I'am a little bit confused with separate opengl thread. Currently, my application is logically separated in two parts - the controlling one and the rendering one. The controlling part interracts with user - accepting user input, changing activities, dealing with files and so on. The rendering part - just render everything it should. Ok, so when I need to load new texture to opengl (unfortunatelly its large and I cant reduce its size), I'd like to show a ProgerssDialog dialog. Trying to show it from the open gl thread brings me an exception: "Can't create handler inside thread that has not called Looper.prepare()". Because the initiator of loading is in the ui thread (for example - user selected a menu option), I'am opening the dialog, adding the load Runnable to stack on Runnables that will be called in Render.onDrawFrame and passing there a callback that will be executed after texture is loaded.

Everything was going great until I added the code from the alert dialog section. The code they give alone gives me an error when I try to run it on the last line, saying I must initialize dialog, but I feel like I'm getting the NullPointerException no matter what the case is.If I don't instantiate "dialog" to "null" at the beginning, I cannot run the program. I'm not even trying to do anything crazy yet, any help would be great because I'm having alot of trouble trying to figure out what exactly this code is trying to do.

I have a widget which starts an activity when it is clicked. I'd like to have some kind of fancy animation to display this activity, rather than the standard scroll-from-right of Android. I'm having problems setting it, though.But then where do I reference it from? I've tried both the base element of the activity I want to slide in, and the activitiy's entry in the manifest,I might be doing this all wrong. Any help is much appreciated!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've started to develop in Android 2 weeks ago and until now, I like it! Currently I am working on a project where I have to display an individual map (not a google maps view, I'd like to display the map of a building's interior) with which the user can interact(mark positions, etc.).
Is there a framework or an existing app that I could use? Of course I searched the internet but could not find anything. Perhaps it is in some way possible to use the google maps API?
I'm trying to make a custom dialog to show a view in this dialog. This is the Builder code:
//Getting the layout LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_dialog_simple,(ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.rlDialogSimple));
//Change Text and on click
TextView tvDialogSimple = (TextView) layout.findViewById(R.id.tvDialogSimple);
tvDialogSimple.setText(R.string.avisoComprobar);
Button btDialogSimple = (Button) layout.findViewById(R.id.btDialogSimple);
btDialogSimple.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
//Do some stuff
//Here I want to close the dialog
} } );
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(AcPanelEditor.this);
builder.setView(layout);
AlertDialog alert = builder.create();
alert.show();
So, I want to dismiss the dialog in the onClick of btDialogSimple. How I can do it? I don't know how to call the dismiss method from inside a onclicklistener. My buttons have a custom layout, so I don't want to make a builder.setPositiveButton.
I'm getting a NullPointerException while attempting to create a Spinner within a dialog and can't seem to debug it because the code looks solid. Wonder if anyone else has any idea. Any help is greatly appreciated.
protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) { Dialog dialog;
switch(id) { case DIALOG_SEND_PM: Spinner spinner = (Spinner)findViewById(R.id.pm_server);
ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(this, R.array.server_array, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
spinner.setAdapter(adapter);
spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new MyOnItemSelectedListener());
dialog = new Dialog(PM.this);
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.send_pm_dialog);
dialog.setTitle(R.string.send_pm);
pmMessage = (EditText) dialog.findViewById(R.id.send_pm_box);
Button sendPm = (Button) dialog.findViewById(R.id.send_pm_button);
sendPm.setOnClickListener(PM.this);
break;
default: dialog = null;
}
I get the exception at adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
I changed the context to MyClass.this and the exception moved down to the next line, which confuses me. I'm wondering if it is the adapter having a null value but I call everything the same way I have before while not in a dialog.
Relevant XML data:
<LinearLayout> <TextView/> <LinearLayout> <TextView/>
<EditText/> <TextView/> <Spinner
android:id="@+id/pm_server"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:background="@drawable/yblueborder"
android:textColor="#ABABAB"/>
</LinearLayout> <Button/> </LinearLayout>
I spent quite a long time trying to get my first custom dialog box to work, following the example in the Android Dev Guide.
Specifically:
CODE:............
I kept getting a badtokenexception whenever I tried to show the dialog.
Eventually I found a forum posting which suggested changing it to:
new Dialog(this);
Which made the problem go away.
My question is if the example is incorrect, or was the code not intended to be used in an Activity method?
I can't dismiss my custom dialog. I have XML layout with some text, pic and a button for dismissing the dialog.
My onCreateDialog starts a DatePicker Dialog and About Dialog

I encountered a message like below when opening a custom dialog through menu option.
02-07 16:37:45.478: ERROR/BACKGROUND_PROC(1007): android.view.WindowManager$BadTokenException: Unable to add window -- token null is not for an application
Using the latest sdk with 1.5 emulator.
I have written below code for showing a custom dialog
CODE:..................
It is unable to find ViewGroup in above code and is crashing. I have another main.xml file which is set to content layout in this activity. So how can I correct this thing ?
Also I need to add some validation here to this dialog like info cannot be empty !
I have a dialog with a custom layout, and I try to close it when I press a button:
private void showAboutDialog() {
dialog = new Dialog(MainMenu.this);
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.about_dialog);
dialog.setCancelable(true);
dialog.setTitle(R.string.about_title);
dialog.show();
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.about_dialog, (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.layout_root));
Button closeButton = (Button) layout.findViewById(R.id.about_close_button);
closeButton.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View view) { dialog.dismiss();
} } );
}
But it doesn't work.
I'm having problem with creating AutocompleteTextView in custom dialog. In every example i saw, the autocomplete feature is only in the classes that extends activity.I need to have autocomplete in custom dialog that I created.

I am developing a desktop widget.I would like to pop up a custom dialog when a remote view is clicked (much like the Facebook widget on Android when the user clicks in the update status field).I know how to use pending intents to launch an activity and have that currently hooked up.

So I have an activity with the onCreateDialog(int id) overriden in it:

This is exactly as described here: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html#CustomDialog However this my exception thrown:

My requirement was to invoke a alert dialog with a string text that gets modified dynamically when the user hits a button every time
for example:
string str="you have clicked "+ count + "times";
where count is an integer variable that gets incremented every time the user hits a button. and when i assign this string to the text of an alert-dialog ,i get the alert-dialog at runtime but with an empty text value...ie. a naked alert-dialog with just OK cancel button.
I'm wondering how I can create a custom pop-up like the one in the screenshot below (borrowed from the Swype keyboard), where I can have a couple of buttons, which each commit a string to the currently "connected" TextView (via a InputConnection). Please note: this is an InputMethodService and not an ordinary Activity. I already tried launching a separate Activity with Theme:Dialog. However, as soon as that one opens I lose my focus with the TextView and my keyboard disappears (and with that my InputConnection is gone).
