouse frontend.
I have 9 image buttons that I want to be evenly spaced on all sides.
See http://onlamp.com/onlamp/2004/11/11/graphics/mrhousemain.gif . What layout and xml parameters do I use to achieve this?

I have this layout that works correctly, a relative layout with a text view and two buttons spaced evenly below it.
CODE:........
But running layoutopt it says that "this TableRow layout or its TableLayout parent is possible useless".
Is there a way to do this layout then without the tables?
I have a linear layout (oriented horizontally) that contains 3 buttons. I want the 3 buttons to have a fixed width and be evenly distributed across the width of the linear layout.I can manage this by setting the gravity of the linear layout to center and then adjusting the padding of the buttons, but this works for a fixed width and won't work for changing devices or orientations.
<Linear Layout android:id="@+id/LinearLayout01"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:gravity="center">
Button
android:id="@+id/btnOne"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:width="120dip"></Button><Button
android:id="@+id/btnTwo"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:width="120dip"></Button>Button
android:id="@+id/btnThree"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:width="120dip"></Button></Linear Layout>
I have the following layout which display 3 buttons on a row. how can i make it so that each button is evenly distributed across the row? Right now, they are all crowded in the center of the row.

I was just trying out with table layout to display some data....The data is a 3 column data and i want that the columns should utilize the whole width available. But it seems that the layout XML code which i had used is just wrapping up the columns according to the content.

Is it possible to build a GridView object in XML with 3 columns and 4 rows of Image buttons? It doesn't seem to have similar containment relationship like LinearLayout or RelativeLayout viewgroups.
I want to do this entirely in an xml layout file. When I put ImageButton xml tags inside a GridView xml body, The layout panel in eclipse is throwing an exception: UnsupportedOperationException:addView(View, LayoutParams) is not supported in AdapterView.
I would like to know about the 'service discovery' mechanisms supported by android - particularly, Printer Discovery. Does android provide such a discovery option? example: support for snmp broadcast? I tried out an application "PrinterShare" link:

I tried so many things to relocate buttons of a list. Relocate the current button is working but the older buttons not. To clarify the situation:
There are two Activities (Activity A and B). At Activity A I customize a button and pass it on Activity B via an intent. On Activity B I move the button somewhere on the screen. This will be done with other buttons. On Activity B I also want to show the old Buttons.code..
As above mentioned, I want to move the Buttons and set them somewhere on the screen (e.g. down right). But everytime I call Acitvity B again, all Buttons are located at top left. I thought it would be achieved with .

I just cant seem to figure out how to get the layout to work with imagebuttons. What layout should I use? And could you post example code of the xml layout if possible?
I want to make a layout similar to this one:
Four square buttons on the screen - each of those using half of the screen with/screen height (whichever is smaler). Independent of screen size/resolution.
I already tried to achieve this by using a LinearLayoutbut the buttons are ending up using the correct width, but still having the height of the background (not square any more).
CODE:..........
It's looking like this:
How can i acchieve the Layout to look like the image at the top above?
I want there to be buttons at the bottom of the screen, but if the screen size is larger, more buttons would be added.
For example, at a small screen size, there might be 4-5 buttons at the bottom, but if you ran it on a tablet or something similar, there would be maybe 20 buttons.
It can't scroll either, it just has to dynamically fill the layout with buttons.
This specific layout is just annoying me. And can't seem to find a way to have a listView, with a row of buttons at the bottom so that the listview doesn't extend over top of the buttons, and so the buttons are always snapped to the bottom of the screen.
Here's what I want:
It seems like it should be so easy, but everything I've tried has failed.
Here's my current code:

I'd like to add a transparent panel (relativelayout) with fill_parent in width and height.
I want to use this "glasspane" in order to block all buttons underneath. Unfortunately I cannot find the right setter / xml attribute for this.
These wont work:
.setEnabled(false); .setPressed(false); .setClickable(false); .setFocusable(false); .setSaveEnabled(false); .setSelected(false);
Maybe its better to understand if I tell you that I want to create my own dialog without extending the class Dialog.
A dialog also puts a transparent glasspane above all and absorbs all clicks underneath...
RelativeLayout is more flexible, and can do what AbsoluteLayout can do and more.

To place views on top of one another you can also use FrameLayout, positioning these frame layouts in their parent layout:

> I have an image that will have 5 different areas that will be "clickable." Each clickable area will be invisible and play a different sound. I was told not to use an absolute layout, and use a linear layout instead. However, I am now having an issue with placing the buttons over the picture. The linear layout does not allow me to position them correctly where they need to go. How do I properly position a button so that it is over a certain part of the image?
I have three buttons defined in xml
CODE:..............
In Java one way to listen to them is:

For second btn , same code has to be repeated with different id? How can I make it generic enough that , it can listen to all buttons (say in for loop) and while handling I should be able to differentiate different btns. (may be get elements id)
I have a simple problem which makes me feel like a stupid. I really need help on this.
I have a SurfaceView which I created with Java code not XML. I created a MediaPlayer which shows its content on that SurfaceView.
When I use, setContentView(mPreview); // where mPreview is a SurfaceView
The video is played on the screen.
I need to add two buttons on the screen. So I tried something like this:
code:.........
This did not change anything. Still the video is displayed on full screen and no buttons appear. I am a java programmer both SE and ME. Things are done in this way on Java.
Does Android have a different approach?
I've got the following layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<WebView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/webview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
/>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<Button android:id="@+id/back"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="Back" />
<Button android:id="@+id/page_number"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="1 / 100" />
<Button android:id="@+id/next"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="Next" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Which results in the following. How do I make the buttons fit the screen and stop the WebView pushing them off?
I can write a widget with a Button or ImageButton and assign a StateDrawable as background or sourcein order to make an effect when you click it. Besides that I have problems with the side of each button, my main problem is this: how do I change the StateDrawable if I want to change the image of the button from the AppWidgetProvider but still want to preserve the click effect like a StateDrawable. The power control widget in Android does things like that.

Code...
I have a vertically orientated Linear Layout with some Buttons in it:
<Linear Layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical">
<Button android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:id="@+id/bt1" android:text="Button 1"></Button>

I am trying to build a layout dynamically which display some text and image for the most part, but has a series of buttons placed next to each other in the bottom. I have a linear layout that carries the text, another linear layout that carries the image. And yet another linear layout that carries the buttons that get created in a for loop. I have a main layout aligned vertical that adds the text, image and buttons layout, in that order. To finally generate something like this: Text Image Button1 Button2 Button3. The problem is the number of buttons get decided at runtime, so if there are more than 4 buttons, the 5th button gets displayed really tiny. Also, when I tilt the phone, I get only the text and image showing, but no buttons because the image covers the entire screen. Layout thing seems to be pretty complicated to me, any help is appreciated!
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy application has some buttons in the bottom part of activity layout, almost the same like iphone has on ipod app for example. I would like to create my layout so that it will self adjust on different screen sizes.
For example if the content in my layout has height = 400dip and the menu bar in the bottom has height = 100 dip, on every screen size (240*320, 320*480 etc.) i would like the menu bar to stay at the bottom so :
- on screen size 240*320 -> 100dip - for menubar -> 220dip - for content => it remains 180 dip to show, so this content area should be in some kind of a scrollview so that i can view 400dip in only 220dip.
I have tested different possibilities, with relativelayout so that the menu bar could stay on bottom, but i could not put the scroll view on top so that the scroll appears only on small screen sizes.
This is so sick, how do you build your layouts for different screen sizes ?
I would like to have a layout with 5 times 5 buttons. Each of them should have the same width and height (they should be square). And I want the whole matrix to use the screen width (or height, depending on rotation).
I currently do it "by hand" in the Java code:
CODE:...........
This can be improved by obtaining screen width first and then dividing by 5 to get rid of this literal 60. But I'm wondering how I can do this in the res/layout XML file? How can I specify for the height to be the same as the width? (I can set the width to match_parent.)
Im using a LinearLayout to put two buttons horizontally side-by-side, but I want to each button to size itself to use 50% of the horizontal space. I thought layout_weight of "1" for each button would do the trick, but maybe my layout_width needs to be changed?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy app has 5 different relative layouts that it can switch between by using a set of buttons that is at the bottom of the screen. 3 of the layouts contain only TextViews and ImageViews. The other 2 both have a ListView in them. On the 2 views that contain lists when the soft keyboard appears the buttons that are along the bottom move up to on top of the soft keyboard. But on the other 3 views the buttons get hidden by the keyboard. The buttons all have the attribute android:alignParentBottom="true" does anyone know why they'd be behaving differently when one of these two are the active layout at the time?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a TableLayout where each cell of the table contains a single button or textView. I want to make sure that every cell has the same height and the same width. In other words all column widths are the same and all row heights are the same. Of course, it has to do this while resizing the TableLayout to its given layout_width and layout_height. Do I have to do the math myself and set each cell manually or is there an automatic way to do it?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI tried the following to try to display two buttons in a horizontal linear layout, with the edges of the buttons flush with the border of the linear layout. To my surprise, I found that there is always still padding between the buttons and the left, right and bottom edges of the linear layout. Only the top edges of the buttons end up flush with the border of the linear layout. Why is that? And is there a way to control this behavior?

I have a layout that is three linear layouts. The top has some icons and the middle has a tabhost. Each tabhost has a list inside it. The bottom linearlayout has two buttons that should stay at the bottom on the screen at all times. The problem is when a list in the tabhost gets too long, it displays over the buttons. I tried to find some way to get the buttons to bedisplayed over the list but have failed so far.
