I'm not very experienced in Java. Is there an easy possibility to get a border and round edges around a LinearLayout? (perhaps with XML parameters)
Or do I have to draw my own widgets.

I can create a shape that is a rectangle with all edges rounded. However, what I'm wanting is a rectangle shape with only 2 of the edges rounded. Is this possible?
I'm essentially hacking together a ListView that looks like a bubble with rounded edges. I'm looking to add a header that has the two top edges rounded and a footer with the two bottom edges rounded.
I have a small project in which I download images from Internet in the form of drawable and use them in Imageview for which I have provided functionality similar to an Imagebutton but without the gray edges. The question is that is there any functionality in Android (similar to IPhone) by which we can crop the drawable from edges to make them rounded edged drawable. Even if its a "not-tested-neither-recommended" method, do let me know. I would like to work on this a bit.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIf I have 2 LinearLayouts split %50/%50 everything is fine. Weights are 1 and 1. As soon as I add a TextView inside the top LinearLayout, it stretches that layout. I use "wrap_content" as the documentation says I should when it comes to weights. As you can see the red and green should be split evenly and text on grey background should be inside red box.
Here is the code:..............
Now if I switch to "fill parent" as follows it actually works but it creates another problem. Here is the code (so far so good):
So looking at above we were forced to use "fill_parent" and we would think like we fixed the problem but here is the problem if we are using "fill_parent" (I took out the textview just to show the problem, textview doesnt make the problem go away anyways):
As you can see I assign the weights 3 (top red) and 2 (bottom green) but what actually happens is they get flipped: The red becomes 2 and bottom becomes 3. Just measure the pixels too see.
Here are the results of the 3 codes: http://imgur.com/iVt8g.jpg
I have a RelativeLayout that has two LinearLayouts in it. One is a bunch of TextViews and EditTexts that make up a form and the other is a ButtonBar that submits the form.
anyways, everything looks great in portrait, but when i switch to landscape mode the bottom TextView/EditText element is being hidden by the buttonbar.
screenshot to show the problem. as you can see some of the "email" textview and all of the email edit text are being hidden by button bar.

Scrollable views such as the ListView have a fade out of the content along the edges where there is more content in that direction. How can I turn this fading off? I know you can change the cacheColorHint as discussed here: http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/listview-backgrounds.html but that is not what I am looking for and will not achieve what I am looking for in this case.
I want to disable the fade completely or be able to reduce the size and or transparency of it. Is this possible?

Others have the sides of the screen cut off so that the scroll bar doesn't show up.
Changing the display resolution doesn't seem to help either.
( This is when viewing full pages, not mobile pages )
Is it possible to change the default arrangement of the Android Gallery? What i meant is can we make the Gallery in a curved path, where the images will be along the curved path and the same time it has all the properties of the Android gallery(which appears to be center locked and horizontal right now..)?

I send my plant inventory spreadsheet to my gmail account each morning. It has six tabs (pages) of info on it.

This is what the Java site www.java.com says: "KVM, the virtual machine for mobile devices, is the counterpart of JVM (Java virtual machine). It is used to run applets and applications written with Java technology on mobile devices. KVM must be installed by the manufacturer. It is NOT available for download or installation by consumers". Now Android has a customized virtual machine called DVM (Dalvik Virtual Machine). Can we compare it with KVM? Wonder if we can further reprogram DVM to incorporate features of KVM to run applets on Android? Same goes for Blacberry, is there a possibility?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm using the following to draw rounded-corner rectangles in my Android application and it seems to be working alright but with one minor problem:
CODE:.......
(Adding labels to the rectF's defined above follows) ...
The strange thing is that the two ends of the rectangle aren't rounded over the same. The left-size quarter circles are noticeably smaller than the ones on the right.
Anybody experienced anything similar? It's weird enough that I might change my mind about the round corners if I can't do anything about it.... And if I knew how to do a screen capture from my Android, I would.
The rectangles in question are 78 pixels wide and 48 tall, if that helps (and since ykatchou may be onto something).
I want a RelativeLayout to have a rounded corner just like we have it in the Iphone.Please let me know how can we do this in Android.

I realized then, that my call button is broken! how it is possible to install Android, because WinMo sucks!!
