I have a series of buttons on a main menu. Instead of the standard side by side, or one on top of the other, I'd like them to be aligned around a semi-circle. Since I can't drag and drop the buttons to the place I'd like to in the designer, I was wondering the best way to do this? Can I do it in the XML, or would it be best to do it programatically?

I'm developing an Android application.
<?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="200px"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TextView
android:id="@+id/gameTitle"..............
I want to put playGame button in the left side of the center, and noPlayGame button in the right side of the center. Now, both appear aligned to the left of the TableRow. How can I do this?
Probably I don't understand the layout properties of TableLayout yet. It doesn't seem to be possible to achieve such a flexible table like in HTML, because there are no cells. My target is it to achieve such a layout:

How can I do that? I thought about using a GridView but this doesn't seem to be useful in XML.
My efforts look like this....
I've tried all scaletypes, but all of them result in the image to be at the left corner of the imageview.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got thumbnails which larger side is 70px (e.g 70x40 or 52x70).
I need to create a gray box 70x70px and put the thumbnail in it, so that image is aligned with the box at top vertically and center horizontally.
How to do that?
I've tried with an ImageView 70x70px, gray background, but image is not positioned as it should (it's in vertical and horizontal center, instead of vertical top and horizontal center).
I've also tried wrapping it with LinearLayout 70x70px, gray background and then positioning it, but then i get 1 or 2px line between LinearLayout and ImageView. I tried to set padding and margins to 0, but the gray line stays on...

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've read the Android documentation:
http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html
but still have some questions. I'm trying to design a music application which basically has images of the instrument (ImageButton) that play a sound when clicked. However, I'm confused about how to have the ImageButtons scale to fit all the different screen sizes and how to position them.
Which layout is best used for needing to position ImageButtons in specific locations on the screen? (i.e. cymbals on a drum set) FrameLayout, RelativeLayout? If I only really care about medium and large screens, do I need to create different resources (images) for both as well as a different XML layout to position them? I'm trying to find the simplest way to do this without having to create a separate layout XML file for positioning/size and separate image resources for each screen.
I have a linear layout in my main.xml which has a listview. Now I want to create a bottom bar below listview. Bottombar has a background image and two buttons with their individual background images. I want to put these two buttons on common background image. I have read that this can be achieved using FrameLayout. But since I am using LinearLayout as base layout in my main.xml, is there any way to this design using linearlayout?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat has people's experience been in learning Android? I'd be interested in how long it takes to get to the point where you're writing your first app, and how the experience compares to learning some other programming API. I know several professional programmers who have tried to learn Android and failed. Is it inherently more difficult or larger than you might expect? But there's a survey here http://www.infoq.com/news/2010/07/Mobile-Survey that claims Android has the shortest learning curve of all smartphone platforms. I wonder how the survey guys could have got such a perverse and unlikely result. I have my own views and observations on this, which I'll mention as a dialog develops. I don't want to bias the discussion with my perspective at this point.

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.

View 8 Replies View RelatedThe droid looks like a great fun device, but I use my mobile device to help me be productive in a sales position. I have some issues keeping me from pulling trigger on a droid. I use mobile device mainly for work related tasks (phone, email, calendar, etc). Any comments would be greatly appreciated. If anyone else has moved from BB to Droid and has other things they miss (besides BBM) please respond.- Lack of email search for exchange email. Almost an instant deal breaker. Is this in the works to be fixed? - Ability to operate with one hand (phone, email, etc). Very easy to dial a contact from BB home screen simply by typing their name. - Speed of typing. I send emails from my BB even when sitting in front of computer. The BB is very easy to use and type on. - Look up internal users on BES. Great for getting contact info of person at company that I don't have in my address book.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am looking to replace my BB curve soon and have been debating for weeks on the Incredible, Droid X, and now the Fascinate. One concern of mine is the ability to stream live video (flash) from sites like atdhe.
I watch a lot of hockey and the ability to stream from a site like that would be excellent. I have been hearing mixed stuff about the video quality streaming wise from the X, and I know the Fascinate has the better GPU, so do you think that would make it the better option for streaming flash video (when it gets 2.2)?
I am not able to find out the perfect layout(viewgroup) to place four buttons as shown in the attached image. Basically, i want to place four buttons near the top/left/bottom/right edge of the screen. AbsoluteLayout helped, but it is deprecated (It is also better to avoid AbsoluteLayout as it is not very flexible for orientation changes)
