View 1 RepliesI want to download image from distant server and use it as resource. Is it possible ? How can I do this ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering..
1)is it possible to set an imageview's resource to the URL location of an image?
2)is there a way of setting the x,y co-ords of where on the screen to draw the imageview?
3)How would I run a check to see if the space is taken up by another Imageview (must specifically be an imageview)
4) How would I make the Imageview "clickable" e.g if the user clicks the image it'll do something?
5) How would I dynamically create imageviews? E.g if a condition is true make another imageview
Perhaps I'm going about this wrong so I'll explain better what I'm looking to do.. basically I want to draw images on the screen which are located at URL's. I want to display N amount of images (There will be conditions which will decide how many images I'm displaying, so it'll have to be dynamically created) each image should take up approx 50x50 screen space. There will be other conditions to where the image should be displayed.. If an image exists at a certain co-ord it shouldn't draw over it, when the user clicks the image something else should happen.
Currently I'm successfully loading and displaying an image from a webserver using the code below.
URL imgURL = new URL("http://www.xxx.com/myimage.png"); URLConnection conn = aURL.openConnection(); conn.connect(); InputStream is = conn.getInputStream(); BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(is); bm= BitmapFactory.decodeStream(bis); bis.close(); is.close();
canvas.drawBitmap(bm, 0, 0, null);
What I want to do is load it from a resource. I've put myimage.png into res/drawable and referenced the bitmap as follows :-
Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.myimage);
However when I try to display it with canvas.drawBitmap(bm, 0, 0, null); I get a Force Close. What am I missing?
I am using a GridView. It contains images. When I click on any item of this grid view I want this image Resource ID to be sent to another activity. Where can I display this image in larger size?

how to get the auto-scale support for the images in file system.
I am trying to create a drawable in code and change the color based on some criteria. When I try and set the Drawable as the background of the ImageView it displays but won't let me set any padding. I realized I need to set the ImageView image via the setImageDrawable() function in order to be able to set the padding. The problem I am running into is that when I set it via the setImageDrawable() function nothing is displayed.
Here is what I have written:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
ImageView icon = (ImageView) row.findViewById(R.id.icon);
ShapeDrawable mDrawable; int x = 0; int y = 0;
int width = 50; int height = 50;
float[] outerR = new float[] { 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12 };
mDrawable = new ShapeDrawable(new RoundRectShape(outerR, null, null));
mDrawable.setBounds(x, y+height, x + width, y);
switch(position){ case 0: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xffff0000); //Red break;
case 1: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xffff0000); //Red break;
case 2: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xff00c000); //Green break;
case 3: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xff00c000); //Green break;
case 4: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xff0000ff); //Blue break;
case 5: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xff0000ff); //Blue break;
case 6: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xff696969); //Gray break;
case 7: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xff696969); //Gray break;
case 8: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xffffff00); //Yellow break;
case 9: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xff8b4513); //Brown break;
case 10: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xff8b4513); //Brown break;
case 11: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xff8b4513); //Brown break;
case 12: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xffa020f0); //Purple break;
case 13: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xffff0000); //Red break;
case 14: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xffffd700); //Gold break;
case 15: mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xffff6600); //Orange break;
} icon.setImageDrawable(mDrawable); icon.setPadding(5, 5, 5, 5);
This results in a space for the ImageView but no image.
This one surely is a simple one but I haven't made sense of is yet. I'm working on an app in opengl es on android. everything goes well except when I load the textures. I manage to open load and create all the textures without any problem, but the image displays itself rotated of 90. it looks as if the application does not consider that its is in landscape when opening the image...I solved the problem by turning all my textures of 90 degrees but I would sure like to figure this one out Because it is the only thing that is not rotated, the top bar is rotated, the touch coordinated are rotated,
the h and w of the surface are good,
Here are some code snippets that I think are relevant:

Does setImageResource() in ImageView also draws the image instantly on the screen or does it require any other function call? i need to display the image as soon as i set the resource.
View 7 Replies View RelatedSet the image background path as package:imageName Example. At runtime , my package is com.test.android .Inside that i have an image whose path i want to mention in the XML layout file as android:src = com.test.android/img1 for an ImageButton.I saw an SDK reference for ImageView as android:src = @[+][package:]type:name.But i am not getting how to use it.I think it must not be possibe , but if there is any way , please specify.The reason why i want to do this is that,when i specify a drawable at runtime for my image buttons, i change the images according to Focus received, or onKeyup, KeyDown.. but its not working as expected.When i mention the same thing as style under drawable, it works fine. So if my theme is going to change at runtime, i want to set the drawable at runtime, keepnig the path same in the xml.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an XML resource file:
<resources> <section>
<category value="1" resourceId="@xml/categoryData1" />
<category value="2" resourceId="@xml/categoryData2" />
<category value="3" resourceId="@xml/categoryData3" />
</section> </resources>
Using XmlPullParser, on the START_TAG, I can use:
int value = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "value", 0);
to get values 1, 2, 3...however:
int resourceId = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "resourceId", 0);
doesn't work...it just yields the default value 0, or whatever I change the default value (3rd parameter) to be. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or if this is possible?
I use http://stackoverflow.com/questions/541966/android-how-do-i-do-a-lazy-load-of-images-in-listview/3068012#3068012 to load images in a ListView and a GridView. It works but the images are loaded form bpttom to top. How to fix that?
Bonus Question: Can I use a loading animation in a image view while the real image is loaded? Right now it's just a default image.
It will be helpful if any one can help me out in understanding the concept of radio,flash,system image in android mobile device. Also why are they required? and what is their role in Device?

I have been through almost all the tutorials and have decided to start on my first test app.The first part of my app is going to involve using the gallery widget (based on the hello gallery tutorial) to display a load of images. (these images will eventually come from the phones camera, but I will cross that bridge later!)

Just 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.

I am using the function decodeResource(Resources res, int id, BitmapFactory.Options opt).I am using it in the following way:
BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.image,opt);
My question is instead of using R.drawable.image which is an image in resdrawable folder, I want to use a image from sdcard.Is it possible? How to get the resource id of an image in the sdcard?
I do have a lot of language specific resources. There's one point in my Android apps where I do get a resource value and need to translate this value into the matching id. The value is not neccessarily in the language specific file for the current language (en/de/...). It's somewhere in there ... and it's unique.
After reading the docs and this thread "http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3476430/get-resource-id-by-passing-name-as-a-parameter-in-android" I thought that "getIdentifier(String name, String defType, String defPackage)" is the correct way to go but I can't get it to work. The result is always "0".
This code is part of an activity and I'm on Android 2.2.
Is it possible that Android doesn't take all resource files into account and searches just in the current language specific one?
For an example

I am playing around with the Gallery widget.I would like to know how can we get the position of the image on focus in the gallery. For example having several pictures in my gallery, if I tap my finger to the right, pictures will come and go until it stop to one. How one can get the position of this one picture that is currently on focus ?I don't know if I was clear enough, if there is anything you want me to add do not hesitate.
