Android :: Define A Circle Shape In Droid Xml Drawable File
Jul 6, 2010
I have some problems finding the documentation of the definitions of shapes in XML for Android. I would like to define a simple circle filled with a solid color in an XML File to include it into my layout files.
Sadly the Documentation on android.com does not cover the XML attributes of the Shape classes. I think I should use an ArcShape to draw a circle but there is no explanation on how to set the size, the color, or the angle needed to make a circle out of an Arc.

I really appreciate if someone can help me with using how to use shape drawable as my background xml for my view. This is what I tried: But I never get the color. Android always gives me black text on white background, regardless what color attribute I put.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<stroke android:width="1dip" android:color="#FBBB" />
<solid android:color="#6000"/>
</shape>.............................

I would like to define each tab's content in a different XML file so the visual editor in Eclipse can be used. That is, without all of the tabs being laid over each other. The visual editor doesn't even seem to work with the XML example provided here: [link text][1]
[1]: http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html "Here", It just has a Null pointer exception.
I have tried to define each tap in it's own file, for example. code...
And when adding the tab I use:
mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("tab_in").setIndicator("Input").setContent(R.layout.input));
But this causes the application to crash on launch. Is there any way to do this?

Is there any way of defining a triangle in a shape item though a XML definition? It seems there is only rectangle, oval, line and ring. Why not a triangle?

I want to have a elmenent with a 2 color border outline. I can do a single color outline using the element, but this only allows me to draw a single line. I tried using 2 elements within my but that didnt work either. Is there a way to either draw a shape within a shape or draw 2 lines around my shape (which has rounded corners btw).

I have an image on a private file.
I read the file, create the drawable, and assign it to an ImageView.
The ImageView has WRAP_CONTENT so the size is automatic.
On 320x480 screens, the image looks good
But on screens with more resolution and high density 480x800 or 480x854 (N1, droid) , when the image is for example 150x150, I see the image as 100x100.
Of course it has something to do with the density but not sure how should I resolve this.
This is my code...
if I then inspect the size of the icon, android thinks the size is 100x100, when really is 150x150.
Looks like its reducing the image by the density.
Can anybody explain this and how to avoid this.

I'm porting android to an overo gumstix. thus it seems the the omapfb driver has some problems on that platform. it doesn't matter at all, because i want to use udlfb (a driver for usb displays) anyway.
till today, i wasn't able to figure out how i can define udlfb as default framebuffer.
tried make menuconfig and select udlfb there, but no changes when booting the fresh compiled kernel. omapfb still wants to come up.
so my final question: how do i define
the default framebuffer driver for an
android kernel?

Is it a good practice to define the alphabetic shortcuts (alphabeticShortcut) of the menu items?
I ask because I've never used them in any of the Android devices that I have owned, even those that have a physical keyboard. Is there any reason to define them? Maybe an accessibility use-case than I'm not seeing?

I spent some time today doing controlled tests with the camera on the Droid and these tests confirmed my thoughts about the Droid camera: It will take decent pictures, but not in autofocus mode. I've posted a link to the pictures in Picasa **here**.The EXIF data shows the following: f.2.8 is the only aperture used. High shutter speeds in hazy sunlight will enable you to steady the camera. Most of the shutter speeds topped out ~ 1/1400 of a second. The other variable is ISO and in bright sunlight it's set very low, usually around ISO 50. This is a good thing since it allows you to have a high shutter speed since these tiny cameras are inherently hard to steady. I cannot account for the fixed aperture of f.2.8. In a larger camera such a wide setting would normally assure a rather soft picture. Here it seems to work.
The sample pictures I posted were duplicated many times in my tests and the results were consistent. As you look at the samples you will first see a wide picture.I then opened the picture in Photoshop and took it to 100% (all pixels displayed) then I cropped an area of interest. The results show the fixed focus working fine (with not as much shutter lag since it's not hunting for focus) and the autofocus mode completely broken. I think this shows a definite software issue. The hardware seems fine, although the shadow areas are quite noisy, the result of a tiny sensor and its overflowing photosites.So go ahead and take pictures outdoors and you'll probably get decent pictures set at infinity, even when you are taking pictures of friends in groups. I'll make a guess that this software bug is a result of a code screwup at the very last minute. If we can be patient I suspect the fix will be a simple one.

I've a border set around a drawable using LinearLayout (bg: rounded rectangle).
The drawable and the border is used as a tab view. I'd like to change the border color of the tab when it is selected.
How can I do this?
Color state list doesn't seem to work as the view being selected is not the shape (i.e border) but the tab. Drawable state list doesn't seem to work either as I'm trying to swivel between views, not drawables. Moreover, I can't find any "onSelectedListener" of the sort...

I got one from the Dark Gray Status bar theme from over at XDA but would really just like the circle on top of the Nex Theme since its so awesome . Anyone know where I can get one at. Ive searched a lot of other forums and found some for other droids but didn't know if it would work with the X and most of them had to be installed through metamorph.

With Android, you can define different resources for different phone attribute by naming res directories appropriately. I need to be able to support different layouts for 480x800 and 480x854. I figured I could have one set of resources stored in the layout-hdpi-v4 directory and another in layout-long-hdpi-v4. However, both resolution seem to think that they are long (at least based on the emulator, which I understand may not reflect devices accurately). Is there another way in which I can distinguish between the two resolutions/aspect ratios?

I'm starting to design my object graph for an OpenGL ES 1.1 app on Android. What's advisable when it comes to actually drawing my triangles and controlling their size? Should I store all the vertices in units relative to each other and then multiply them by a value I pass during a draw(GL10 gl)? Would this approach have any impact when it comes time to do frustum culling?

I'm porting android to Devkit8000 which is a BeagleBoard clone. I have a GPS module connected on /dev/ttyS0. I could successfully get NMEA output when writing "cat /dev/ttyS0" in the terminal emulator.
I want to know how to let android know that there is a GPS module on /dev/ttyS0 and it is outputting NMEA standard? To be able to use the android.location class with it! or test it with any GPS app in the store!
Is there something to edit in the android's source? adding driver for example, writing a code with android-ndk or what?

Since this afternoon, the sync icon (Arrows that point to each other and form a circle) won't go away.
I'm not sure if it's doing anything. I even tried turning sync off altogether but it won't go away.
Tried shutting down twice.
