I encountered a message like below when opening a custom dialog through menu option.

I'm wondering how I can create a custom pop-up like the one in the screenshot below (borrowed from the Swype keyboard), where I can have a couple of buttons, which each commit a string to the currently "connected" TextView (via a InputConnection). Please note: this is an InputMethodService and not an ordinary Activity. I already tried launching a separate Activity with Theme:Dialog. However, as soon as that one opens I lose my focus with the TextView and my keyboard disappears (and with that my InputConnection is gone).
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am writing a custom component (derived from a relative layout) which has to show a dialog. Is there a way to do this using callbacks like oncreatedialog or onpreparedialog? if not: if i have to create the dialog outside oncreatedialog, i have to "attach it to an Activity with setOwnerActivity(Activity)". How can the custom component access the activity it is used in, when it is used in the activity's xml-layout and not created from code?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a really weird problem, which I am unable to debug so far. thing is. my app needs to download something to work. So in the beginning of the onCreate() method, I check if that something is already downloaded. If not, I pop a dialog up asking the user to download it.My dialog is shown and I am clicking, so aManager.install() is called. I am passing the context because that aManager.install() pops up a ProgressDialog to show downloading progress and spawns a new thread in which everything is downloaded. So obviously before creating my dialog I make a Handler to receive the response from that aManager.install(). And the response MAY vary, because for example the internet connection isn't available (Exception raised and catched and listener called with different code).Now, when that happens (Exception) I would like to call another dialog saying "something went wrong, would you like to retry?" so another call to showDialog(DIALOG_REINSTALL) (this time with another code).thing is the showDialog() gets called (I can verify this by logging) but the dialogs doesn't show up. Instead my application JUST HANGS Does someone have a clue why it's doing this? No exception raised, absolutely nothing from logcat, I can't tell WHERE it's hanging...just see that the method is called and the dialog should be displayed.

I have looked at the Android API and other posts here on stackoverflow, but have not been able to figure this out.
My app downloads files to the sd card. I would like to pop a "loading..." dialog while the file is downloading and then have it disappear when the download is finished. This is what i came up with using the android API:

However the dialog doesn't actually show. when i debug it, it claims that it is showing, but it is obviously not on the screen.
I want to use the speech to text api in android, but I don't want to be slowed down by those dialogs. Is it possible to use the functionality without them?

or you can say I want to show the dialog on launcher after the launch of my application.
In my current application I want to show a dialog having "Force Close" and "Report" option at the time of Unhandled Exception. Could anyone please let me know how to have this dialog? right now if I change default Exception Handler to mine It gets control but I am not able to show any dialog after that. I guess UI thread is already closed by the time handler gets control.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've got an Android activity which grabs an RSS feed from a URL, and uses the SAX parser to stick each item from the XML into an array. This all works fine but, as expected, takes a bit of time, so I want to use AsyncActivity to do it in the background. The line items = parser.getItems() works fine - items being the arraylist containing each item from the XML. The problem I'm facing is that on starting the activity, the ProgressDialog which i create in onPreExecute() isn't displayed until after the doInBackground() method has finished. i.e. I get a black screen, a long pause, then a completely populated list with the items in. Why is this happening? Why isn't the UI drawing, the ProgressDialog showing, the parser getting the items and incrementally adding them to the list, then the ProgressDialog dismissing?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make a custom dialog to show a view in this dialog. This is the Builder code:
//Getting the layout LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_dialog_simple,(ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.rlDialogSimple));
//Change Text and on click
TextView tvDialogSimple = (TextView) layout.findViewById(R.id.tvDialogSimple);
tvDialogSimple.setText(R.string.avisoComprobar);
Button btDialogSimple = (Button) layout.findViewById(R.id.btDialogSimple);
btDialogSimple.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
//Do some stuff
//Here I want to close the dialog
} } );
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(AcPanelEditor.this);
builder.setView(layout);
AlertDialog alert = builder.create();
alert.show();
So, I want to dismiss the dialog in the onClick of btDialogSimple. How I can do it? I don't know how to call the dismiss method from inside a onclicklistener. My buttons have a custom layout, so I don't want to make a builder.setPositiveButton.
I'm getting a NullPointerException while attempting to create a Spinner within a dialog and can't seem to debug it because the code looks solid. Wonder if anyone else has any idea. Any help is greatly appreciated.
protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) { Dialog dialog;
switch(id) { case DIALOG_SEND_PM: Spinner spinner = (Spinner)findViewById(R.id.pm_server);
ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(this, R.array.server_array, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
spinner.setAdapter(adapter);
spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new MyOnItemSelectedListener());
dialog = new Dialog(PM.this);
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.send_pm_dialog);
dialog.setTitle(R.string.send_pm);
pmMessage = (EditText) dialog.findViewById(R.id.send_pm_box);
Button sendPm = (Button) dialog.findViewById(R.id.send_pm_button);
sendPm.setOnClickListener(PM.this);
break;
default: dialog = null;
}
I get the exception at adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
I changed the context to MyClass.this and the exception moved down to the next line, which confuses me. I'm wondering if it is the adapter having a null value but I call everything the same way I have before while not in a dialog.
Relevant XML data:
<LinearLayout> <TextView/> <LinearLayout> <TextView/>
<EditText/> <TextView/> <Spinner
android:id="@+id/pm_server"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:background="@drawable/yblueborder"
android:textColor="#ABABAB"/>
</LinearLayout> <Button/> </LinearLayout>
I spent quite a long time trying to get my first custom dialog box to work, following the example in the Android Dev Guide.
Specifically:
CODE:............
I kept getting a badtokenexception whenever I tried to show the dialog.
Eventually I found a forum posting which suggested changing it to:
new Dialog(this);
Which made the problem go away.
My question is if the example is incorrect, or was the code not intended to be used in an Activity method?
I can't dismiss my custom dialog. I have XML layout with some text, pic and a button for dismissing the dialog.
My onCreateDialog starts a DatePicker Dialog and About Dialog
CODE:.....................
I have written below code for showing a custom dialog
CODE:..................
It is unable to find ViewGroup in above code and is crashing. I have another main.xml file which is set to content layout in this activity. So how can I correct this thing ?
Also I need to add some validation here to this dialog like info cannot be empty !
Alright, so I would like to have a custom dialog, but I cannot figure out for the life of me how to make it appear when the function is called.
CODE:..........
What could I do?
I have a dialog with a custom layout, and I try to close it when I press a button:
private void showAboutDialog() {
dialog = new Dialog(MainMenu.this);
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.about_dialog);
dialog.setCancelable(true);
dialog.setTitle(R.string.about_title);
dialog.show();
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.about_dialog, (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.layout_root));
Button closeButton = (Button) layout.findViewById(R.id.about_close_button);
closeButton.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View view) { dialog.dismiss();
} } );
}
But it doesn't work.

My requirement was to invoke a alert dialog with a string text that gets modified dynamically when the user hits a button every time
for example:
string str="you have clicked "+ count + "times";
where count is an integer variable that gets incremented every time the user hits a button. and when i assign this string to the text of an alert-dialog ,i get the alert-dialog at runtime but with an empty text value...ie. a naked alert-dialog with just OK cancel button.
