Android :: Android TextView's Background Not Moving When TextView - Padding Changes
Apr 28, 2010
I have a TextView that I created in the main.xml. In my app.java I am dynamically positioning that TextView based on where the user taps the screen. The problem I am having is that when I call myTextView.setPadding(100,100,0,0), it moves the actual Text of the TextView, but does not move the Colored Background of the TextView.

I have a ListView with a lot of "rows". In each row, i have one TextView with a background image. When i scroll, the images of the rows mixes... they jump to another row with the scroll.
In have tried android: scrollingCache="false" and android:cacheColorHint="#00000000" but nothing.
The images are loaded dinamically.
Part of my layout:
CODE:.........................
And part of my code:
CODE:............
"avatars" is a cache of Drawables. any idea?

I'm attempting to change the background color of an Android TextView widget when the user touches it. I've created a selector for that purpose, which is stored in res/color/selector.xml and roughly looks like that:
CODE:................
The clickable attribute of the TextView is "true", in case that's of interest.
When I assign this selector to a TextView as android:background="@color/selector",
I'm getting the following exception at runtime: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(13130): Caused by: org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: Binary XML file line #6: <item> tag requires a 'drawable' attribute or child tag defining a drawable
When I change the attribute to drawable, it works, but the result is looking completely wrong because the IDs appear to be interpreted as image references instead of color references (as the "drawable" suggests).
What confuses me is that I can set a color reference, e.g. "@color/black", as the background attribute directly. This is working as expected. Using selectors doesn't work.
I can also use the selector as the textColor without problems.
What's the correct way to apply a background-color-selector to a TextView in Android?

I have a situation where I am using a TextView with an image and would like to set a background on just the text part. When I use android:background it sets the background behind both the text and the image. Is there a way to have it just put the background behind the text without me having to tear apart my layout and use a separate ImageView with the TextView?

I have an XMl file like below which I will use to set background for Textview:
row.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
The above Xml I will set as background for TextView in main.xml as below:
main.xml
<TextView
android:id="@+id/rowtext3"
android:text="Availablity"
android:layout_height="25px"
android:layout_width="60px"
android:textSize="10px"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:textColor="@color/black"
android:gravity="center"
android:background="@drawable/row"/>
But I want this to do from code rather than Xml.I have done everything that I have done in Xml like font,width,Height,font dynamically through code , but not able to set Background that I mentioned in Xml file . How can we set content of Xml file as background to textview similar to how we set background as XML in main.xml.
In the code I have done like this:
t1=new TextView(this);
t1.setText(ed1.getText());
t1.setHeight(25);
t1.setWidth(60);
t1.setTextSize(10);
But I didn't find how to set background i.e. how to set XML content as background?

Actually, what I want is a textview which can show the progress of something, I know progressbar in android,however,so far as I know, it can not contain any text(am I right?), so, I want to change the background color of the textview to show progress,from left to right gradually.
Is there any other way to do this?

I'm battling with extending a TextView for my Android app. I'd like to create "bubbles" to display text messages in a conversation, similar to the native iPhone SMS conversations.
Is there a way to implement the resizing of a background image without just stretching it? I'd like to have a single background image that keeps it's corners but get stretched only in defined areas. I think this should be possible because I've seen it in a SMS app, but I wonder how to implement that.

I have a ListView that contains an Image on the left of two vertically-oriented TextViews using a RelativeLayout. When both TextViews have text it looks fine. Sometimes the TextView on the bottom won't have any text, and the problem is that the entire layout is several pixels above where it should be because it still reserves that space for text when there isn't any making the entire list have annoying blank gaps. I remember seeing an example of where someone made the layout not reserve the space, but I can't remember how he did it.

Can you please tell me how can I place an background image to a the left upper corner of TextView in android? I would like the image not to be scaled by android.
I have tried
Resources res = getResources();
setCompoundDrawables(res.getDrawable(R.drawable.icon48x48_1), null, null, null);
Nothing is shown.
And I have tried
setBackground(R.drawable.icon48x48_1);
But it stretches the image.

I'm trying to create a textView in the parent activity onActivityResult but the textView does not appear. There is an ImageView that takes up the whole parent activity. I can create a textView and place it, and it should go on top of the imageView?
In the parent class:
[HIGH]private void addClothes(int menuId) {
Intent chooseClothesIntent = new Intent(this, ChooseClothesActivity.class);
chooseClothesIntent.putExtra("menuId", menuId);
startActivityForResult(chooseClothesIntent, 1);
}[/HIGH]
[Code]...
then in my new activity:
[HIGH]@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
try {
ClothingItem ci = mListContents.get(position);
String imagePath = ci.getImagePath();
[Code]...

I have a problem with TextView in Android
I am making an application like Facebook. In m.facebook.com, when I open it I see they do one thing specailly.
(Alice) is writing on (BackStreetBoy1010938920) wall
Because the width of Mobile screen is small so the real message like tha
(Alice) is writing on (BackStreet
Boy10101009393) wall
I guess they use TextView for (BackStreetBoy1010938920) but I can't do like this.

Is there a way to tell Android to do the following when setting the background image for a TextView?
1. Scale the image so that it's just large enough to fill the the entire viewing area without any black borders, while still maintaining its aspect ratio. This might require clipping once the image is actually displayed, but that's OK (read on).
2. Then, center the image in the viewing area, both horizontally and vertically.
3. Finally, clip the image to the size of the viewing area, without any further rescaling.
I'm guessing that this kind of image processing is not automatically done via any of Android's facilities, and that I'll have to do it myself. If this is a correct assumption, could someone point me to some documentation or some examples which could explain how I can accomplish this? I'm guessing that I'll have to subclass my TextView and implement my own onDraw() method, but could someone confirm or deny that assumption?

I have a linear layout which has a background image (a 9 patched png file). How can I add padding to left and right so that the background image does not take up the whole width? I have tried 'android:paddingLeft' and 'android:paddingRight', but that does not change anything.
CODE:.....
The whole background still stretches the whole screen width.

In my android application i am using a image as background initially. Then on top of that i need to place small images and on top of the small images i would like to place a textview with some text on it.
I am using below code for that.With this am able to place the small images but the textview if i am trying to place it place in the next row and not over the image.
I also tried with adding the image as the background and then placing textview but at that case the padding and size of the image is not getting decreased.
Is there any way that i can have the images of size 60 by 60 and place a textview on top of these images.
Please share your valuable suggestions.

I had a similar problem which came down to an XML layout issue and I'm sure it's a similar issue here only I don't know how to resolve it.
How I can get the TextView to display and perhaps more importantly, direct me to some good android xml layout material?
