How do you space ImageButtons?
With RelativeLayout, I can have them side by side but I want a gap between them.
How do I place the buttons in the center and at the bottom of the screen?
I'm building a tab activity and but I don't want the tab text to appear bellow the icon. Is there any XML property to define this behavior? On the other hand, how can I place tabs in the bottom of the screen instead of the top?
View 1 Replies View Relatedin some apps (such as VLC, Flash player, the stock video player, etc), there appears to be a small black bar at the bottom where the status bar usually is (even if it's hidden, there's still a black bar). I've had a research and saw a solution app called 'full!screen', however I have no way of rooting the device (It's an Android TV box with no USB output, only input). My current solution is to use MX Player, but it doesn't play 1080p videos properly, so I'd really prefer VLC at this point.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am not able to find out the perfect layout(viewgroup) to place four buttons as shown in the attached image. Basically, i want to place four buttons near the top/left/bottom/right edge of the screen. AbsoluteLayout helped, but it is deprecated (It is also better to avoid AbsoluteLayout as it is not very flexible for orientation changes)

View 8 Replies View RelatedThis may seem like a stupid question but I need to be sure. I was wondering if it was possible to pro-grammatically change the Content Provider used when making a query given a Content URI. The reason being I need to know if it's possible to force the Calendar/Contacts applications to read from a different database via a different Content Provider temporarily while my application is running, so that I can reuse those applications to display my own data. Since the Content URI s are hard coded in each of these applications the only way it might be possible is if we could somehow temporarily change the Content Provider used for a given URI. I know this probably isn't possible, I just need to show it isn't. Could someone confirm this can't be done?

I have a Preference that enables a sync adapter, and takes a while to actually do its work when toggled. Consequently, when the user clicks the Preference, I spin off an AsyncTask to do the work. In the meantime, I disable the Preference and replace the check box with an indeterminate ProgressBar. I have all of this working via a hack involving a subclass of CheckBoxPreference that overlays the ProgressBar on top of the CheckBox.

Can we place a small view over another large view? For example, i have a VideoView which is playing a file in the background. Over this, somewhere in the middle/corner, I want to place another ImageView.
But in Linear/Relative Layout, views can be placed only one after another or relativ to each other. And Absolutelayout is advised against. So what do I do?
Anyone know if there is a way to browse the Android Market Place from a Desktop computer? My eyes are getting tired from staring at the small screen.

What is the best way to customize my eris's UI? I've read about metamorph but I am not sure how to use it, and when I looked at it in the market it says that I need busybox also, what is that for? Also I've read about using gimp to make icons and other things and I'm interested in that. What I wanna do is change my icons away from the stock icons that I have and make my own or find premade ones I like. I also saw that some people had transparent widgets and custom docks, how is that done.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am having a hard time understanding content providers. In the notepad example and others, the content provider never even declares its CONTENT_URI anywhere inside itself, yet the docs say to publicly declare this. It's declared in a different class. So when an activity queries a content provider with a CONTENT_URI, how does Android know which one I want. I see no link between a content provider and its CONTENT_URI declared in another class.
I also don't how to think about intents and content providers. I know that you don't call an intent on a content provider. But an activity queries a content provider without an intent, and an activity has a mimetype attribute in the manifest that would seem to tie it to a content provider.
