View 2 RepliesOn the iPhone, when you hold down the top button and the button on the bottom it takes a snap shot of your screen, I love that feature. Does the droid have it?

I could do it with RelativeLayout using both alignParentBottom="true" and alignParentRight="true", but with Framelayout I did not find any such attributes. How do I align it to the bottom-right of screen?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to show a ScrollView with a button anchored to bottom of screen. This is coded programmatically (without using XML layout for now). The trouble is when the ScrollView has many items (requiring scrolling), it prevents the button at the bottom from showing. The bottom button is sort of pushed off the screen. Look at the code below. I have a TODO which mentions a workaround to specify the exact pixel height of the ScrollView, but this is not a good solution. If you change the for loop to add only 2 buttons, then the bottom button will show. So how do I make the ScrollView show a scrolling list, with the bottom button in view, and without specifying an exact size of the ScrollView? I've seen some discussions here:
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa http: //groups. google.com /group/ android-developers/browse_thread/threa But I don't know how to apply these to my situation.package com.test.ScrollViewTest; import android.app.Activity; import android.os.Bundle; import android. view. Gravity ; import android.view. ViewGroup. MarginLayoutParams; import android.widget.Button; import android. widget.ImageView; import android .widget.LinearLayout; import android.widget.RelativeLayout; import android.widget.ScrollView; import android.widget.TextView; public class MyScrollViewTest extends Activity @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) super. onCreate (savedInstanceState); LinearLayout ll = new LinearLayout(this); // the main layout of the screen ll.setOrientation (LinearLayout.VERTICAL); TextView tv1 = new TextView(this); tv1.setText("First line of text"); TextView tv2 = new TextView(this); tv2.setText("Second line of text"); ll.addView(tv1); ll.addView(tv2); ScrollView sv = new ScrollView(this);// You can only add one child (usually a layout) to a scrollview, // otherwise you get exception: "ScrollView can host only one direct child" LinearLayout ll2 = new LinearLayout(this); ll2.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL); * TODO: PROBLEM HERE: You cannot use WRAP_CONTENT for height, because * the layout below the scrollView will not show (it's sort of pushed * off the screen - even if a margin is specified). * An alternate value of 300 works OK (remove the bottom margin too).* But this is only suitable for screen size 320x480 in portrait mode.LinearLayout.LayoutParams params Linear = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams( LinearLayout. Layout Params.FILL_PARENT, Linear Layout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT /*300*/); Add 50 pixel margin to bottom of scrollview (this margin doesn't scroll) paramsLinear.bottomMargin = 50;sv.addView(ll2); // Add some stuff to scrollView to test its depth // (it should leave a margin at bottom of screen) for (int i = 1; i < 10; i++) { TextView textView = new TextView(this) ;textView.setText ("Text View " + i); linearLayout.LayoutParams p = new LinearLayout .LayoutParams (Linear Layout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
ll2.addView (textView, p); button buttonView = new Button(this); buttonView. setText ("Button " + i);ll2.addView(buttonView, p); ll.addView(sv, paramsLinear); RelativeLayout rl = new RelativeLayout(this); RelativeLayout.LayoutParams paramsRelative = new lative Layout. LayoutParams( RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, RelativeLayout .Layout Params .WRAP_CONTENT); // Make the button anchored to the bottom of the screen.// But this doesn't work when the ScrollView has a scrolling list of items. Why? params Relative .addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_BOTTOM); rl.setLayout Params (params Relative) ;
Probably silly question, but just wonder Why do we have 'Phone' button on the bottom of the screen while we have hardware button on the bottom left side?
View 14 Replies View Relatedjust wondering if there is a way to put a "Phone" button at the bottom of the screen (instead of the app dock) like there is on the Sense UI.I thought I saw something like this a few days back (phone button in center, app dock pushed to the left, something else on the right) but I cant find it again.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just got my HTC Desire HD phone and have spent some time setting it up and personalizing homescreens, etc.
But now that I've done that I'd like to remove the 'personalize' button from the Sense bar at the bottom of the screen.
Is this possible? I have little use for it now and would rather it was an Internet button or something similar.
Has anyone worked out if it is possible to set one of the buttons on the bottom of the Desire to bring up the lock screen rather than using the power button at the top. Only just got the phone 3 days ago but this is (sor far) the only niggle I have.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to port an existing iPhone application to android. I wish to have a button scroll into view at the bottom of a GridView to enable the user to load more data from the server. Presently, my solution simply fixes a button at the bottom of the screen instead of having it scroll into view.
Here is my layout code:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical" >
<GridView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/grid"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:columnWidth="70dp" android:numColumns="auto_fit" android:verticalSpacing="0dp" android:horizontalSpacing="0dp" android:stretchMode="columnWidth" android:gravity="center" android:background="#000000" />
<Button android:id="@+id/load_more" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Load More" /> </LinearLayout>
Fixing the button at the bottom of the screen won't work because I plan on placing an ad at the bottom. Can anyone either explain conceptually how to get a load more button to scroll into view, or point me to some sample code, OR tell me why this is not idiomatic to Android and what other UI convention it uses to load more data in a GridView?
I have a layout which does almost what I want. There's just one bug regarding the button at the bottom. I should stay at the bottom at all times. But whenever I bring up the soft-keyboard the button will be displayed above the keyboard. This is not what I want but it should become covered by the keyboard.Moreover, I'd be happy if you could comment on how the layout's built.

Notice how the bottom half of the words "Done" & "Clear" are clipped. This does not happen on the emulator or on the N1, Droid or G1. But, apparently is happening on the Xperia X10. Here's the layout for the buttons (background set programmatically):
<Button android:text="Done" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_margin="5dip" android:layout_width="60dip"
android:id="@+id/cancel" android:textStyle="bold"></Button>
I've had this phone since release day, and I've never had the need to press this button. I wish it was the power button instead so much because right now it's just taking up physical space for no reason.

Set a 1 pixel stroke with a given color. I tried getPaint().setStroke(), but couldn't figure how to set the stroke color. How should I do it?
Align the gradient to the bottom of the button, no matter what height it has. Is this possible?

I just got my hero over the weekend and maybe I just didn't notice it until now. The bottom button/trackball plate seems to have a little looseness or play in it. If I push it left/right or up/down it moves a slight amount. It doesn't feel like it would pop off but its something I just noticed today. Or do I have to take it in to sprint for a replacement?

I am working on tabactivity.
I wanna show my tabwidget below the tabcontent(framelayout).
I done it by setting the tabwiget tab attribute as android:gravity="bottom"
But the framelayout cant align with those tabs.
That is the tabs are shown at the bottom of the screen and overlap the framelayout
How to do that? if set some height value to the framelayout it not optimized for all screens of android.
I am a beginner in Android programming. I want to build a simple application with a main list view in the screen and two buttons at the bottom of the screen.When more items are added to the list view, the list view should scroll without increasing the overall length of the list view.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've created this set of 4 Tabs named "HOme" "COTD" "Uvtv" and "feeds" for part of the UI of my application. I now need to create a set of sub-tabs for the COTD tab, and they need to be at the bottom of the screen.
I have 8 java classes, 4 that are the tabs, 3 that are supposed to be the Subtabs for COTD, and 1 which is the main class that retrieves and displays the tabs shapes and such
My main file extend to TabActivity and Implements OnTabChangeListener,
CODE:..............
I though that maybe extending the COTD class to TabActivity would've done it, but once I ran it and clicked on the tab it would automatically shut down.
Is there any way to create, as I would say "Sub"-tabs on the COTD file? am I supposed to create another main file for the COTD tab?
The dialog("android.app.Dialog") normally pops up in the center of screen. Can we make the dialog to come in the bottom of screen.
View 5 Replies View RelatedWhat this looks like is on the left and what I want it to look like is on the right.The obvious answer is to set the TextView to fill_parent on height but this causes no room to be left for the button or entry field. Essentially the issue is that I want the submit button and the text entry to be a fixed height at the bottom and the text view to fill the rest of the space, similarly in the horizontal Linear layout I want the submit button to wrap its content and for the text entry to fill the rest of the space.If the first item in a Linear Layout is told to fill_parent it does exactly that, leaving no room for other items, how do I get an item which is first in a linear layout to fill all space apart from the minimum required by the rest of the items in the layout?
