Android :: Numbers Aligned To Right In EditText
Mar 16, 2010Is it possible to align text in the EditText widget to the right? I do not see any such a property. Am I missing it or maybe there is no such an option.

Is it possible to align text in the EditText widget to the right? I do not see any such a property. Am I missing it or maybe there is no such an option.
I am using a GridView. Four items in a column. Each element is composed of the following layout:So each element is a small image with a bit of text below it. The layout works great on the first pass. However, if an item's text is long, it wraps to two lines. This works ok, until you scroll it in and out of view. By default, all the images in a row are top-aligned. When you scroll a row off-screen, then back on screen, you'll see that the row somehow gets bottom-aligned. It looks like:so the row gets bottom-aligned here. I'm not sure if this is a bug in GridView, or if there's some way to control the layout to always top-align rows. I've tried setting the gravity of the element layout to "top", no good. There also doesn't appear to be any setting unique to GridView to control this. Any ideas?

However, not all postal codes are solely digits, so I still need users to be able to enter other characters.
I've been trying to do this with android:inputType, but by setting the "number" flag, it automatically blocks any input except for number-based stuff. Is there a way to just accept general text, but get the soft keyboard to initially display a more number-based keyboard?
Adding an image on EditText works fine. However, copying an image is another problem. When I insert an image on EditText by using ImageSpan it shows correctly, but I copy inserted image, EditText shows me only 'obj'.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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.
Our app (WordPress for Android) uses a ScrollView for the new blog post view. The issue is that if a user writes a lengthy blog post in the EditText, they are unable to scroll inside of the EditText because the ScrollView seems to be taking over the scrolling action, even when you are in the EditText.
Here's the layout XML (the EditText in question is @id/content):

I am using an EditText. Is it possible to have a part of text uneditable and the rest editable in the same EditText?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe result (builder) is set as text to a TextView. It works just fine if the span is surrounded by text, i.e. when the start > 0 and the end < length - 1, but the image is cut off (shifted up) if there is no text around it. how do I fix that?

i have this layout Code... I want these 2 buttons always appear centr aligned in the linearlayout. I dont want to use hard coded values (as it is upsetting the positions when orientation changes) How can i make it possible ? or is it not possible?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 6 linear layouts(horizontal) inside a main linearlayout (vertical) the first 5 linearlayots keep on changing their heights. That makes 6th [bottom most] layout getting adjusted by its vertical position. I need the 6th layout always on buttom no matter how much first 5 layouts change.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my layout I have in the upper part three views in a horizontal linear layout. When I enter the activity, one of these views must be selected depending on the pressed button in the previous activity. The selection is made using an ImageView indicator that must be centered below the selected view. Could anyone tell me what is the best way to do this?

I am fairly new to Android (find it most fun, btw) and I was wondering...
How can I create an Android CheckBox with the label to the left and the checking button/box aligned to the right (pretty much a switch of the way this widget is drawn by default)? Like the way a checkbox preference normally looks like...
I am looking for the most elegant/short-coded version possible, if there is one. I mean other than creating your own View/ViewGroup with layouts, empty-labeled CheckBoxes and TextViews, etc...
Every time I put a TextView before an EditText element in a LinearLayout, the EditText does not show. When I don't, it does.
I've narrowed the problem down to the TextView's layout_width attribute. If I give it "wrap_content", it works, but doesn't "block" down, and it appears on the same line as the EditText.

In the official Twitter app, in the Tweets activity, if you click on the small down arrow (right side of each tweet entry), a really nice popup appears just above or below the entry.
How did they do this (i.e. position the popup alongside the relevant item)?

Anyone see misaligned titles on their "All apps" screen? Seems every so often (I think following and install/uninstall maybe) all the titles under each app are slid to the right and i usually have to reboot to fix. I know this is a software issue and very well could be a specific app I installed issue; but would like to know if anyone has seen it and know what causes it?

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've installed weather widget donate and when I the clock is displayed on my moto droid screen, it's not aligned correctly. It's bunched to close together and I'm not sure what to do. It seems that all the clocks I've downloaded from within weather widget, it's all the bunched. Any ideas of what I can do? This is annoying as I was really happy to have this widget installed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to populate the text of a second EditText widget with the text from the first EditText widget only when the second EditText widget receives focus, the second widget is not empty, and the first widget is not empty. When I run it and click into the second widget it does not populate. When I remove the third constraint ('etxt.getText ().toString().trim() == ""')) it works. so getText() on the second EditText widget is returning something even though the second widget has no initial value other then the text that is displayed via the hint attribute.
