How can we use more than one layout file. I have implemented a cutom dialog.That means i have created an layout file for dialog. And one layout file for my activity. But whatever the UI items in dialog layout ile if iam using them by findViewById it is giving me null
I will explain in details here @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); applicationContext=getApplicationContext();
Dialog folder=new Dialog(this); folder.setTitle("Creating folder"); folder.setContentView(R.layout.create_folder); TextView tv=findViewById(R.id.folder_text); //Here folder_text is in my second layoutfile ie in create_folder.xml //In the above statemet i got the null to tv variable. folder.show();
I'm trying to create a simple text based game in which I ask a question based on a movie. The list of movie's is in a text file which I've included in res/raw. So basically I want to have a default string, say "Who acted in", followed by the name of the movie. Could I have the first string (along with a submit button etc) in my res/layout/main.xml file, and follow that with the movies name, after I've extracted it from the text file in my activity, or does the layout have to be defined in one place only?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs 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.
So Im trying to add an imageview to my current xml design - and its working decently. Now my main problem is that I cant seem to find a way to set the attributes for the image like where it needs to be displayed etc.
RelativeLayout mRelativeLayout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.board);
ImageView i = new ImageView(this);
i.setImageResource(R.drawable.blue_1);
i.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
mRelativeLayout.addView(i);
setContentView(mRelativeLayout);
i tried messing around with setlayoutparams but got absolutely no clue what to do with it.
simple question. In a class, if I wanted to set the text to the text value of a string I have, what is the code for that?
I have: TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.string.noFaceFive); textView.setText(textView);
but setText says : The method setText(CharSequence) in the type TextView is not applicable for the arguments (TextView)
is there a set Text to display the text of a string? Serious mind fart on my part.
Is there a way to specify a background in a layout based on OS version?:
android:background_1.5="@color/white"android:background_above_1.5="@drawable/mybackground"
I'm running into a problem where using a 9 png drawable for the background causes a stack overflow exception on a listview item (stack trace shows its related to a child TextView -> drawText()). The layout is simple:
<LinearLayout><ImageView /><TextView /></LinearLayout>
and the background works fine on 1.6 and above. It's just 1.5 that's having the issue. If I set the background to be a color, it works fine.
I've got a ListActivity using the Theme.Dialog theme and windowNoTitle set to true.
Unfortunately, when I do this, the header rows (just normal rows in the list but they look like sub headers) refuse to fill_parent width (instead, they wrap_content - the header text).
I noticed this was not a problem when using the Theme theme so I started narrowing everything down to what was causing the problem.
The answer: windowIsFloating. Theme.Dialog sets this to true, and if I override this to false, then the headers happily fill the parent width.
Is there a way around this (because I would like to set windowIsFloating to true)?
I'm setting background color based on a given state of an object in each row in a list. That part is working just fine but when I set the background color on the outermost layout the row no longer highlights when selected. Probably a specific attribute I'm not setting/changing?
View 3 Replies View Relatedso hopefully this question/problem isn't as simple/dumb as my previous.I've somehow messed up my keyboard settings or language. the bottom right and bottom left buttons now have some Chinese/Japanese text on them and the bottom left button turns on some alternative keyboard options and changes my text output to Japanese.Now I presumed this was simply something in my language settings but I've set them back to UK and still no joy.I'm also using Handcent sms and the Handcent keyboard ui but that's not displaying either. Tried un-install/reinstall but no luck.

View 12 Replies View RelatedMy app Consists an intro page with "Start", "About", etc..
I managed to create a functional version of the app by having the "Start" button call a new layout in which a new onclick listener is defined.
This doesn't seem clean to me that I@m defining a new onClick listener for each Layout I use and wonder how the correct way would be to create individual pages (including my "About" and any other screens I implement).

I've been trying to create a Compound Control in Android 1.5 (as described here) but haven't been able to find any good examples on how to do this using an XML file to specify a layout. Create Custom Component based on LinearLayout, declaring layout in XMLI'm fine with creating an Activity and then loading an xml file using the following in the constructor:
setContentView(R.layout.main);
However, I want to do this in subclass of LinearLayout - so I can use this compound component in other XML layouts. Something along the lines of:
public class CustomView extends LinearLayout
{ public CustomView(Context context) {
super(context);
setupView();
} public CustomView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs)
{ super(context, attrs);
setupView();
} public void setupView() {
setContentView(R.layout.custom);
// Not possible } }
What is the correct way of going about doing this?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI want to find the dimensions of the various views in my layout. My understanding is this can only be done after layout is completed since layout is somewhat dynamic. So, after the activity calls setContentView() and then returns control on the main thread to the OS so that layout can occur, how do I get a notification that layout has completed so I that I can query the views for their dimensions? On a related topic, can I find out the status bar's height or least the screen's full size (from which the status bar's height can be calculate by subtracting my window's height)?
