I need to lay out 3 components on screen, text string, text input and image button. I am using linear layout. I put text alight left, image button alight right. I want text input occupy the reminding space of screen. How could I do that?

Interesting article comparing not-our-phone to an iPhone. That in itself is an interesting comparison. What I found most interesting was the layout of the components. Not sure if it's identical in our phones as it is in the Nexus One, but it was pretty cool to see.

Is this possible using the standard android apis?
I am new in android, i am having few problem in layout alignment. I have divide the screen into three layout,as header, body and footer. I am giving the height dynamically for the three layout in java file, so i need to give 12% of height to header and footer layout, and the remaining 75% i need to assign height to body layout. For that i have made the calculation as follow
first i am getting the height and width for the screen. With the help of the screen height i am getting the 12.5% height for header and footer layout
WindowManager w = getWindowManager(); Display d = w.getDefaultDisplay(); int totalwidth_screen = d.getWidth(); int totalheight_screen = d.getHeight();..................
I have following in xml
I wanna put the second linear layout at the bottom of the screen.
I have set the property of second Relative layout to bottom but still not showing at bottom..
code:...................
When I use customized components in XML, could I use a short name of component instead of a fully qualified class name? I wonder if some configuration file exists to do that work.
For example, my customized components is ex.object.RoundRect,
I should use it in xml file like this: <ex.object.RoundRect android:id="@+id/mainRoundRect01" ... />
But
I want to use it like this: <RoundRect android:id="@+id/mainRoundRect01" ... />
Is it possible? Is there a configuration file that can map the fully qualified class name to a short name?
I am a newbie to android development and looking for developing rich UI based applications. But the tools like Droid Draw only support primitive UI elements. How do I bring in a better UI? Any sample or references or books would help.
View 2 Replies View RelatedEarlier today, we released updates to several different components in the Android SDK. Xav announced these updates via the Android Developers blog: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/12/android-sdk-updates.html. If you want to follow the blog via Twitter, you can now do so via [url]
In addition to the new tools and platforms, there's one other important change that I wanted to point out. We've added additional clarification to the docs about android:maxSdkVersion and what effects it might have on your app if you use it. You can see these details here: [url]

View 2 Replies View RelatedI thought I have understood the XML layout of Android, but it seems that I haven't. I want to have four ImageViews on one screen, to view four images at the same time.
It should look like this, where A to D represents the image views:
DDDAAA
DDDAAA
BBBCCC
BBBCCC
How can I do that? I tried it this way, but it's not working. The Eclipse Editor seems not to be very good for this either. Is there a better one to create those layouts?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to develop and distribute some custom UI components for android apps. This custom component can do some network communicatioon too with my server. So by this I want to hide the communication protocol from my component users, and will show the content as provided by my control eg sponsor ads. This concept is same as Apple's iAD. Issue: 1. I want to hide my custom component code from its users so that they just need to include it in their antivity rest its upto me. 2. I have not implemented but sure that a UI component can do network communication.
I am new to Android development. I have been searching google to add multiple components to a View programmatically .i.e add TextField, Button, etc one below the other. I could only find examples where they have used XML to design the UI. If i want to add the components programmatically how can I do that or I will have design the UI only using the XML.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI know this question is definitely solved somewhere many times already, please enlighten me if you know of their existence,
Quick rundown:
I want to compute from a 3 axis accelerometer the gravity component on each of these 3 axes.
I have used 2 axes free body diagrams to work out the accelerometer's gravity component in the world X-Z, Y-Z and X-Y axes. But the solution seems slightly off, it's acceptable for extreme cases when only 1 accelerometer axis is exposed to gravity, but for a pitch and roll of both 45 degrees, the combined total magnitude is greater than gravity (obtained by Xa^2+Ya^2+Za^2=g^2; Xa, Ya and Za are accelerometer readings in its X, Y and Z axis).
More detail:
The device is a Nexus One, and have a magnetic field sensor for azimuth, pitch and roll in addition to the 3-axis accelerometer.In the world's axis (with Z in the same direction as gravity, and either X or Y points to the north pole, don't think this matters much?), I assumed my device has a pitch (P) on the Y-Z axis, and a roll (R) on the X-Z axis. With that I used simple trig to get:
Sin(R)=Ax/Gxz
Cos(R)=Az/Gxz
Tan(R)=Ax/Az
There is another set for pitch, P.Now I defined gravity to have 3 components in the world's axis, a Gxz that is measurable only in the X-Z axis, a Gyz for Y-Z, and a Gxy for X-Y axis.Gxz^2+Gyz^2+Gxy^2=2*G^2 the 2G is because gravity is effectively included twice in this definition. Oh and the X-Y axis produce something more exotic I'll explain if required later.From these equations I obtained a formula for Az, and removed the tan operations because I don't know how to handle tan90 calculations (it's infinity?).So my question is, anyone know whether I did this right/wrong or able to point me to the right direction?
I'm trying to run the "HelloTriangle" example, from The OpenGL ES 2.0 Programming Guide, in the Android emulator.I import egl.EGLConfig and opengles.GL10 from javax.microedition.khronos, but the ESContext type and definitions such as GL_COMPILE_STATUS and GL_FRAGMENT_SHADER can't be resolved.I reworked the triangle example somewhat for Android in that I'm using GLSurfaceView. I undertand that it is supposed to be used instead of OpenGLContext in the newer versions of the SDK.Am I using a "non-Android" approach to OpenGL ES? If so, what's the right one?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI use a LinearLayout and first I have a MapView and below the map I have a TableLayout with informations fields.
Now I would like to add additional information fields (e.g. a new TableLayout) when the user select a specific menu item on the Options Menu. I would like to have these fields either between the MapView and the TableLayout, or on top of the bottom area of the MapView.
How can I add this TableLayout with additional information fields dynamically after the user has selected a menu item? How can I show it below the MapView or on top of the bottom area of the MapView?

i.e. the layout are the same across different densities, but some dimension are different.
how can I do that?

Is there a "template" or Activity I can use or is it a case of constructing it from a table layout or similar?
I'm reading the android docs on custom component development and i'm a little confused. If you're creating an activity, you can add add a hierarchy of views via setContent. however, if you're creating a custom component, you have to handle everything in the draw() overload.if i want to build a custom component that relies on a view hierarchy, is the model simply to create a hierarchy internally and then in draw call myViewHierarchy.Draw() or something?

Literally, going nuts, thinking how to position those exactly at the desired places.
During the installation of my Android SDK, I am getting stuck during the process where the manager goes out and downloads all the revisions of the APIs and the SDKs.
It is potentially due to a socket issue that typically occurs when a database query is called and there are a large number of TCP connections... according to googling my error (No buffer space available (maximum connections reached?): recv failed )...
So I just need to know if there is a way, other then using the Android download manager, to download / update my computer with the following Android SDK components:

I am using a table layout in a screen. i need to have both horizontal and vertical scrolls. By default i am able to get vertical scroll in the view but horizontal scroll is not working. I am using android SDK 1.5 r3
Ihv already tried android:scrollbars = "horizontal". I hv read on some forums that in cupcake update horizontal scroll is possible in andorid.
