Since the absolutelayout is deprecated, how to put a widget (suck as a button) on arbitary (X,Y)
View 7 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to write a little application that recognizes custom events in Android: you hold your finger over a TextView for a certain length of time, and it changes color.I'm using the MotionEvent coordinates and checking if they are within the bounds of a particular TextView, which is within a table.I am just attaching the onTouch listener to the table within the activity.But I get weird errors: the coordinates seem to be off by one view (i.e. if I touch the view below the view above reacts); or sometimes one will react, and the other will not. Any idea what might be going on?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI understand the problems with assigning a fixed position to UI components, but I would like to use AbsoluteLayout in a way such that the position of the components are chosen dynamically, calculated based on the screen size.Here is why I am thinking this may be easiest:I want to display a nXm grid of imageViews on the screen (n,m chosen by the user) with 0 padding betweeen the image Views.With absoluteLayout, I could easily choose the size of the imageViews and in a way that maximizes the amount of the screen that is used.The reason that using relativeLayout or LineraLayouts may not work for this is because when a user touches an image in this grid, I would like it to "pulse" (quickly scale larger than back to its normal size).If I scale an imageView using realtive or linear layout,it would resize the adjacent imageViews (since the padding is 0), which I don't want.
I would prefer permitting temporary overlapping of the imageViews.This is currently the approach I have taken, except instead of changing the position of imageViews, I am just drawing bitmaps to the canvas at the locations I calculated.I can't use the animation framework, however, on bitmaps that I draw to a canvas.Is this an acceptable use for AbsoluteLayout, or is there a better way to achieve what I want to do here?
I have just realised that AbsoluteLayout has been deprecated in the latest sdk, however I have designed my apps based on AbsoluteLayout and it is very difficult for me to remove them and change it to a different layout. Can someone help me as to how I should proceed? Absolute layout was really helpful in positioning the elements to be accurate. One could always had different layout definitions for different screen sizes, and based on the current width and height the required layout can be set. Removing of AbsoluteLayout is creating a lot of frustration to me as I have already designed most of the things using it. Somebody please help me out.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI see posts saying that FrameLayout is the alternative, and that I should use margins to position things (this strikes me as wildly counter intuitive, but ok... if it works, I'll take it). However, I can't get it to work, so, I'm looking for assistance. I'm aware of the fact that this may mean different things on different devices. I'm ok with that. I simply need a way to, programatically, and at run time, place an item at a SPECIFIC location. I don't want to rely on gravity (or the laws of thermodynamics). I just want to specify a location and have the element appear there :)

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe documentation at http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/widget/AbsoluteLayout.html says:
onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b) //Called from layout when this view should assign a size and position to each of its children. So I overrode it like this:
@Override
protected void onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b) {
Log.d("test", "In MainLayout.onLayout");
int childCount = getChildCount();
for (int childIndex = 0; childIndex < childCount; childIndex++) {
getChildAt(childIndex).setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(100, 100, 100, 100));
}
super.onLayout(changed, l, t, r, b);
}
I am declaring the child elements (buttons) in the XML for the layout. This correctly sets the position of the buttons but not the size. The size is being taken from what is defined in the XML (it's a required attribute).
There are the following layout options to create interfaces for android.
AbsoluteLayout
FrameLayout
LinearLayout
TableLayout
RelativeLayout (and some more)
Which of the following is most suitable for designing simple games? Guessing that the absoluteLayout is easiest, but will it be problems with different screen sizes? What do you recommend?
