Android :: Launcher Label Vs Activity Title

Aug 15, 2010

I want to give my application launcher icon (the one that is displayed on the startscreen!) a different, shorter caption. It seems the launcher takes its label from the mainfest section about the main activity's label, as here:

<activity android:name="MainActivity" android:label="@string/app_short_name">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>

I already changed the original reference to my app's name @string/app_name to a different, shorter string resource here. BUT - big BUT: this also of course changes this activity's default title! And I did not want that to happen, there's enough space for a long application name! Setting the long title again in onCreate using the setTitle(int) method does no good either, because the short name will be visible to the user for a short time, but long enough to notice!

And - please don't answer my question by refering to a custom titlebar... I do not want to go that long way, just because of a stupid string title! It's a pain to draw a custom title bar for so little effect! Is there no easy way to just give the launcher a different string to display?

Android :: Ways To Show Vertical Label

Aug 11, 2009

I need 2 ways of showing vertical label in Android:

Horizontal label turned 90 degrees counterclockwise (letters on the side)
Horizontal label with letters one under the other (like a store sign)

Do I need to develop custom widgets for both cases (one case), can I make TextView to render that way, and what would be a good way to do something like that if I need to go completely custom?

Android :: Gmail Label Names Get Truncated

Sep 13, 2010

When I'm reading my Gmail with the HTC EVO and I go to "Change Labels. My label list only shows 15 or so characters. Since I have nested labels (Google IMAP enabled) that is not nearly enough and it is impossible to read the last part of my Label. Which makes it hard to assign labels. Is there any way while changing a label to see more of the label name?

Android :: Access / Change Text Label On Tab?

Oct 9, 2010

I have an Android app with 3 tabs in a TabHost (text labels, no images). I set up the tabs like so:

intent = new Intent().setClass(this, AnnouncementsActivity.class);
spec = tabHost.newTabSpec("news").setIndicator("News").setContent(intent);
tabHost.addTab(spec);

I start up a background thread to fetch announcements from my server and I want to update the text label on the tab to tell the user how many new announcements there are. For example, I want to change the text on the Tab to "News (3)". How can I access and change the text label on the tab?

Android :: Add Margin Between A Radiobutton Its Label In Phone?

Jan 25, 2010

Is it possible to add a little bit of space between a RadioButton and the label while still using Android's built-in components? By default the text looks a little scrunched.

<RadioButton android:id="@+id/rb1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="My Text"/>

I've tried a couple of things:

Specifying margin and padding seem to add space around the entire element (button and text, together). That makes sense, but doesn't do what I need.
Creating a custom drawable via XML specifying images for the checked and unchecked states, then adding a few extra pixels to the right side of each image. This should work, but now you are stepping outside the default UI. (Not the end of the world, but not ideal)
Add extra whitespace to the beginning of each label. Android seems to trim a leading space character, as in " My String", but specifying unicode U+00A0, as in "u00A0My String" does the trick. This works, but it seems kinda dirty.

Any better solutions?

Android : Get Localized Label Of Phone Types?

Aug 24, 2010

When changing the custom locale the label of the phone types change to the appropriate language. Does anybody know how to get the localized label of the phone types?

I pick a contact in my app to get its phone number and if there is more then one number I use an AlertDialog to let the user select the currect one. In this pick list, I want to show the label of the type, so it's easier for the user to select. Since they labels are somewhere in the Android system, it must be possible to get the localized label. Unfortunately, the Phone.LABEL is null when reading the phone number.

Android :: Set TTS Languages?

Aug 26, 2010

I am playing with the Android TTS engine. I am trying to set it to speak in Spanish from Mexico, rather than from Spain. I have tried several combination's of language code / country code but I have not been able to get anything by Spanish from Spain. Here is my code currently

loc = new Locale("es", "MEX");
myTts.setLanguage(loc);
say("Hello");

I have also tried ("es","US"), ("es","LA"), ("spa","US"), ("spa","MEX") with every combination that I can think of it is showing me this in the log: TtsEngine::setLanguage found matching language(spa) but not matching country(MEX). loaded es-ES successfully. I can exit my app and open up the TTS Service Extended. If I set the language to either Spanish[es] or Spanish-Latin America. Either way when I hit 'listen to preview' I get "Hola" which is expected. But from my application I get "Heyyo" instead of "Hola". Can anyone see what I am doing incorrectly to set my language?

Android :: How To LABEL An Invalid Column For Contact Method?

Dec 17, 2009

I am having a bear of a time figuring out what colums exist for email contact methods. Specifically, I want to find out the "home", "work" or "other" of an email address. I have tried looking for it under integer "TYPE" (illegal column), and under Strings "LABEL" (illegal column) and "NAME" (this works, but it is the owner/person's name, not the name of the email address). Is there a place where these schemas (as they are actually used) is documented well? the Javadocs seem to mislead me................

Android :: Custom Title Bar Not Work With Label From Manifest

Oct 12, 2010

I have a custom title bar that I would like to apply to all my activities. I have searched online and found a few ways of doing that however I have ran into a problem. It seems that despite the fact I have a TextView in my titlebar with id @android:/title, Android will not use the value defined in the manifest in android:label for each activity.

I tried also calling setTitle(R.string.myTitle) but it still will not render it! If I manually put some text in my TextView in the xml it shows up fine. How can I have a custom title bar that is linked and makes Android use my manifest values for labels? I do not want to lose the setTitle() or the XML attributes functionality.

Android : App Icon - Label Bugs With New HTC Hero Phones

Oct 25, 2009

I originally titled this with the word "quirkiness" instead of "bugs" but after reading the android reference docs, I believe it's a bug.
I'm having problems with the app icons and labels for the Light Racer series of games I've released on Hero. The games seem to run fine but for whatever reason, they are having problems displaying more than the package name on the home screen on Hero phones. The app manager shows the right name and icon but not the home screen. It also on some phones shows a random image as the icon, not even the app icon! I used a copy of a manifest that I used originally for Light Racer 1.0 from when the Android SDK v1.0 was originally released. For whatever reason, I put the words "Light Racer" directly in to the manifest for the android:label. I also don't specify that same label for the launch activity. I've since changed the label to the default @string/app_name but people are still reporting problems. I thought that maybe not setting the label on the launch activity was causing the problem but then I read this: Code...
