Android : Display Image By File Name?
Feb 25, 2009I need to display an image by specifying the file name instead of by using resource. E.g showImage("background.png") instead of showImage(R.drawable.background). Any one knows how?

View 1 RepliesI have an image that is currently stored in variable of type "File". File img; What is the easiest way to display this image onto the screen so I can verify it is working correct?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHere is what I am trying to do:
- have a database that contains a word, and the name of an image file associated with that word.
- the words from the database will be displayed in a listview
- when the word is selected, a new activity will start displaying the word and the image in an image view.
Would it be best to store the terms in an array and have the list view populate from this array and then pull from the database onitemclick? Or can the list view be populated with the terms from the database?
Will android be able to display the image if the name of the file is stored in the db?
I have a png file in my res/drawable-ldpi folder. I'm working in Eclipse with the emulator, but I've tried this on my 2.2.1 Android phone and I get the same behavior. I have an ImageView and I want to set the src programatically, based on a database call. If I just put
Code:
src="@drawable.norusdpyr"
in the Activity's XML file, the file displays fine. BUT, if I put
Code:
String imageresource = "R.drawable." + parsedData[4].toString();
chart.setImageURI(Uri.parse(imageresource));
where parsedData[4].toString() = "nor_usdpyr" I don't see anything. I've also tried
Code:
String imageresource = "android.resource://" + getPackageName() + "/R.drawable." + parsedData[4].toString();
chart.setImageURI(Uri.parse(imageresource));
and
Code:
InputStream is = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/drawable/" + parsedData[4].toString());
chart.setImageDrawable(Drawable.createFromStream(is, ""));
and
Code:
String imageresource = "R.drawable." + parsedData[4].toString();
File file = new File(imageresource);
chart.setImageDrawable(Drawable.createFromPath(file.getAbsolutePath()));
and
Code:
Context context = getApplicationContext();
int ResID = context.getResources().getIdentifier(imageresource, "drawable", "com.KnitCard.project");
chart.setImageResource(ResID);
finally,
Code:
chart.setImageURI(Uri.parse("android.resource://" + getPackageName() + "/R.drawable.nor_usdpyr"));
doesn't work.
None of these work. What am I doing wrong?

View 1 Replies View RelatedJust wondering if its possible to use the built in image viewer to display an image sourced from a database. I'm hoping I can pass the byte[] as an extra to the ACTION_VIEW intent, but can't find any docs on it so far. Alternatively I'll have to roll my own viewer or first write the image out to a file and pass that to the intent.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to display an image from a url, for this I defined the ImageView first as,
<ImageView android:id="@+id/imagename" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
then in the activity,
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); ImageView imgV = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imagename);
Now how should I supply the url of the image from where it should fetch the image ever time. I have seen the function setImageURI but it is not clear how to give the url.Any clues?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble displaying SOME images on my android app. Just normal display image from certain URL. Some images works, some just doesn't work. For instance try displaying this image from URL:
http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/7379/tronlegacys7i7wsjf.jpg
It doesn't work. Doesn't even work in emulator.Could it be the EXIF info for the image is problematic? Can anyone try to see they are able to display that image on android app, and share the code/method to display that image on screen?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I started to display an image from the SDCARD in WebView, I got errors like:
" Not allowed to load local resource: file://".
I�ve found a solution for this, and you don�t even have to care about ContentProviders�
Here�s an example:
/* Using WebView to display the full-screen image */
WebView full = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webview);
/* Set up the Zoom controls */
FrameLayout mContentView = (FrameLayout) get Window().
getDecorView().findViewById(android.R.id.content);
final View zoom = this.full.getZoomControls();
mContentView.addView(zoom, ZOOM_PARAMS);
zoom.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
/* Create a new Html that contains the full-screen image */
String html = new String();
html = ("<html><center><img src=""+fileName+""></html>" );
/* Finally, display the content using WebView */
full.loadDataWithBaseURL("file:///sdcard/data/data/com.youproject.example "utf-8",
""); Hope you found it useful, let me know how it works for you!

The path returned by getFilesDir() includes the full path, "/data/data/net.vitalrecord.android/files."

Can anybody tell how to display background image in a TextView in android?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have the url of an image. What i need to do is launch the default image viewer for images using an intent. But it doesn't work. If I do not specify the type of data, the intent launches the browser since the data is a url. It works basically (since you can see the image on the browser) but what I would like is to have the gallery display the image for me.I can also download the image into a Bitmap but I would still not know how to display the Bitmap using the gallery (if that's even possible).I tried saving the bitmap to the cache and then launch the viewer on that file but it doesn't work. Can you spot any mistakes on my code? (The Utilities class is a class i wrote.
