Android :: ListView Selector Color ?

Jan 10, 2010

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...

Android :: Selector On Background Color Of TextView

Aug 28, 2010

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?

Android :: Selector Resource Use A Color Defined In A Style?

Sep 21, 2010

I'm trying to use a color defined in a stlyle in a selector but it is causing a Resources$NotFoundException.

First I added a new attribute to attr.xml:

CODE:..........

Then I defined that attr value in styles.xml:

CODE:..........

Then I tried to use that attr in my selector definition:

CODE:................

Lastly, the activity uses the ThemeNoTitleBar style theme in the manifest.

I've also tried creating a color in colors.xml and having it use the new attr but that also fails.

I'm obviously missing something but am not sure what to do to fix it. My intent is to create multiple themes and have the selector use the color in the currently selected theme.

Android : Way To Specify Text Color Selector For Click Event?

Jul 22, 2010

I specified a selector drawable for the background of a layout as below, so when user clicks on the layout, the layout will have a different background. But, I didn't specify color selector for the TextViews in the layout, because there are many TextViews with different colors and I am too lazy to define color selector for them. So the text color keeps the same when the layout is clicked. My questions is, is there an automatic way to specify that the text color is highlighted/changed when the layout is clicked, so I don't have to define color selector for each of the TextViews in a layout?

Android : Add 'permanent' Selector In ListView?

Aug 30, 2010

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.

Android :: Implement Color Selector Of TextView When The OnClick Listener Is Set On Its Parent Layout?

Aug 8, 2010

The layout xml is as below. I have a RelativeLayout, which contains a TextView. The OnClick listener is set on RelativeLayout. The RelativeLayout has a selector background. What I want is, when user clicks on the RelativeLayout, the background of the RelativeLayout should change, and the color of the text of the TextView should change too. Even though I set color selector for the TextView, only the selector on RelativeLayout works. The color selector on TextView doesn't work. How can I implement change of both RelativeLayout background and text color of TextView when user clicks the layout?

Android :: Selector - Listview With A Custom Item_row.xml

Mar 5, 2010

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.

Android :: Overlap Problem With ListView Selector

Apr 28, 2010

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.

Android :: ListView Item Selector To Use State_checked?

Sep 18, 2010

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?

Android :: ListView Selector - Selection Does Not Get Removed

Sep 27, 2010

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.

Android :: ListView Item Background Via Custom Selector

Apr 1, 2010

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:

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.

Android :: Changing Background Color Of ListView Items?

Feb 7, 2010

How can I change background color of ListView items on a pair-item basis. When I use android:backgroundColor in the ListView item layout I can achieve this, however the list selector is no longer visible. I can make the selector visible again by setting drawSelectorOnTop to true but then the selector overlays the whole item.

Any ideas how to change those background colors and keep the selector?

I would rather not change the selector itself.

Authors of GMail application have managed to achieve exactly this so it's definitely possible.
