I am running out of room on my application for buttons, so I want to stick them into some sort of sliding container, like the one at the top of the Astro File Manager application. How do I go about doing this?

I am new to android development. I wanted to make a button on one of my activities that I can drag to slide my current activity page to the next activity page. The button will be in the center of the screen and I want to be able to press and drag it horizontally to one end of the screen while I am dragging my button I can see my current activity page moving. It is actually like when one slides on the home screen and can control the sliding depending on how far he slides his finger on the screen.

Are home screen "pages" exposed in the API? Can you instantiate and control them?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to receive RTSP streaming video with g1. The video file I made was encoded using QuickTime pro, and they are progressive streamable with a hint track. Video is encoded in H.264, and audio is encoded in AAC LC. File container is MP4. (They can be played via sdcard). I used Darwin Streaming Server to stream this file. With sample media player given from android, I changed 'path' to the address like "rtsp://172.29.10.109/test.mp4". The results are really odd. It sometimes (like once per 20~30 times) runs well, but in other times, only audio is played and video freezes after first 1~3 frames.

How is it that my antiquated WinMo 5 SDA can play back xvid, and my new smartphone can't? Microsoft does, yet their handsets can play xvid. Fudge converting to mp4/aac. imo.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an xml page with 3 buttons on all leading to similar xml files. However, the second and third buttons only respond if the first has been pressed (and then you go back a page and press another). If I reverse the order of the buttons in the java file, which ever button is listed first is the one that has to be used befor the others.
Here is my java for the buttons:
package converter.units.kitchen;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
[Code]....
the rest of the app has no errors and functions correctly.
Regarding the hardware buttons on HTC Legend - how are you finding the quality of these to be?
I'm somewhat concerned about my power button especially as I've had the phone for about 2 weeks now and already it's almost pushed down to the level of the phone. Granted that I probably press it no less than 30 times a day to unlock the phone but still...
I also read somewhere that there might be another option to unlock the phone instead of pushing the power button, anyone know what this might be? (If it isn't a myth that is.) Noting the wide range of apps out there, I wonder if it might be possible to change the hardware button for locking, and maybe put it to another button (or to enable some type of rotation between buttons). Any other tips would be great!
My home button too is feeling a bit slack... Can anyone comment on this and how their button feels?
On the bright side, the volume rocker is perfect.
I just got my white Evo and the menu button light is different than the home, back and search buttons. Is everyone's elses like this? I wonder if this is intentional but I can't see why it would be.
View 11 Replies View RelatedWhen I press and hold the quick search button on my desire, I was given the option to chose what app i want mapped to this key (I chose quick settings - very handy)....however when I press and hold the menu button anywhere I get a keyboard popping up which is frankly useless as when I need a keyboard there is always and easy way to bring it up. Is there any way to map other apps to other buttons such as the menu button or even the optical track button?

I need to use volume buttons to control a variable parameter in my application. I use Activity.onKeyDown to get notified when the button is pressed but the media volume is also increased. Android is doing something like below when I press the volume key:
1. increase media / ringtone volume
2. pass the event to my application
Is there a way to avoid increasing the system volume and use volume key only for my application?
Has anyone worked out if it is possible to set one of the buttons on the bottom of the Desire to bring up the lock screen rather than using the power button at the top. Only just got the phone 3 days ago but this is (sor far) the only niggle I have.

I have an application that will have 5-15 buttons depending on what is available from a backend. How do I define the proper GridView layout files to include an array of buttons that will each have different text and other attributes? Each button will essentially add an item to a cart, so the onClick code will be the same except for the item it adds to the cart.
How can I define an array so I can add a variable number of buttons, but still reference each of them by a unique ID? I've seen examples of the arrays.xml, but they have created an array of strings that are pre-set. I need a way to create an object and not have the text defined in the layout or arrays xml file.
Update - Added info about adding to a GridView
I want to add this to a GridView, so calling the addView method results in an UnsupportedOperationException. I can do the following:

But that doesn't layout the buttons in a grid like I would like. Can this be done in a GridView?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been a couple of days trying to solve this thing but I can'f figure it out.The problem is, simple activity, with simple layout, ScrollView -> LinearLayout -> and a lot of buttons inside the layout (within the scroll content). Everything works just fine but one tricky thing. When I click a button let's say at the top of the scroll content and inmediatelly I scroll down to the bottom of the content and I click other button there, nothing happens until I click a second time and all come to normal again.This can be reproduced anytime and it's code independent (i've tried more than 20 scenarios). I've not much experience in android yet but looks like the scroll listener stops the onclick listener or something like that.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a bit of a problem with a SlidingDrawer that I created and that should go over my VideoView. When the activity is opened for the first time you can see the slider above the video and when you tap it, it slides open. However, as soon as you close the slider it seems to disappear underneath the VideoView and is not visible anymore. It is still there and when you tap the location where the handle is located the slidingDrawer reappears, but I would rather prefer if it wasn't hiding all the time ;) If anyone knows what I can do about that and help me out, that would be really fantastic because I have been trying for hours now and I have no idea what I should do. I also haven't found a similar issue or a solution for that.

I'm trying to create a sliding drawer in code, but I don't understand what to do for the AttributeSet part of the constructor.
What do I need to do for that?
Also, how do I define in code where the slider is going to show up?
I'm interested in using it for one of my apps and I was wondering how I can use one of them.
Are there any other similar widgets out there for 2.0+?
I want to port my application on all android devices, and I want to have the right/left animation on the activities transition on all android platform versions. I know that this feature is implemented in the 2.0 version. How can I implement this feature for the lower versions?

It should be placed at the bottom of the page.
It has to contain a set of images and I have to set a background color for the sliding drawer. I saw some sample codes...But I am not getting a clear idea on how to do it.
