I am using WebView in an ActivityGroup and it will throw an exception if WebView show Dialog and complain the activity is not valid. But it's okay if I set the context of the WebView to the TOP activity. So I wish to know how to set the context in the layout xml ?

Is it possible to build a GridView object in XML with 3 columns and 4 rows of Image buttons? It doesn't seem to have similar containment relationship like LinearLayout or RelativeLayout viewgroups.
I want to do this entirely in an xml layout file. When I put ImageButton xml tags inside a GridView xml body, The layout panel in eclipse is throwing an exception: UnsupportedOperationException:addView(View, LayoutParams) is not supported in AdapterView.
Context Menu seems quite handy as long as we are using an AdapterView as we can easily get selected item position in onContextItemSelected from AdapterContextMenuInfo.position Any idea how we can achieve something similar in a TableLayout? In my TableLayout, i have some TableRow and i would like to get the row index in the onContextItemSelected callback like i would do with a simple ListView. I guess i will have to register the contextmenu for each row? but how can tie the row index with the menu? i see no way to do it with registerForContextMenu.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to build my own custom view which should look like the Crysis-GUI.At first I designed a XML-based Layout and made it visible via the setContentView(int resid)-Method. Worked pretty well.But now I wan't to go a step further and draw in my Layout. So I created a new Class, let it extend View and overrode the onDraw()-Method. So far so good.But how can I still use my XML-Layout? I can't do setContentView anymore, so how could the same effect be achieved?
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo my layout looks basically like this:
<ScrollView>
<RelativeLayout>
<BunchOfViews/>
<ImageView android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"/>
</RelativeLayout>
</ScrollView>
I have the ScrollView so all of the layout always is visible no matter the height of the screen. The problem is that on a very high screen, I still want my imageview to be at the bottom. However, a child of a ScrollView dont seem to have a defined bottom. The View is placed at the top of the layout. How can I solve this problem in a neat way?
I have an XML layout with some custom tabs, a heading, and a ProgressBar(main.xml). I wish to add another XML layout(home.xml) to the main.xml layout, as i wish to keep main.xml re-usable for other activity's layouts and simply add things to it as necessary.The problem: after inflating R.layout.home into rootLayout, it seems as though the ProgressBar contained in rootLayout is hidden underneath the content of home.xml.Is there a way to tell certain views(via XML) to float above other views when the layout is constructed in this way?if not, am i forced to use methods such as progressBar.bringToFront() to raise targeted views to the top?what alternatives do i have in z-ordering views when some layouts are constructed using inflation?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've tried to add a TextView before a ListView in a LinearLayout. The result is that the ListView wont show at all. The same thing happens if I put the TextView after the ListView, but then I will only see the ListView. Is there a way to get a text view above the ListView without to much of a hassle?
View 10 Replies View RelatedThis is a followup to this post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3897176/findviewbyid-in-a-subclassed-surfaceview-throwing-runtimeexception Based on Romain Guy's feedback (which I'll accept shortly as it is a solution), I'd like to obtain the calling Activity from within the View, so that I can use it to obtain the desired Text View resource. I don't see any methods in View that return Activity. What is the proper way to do this? Or is there a better alternative for working with TextViews from within another View context. Basically, I am calling setContentView(R.layout.xxx) in onCreate() (as usual), so I don't really have a way to pass in references to additional TextViews unless I awkwardly retrieve the View after setContentView and then make calls on it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHow can I open a context menu for a view without registering it using registerForContextMenu()?
My activity overrides onTouchEvent to detect motion, and if I use registerForContextMenu() it stops working. I'm detecting a long press, so I'd like to forward that request to a method that would build the menu for me, but don't know if it can work that way.
In Android, onContextItemSelected has a single MenuItem argument and so it isn't clear how to identify the view selected. MenuItem.getMenuInfo provides access to Contextmenu.ContextMenuInfo, but while both known subclasses provide access to the target view, there does not appear to be an accessor on the interface.One alternative is to save the View provided in onCreateContextMenu in a private class variable which relies on onCreateContextMenu not being called again in the activity before onContextItemSelected. Another is to use the id of the View for the itemId argument of ContextMenu.add. If we do this, we would then need to identify the option selected from the context menu by using its (possibly internationalised) title.what is the best method for identifying the View selected in onContextSelected?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to re-use 1 adapter (similar to well known ImageAdapter from samples) with 2 different views - Gallery and GridView. I need to specify LayoutParams for the each View returned by getView() method of my adapter. In case of Gallery it should be instance of Gallery.LayoutParams, and in case of GridView it should be GridView.LayoutParams. I'll get an exception for sure if I'll try Gallery.LayoutParams with GridView and vice versa.What is the best way to do that? Can I somehow use "parent" parameter (ViewGroup parent) for that?

The problem is...I can't get my view from my custom layout... I only have an id (int)...
I tried Resource.getLayout(int) => it returns an xmlParser... not very usefull ...

I am trying to do is to embed a custom view in the default layout main.xml:
CODE:......
As you can see the class is called com.lam.customview.CustomDisplayView, with the id of custom_display_view1. now in the com.lam.customview.CustomDisplayView class, i want to use another layout called custom_display_view.xml because i don't want to programmatically create controls/widgets.
Custom_display_view.xml is just a button and an image, the content of which i want to change based on certain conditions:
CODE:..............
I tried to do:
1)
CODE:........
But got this error, "03-08 20:33:15.711: ERROR/onCreate(10879): Binary XML file line #8: Error inflating class java.lang.reflect.Constructor ".
2)

But got this error, "03-08 20:28:47.401: ERROR/CustomDisplayView(10806): Resource ID #0x7f050002 type #0x12 is not valid "
Also, if i do it this way, as someone has suggested, it's not clear to me how the custom_display_view.xml is associated with the custom view class.
I've created my own view by creating a subclass of the SurfaceView class.
However I can't figure out how to add it from the xml layout file.
My current main.xml looks like this:

What have I missed?
My view looks like this

And it works fine like this:

But nothing happens when trying to use it from the xml.

I have a custom View that I'd like to specify the layout of in an XML file rather than through code, is there anyway I can take an Android XML layout file and use it to flush out my custom View's content? I know it can be done in an Activity via the setContentView method, but there doesn't seem to be a similar method for Views.
