Android :: Making Same Height Of EditText And Button
Aug 18, 2010
i have an EditText and a Button in my LinearLayout and i want to align them closely together so they see seem to belong together (edittext + micButton for speech input). Now they don't have the same height and they aren't really aligned well (button seems to be a little lower than the EditText). I know I can apply a negative margin like -5dip to make them come closer together, but is there perhaps a better way to do this? Set them in a specific container/layout so that they will automatically have the same height and no margin between them?

Here is the code:....................

I want to put a button next to a EditText and I want their heights to match.For example, from the built in Android browser:
The Go button is the same height as the EditText field.I know I could wrap both these views in a parent layout view, and set both of their heights to fill_parent, and that would make them match.However, I would like to do this without having to give the layout a static size.I would rather have the EditText take whatever height it needs based on the font size and then have the button next to it match whatever height that might be.Is this possible with an xml layout?

CODE:............
I have this at the top of my application. When the application starts, the EditText is orange highlighted and has a cursor in it; when the EditText is tapped, the soft keyboard pops up. The user uses it to type into the EditText.
However, when they click the Button, my onClick method fires and does everything it's supposed to, however the soft keyboard stays on screen and the EditText is still highlighted with its cursor.
I also have, at the top of the Button onclick: findViewById(R.id.name).clearFocus();
In spite of this, the EditText does not seem to clear its focus. How do I make the button actually act as if it is submitting the form?
Also, I do not transition to a different Activity on the click of the Button. I suppose that is the typical case, and probably the reason why they don't bother hiding the keyboard. However I want to keep the search box and button at the top of the screen, so I just dynamically fill and add views to the screen when the Button is pressed. How can I achieve my desired behavior?

I want to simply set the height of an EditText component to be 50% of the user's screen height.
I'm creating the initial layout from an xml file (main.xml), loaded in the Activity's onCreate(Bundle). From the xml configuration, I understand how to set the EditText height to a literal value, e.g., android:layout_height="150dip", and from the onCreate(Bundle), I understand that I can call setHeight(int) on the EditText component, but the call to setHeight(int) appears to be ignored, and if I don't have the layout_height setting out of the xml, then I get an exception when my app is starting, complaining that the height value is required (and the app dies).
Is there a way to set the height from the xml based on the user's screen height? In other words, within the xml, is it possible to retrieve the user's screen height and use it to calculate a value for a component?
(I'm placing the EditText in a LinearLayout with vertical orientation.)

I am wondering if there is a way to override the onkeydown for an edittext view without making your own class? I just want my user to type something in and hit enter, i put up the flag so enter doesn't actually do anything now, but I want it to launch a function ive made.

I have a button on a relative layout that hugs the buttom of the parent, but since there is not much above the button, the height of it is massive and extends to the object above it.What kind of code can I use to make sure the button stays at a normal height while still hugging the bottom of the parent?

I am working on layout in android XML in which I would like to set a buttons height to match it's width when setup to fill parent. Obviously this number will change based on screen size, so I cannot use a set pixel size. Can someone help me with getting the button width based on screen size and then passing that to the height setting?

I've put an EditText and Button into a horizontal LinearLayout but unfortunately the button is not aligned with the text field. In the Hierarchy Viewer the text field has a absolute_y of 30 while the button has 32. Please see screenshots of the Hierarchy Viewer here: http://picasaweb.google.com/sj1981/Android

I am creating a button programmatically. It is rounded and has a gradient background, and works fine and looks nice, but I couldn't do two things I wanted:
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?
For reference, this is the code I'm using:

I'm getting null pointer exceptions when I try to initialize Button and EditText objects in global scope, can't figure it out. I've commented out everything but the bare minimum for the app to display my layout, but this still causes a crash: private EditText addmoney = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.addmoney);
R.id.addmoney definitely, definitely exists. So what the heck? Is it impossible to declare EditText in global scope? I need to be able to call it from both onCreate and onPause in a class extending Activity, is there maybe another way I should be doing this

I have a setup view where the user can enter their name and email and click done when they are finished which navigates them to another activity1. When they are in activity1, and they hit the soft back button on the phone, it takes them screen where they entered their name and email. However, the name and email EditText fields are blank. In the view where the name and email are entered I looked to see if onStart, onCreate, OnPause, onResume,... where being called after the back button was hit, but they are not. Do you know how I can make it so that the EditText fields have the information that was previously entered.

If I have the following:
CODE:..............
How can I get the body (second EditText) to fill the rest of the screen, but still have the scrollview kick in when the contents of the body are too long? Like a height="wrap_content" and minHeight="fill_parent"
layout_height="fill_parent" seems to not do anything if you put them in a scrollview
A working example of what I want is the email app compose window
I tried this and the EditText elements act like they are wrap_content and no filling is happening. Just scrolling if you type enough

I've added some standard buttons from the Form Widgets tab and successfully got them opening new windows which display additional buttons.
I would like the button that was pressed, to change appearance and continue to look pressed in after it is selected.

I am having problem with a GridView within a RelativeLayout, which is again within a ScrollView. The problem is that the height of the RelativeLayout is not following the height of the contents of the GridView. When there are more than one rows, the GridView is clipped and a scrollbar appears, which is undesirable. I have tried to illustrate my problem using an screenshot from the Android hierarchy viewer. You can see how the red RelativeLayout box has clipped the second row of the GridView. I am pasting the XML layout of the page (page.xml) and the individual grid item (griditem.xml). I have used the following code to inflate the grid items in the gridAdapter code:
CODE:.................
What I should do to have the height of the RelativeLayout follow the full length of the gridView?

I have a bunch of EditTexts in my Android application, each with InputMethod set to numberSigned. My target device does not have a hardware keyboard and thusly uses the software keyboard for numeric entry. Android attempts to be user-friendly and replaces the standard "Done" button to the right of the entry box with a "Next" button, probably because it recognizes the presence of other EditTexts My application does not need this functionality, and in fact impairs the functionality of the application. How do I remove or disable that functionality?

I want an EditText to look like TextView but still behave like EditText. I've tried applying TextView style to my EditText in my layout.xml file, like this:
CODE:............
But I get an error within xml editor: "Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'style' with value '@android:style/ Widget_TextView')." It is strange because @android:style/ Widget_TextView definitively exists - I double checked it in code via android.R.style.Widget_TextView. Another strange thing is that I don't get android:style offered in the xml editor while typing? There is android:id, android:text and everything else.. but not android:style?
I consider the hard way (making EditText look like TextView) to be: extending EditText and overriding it's onDraw method.
