What would be the best way to create a theme programatically and set it as the theme of an activity. Not using onCreate, but rather really embed it in the package in a way that if a define a background it will appear even after onCreate finishes. My first guess is to use the PackageManager but I'm not seeing a way through...

In ApiDemo, there is a progressBar demo. It creates a horizontal progress bar with a xml.
<ProgressBar android:id="@+id/progress_horizontal" style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal" android:layout_width="200dip" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:max="100" android:progress="50" android:secondaryProgress="75" />
But how to create one programmatically? If just new ProgressBar(fContext), it is Default ProgressBar style.
I'm trying to create a basic AlertDialog using an activity with a theme of Theme.Dialog.What I want is for there to be a horizontal bar between the title and the message. However, the bar is not being resized correctly. Rather than being the width of the activity, the bar is the width of the message text. This means that if the activity is being expanded by the message, then the bar will fill the whole activity, so it looks correct. However, if the message width is less than the activity width, the bar only displays above the part of the activity with the text. I've tried every single combination of "fill_parent" and "wrap_content" that I can think of, and none of those work.I've also tried using RelativeLayout and placing the bar above the message text, but that also doesn't work. If I use the RelativeLayout approach and set the bar to fill_parent, it causes the activity to expand to fill the whole screen width, which is also undesirable. Ideally, I want the text placed, the activity width computed, and the bar resized to that width (without affecting it). Is there some way to flag a view to fill the parent view but not to affect its size?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI declared a WebView activity in the manifest like this. code...
When I start this activity within my main activity, only the title of the dialog, containing the apps name, is visible but not the WebView. If I add a TextView to the LinearLayout, it is shown as well, but still the WebView is missing.
If I don't apply android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog" in the manifest, the WebView is displayed.
Why is that and how can I show a WebView in a dialog?
If my custom Activity style inherite from android: style/Theme.Dialog: <style name="MyTransparent" parent="android:style/Theme.Dialog"> </style>

View 3 Replies View RelatedI create my own widget with its own drawable for background.
So in my styles.xml file, I have this: <resources> <style name="MyWidget"> <item name="android:background">@drawable/btn_mywidget_bg</item> </style> </resources>
In my main.xml, if i specified my 'style' attribute, my background drawable was displayed correctly. <test.MyWidget android:id="@+id/mywidget" style="@style/MyWidget" />
but if I just do this: <test.MyWidget android:id="@+id/mywidget" /> , the background drawable is not display correctly.
Can you please tell me how can I specify the default style of my widget so that I don't need to add style="@style/MyWidget" everytime I use my widget?
I am trying to make a sniper style game where the user looks through a scope to see a large image that he can navigate. The user can only see part of the image at a time. The image is supposed to be much larger than the screen size that way he has to actually navigate and look for the enemy. How do I use an image that is larger than the screen that the user can navigate?It is kind of like when you are zoomed in to an image and you can pan the image and move it around to see different parts.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI really like this phone a whole lot better with the exception of one thing. The default calendar theme sucks. With regards to the apps out there that allow you to theme, which ones do not drain the battery if any? I am using this for work so I am trying to get something that looks pleasing to eye while at the same time not degrading my battery life. Any suggestions? I sure do like the keyboard better than the Hero's. Even after calibrating the Hero KB this one is much more responsive and I have fewer errors typing.
