View 1 Replies View RelatedI am desperately trying to set TextView attributes of cells within a table programmatically but can't get this to work! Whenever I set layout properties, the field will simply not appear (but not give any error or exception). I boilded this down to this simple example:

This will show three fields, but when you uncomment the five commented line, then NOTHING will appear. Why is that so? Why does setting layout parameters cause my TextView's to not appear? I'm stuck! What am I missing?

I am reading in some data from a REST api and need to generate some buttons based on the information the app receives.
Because I need the same buttons in many Activity screens I have extended Button to make a RachelButton and I set it up in the constructor.
CODE:...............
Then an example of the resource I am using to generate a colored button is this:
CODE:.............
As you can see in the code I am setting the text color and I'm sure that this color exists as a resource.
But setting the text color like this has no effect at all, the text color on the button seems to be a darker shade of the button's background color.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to access the textviews (for starters, eventually replace with imageviews etc) which are stored in the tablerows in the code below.
The line beginning 'log.d' was the part I was working on, trying to get it to print out the contents of the 2nd text view in the first row, but I can only get as far as selecting the tablerow using "getChildAt(i)".
Trying "getChildAt(0).getChildAt(1)" doesn't select the textview as I would have expected it to; says that it's a View and as such, doesn't have this method - though unless I'm mistaken, aren't tablerows ViewGroups, which do have this method? code...

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm attempting to change the background color of an Android TextView widget when the user touches it. I've created a selector for that purpose, which is stored in res/color/selector.xml and roughly looks like that:
CODE:................
The clickable attribute of the TextView is "true", in case that's of interest.
When I assign this selector to a TextView as android:background="@color/selector",
I'm getting the following exception at runtime: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(13130): Caused by: org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: Binary XML file line #6: <item> tag requires a 'drawable' attribute or child tag defining a drawable
When I change the attribute to drawable, it works, but the result is looking completely wrong because the IDs appear to be interpreted as image references instead of color references (as the "drawable" suggests).
What confuses me is that I can set a color reference, e.g. "@color/black", as the background attribute directly. This is working as expected. Using selectors doesn't work.
I can also use the selector as the textColor without problems.
What's the correct way to apply a background-color-selector to a TextView in Android?

Actually, what I want is a textview which can show the progress of something, I know progressbar in android,however,so far as I know, it can not contain any text(am I right?), so, I want to change the background color of the textview to show progress,from left to right gradually.
Is there any other way to do this?

I'm trying to create a game lobby for a project, and I'd like the game's status text to be a different color: red for an "[IN PROGRESS]" game and green for a game that's "[Waiting for x players]". The ListView will be populated with data, and each ListView item will have a game ID and then immediately to the right of that the game's status.
Right now I'm essentially using the Hello ListView code to create my ListView.
(In constructor)
CODE:...........
Then, I have a refresh button that obtains data from our database. It will get two Strings, one for the ID of the game, and the other for the status of the game. If the game status is 0, then it's still waiting for players. If the game status is 1, then the game has started. So, I create a gameItem to add to the gameList:
CODE:.............
This is where I'm stuck. I don't really understand how I can alter the specific TextView when I create the gameItem or when I add that to the gameList. There isn't a way I can see of accessing the TextView's properties. I see how the text of the view is set (through the mapping of the strings to "line1" and "line2", but I don't know how to change any of the properties.
Setting the background color programatically of an android TextView doesn't seem to work.
