I wanted to know how to create a listActivity on Droid but on the bottom have a bottom to do whatever I want so like in a section of its own. Recently I tried merging two layouts with one being the row one for list Activity and a button but all I get are a list with buttons next to each line on the list so how can we do a list with a space on the bottom just for a button?

I have created a class extends ListActivity and i want to add a button at bottom of Listactivity. Can any body tell me how it can be done.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have some problems when creating a ListActivity.
I have a listview and some other widgets and my listview is filled with a custom adapter.
You can see the images of this activity here:

Now the problem is. I have a scrollview and all the other views and widgets are placed inside of it. As you can see on the image, I don't see all of my 6 comments (that is the list). When i don't place the scrollview the height of the list is perfect (i have set android:layout_height to wrap_content (to my listview and parent LinearLayout). This is perfect but I have other widgets under the list and when the list reaches the bottom of the screen I can't to scroll to view my other widgets..
How can I fix this? I can set the height of the linearlayout manually but the problem is that the height doesnt has to be the same all the time (it loads the commens from my web service).. It has to fit the height of all the comments (like wrap_content normally does..)
Here is a part of the code with the layout and listview..

On the iPhone, when you hold down the top button and the button on the bottom it takes a snap shot of your screen, I love that feature. Does the droid have it?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm sure this is a classic question, but I couldn't find the answer anywhere. I'm trying to have a ListActivity whose items feature a button. As soon as I include the button on my item layout, the rows are no longer selectable. Any pointers to tutorials or sample code would be much appreciated.

I've seen in many applications there is a button to open the search dialog, as if you pressed the hardware search button.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to port an existing iPhone application to android. I wish to have a button scroll into view at the bottom of a GridView to enable the user to load more data from the server. Presently, my solution simply fixes a button at the bottom of the screen instead of having it scroll into view.
Here is my layout code:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical" >
<GridView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/grid"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:columnWidth="70dp" android:numColumns="auto_fit" android:verticalSpacing="0dp" android:horizontalSpacing="0dp" android:stretchMode="columnWidth" android:gravity="center" android:background="#000000" />
<Button android:id="@+id/load_more" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Load More" /> </LinearLayout>
Fixing the button at the bottom of the screen won't work because I plan on placing an ad at the bottom. Can anyone either explain conceptually how to get a load more button to scroll into view, or point me to some sample code, OR tell me why this is not idiomatic to Android and what other UI convention it uses to load more data in a GridView?
I have a layout which does almost what I want. There's just one bug regarding the button at the bottom. I should stay at the bottom at all times. But whenever I bring up the soft-keyboard the button will be displayed above the keyboard. This is not what I want but it should become covered by the keyboard.Moreover, I'd be happy if you could comment on how the layout's built.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create an always-op-top button/clickable-image which stays on top of all the windows all the time. The proof of concept is here URLs...I'm following this example code URL....
I have been successful and have a running service now. The service displays some text on top left corner of screen all the time while user can freely interact with rest of apps in normal manner. What I'm doing is subclass ViewGroup and add it to root window manager with flag TYPE_SYSTEM_ OVERLAY. Now I want to add a button/clickable-image in place of this text which can receive touch events on itself. I tried overriding "onTouchEvent" for the whole ViewGroup but it does not receive any event. How can I receive events only on certain parts of my always-on-top view group?
Code:
import android.app.Service;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.graphics.Canvas;

I have a layout that has a button I would like to always be on the bottom of the scree of my phone. The problem is android:layout_gravity="bottom" only puts it at the below the rest of the layout, rather than the very bottom of the screen.Is there a way around this?

Notice how the bottom half of the words "Done" & "Clear" are clipped. This does not happen on the emulator or on the N1, Droid or G1. But, apparently is happening on the Xperia X10. Here's the layout for the buttons (background set programmatically):
<Button android:text="Done" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_margin="5dip" android:layout_width="60dip"
android:id="@+id/cancel" android:textStyle="bold"></Button>
I'm trying to show a ScrollView with a button anchored to bottom of screen. This is coded programmatically (without using XML layout for now). The trouble is when the ScrollView has many items (requiring scrolling), it prevents the button at the bottom from showing. The bottom button is sort of pushed off the screen. Look at the code below. I have a TODO which mentions a workaround to specify the exact pixel height of the ScrollView, but this is not a good solution. If you change the for loop to add only 2 buttons, then the bottom button will show. So how do I make the ScrollView show a scrolling list, with the bottom button in view, and without specifying an exact size of the ScrollView? I've seen some discussions here:

Layout Params.FILL_PARENT, Linear Layout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT /*300*/); Add 50 pixel margin to bottom of scrollview (this margin doesn't scroll) paramsLinear.bottomMargin = 50;sv.addView(ll2); // Add some stuff to scrollView to test its depth // (it should leave a margin at bottom of screen) for (int i = 1; i < 10; i++) { TextView textView = new TextView(this) ;textView.setText ("Text View " + i); linearLayout.LayoutParams p = new LinearLayout .LayoutParams (Linear Layout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);

I've had this phone since release day, and I've never had the need to press this button. I wish it was the power button instead so much because right now it's just taking up physical space for no reason.

I just got my hero over the weekend and maybe I just didn't notice it until now. The bottom button/trackball plate seems to have a little looseness or play in it. If I push it left/right or up/down it moves a slight amount. It doesn't feel like it would pop off but its something I just noticed today. Or do I have to take it in to sprint for a replacement?
View 11 Replies View RelatedI've just got my HTC Desire HD phone and have spent some time setting it up and personalizing homescreens, etc.
But now that I've done that I'd like to remove the 'personalize' button from the Sense bar at the bottom of the screen.
Is this possible? I have little use for it now and would rather it was an Internet button or something similar.
Has anyone worked out if it is possible to set one of the buttons on the bottom of the Desire to bring up the lock screen rather than using the power button at the top. Only just got the phone 3 days ago but this is (sor far) the only niggle I have.

ContactListActivity is defined this way:
public class ContactListActivity extends ListActivity { ...
I get the feeling that I'm supposed to create the Intent with something like Intent.ACTION_VIEW but this is where I get lost. If this is the problem, I could try stuff until it works, but I'd prefer to understand why.
Or is ContactListActivity supposed to override something ?
