I have some text data in database which I have retrieved in a Cursor, and I am displaying it in a ListView. What I want to do now is that when you select click a particular row in the list its text content should be displayed in full screen and the user should be able to scroll horizontally (like scrolling between iPhone home screens) to view the contents of the Cursor.

I've been looking around for quite some time now, and I can't get a straight answer for my question. It's quite simple: How can I get a nice scrolling text just like the long app names in the Market when you select an application?

View 1 Replies View RelatedWithin the last week I have been experiencing some problems with my Incredible. First it started not showing on the screen what I was typing when holding the phone horizontal. If I had it in the vertical position it would show the typed message. Took to Verizon while I was out of town. While the phone was on they took the battery out and then reinstalled. It worked fine. Upon returning home I noticed that the Weather app said my "current" was the town I had visited the weekend before. Tried everything but can't get it to acknowledge my present city. Now I go view my photos that I had taken and there are absollutely none there. I even assigned one to be my screensaver which is still showing as the screensaver however it is not in my Photos/Camera.
View 6 Replies View Relatedis it possible to have both Scrollbars together. My Application is too big for just one of them. I tried it with a ScrollView in a HorizontalScrollView Layout, but it supports only vertical or horizontal scrolling at the same time and not crosswise. It would be nice to have a scrolling just like in the Browser of Android. Is this possible?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIts been a while since I've done any coding, I'm new to android, and unfortunately my first job is rather tricky. My program need to display horizontally scrolling text and images, but it need to set the scroll speed quiet finely. Now I've been looing at some examples with TextView and some also use android.widget.Scroller.
Now I'm pretty sure I'll have to write this from scratch, but what i want to know, is there a clear way that i should use in creating the class. I could try expanding on the TextView class and use its methods. Or should I just write a class to treat text and images the same?
Instead of the currently implemented vertical scrolling in the GridView control, I want to scroll horizontally. So, I want to be able to move left and right by swiping left/right so the contents scroll horizontally. I have tried setting the setNumColumns()..

View 4 Replies View RelatedIt seems like the best way to create a horizontal scrolling list of images is to use the Gallery widget. I need to display sidebar text with each image.The examples I have seen showing how to use the Gallery widget only show images.

View 4 Replies View RelatedSo my application has a large amount of textual data. Up until this point I've been using forward and back buttons to navigate from section to section. I was impressed with the horizontal scrolling of the Ebook reader from Alkido that is available on the store which uses a horizontal fling gesture to flip the pages. Does anyone have any experience doing something like this? I've done it a number of ways, but none seem to be very smooth or efficient.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've set up a horizontal scrolling system using FragmentPagerAdapter. Is there a way that I can click on an TextView/ImageView and then it'll take me to one of my Fragments? I want to improve the UI of my app by giving the user the option to scroll left and right but to also click a few buttons on my first Fragment to go to each of the screens too.
I tried an ordinary OnClickListener but that gives me a force close. Mostly because I used startActivity() and I'm not trying to start an activity rather a Fragement but I don't know how to do that.
Overall maybe there is an easier way though, I've seen apps that have horizontal scrolling and when you click a button on one page you see the scrolling animation take them to the requested page.
Like I said I have an ordinary FragmentPagerAdapter set up with all the code it's just getting this final bit of the puzzle.
I'm looking for a way to insert data into a cursor that is separate from the SQL database it retrieves the rest of the information from. Is there any way to to this, or is there a different way to add more information to a list view item? What I'm trying to do is to use a date column for each entry in the list to calculate the number of days until that date (and then put that number in the list item). I know how to get the value, but I just cant find a way to put it into the list without it being in the cursor.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have an Android app that has both CursorAdapter based ListViews (backed by sqlite) as well as custom BaseAdapter based ListViews which are built on the fly from JSON pulled down from a server.
The data displayed in both is identical - an image and a couple of TextViews. My Cursor-based ListView has 3000 rows, the JSON-based ListView has about 30. However, scrolling down the list is significantly faster for the Cursor-based adapter. For the JSON-based lists, the data is all fetched before the rows are made visible. Images for both types of lists are downloaded on-demand.
I have both ListViews configured identically - both with fastScrollEnabled, scrollingCache and smoothScrollbar set to true.
I'm looking for leads on how to go about trying to figure out what's going on here and to potentially fix it so that the JSON-based ListViews as as fast as the Cursor-based ones.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have not found an example yet with a solution to the following task.
I have a SQLite database with two tables- BOOK and AUTHOR. I execute a query on the DB that uses a join and results in a cursor that looks like this. code...
New authors and books can be added to the database at any time, and I also need the user to be able to remove books, hence the [ ] checkboxes.
So i have two row layouts, row_author.xml & row_book.xml. I detect when I need to show a row_author subheading by seeing when the current author has changed compared to the previous row. But I have realized that the rendering of an Author Row will then move the cursor forward one row and jump over their first book.
Can anyone suggest a good approach to presenting data like this? Is there a much better way to do this?
How can I create a list Array (the list display First Alphabet when scroll) with the cursor data?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a ListView populated via a CursorAdapter. I give my user the ability to alter the data in the list. For example, the user can mark a row as being unread (the data are messages).
Suppose my user marked a row unread. Would a proper implementation mark the row in the database as read and then requery the Cursor?
The structure of some of my activities is a simple ListView with a custom CursorAdapter. The cursor is created in onCreate() on the activity from a SQLite database. The problem is that querying the SQLite database can be quite slow at times with lots of data (and let's assume I've already optimized the sql query as much as possible). Because it occurs in onCreate() on the UI thread, I get ugly black screens when opening the activity, which sometimes turn into ANRs, on a slow phone like the G1. I want to load the cursor in a background and show "Loading.." on screen while doing so. I saw AsyncQueryHandler used extensively in the framework, but this seems a solution geared more towards Content Providers and not application-local SQLite databases. I then thought of trying to load the cursor in a background thread, but realize that this might be problematic, as the CursorAdapter should be instantiated in onCreate() and should take a cursor as a parameter. The latest thought I had was to instantiate an empty MatrixCursor in onCreate() and pass that to the cursor adapter, while kicking off a thread/TimerTask to query the database. Then, on database cursor load, call cursorAdapter.change Cursor to the properly filled cursor. This doesn't seem very elegant and seems quite wasteful, however.

I am looking after an alternative way now. As what I ideally want is:
Get order of contacts by a custom order held in my database (this involves joining CR with my DB cursor, and doing an order by, later seams it's not possible with CursorJoiner) but there is more, if the join is not unique I want to sort by contact's name as last measure
Which is impossible using Cursor and Joiners, because of the missing feature of order bys, also I need to return a Cursor, as I will be using the in an ExpandableList
Also this translated to TSQL it would look like
select * from contactsdata
left join category on contactsdata.catid=category.id
order by category.pos asc, contact.display_name asc
So I am looking now after an alternative. I have in mind to load in a temporary DB table all data from CR, then do the query on the temporary table where I can join tables and do order bys? How does this sound to you?
Maybe I'm going about this the wrong way, but if so, please correct me. Here is the situation: I have a query which returns URI strings for ringtones stored in a database.
I am trying to add a "column" to this cursor with the ringer "Title" (since this can change outside my program). I can successfully user RingtoneManager to get the title, but I cannot figure out how to add this "column" to the cursor data for later use. Here is what I have so far: Code...
The graphic designer of the Android app that I'm currently building has come up with a two-color line as a separator between items in a layout box: If you look closely at the image, you see a darkish gray line, with immediately below it a very light gray (almost white) line. The lines should resize to the width of the container. What is the best way to implement this in the UI?

But ProgressDialog is not shown.(I guess the reason for it is the thread is not complete and android invalidate only when thread has completed).
