Android :: Multiple Child Views Created Programmatically Not Working / Make It To Do?
Sep 27, 2009
I need a LinearLayout to contain 3 TableLayouts, and I can't get it to work. This is where the problem is I'm sure:
mTableLayout.addView(mLinearLayout, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT); mLinearLayout.addView(nTableLayout, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT); mLinearLayout.addView(oTableLayout, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT); mLinearLayout.addView(pTableLayout, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
How Do I make this work? I can get it to work just find when I only add a single child view, but when I have multiple children view objects my app crashes.

I have a simple ListView and on that ListView I have placed a number of custom defined Views. The CustomView has ImageView and two TextViews.
The CustomView also has a "stateful drawable" as background, so that the background image (a 9-patch) changes if you press the Row in the ListView. When pressing the Row, the background image changes to a Red-ish thing.
The problem is that when the background changes from the default greyish, all the Views in the CustomView (ImageView and TextViews) still have their greyish background and thus creates very ugly greay boxes on top of the now redish background.
What is the best way to solve that problem? I hoped that such things were handled automatically (as it is done in for example .NET), but I was wrong it seems.

I have a layout that has just a ScrollView visible. It has a relative layout as its child. This layout has several other layouts (mainly text views) as its children. When the text is not big enough, the scroll view does not expand itself to fit the whole screen. Instead, it shows a gap at the bottom where the background shows. I tried setting fillViewPort=true on the ScrollView, but that just made the first child layout (RL1) to fill the screen.

Is there any way to query a root view of an activity for all of its child views even before the root view or its children have been inflated? I guess what I'm looking for is whether a view knows ahead of time what children it will have before it gets inflated, and can I get that list in some way. Bizarre I realize, but I think it will help me with some unconventional automation testing I'm working on. I haven't found anything in the API like this.

Let's say I have a LinearLayout, and I want to add a View to it, in my program from the Java code. What method is used for this? I'm not asking how it's done in XML, which I do know, but rather, how can I do something along the lines of (One View).add(Another View) Like one can do in Swing.

I am trying to figure out how to add a child view to a parent view so I can use the MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE feature to move from one child view to the next. Is this possible?

I am facing problem in fixing the child in particular place in views or layout.
1) Can I fix the child at the starting and ending of Layout directly?
2) Can I fix the child at the starting or ending of the view directly?

I have a number of child views, each child is a TableRow and I need to be able to change the order of the TableRows, such that I can swap the rows into any order. I know there is a method called removeAllViews() but I don't really want to remove and re-create the views if its possible to access and change the order. I really want the display to update as smoothly as possible, taking the minimum amount of time, is it possible?

I've been programming in Android for two years now and just joined an Android project where they are using a TabActivity to host multiple Activities. It's unclear why this is better than rewriting the TabActivity to simply use Views instead.
TabActivity extends ActivityGroup which means TabActivity can host both Activities and Views. But what's the use of this capability? I was under the impression that Activities should be treated as individual screens of an application.
In short, what is an example use case where it's recommended that TabActivity should host multiple Activities rather than multiple Views?

ExpandableListView has a setOnChildClickListener method, but lacks of setOnChild*Long*ClickListener method.
When I added setOnLongClickListener() on child view in getChildView(), whole sublist became completely unclickable (despite of parentView.setOnChildClickListener() present and working before).
How can I enable long clicks on child views?

When using a View within a View, for example an ImageView within a LinearLayout, both of which have xml drawable resources (the LinearLayout as a background) specifying PNG drawables to use for the on/off states, shouldn't children Views receive the focus state when their parent gets focus? So as far as I understand, both my LinearLayout and ImageView should be switching to their focus states right? Apparently not Or, more likely, apparently my implementation is incorrect.
The focus state works on the LinearLayout but my ImageView never receives focus.. I have both Views set to android:focusable="true".

Are there design guidelines to help decide if an application with multiple views should be designed with multiple activities or just one activity and control the back button itself.
I've tried both. My most complex applications using one activity per screen. However, now that I'm successfully written an app with just one activity and handling the back button myself, I don't see any compelling reason to use multiple activities. The one activity application is much simpler and more straightforward.
What advantages of multiple activities am I missing?

I am trying to dynamically create a interface using a relative layout. I would like to align different views with each other and am finding the need to know the id of a previously created view so that I can use them in subsequent layout params.
Is there a preferred or best way to generate or create ids for views that are created dynamically?

The documentation at http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/widget/AbsoluteLayout.html says:
onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b) //Called from layout when this view should assign a size and position to each of its children. So I overrode it like this:
@Override
protected void onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b) {
Log.d("test", "In MainLayout.onLayout");
int childCount = getChildCount();
for (int childIndex = 0; childIndex < childCount; childIndex++) {
getChildAt(childIndex).setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(100, 100, 100, 100));
}
super.onLayout(changed, l, t, r, b);
}
I am declaring the child elements (buttons) in the XML for the layout. This correctly sets the position of the buttons but not the size. The size is being taken from what is defined in the XML (it's a required attribute).

I'm working on an application using xml layouts.
I wish to know which is better:
1. Use few activities and change its contentview
2. Use an activity for each 'view' needed
If both works, in which case which option would be better?

I am trying to create an activity layout that has a top level vertical linear layout like so:
CODE:................
This works ok as long as the wordDefinition text isn't very long. But, when I set the text to something very long, it pushes the back button off the bottom of the screen. Why? Isn't the ScrollView supposed to scroll the text in the child TextView?
I've tried playing with weights (e.g., giving the top text view a weight of .2, the scroll view a weight of .7 and the button a weight of .1, but to no avail.

Here is my screen description: It is a TableLayout and it contains multiple Rows. I have set TableRow as clickable, as I want to go to next screen on click of a tableRow. Everything I am doing through Java programming (instead of XML layout, because number of TableRows changes each time) On next screen, I wanted to display all the views of that particular clicked TableRow. Here the problem i am facing is how to capture particular tableRow on onclick() even and how do I get all the textviews of that particular Row. I tried to set id at runtime, and tried to get id of view, but it's not working, giving error resourcenotfoundexception.

I start a browser and from the browser,I start a video which occupies only a small part of the screen,say the bottom right corner.
Now the browser will be pushed to the 2nd position in the window order and Video will come to the first position. Is it possible that browser can have the control for active window and receive the key events though the video is the Top Most window.

I am working on a graphics application in Android. I have a question regarding MULTIPLE SURFACE VIEWS. Can I be rendering multiple surface views at the same time. Initially, when I had two surface views in the same activity, it didn't seem to work, as it used to show only one at any time. But, with one surface view attached to one activity, is there any way I can keep the background activity's Surface View alive so that both the surfaces get rendered together?

I have a ListView that could have 4 different views for a row depending on the data for the row. I have the ListView working correctly overriding getViewTypeCount and getItemViewTYpe. I originally was trying to dynamiclly update the view type count as new views were inflated by forcing calls to getViewTypeCount because it was possible that maybe one or two views may be all that would be needed. The app never functioned correctly crashing after there was more than one view added. The problem was fixed by setting getViewTypeCount to always return 4. I noticed getViewTypeCount is automatically called on app start-up and never called again unless a force call is made. So I'm just curious if this can be changed dynamically or do you need to know the number of max views you can possibly have and override getViewTypeCount to return that max value.

My situation is the following: I have written one MapActivity class that is able to display a set of places as well as single places. On startup, the application creates an instance of this MapActivity and displays multiple places. If the user clicks on a certain place, then a new Activity is launched that shows the details of the selected place. This activity has a menu item that allows the user to view the place on a map - this causes that a new instance of the MapActivity is created, except that now only this single place is displayed.
The problem now is that if the user navigates back to the first MapActivity (the one that shows multiple places) the tiles won't be loaded anymore + sometimes OutOfMemoryErrors are encountered. According to the Android JavaDocs, it is only possible to have one MapActivity per process. However, I don't want to define my MapActivity as a singleInstance/singleTask, since the user should always be able to navigate back to the first MapActivity that shows multiple places. I have seen that the Google Places app (which has come with Google Map 4.4) for Android uses multiple MapActivity instances. How is this possible?

I have an application using ListView inside Tabs, and I'd like to switch to a separate View(data collection widget) on clicking an item in the List.I'm adding each List's row's children to a ViewFlipper and the items are added at runtime so there is no definite number of views. As such, i would want to navigate/switch to a particular View in the ViewFlipper.Any pointers?
