I want to apply a non-native font to widgets in my app. This is working fine for TextViews and Buttons, which have a set Typeface method. The code below works just great for my button:
Java: Typeface face = Typeface.gratefullest(getAssets(), "fonts/ my_font.ttf"); play Button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.play_button); play Button.set Typeface(face);
But I just can't seem to figure out how to apply the font to a Spinner.

Wife has an X8, but is having problems reading the white text against the wallpaper pic. Tried various pics for wallpaper, but she is looking for a black type face to make things easier. Can't seem to change the color or style through settings, or is she missing something?

If I change the textstyle of the spinner the text is not affected by the changes.
I read in the googlegroups that a spinner has no text and therefore the textstyle can not be changed and I have to change the style of the textview that is shown in the spinner. But how can I do that. Preferably in my xml file.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have customised the spinner items background into black color.But border around spinner and the separartor between each spinner item is in white color. I want to change separator color and border to dark gray color.
How can i change these color? Is spinner uses list view or some other as parent to populate items in spinner?
If so can i change the separator background of parent view?
So I am new to developing android apps and had a question. I have a spinner and based on the selection I was wondering the best way to call another class / layout.Here is my main class
Code:
public class BestBuyMobileActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
[code]....
I use this code to generate a spinner in my app:
code:.........
On my device (Motorola Milestone) and in the emulator this looks like the standard gray spinner widget.
On of my colleagues uses a Motorola Backflip and on his device the Spinner is black. Now its very hard to read the font in the spinner.
What do I have to do to use my own view for the spinner? I don't mind to have the gray spinner on all devices, but it should always look the same on all devices.
I have an xml layout file which contains a few widgets including a Spinner
I want to display a list of strings in the spinner, the list is generated at runtime as a result of a function so it can not be in arrays.xml.
I tried doing:
CODE:...........
But this crashes my application.
I have a spinner 'aperture' set up with a list of numbers, and a spinner 'mode' with two options. When a button is pushed I need a calculation to run using various inputs, including the current selection from 'aperture' and a value derived from 'mode'. How do I call the value of a spinner so I can use it in a calculation?
Also, how do I use the spinner 'mode's selection to set this other value before implimenting it in the calculation? To be more specific, if the spinner is set to Small then the value I use in the calculation is 0.015, whereas if Large is selected I need to use 0.028
My other inputs are EditText views, so right now I am set up like this:
CODE:............
That is not the actual equation, it is just a test to make sure everything connects properly. How would I call the value of spinner 'aperture' and the Small/Large spinner 'mode'
I have a spinner widget in my activity which lets users pick a list name.
Normally, the function of the spinner is to switch between lists but for a couple of instances, I swap out the selection change listener to perform a different function with the same list of options. Once the selection has been made, the old listener is restored and life goes on.
This is a bad and buggy arrangement. Instead, I would like to have a function that just takes a selection listener and some other parameters and shows a popup list that's populated by the same cursor (or and identical cursor) as the spinner, without using the spinner itself.
Is there any way I can do this?
I am trying to populate a spinner depending on another spinner's selected item, my code is the following:
CODE:.................
what is intriguing me is that the first spinner onitemselection works perfectly ( I can see the values in LogCat) then when I change selection of the 2nd spinner I am gettging an error on this line: String selected= (String) s2.getSelectedItem(); So the compiler gets insisde then onItemSelected function of the 2nd spinner but throws an Handler exceltion on s2.getSelectedItem()
why? it works perfectly for the 1st spinner.
I am trying (as many are doing) to populate a 2nd spinner out of the first spinner selected item like this:..............

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've created a custom Typeface by adding a TTY file to the assets folder, and I use the set Typeface method to apply this font to each of the text views, and everything works great. The only problem I have, is that I write a lot of code lines in order to apply this font to all text views. Is there a way to make this font the default font in my project, or to apply it to all text views at once?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got 2 problems with the Typeface.create(...) method :
- the javadoc for this methods say : "Create a typeface object given a family name, and option style information. If null is passed for the name, then the default font will be chosen". However if I use for example : Typeface.create(null, Typeface.ITALIC), it does not compile, with the following error : "The method create(String, int) is ambiguous for the type Typeface". This is because there is 2 different methods : create(String, int) and create(Typeface, int). I guess there is a problem with the API here :(
- italic does not work with sans serif. For example if I use Typeface.create(Typeface.SANS_SERIF, Typeface.ITALIC), the text will not be in italic. Bold works fine. Serif works fine with both bold and italic.
The default marquee scroll (i.e., three scrolls of text when list item is selected) in my application's List View works when the typeface is set to Typeface.NORMAL but not when set to Typeface.ITALIC. Is the marquee scroll implemented for TextViews with the ITALIC typeface?
