Android :: ListView - ExpandableListView As Well - Selector Highlight Problems With Custom Background
Jul 13, 2009
I have an expandable list with a custom adapter. Everything works great but there are two problems.
First whenever a group or child has a custom background color set the orange selector does not show up. If I dont setup a color the selector draws nicely and also the fade away for context menus works.
Second, some of my text inside a list item is linkified. Whenever a link is present the selector does not draw again. It seems that the click event is handled by the internal link view instead of propagating to the list view.

Is it possible to apply a custom background to each Listview item via the list selector?
The default selector specifies @android:color/transparent for the state_focused="false" case, but changing this to some custom drawable doesn't affect items that aren't selected. Romain Guy seems to suggest in this answer that this is possible.
I'm currently achieving the same affect by using a custom background on each view and hiding it when the item is selected/focused/whatever so the selector is shown, but it'd be more elegant to have this all defined in one place.
For reference, this is the selector I'm using to try and get this working:
CODE:...............
And this is how I'm setting the selector:

I have a listview with a custom item_row.xml. I've defined a selector in this way:
CODE:................
And then put into item_row.xml in this way:
CODE:...................
I want 2 things:
When i move with arrow keys, the item selected changed its background. It's works fine with the actual implementation of selector.
When i press a item, the item changed its background too, but it doesn't work with the actual selector.
I try to set also into the ListView android:listSelector="@drawable/list_selector" but it doesn't work neither.

I have a LinearLayout layout with a ListView in it. I've made the android:background of the LinearLayout (I've also tried it on the ListView) be an image that I would like for my background.
This works fine enough. However, when I start scrolling through the ListView, the background often disappears and becomes black. If I move it around some more I may be able to get it to appear again. It would seem that Android is drawing over, or perhaps painting what's behind my background onto the items.

I'm attempting to change the background color of an Android TextView widget when the user touches it. I've created a selector for that purpose, which is stored in res/color/selector.xml and roughly looks like that:
CODE:................
The clickable attribute of the TextView is "true", in case that's of interest.
When I assign this selector to a TextView as android:background="@color/selector",
I'm getting the following exception at runtime: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(13130): Caused by: org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: Binary XML file line #6: <item> tag requires a 'drawable' attribute or child tag defining a drawable
When I change the attribute to drawable, it works, but the result is looking completely wrong because the IDs appear to be interpreted as image references instead of color references (as the "drawable" suggests).
What confuses me is that I can set a color reference, e.g. "@color/black", as the background attribute directly. This is working as expected. Using selectors doesn't work.
I can also use the selector as the textColor without problems.
What's the correct way to apply a background-color-selector to a TextView in Android?

I have 2 questions regarding a ListView in Android:
How can I get the color of the listview's focused row ? I tried to use the ListView.getSelector() method, which according to its documentation should give me what I'm looking for, but it's giving me a Drawable object which I don't know how to retrieve the color from (if possible...).
How can I set the color of the listview's focused row ? Here I tried to use the setSelector() method on the listview, passing it a ColorDrawable object, but the result of doing it is that the whole background of the list view is painted in that color... and this is not what I wanted of course...

I'm looking for suggestions on how to go about adding a ListView selector that is 'permanent'. By this, I mean a single row in the ListView is always highlighted; it should move up or down in reponse to any D-pad presses (i.e. like the default selector) but also remain set/highlighted if the user were to scroll the ListView in either direction (i.e. it's still highlighted even when it's off-screen).
I've looked at using the standard selector mechanism, but am unable to get the selector to remain in place if the ListView is touched (and thus scrolled), so it makes me think that this isn't the best option? Perhaps there's a <selector> "state_*" that I've ignored?
The other option would be to use the onItemSelected() callback, but at first look this appears more convoluted?
Any suggestions/recommendations/experiences gratefully received.

I am trying to style my ListView with two 9-patch background images (16px * 9px), one dark image for default state and another green image for selected and pressed state.
It works except for just one problem that when I select or press one list item, it seems that the selected item overlap the next one a little bit as I can see some pixels of the green background image is on the top of next item.

Trying to get an Android ListView to do what I want.
I want to have a ListView in single choice mode with a custom row layout that has a different background color for selected, pressed and checked (i.e. the choice is shown by a color rather than a check mark - this is what I would normally call the "selection" but selection in android seems line I'm about to choose before I press it)
I thought of trying a background selector with the three states in it. It works fine for state_selected and state_pressed, but not state_checked. So I created a CheckableRelativeLayout that extends RelativeLayout and implements Checkable and used for the view of each row.
A simplified version is shown here:
CODE:.....
bkg_selector looks like
CODE:..............
The colors are defined elsewhere.
This still didn't work. So in the custom ListAdapter I tracked the "checked" row and tried (in getView) if( position == checkedPosition ) ret.getBackground().setState(CHECKED_STATE_SET);
And it STILL doesn't work. How can I get it to do what I want?

I have a ListView. When I click on a ListItem, I set the background of the ListItem (it's view) to another color:
CODE:........
Here is my adapter:
CODE:......
The problem is, if I select multiple rows, then multiple rows have a colored background. I only want the clicked item to have a colored background. So if I click on row 2, I want it to turn red, then if I click row 1, I want row 2 to go back to normal, and row 1 to turn red.

I have a list of checked items. I used the simple_list_item_multiple_choice.xml layout from android from the list. My requirement for this list is- When I check the checkbox of an item, the background color of that row will change. (For e.g. black background to green)- Then when I uncheck the checkbox, the background color of that row will back to original (green to black) Is there any way to implement that? What I want here is different from the orange color when you scroll the list, which is made by default for the list in Android.

I have a ListView with a header and I am able to click the header as if it was a list item however there is no highlighting if it receives focus from the trackball/D-Pad. Basically I want the header view to operate exactly as if it were just another list item in the ListView. Is there a way to do this?

How do I change the original orange highlight color to something else? That is, the color I get when I click in a ListView.
I've tried to set the android:textColorHighlight of the ListView and/or the TextView for the rows, nothing work.
I've manage to remove it by setting android:listSelector="#00000000" of my ListView but I just want to change the color, but it seems impossible.

I've set the row (view) being used in a ListView as non-focusable along with non-clickable and have set the listview's focusable flag to false as well. However, I still get the yellow highlight when I use the scroll-ball on my device. How can I disable the yellow highlight and use my own special view/color instead upon focus?

I hate complaining, but there are issues with this forum. Try searching with the keywords "highlight ListView". It yields 0 results. What's going on here? This post solved my problems, but was impossible to find using the search. A proper search result would have saved me many days work. Until this is solved I think it will cause a lot of uneccessary posts regarding the same issues.

I'm setting background color based on a given state of an object in each row in a list. That part is working just fine but when I set the background color on the outermost layout the row no longer highlights when selected. Probably a specific attribute I'm not setting/changing?

I have to develop one android application.
Here is the scenario:There are many images in a linearlayout. When selected, the layout should be displayed with another(gradient_bg_hover.xml) background. This works well now.
Now, I would like that when I open a new activity and come back to this one, the last selected layout should still be the highlighted one (with the (gradient_bg_hover.xml) background).
Now i have used below code for highlighting the image when pressed:
[HIGH]
LinearLayout ar = new LinearLayout(this);
ar.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
ar.setPadding(3, 3, 3, 3);
ar.setLayoutParams(artiLayoutParams);
ar.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
ar.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#666666")) ;
[Code]...
In OnClick function i have wrote the below code:
[HIGH]
private OnClickListener mArticleClick = new OnClickListener()
{
@Override
public void onClick ( View v )
{
int object = v.getId();
v.setSelected(true);
[Code]...
Here i have to clicked one item means it is go to next activity.afterthat i have clicked back button means the selected item is stay on highlighted with another background.afterthat i have selected another item means its go to next activity.now i have to click back button means these item only highlight with background....but the pervious item also highlighted....
I wish to need the o/p like :
The last selected item only highlighted after click the back button...
So i have used sharedpreferences :
I have declared int prevPosition = -1; globally...
[HIGH]
ar = new LinearLayout(this);
ar.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
ar.setPadding(3, 3, 3, 3);
ar.setLayoutParams(artiLayoutParams);
ar.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
[Code]...
In Onclick method:
[HIGH]
private OnClickListener mArticleClick = new OnClickListener()
{
@Override
public void onClick ( View v )
{
int object = v.getId();
[Code]...
But my background color is not staying after press the back button...

I have made a custom widget, very similar to JTable in Swing. It is not editable, and all data is replaced at once, allowing easy checking for the widest item in each column & custom col sizing at replace time. It is a subclass of LinearLayout, filled with re-usable TableRow Objects, sub-classed directly from View.
TableRow is both Clickable, focusable, & focusable In Touch Mode. TableRow overrides onDraw(Canvas), calling super. It draws the first column in Black with Lt gray underneath. If the TableRow isFocused () , then a filled rectangle is drawn, before the rest of the cols (left or right justified based on data type), and borders. Where do I get the color, orange, to draw the filled rectangle indicating focus? android.R.drawable.list_selector_background seems to be a pointer, value 17301602, not an actual color. Placing any real Color in my code draws things fine. Is this 17301602 transparent or something? Am I doing this wrong, or do I just need to know how to fine the orange?

I want to use a Button in my android app but I want to customize how it looks. However, I want the highlight and selected colors of the button to be the same as the default colors (i.e. the dark and light orange gradients, or whatever the theme color supplies).Is there anyway to get the default highlight/selected drawables and to use that as the fill for my buttons on the selected and highlighted states?

I'm having a bit of a problem with a custom button style. I have the button states (9-patch drawables) set up in a <selector> drawable. The style I'm going for is a button that looks like it gets pushed down, i.e., you can see the front edge of the button until you press it. It works fine for the button itself, but the contents of the Button (or ImageButton) don't move when pressed, even though I have the 9-patch areas set up to move the content area for the depressed button states. It seems like it's keeping the same 9-patch areas no matter which image it's showing.
Here's an animated GIF to help make the problem a little clearer, since I'm awful at explaining things: http://www.crappytools.net/button_problem.gif The button moves when pressed, but the icon inside stays still. I played with the Draw 9-Patch utility, and it shows that the content area in the depressed image should be shifting downwards like intended.
