Android :: How To Sort Items In ListView?
Aug 27, 2009I cannot get the data from SqLite using order by because the data is encrypted, so the sort wouldn't work there. Is it possible to sort the items in the ListView?

View 5 RepliesIs there any easy to get the appdrawer to sort new items into place without rebooting? It's annoying that it doesn't just sort into place upon install.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have an Android app where users can add items to a list, and I'd like them to be able to re-order the items in the list however they want (as opposed to just offering them different sort orders). It's easy enough to add a position setting for the items (they come from the DB) but what kind of UI elements are available for the user to indicate the desired ordering?
Is there a pattern anyone has seen implemented for this? I have not seen anything on Android that does anything like this, except the home screen which is similar but looks a little bit beyond my expertise at this point. The best I can think of is to use a long click and context menu to "move up" or "move down".
I am building an app that will be an Android listview. Each listview object will be a title and a few sub-categories and ratings. I would like the user to be able to sort the listview by these ratings or sub-categories.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm just getting my feet wet with Android and have built a UI that contains a TabHost with three tabs. Each tab is powered by its own Activity. The first Tab contains a listview with a prepopulated set of rows and is built from a custom ArrayAdapter.
The problem I'm running into is that none of the ListView rows are tappable. In other words, when I tap on them there is no orange selection. If I use the scroll ball on my Nexus One it will select, but any touch gestures don't seem to be responding. All the UI is being handled using XML files with a main.xml housing the TabHost -> LinearLayout -> TabWidget/FrameLayout and a nearby_activity.xml file containing my ListView UI
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"............
I've noticed after I've switched to 1.5 that if ListView item is not enabled the divider(s) for this item are not rendering. Is this intentional?

How to add items to a ListView in Android during runtime?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a listview that's using a custom adapter. I want to dynamically show/remove items from the listview. I've tried everything inside the getView() method in my view adapter. I've tried doing setVisiblity(View.GONE) on the view I'm returning. And it infact doesn't draw the view, but it allocates space for the view and it's just a blank black space.
Is this even possible to set items in listview invisible?
I seem to be having a problem with Android ListView. I'm trying to delete the selected item from ListView. The delete method is working and will allow me to delete as many items from my list as needed, but whenever I scroll to the bottom of the list (after atleast 1 item has been deleted) I get an Error that closes the Application.
Here is my code:
CODE:.............................
I have some class LoginActivity.java. In the onCreate method I retrieve ListView:
ListView list = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.snListView); then:
list.setAdapter(adapter);
In addition there are login.xml layout - there are:
<ListView
android:id="@+id/snListView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
</ListView>
and sn_row.xml:
[Code]...
At the moment I have cell's height 100dp, I need that cell's height will depend on device, I mean I have here 5 cells showing at login screen in ListView and I need that these 5 rows will fit the ListView (cell's height = ListView's height/5).
Im using a custom listView with a Title and a Subtitle where you can read a brief explanation of the item.
For each item on the list, im displaying an alertDialog to select an option (different for each case). When the option is selected, i want to change the Subtitle for the option selected by the user.
This is what i tried:
CODE:.....................
For the first item on the list it works fine, when i select an option, the subtitle get replaced by that option, but when i make a selection in the alertDialogs of the other 2 items, the option selected replaces the subtitle of the first item!
After the listview is already initialized, is it possible to add items to it during runtime?
View 3 Replies View RelatedCan somebody please give me an example code of removing all ListView items and replacing with new items. I tried replacing the adapter items.Still no results.
My code is:
at first I am calling
populateList(){
results -populated arraylist with strings
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>
(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, results);
listview.setAdapter(adapter);
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
listview.setOnItemClickListener(this);
}
I want to set the onclicklistner on the each item to be displayed in ListVIew. The code I have written is:
package munish.android;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
public class List extends ListActivity {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Use an existing ListAdapter that will map an array
// of strings to TextViews
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, mStrings));
getListView().setTextFilterEnabled(true);
} private String[] mStrings = {
"ImageView", "Grid View", "List View", "Map View", "Image Switcher", "Queso Jalapeno", "Queso Majorero", };
I'm trying to make a list that contains elements not necessarily occupying the entire width of the screen, but even if using android:layout_width="wrap_content" on my elements, they always behave as if their width value were set to "fill_parent" instead. If I set a fixed value for the width, e.g. "100px", that value is indeed used, but I just can't get wrap_content to work.
Example simple list item:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#707"> <TextView android:id="@+id/text1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:background="#770" android:text="Text1" /> <TextView android:id="@+id/text2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" android:layout_below="@id/ text1"
android:background="#077" android:text="Text2" /> </RelativeLayout>
What am I missing here? How do I accomplish a list item with wrap_content behaviour, i.e., where the width of each RelativeLayout is adapted to the length of the strings in the contained text views?
My app starts with a blank listview with a Menu option to Add contacts to the ListView. Now, I want that my ListView gets saved every time I quit my App so that the next time I start my App, I see all the contacts from last time. I understand that Android lets you store and retrieve data. Just don't know how to move forward from here.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm building a list that is sorted alphabetically. The list should show a divider containing the Letter that the following icons belong to.
I'm using a Cursoradapter that contains the already sorted result from the database. I plan on adding the divider to the list item and set it to visible if the shown letter changes. How do I know that I have a new Letter? Is there a better way then going forward or backward in the cursor and check if the item I show is the end or beginning of a new group?
How can i set the number of items to show in a list without to scroll?
Example: I have a list with 10 items.
I want that only 3 items appears and that I have to scroll to see the rest of the items.
I've a ListView that can have 0 custom items inside (like "My Downloads").Is there anyway to show a default text "No download yet" ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe way I want it is, per row there will be a text and is followed by a right arrow button, so that the user can click on that button to edit the content of that row. If the user is using the keypad, by using the left and right buttons on the keypad, he should be able to select the textview or the Button in that particular row. I have seen this in a couple of apps. The way I see that working on those apps appear as if they are maintaining two lists in parallel.
The reason i felt it this way is, if I am on row 1 of the list and if I press the right key on the phone keypad, then the right arrow button will get highlighted and now if I use the down key or if I keep pressing the down key, then the focus will scroll through that arrow button only as if that is an another parallel list constructed. I don't know if that is a good way to do it. I tried many for getting this to work, but couldn't succeed.
I have a listview from an SQLDatabase using custom CursorAdaptor. I would like to go back to the activity that I used to create the items when I click on them in the listview. So that I can edit the entries. But nothing happen when I implement the OnItemClick method and the getItemId() on the CursorAdapter even though am not sure I am correct there. Here is my Code:
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapview, View view, int position, long rowId) {
Cursor c = adapter.retrieveRow(rowId); // retrieve row from Database
Intent edit = new Intent(this,NewItem.class);
edit.putExtra(DBAdapter.KEY_ID, rowId);
edit.putExtra(DBAdapter.Title, c.getString(c.getColumnIndex(DBAdapter.Title)));
edit.putExtra(DBAdapter.DATE, c.getString(c.getColumnIndex(DBAdapter.DATE)));
startActivity(edit); } public long getItemId(int id){ return id; }
I've got the following main.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <AbsoluteLayout
android:id="@+id/widget0" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<ListView android:id="@+id/listview" android:layout_width="315px"
android:layout_height="379px" android:layout_x="2px" android:layout_y="50px" >
</ListView> <TextView android:id="@+id/title" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Select device:" android:textSize="17sp"
android:layout_x="-2px" android:layout_y="1px" >
</TextView> <Button android:id="@+id/refresh" android:layout_width="109px"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Refresh" android:layout_x="209px android:layout_y="7px" >
</Button> </AbsoluteLayout>
The main class does nothing but drawing the layout. I've got the following class and layout for the listitems:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:padding="10dp" android:textSize="16sp" >
</TextView> package com.android.bluetoothp2p;
import android.app.ListActivity; import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View; import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener; import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView; import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class BTListView extends ListActivity {
@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.list_item, COUNTRIES)); ListView lv = getListView();
lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true); lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
// When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), ((TextView) view).getText(),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); } } ); }
Countries is just an array with a list of countries, some dummy values. Now, how do I make the list items of the BTListView class go in the ListView (with @+id/listview) of the main class? Now my list works, but it isn't clickable anymore. This is the code:
ListView lv = getListView(); lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true);
lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
// When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "lolwat", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} } );
I have a ListView and I want to select multiple items in the ListView without using CheckedTextView.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to use a hashmap in ArrayAdapter instanciation ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a ListView that works just great, except for this minor annoyance. I can use the trackball/dpad to move up and down my list, and the background changes according to which row has focus. But when I touch the row (click or long click), there's no background change letting me know what's been focused. I've tried setting 'focusable' and 'focusable in touch mode' to true on the rows, but it still doesn't work.
Just in case it matters somehow:
I am setting onClickListeners for each row. The row is comprised of LinearLayouts, TextViews, and a single ImageView. Focusable/clickable is 'true' for each row. Have not specified values for these on the ListView.
Trackable does act funny. I can only move between rows after touching inside the ListView. If I scroll trackball above the first item, it's impossible for me to scroll back into the list.
If I want to mark the second item I'm doing the following code: This code is from my Adapter that extends ArrayAdapter :if (convertView == null) { LayoutInflater mInflater = (LayoutInflater)getContext( ).getSystem Service (Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE); convertView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.channel_list, null); MyContent o = items.get(position); if (o != null) { TextView tt = (TextView) convertView. findViewById (R.id.toptext) ;TextView bt = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.bottomtext);if (tt != null) {tt.setText(o.Top()) ; if(bt != null){bt.setText(o.Bottom());} if(position == 2) { convertView.setBackground Color(R.color.selectem_color); return convertView;It will show the list view but mark every 9'th item after this item (the 11'th item 13'th and so on).Does anyone know what's the reason?
