I have a subclass of android.app.Dialog and because I am using a light theme, the dialog title comes out as Black on a dark background which is hardly readable. This leads me to the question: how do I change the Dialog title background or foreground colors? Can I do this via a theme? Which property will it map to?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've done almost all things to look it like that of ICS, but now, the only thing I am stuck at is the Text Color of the Title of a dialog. I want to change it to blue like that of ICS.The above is the Dialog of the ICS Rom. Here, the text color of the Title of dialog is Blue. My framework-res.apk is from FroYo, so the Title text color of dialog is white there. This is thing I want to change.
I know that it's in values/styles.xml, but which style inside it?? I see "Theme.Dialog" inside it, there are the following lines:-Which thing under this I need to modify?? Is that @style/TextAppearance" or "@color/primary_text_dark/light", etc.
To 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?
is there a way to make the tile background black ,,, what apk should i edit ?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a custom title bar that I would like to apply to all my activities. I have searched online and found a few ways of doing that however I have ran into a problem. It seems that despite the fact I have a TextView in my titlebar with id @android:id/title, Android will not use the value defined in the manifest in android:label for each activity. I tried also calling setTitle(R.string.myTitle) but it still will not render it! If I manually put some text in my TextView in the xml it shows up fine. How can I have a custom title bar that is linked and makes Android use my manifest values for labels? I do not want to lose the setTitle() or the XML attributes functionality.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to restore the background Color of a View. I have several selectable Views. When the user clicks one of those Views, the following code is executed and the View becomes Yellow:
View newSelection, previousSelection;
...
if(previousSelection != null) {
previousSelection.setBackgroundColor(Color.BLACK); // problem here
}
newSelection.setBackgroundColor(Color.YELLOW);
However, I want to reset the color of the previously selected View. However, I do not know which color it was (I'm setting it to Color.BLACK in the above code). I was not able to find a getBackgroundColor or similar method in the View class. If I had it, I could save the previous color and just put it back when the new View is selected.
How can I get background color and text color (default for child views) of an Activity in Java?
View 1 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?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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?
