Android : Add Couple Of Command Buttons For Creating Multiple Layouts

Mar 25, 2009

I am new to android and trying to create a customized list. Every item in the list has TextView and one Ratingbar. I now want add a couple of command buttons at the end of the list (like BACK, HOME, , NEXT). When I add these extra views to the layout xml file then they get added along with every item in the list. I think there should be another layout defined for the buttons to be displayed separate from the list. Anyone has an idea on how to do this?

Android :: Multiple Activites That Share 75% Of Layout - Layouts Within Layouts?

Sep 6, 2010

I'm creating a game where there's a screen that, for the most part, is shared by four different activites - but a key portion of the screen will be completely different, depending upon which activity is active. Basically, on the left will be an image of the player and along the bottom there will be a row of buttons (let's say for Armour, Weapons, Magic, Skills). This leaves the top-right portion, which will need to dynamically change to represent the button pressed. (So, one moment the top-right portion is the armour selection activity, and the next it's the weapon selection activity, and so on.)

Is this possible? Can I have a layout within a layout and dynamically point the nested layout at a (nested) layout.xml of my choosing? Or, am I looking at just duplicating most of the layout four times (for the four different activities?) Or, am I going to be looking at linking the four activities to a (the top-right) view component, and then having to dynamically construct all of *that* view's child views based on the currently active activity? Well, that's about as much sense as I can make this question make.

Android :: Should App's With Multiple Layouts Have Multiple Activities To Handle Each

Jul 1, 2010

I'm planning to develop and app that presents the users with several different screens (of different information).
Was wondering what would be the best way to implement this?

Is it better to have separate XML layouts and an activity to display and allow the user to interact with each screen of data?

OR would handling all of these in the same activity be more efficient (and dynamically load / unload each layout)?

Android :: Creating ViewHolders For ListViews With Different Item Layouts

Aug 18, 2010

I have a ListView with different layouts for different items. Some items are separators. Some items are different because they hold different kinds of data, etc.

I want to implement ViewHolders to speed up the getView process, but I'm not quite sure how to go about it. Different layouts have different pieces of data (which makes naming difficult) and different numbers of Views I want to use.

How should I go about doing this?

The best idea I can come up with is to create a generic ViewHolder with X items where X is the number of Views in an item layout with the highest number of them. For the other views with a small number of Views, I'll just use a subsection of those variables in the ViewHolder. So say I have 2 layouts I use for 2 different items. One has 3 TextViews and the other has 1. I would create a ViewHolder with 3 TextView variables and only use 1 of them for my other item. My problem is that this can get really ugly looking and feels really hacky; especially when an item layout may have many Views of many different types.

Here is a very basic getView:

CODE:..........

Suppose I had different types of row layouts, I could have a ViewHolder for each type of row. But what type would I declare "holder" to be at the top? Or would I declare a holder for each type and then use the one for the type of row I'm on.

Android : Using Multiple Layouts For Different Screens

Dec 3, 2009

I am getting my feet wet developing software for the Android. My test app will have multiple screens (each having their own layout file). The main screen will direct the user to view the other screens based on user input. I kinda see this as layers of cake. Bottom layer being main; then you add and remove layers as the user makes UI inputs. The crazy trouble is how to view a second layer. I have created a second class which has its own onCreate method, which has its on setContentView(R.layout.secondlayer).

This class extends Activity much like my primary class does. I have a click event on a button within the main layout. This button will instantiate the new second layer class which I have done. And that is where my story endsI don't know what to do from this point. This is surely a newbie question If someone has an example that would be extremely helpful teach me to fish and I will be on my way.

Android :: Use Motion Events With Multiple Layouts

Aug 22, 2009

I'm beginning in android development, and I've stumbled upon a problem. My application has different layouts stored in xml files, and I use motion events such as onFling or onSingleTapup. These motion events seem to apply whatever layout i'm in. My problem is simply identifying which layout i'm currently using so I can define the appropriate action. I guess what i'm trying to do is a bit like this:

@Override public boolean onSingleTapUp(MotionEvent e) { if(using main layout) { //do this } else if (using settings layout) { // do that } return false;

}

Android : ListViews With Multiple Item Layouts

Aug 5, 2010

I have a ListView on my ListActivity and I'd like the rows of the ListView to be 1 of 3 different layouts. The first item in my list is always going to use layout A, the second item in my list is always going to use layout B, and all subsequent items are going to use layout C.

Here is my getView function: Code...

R.id.label1 and R.id.label2 are TextViews on R.layout.layout_A. However, txtLabel1 and txtLabel2 are null after trying to set them. Why?

I stepped through this code in the debugger and it inflated the correct layout (R.layout.layout_A) and fell into the correct case below to set the R.id.label1 and R.id.label2 text. Also, if there is a better way to do this, please let me know.

General :: Creating Zip Files In Android Command Line

Jun 27, 2011

I noticed in the newer releases of busybox there's no 'zip' command anymore. I'm running busybox 1.19 on my Incredible.

I have been using this command to create different bootanimation.zip files from my phone but am wondering if there is an alternative command I can use from within Android. I've tried tar -cvzf but I believe tar archives/compresses the files differently and renaming the extensions to .zip does not work.

Android : UI Design Suggestions For Display And Switching Between Multiple Layouts

Jun 26, 2010

I'm trying to create an app that offers the user 3 different kinds of layouts. The only common portion for all 3 would be the TextView (located at the top) that would display information specific to the currently displayed layout and 3 buttons to select the required layouts.

Is there some way we can create this UI in XML to keep only one constant part(the upper TextView) and dynamically display any one of the 3 layouts below it?
Would it be better to create separate XML's for each of the layouts (each including the upper TextView in them)?
OR would doing this via code be better?

Fast switching between the 3 layouts is important. TIA

[EDIT 1]
Actually they are 3 different layouts, with several "child" layouts and views within each of them. Could a ViewFlipper be used for switching between these? I was thinking that a ViewFlipper was only for switching between View elements?

I do have them in individual XML's right now but am looking for some way to load and unload them fast. Not sure how to do the hiding thing, will try reading up on that. [/EDIT 1]

Android :: Make ScrollView With A RelativeLayout With Multiple Child Layouts Fill The Screen

Aug 20, 2010

I have a layout that has just a ScrollView visible. It has a relative layout as its child. This layout has several other layouts (mainly text views) as its children. When the text is not big enough, the scroll view does not expand itself to fit the whole screen. Instead, it shows a gap at the bottom where the background shows. I tried setting fillViewPort=true on the ScrollView, but that just made the first child layout (RL1) to fill the screen.

Android :: Creating An Object - Multiple Of Same Instance

Oct 19, 2010

I created an Matrix object (like the math Matrix, a 4x4 block of numbers for instance) and it works fine, can set row,col,variable just fine, but, I cant have more than one of the same object, I have it creating an ArrayList of a dozen Matrix objects, each with the three variables, but when I call changeVar(Matrix x,int variable) and refresh the printout of the matrix, it changes all of the numbers to what i changed the variable to. So it looks like its just creating the same instance over and over, and if you change one, it changes them all, am i missing anything obvious?

Android :: Creating Multiple Objects Of View Defined In Xml

I have to dynamically add a list of views (the views use RelativeLayout). Can I do this by specifying the view definition in xml and instantiate multiple objects off it? This gives the usual benefits of separating the view part from the code (for e.g., making it easy for the UI guys to alter things) or Is going the ArrayAdapter the suggested/only route?

Android :: Best Practices For Creating Multiple App Versions From A Single Codebase?

May 4, 2010

Are there any viable approaches for creating multiple .APKs out of a single codebase? The apps may share the same code, but they could have different manifest files, different resources, or different external libraries (for example in an app with both free and paid versions, the free version could have a library for display ads). Ideally, this would be a single Eclipse project, with a way to specify which app to build/debug, and possibly a command line way to batch build everything.

The intent starts the same activity for all the buttons but will contain different String variables depending on the selection.

Android :: Multiple Buttons For List / From Which View It Was Pressed?

Aug 21, 2009

I am writing a program where I need a ListView for which I am using a ListActivity. Each one of the views within the ListView has four buttons, (Off, Dim, Bright and On). Each one of these buttons is configured with it's own OnClickListener when I build the view. This part seems to work ok. However when I have say 5 Views each which has these four buttons, I can tell whether an off, dim, bright or on button was pressed but I cannot tell from which view it was pressed. So for example if my views are devices (Light, Heater and Kettle) I press an "on" button and I know an On button was pressed but how do I get it to tell me the On button for the Light was pressed?
