Android :: Custom Title Bar With TextView And Id / Title Does Not Inherit
Oct 12, 2010
I have a custom title bar that I would like to apply to all my activities. I have searched online and found a few ways of doing that however I have ran into a problem. It seems that despite the fact I have a TextView in my titlebar with id @android:id/title, Android will not use the value defined in the manifest in android:label for each activity. I tried also calling setTitle(R.string.myTitle) but it still will not render it! If I manually put some text in my TextView in the xml it shows up fine. How can I have a custom title bar that is linked and makes Android use my manifest values for labels? I do not want to lose the setTitle() or the XML attributes functionality.

I'm setting up an app to use a custom title so I can get the proper logo into the title instead of just text, and to make it clean (since the logo has a flat black background), I also want the whole title bar to be black. My xml for the title is a framelayout to hold the logo inside of a linearlayout to change the background color, and I'm setting the title in OnCreate() as follows:
CODE:.........................
With this setup, the old gray from the old title bar still exists around the edge of my custom title. Appears to be on the order of 3-4 px on the bottom and 8-10 px on each side. Any ideas about how to get the black background to cover the entire area?

I know how to center the text in the TextView and how to center the TextView inside its parent layout, but what I'm looking for is how to center a title (text centered but second line starting at the same point).
What I'm looking for is this:
| Centered |
| right! |
or this:
| Center |
Not this (text centered):
| Too |
| centered! |
or this (TextView centered):
|Centered |
|wrong! |
or this (with padding and left):
| |Also | |
| |wrong! | |
Did anyone understad this? Is it possible to do this without coding the String itself?

In Android documentation describing "Configuring General Window Properties", it is suggested that specifying properties via XML is preferable whenever possible to avoid seeing the title bar flash. As an example, instead of setting Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE with requestWindowFeature, they set it to @android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar. Is there a similar way to set a custom title bar to be used in the XML?

I am using a custom title view in my application for each activity. In one of the activities, based on button clicks I need to change the custom title view. Now this works fine every time when I make a call to setFeatureInt.
But if I try to update any items in the custom title (say change the text of a button or a text view on the title), the update does not take place.
Debugging through the code shows that the text view and button instances are not null and I can also see the custom title bar. But the text on the text view or the button is not updated. Has anyone else faced this problem? How do I resolve it?

So I am using the techniques in this thread to use a custom background for my titlebar. Unfortunately the framework places my layout inside a FrameLayout (title_container) which has padding as seen below.
Is there anyway to remove the Grey borders? The frame layout is defined in com.android.internal.R.id.title_container, so accessing the frame by ID would be fragile.

I'm trying to create a custom titlebar in my app that looks like this (essentially):
For some reason, the icon shows up, but not the title text. It's really weird. For a split second you see the title text, but then it disappears and only the icon shows in the title.
My code is as follows:
==========================window_title.xml======== ==================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
androidrientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="60px"
android:layout_height="60dip"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
[code]....

In one of my Android Application I need to keep the title bar same but the view that is shown in the rest of the screen changes. So, I have taken different Activity for all the views that I need to show and set the title bar in every Activities onCreate method. Now, the problem is that I have a button in the title bar and need to perform certain action on its click event. Writing the same event handling code in every Activity class is very cumbersome. Is there any other way out that whenever there is a click event on that button of the title bar then we can have the same functionality without writing the same code in all the Activity classes. Can we use ViewGroup for that? I don't have much idea about ViewGroup. Is that possible with ViewGroup?

When my application starts, I call: this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE); to get rid of the title bar. I then create a custom ViewGroup and when set that view to be the content view via a call to 'setContentView', the 'onLayout' method of my ViewGroup is called. However, the top position is set to 25, even though I have turned off the title. How can I set my ViewGroup to take up all of the space, including the space formally occupied by the title bar?

I wish to set the title of each activity with a constant value which is fetched from a local sqlite database. the value is the user's username.
Is there a way to set the title once and have it affect all activities? or do I have to manually set the title on each activity?
If there is a way, how is it achieved?

I have a possible simple layout questions. My activity content view contains a title bar, a webview and a status bar. I put these three views into a linearlayout and each has height as WRAP_CONTENT.
The problem is, when first displays, webview doesn't take much space because the page is not loaded. The status bar is showed right under title bar. When the page is loaded, webview expands over the screen size and the status bar is not shown even when scroll down to the button. (I tried to set webView's height to FILL_PARENT, but status bar is not shown)
What is the correct way I can layout this so the title bar always at the top, the status bar always at the bottom and webview always take the remaining middle space and have scroll bar when contents takes larger space?

I want to hide the title bar for some of my activities. The problem is that I applied a style to all my activities, therefore I can't simply set the theme to @android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar. Using the NoTitleBar theme as a parent for my style would remove the title bar for to much activities. Can I set a no title style item somewhere?

I have three tabs in my Application. On an event under one Tab, i want to change the title of an another existing Tab. This is the title that we provide while adding the tabs to the TabHost.
Eg: TabHost.addTab(tabHost.newTabSpec("Tab2")).setIndicator("I need to be Changed dynamically").setContent....
In the above example, the title of the tab2 that i provided under setIndicator(), should be changed dynamically.
Is there any way to accomplish this.
