View 1 RepliesTo give the user of my app an indication which field currently has the focus I am trying to change the background color of some of my fields depending on the current state, however, I am having troubles understanding Androids Color State List Resources:
There is this example at the bottom of http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/color-list-resource.html. If I try exactly the same, i.e. if I want to adapt the textColor , things do work. However, if I try an only slightly different thing, namely to adapt the background color, things do not work and I don't understand why? Why is this so inconsistent?
To make it simpler to understand what I am trying to do, I append my misc. .xml files:
The AndroidManifest.xml file:
CODE:.........
If I run this as shown here, it works, i.e. I get a button whose text color changes depending on whether the button is focuses, pressed, etc.
If I uncomment the lower button, where I just flipped the attribute values for textColor and background I get an exception, stating
... <item> tag requires a 'drawable' attribute or child tag defining a drawable
What the heck am I missing here? Why is that color state list acceptable as a text color but not as a background color? How does one specify a view's background color depending on the view's state?
can anyone help me of changing the background color of a list view?. i am new to android and i really need to know this.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis is my first app so finding my way around bit by bit and have been experimenting a little and would like to change the background colour to a colour from a list.Currently it loads a white background specified in strings.xml <color name="all_white">#FFFFFF</color> This is used in main.xml:android: background=" @color/all _white"Ideally I would like to change the colour in OnCreate() to a colour of my choice. I have tried setBackground Drawable but it doesnt seem to work?This is my code:public class TestActivity extends Activity double dimValPercent = 100; /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super. onCreate (savedInstance State); setContentView(R.layout.main); SetDimLevel(dimValPercent);SetBackground(); return;}public void SetBackground(){getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable( new ColorDrawable (color.all_blue) );

View 2 Replies View RelatedIm trying to change background color when an item is selected. Something like using a color selector, but actually it crashes. I've created a list_selector.xml inside /res/color/.<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"><item android:state_focused="true" android:color ="@ color/ plain_yellow"/><item android:state_pressed="true" android:state_enabled="false" android:color ="@color /plain _yellow" /><item android:state_enabled="false" android:color="@color/ plain_yellow" /><item android: state_active="true" android:color="@color/ plain_yellow" /><item android:color="@android: color/ transparent" /></selector> plain_yellow is a color i've defined in /res/values. I've tried to assign that selector programatically and using the xml, but the app crashes. Am i doing something wrong?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using BaseExpandableListAdapter, and there is a drop-down button (looks like an arrow) on the left side for each parent item to indicate that you can expand that item to view child items. The question is: How can I change the properties of that drop-down button such as its position? I basically want to move it a bit lower in each parent item.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to compose a list with some items expandable and some single items. I wish to have it so that when either a single item or expandable list child is clicked, I can call an intent based on the text of the item.I suppose expandable lists would work, but is there a way to set items in an expandable list so that they don't have the expandable list icon? Should I use something other than a string array?What is the best way to do this?

How to add image in expandable List in parent in android ?
If possible how to customize the child in expandable list?
I am looking to find out how to assign an image to a imageview in each child of an expandable list.
If anyone has any information or links to find out how to do this. code...
is what my adapter looks like at the moment, I have very little experience in customising adapters so I do not know where to start.
1) I have made an customizable expandable List .
2) Where I can customize the child.
3) But in parent(Group ID) I want to change the default icon of the parent.which look like(>).
I am playing around with this example.
http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/view/ExpandableList2.html
I cannot figure out how to attach a listener to the children elements so that I can trigger some action when the user taps on the phone number.
I am using a simple expandable list that is populated by two arrays ( group array for the groups and a multi dimensional children array for the child). The arrays are built dynamically in the program and some group items have more children than others. So I end up defining the highest number as the array size for the multidimensional child array. After populating the child array, some positions are left null, as there are no values for those group items (explained above). When I associate this with the expandable list adapter, the getChildView method throws a nullpointer exception when it comes across a position in child array that does noto have value. I have two questions:
1. Can I make the base adapter skip the shildview method if the value in that child is null? The current implementation of getchildView method has to return a view and even if I suppress the nullpointer exception, it adds a blank element in the child position in the list.
2. Is there a better way of associated multidimensional arrays that are populated at run time? The current set of examples only use hardcoded string array values. Even the cursor adapters examples use very basic setup.
I am currently playing about with lesson 08 here http://insanitydesign.com/wp/projects/nehe-android-ports/ I would like to change the background colour from black to white. In order to do this at the start of onDrawFrame() I have called gl.glClearColor(1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f); This does indeed set a white background screen, but also results in nothing else showing up on the screen! Clearly this is therefore an incorrect method, but why, and how do I fix it?
