Android :: Specify Default Style Of Widget
Feb 12, 2009
I create my own widget with its own drawable for background.
So in my styles.xml file, I have this: <resources> <style name="MyWidget"> <item name="android:background">@drawable/btn_mywidget_bg</item> </style> </resources>
In my main.xml, if i specified my 'style' attribute, my background drawable was displayed correctly. <test.MyWidget android:id="@+id/mywidget" style="@style/MyWidget" />
but if I just do this: <test.MyWidget android:id="@+id/mywidget" /> , the background drawable is not display correctly.
Can you please tell me how can I specify the default style of my widget so that I don't need to add style="@style/MyWidget" everytime I use my widget?

In ApiDemo, there is a progressBar demo. It creates a horizontal progress bar with a xml.
<ProgressBar android:id="@+id/progress_horizontal" style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal" android:layout_width="200dip" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:max="100" android:progress="50" android:secondaryProgress="75" />
But how to create one programmatically? If just new ProgressBar(fContext), it is Default ProgressBar style.

What would be the best way to create a theme programatically and set it as the theme of an activity. Not using onCreate, but rather really embed it in the package in a way that if a define a background it will appear even after onCreate finishes. My first guess is to use the PackageManager but I'm not seeing a way through...

I'm trying to cook a rom and i want to set a style (sliding tab) as a default for lockscreen and incall lockscreen. I think i have to edit or add some line in lockscreen_style_settings.xml that is stored in CMParts.apk
esxml
Or maybe i have to edit settings.xml stored in Settings.apk
esxml?
I think I have to edit CMParts.apk, esxmllockscreen_style_settings.xml because when i my backup's datadatacom.cyanogenmod.cmpartsshared_prefs there is a file named com.cyanogenmod.cmparts_preferences.xml that contain's some line's about lockscreen.
Here is the com.cyanogenmod.cmparts_preferences.xml line's:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<map>
<boolean name="pref_trackball_wake" value="true" />
<string name="pref_install_location">0</string>
[Code] .....
I decompiled the CMParts.apk but i dont know which line's should be edited or what to add!

I am looking for a widget that is like ultimate fave that i can use to have quick access to my favourite apps. I like ultimatefave but the fact that you have to open the app before you get the apps up is a bit annoying. Anyone know of anything that is better?

I see there is a TextAppearanceSpan available but no examples on usage. I just want to make the text bold and leave everything else unchanged - is there perhaps a simpler way to do this programmatically?

Gallery in Android is only horizontal scrolling support. And we want make one with vertical scrolling support.
We got plans below. Can anyone give us some advice about which one is right?
1) Linearlayout ( We think it's bad)
2) ListView ( We think it's a good option and get a little worry about performance--too many pictures!)
3) subclass of AbsSpinner like Gallery and do something like Gallery source.
Which one is easy, time-saving and less performance or other problems.

Any View have a constructor public View (Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) which called when View declared with a style attribute So, if I have some class inherited from View class, I can access to declared attributes (like "android:layout_width" or "android:background") via AttributeSet attrs in a constructor. But when I move attributes to style I cannot see attributes and values exists in a style - I want to read items declared in style but I have only styleID in defStyle parameter. Is there some way to read style Items using styleID?

I've developed a fairly extensive application. The problem began when I started programming...my spinners are the solid gray rectangular style (unlike the newer style with the triangle in the lower right corner). When I started developing this app several months ago, I couldn't figure out why my spinners were different (after many hours) so I just ignored it. I'm at the point now of polishing my program and want the newer spinner style. So, I'm beating my head against the wall again. I went to my Android SDK Mananger in Eclipse and updated my Android SDK Tools, Platform-tools, and Build-tools. I have the lastest versions of all of these (22.3 and 19.0.1). When I create a new project, the newer spinner style appears. However, none of my older projects changed. They still have the same old gray, rectangular type spinners. I tried using a "android format" line command I found while Googling, but no luck with that either.I'm using ADT Bundle with build v22.2.1-833290 on a Mac OSX Mavericks.

I'm creating my own View class, and defining custom xml attributes with a attrs.xml. As long as I provide each attribute manually, there is no problem, but
code:...................
The android:text is properly set in my instance, but the borderDrawable is not. I guess this has something to do with namespaces, because inside the styles.xml, the name="mypack:borderDrawable" is not handled by the XML parser's namespace facility, because its inside an attribute value. So "mypack" is in no way connected to "http://some.weird.url.com/seems/not/to/ matter" and adding it via xmlns:mypack... to the stylefile would not help, I guess. In the same file, "android:text" is somehow recognized, even though "android" is AFAIK only a ns-defintion for [url], which is also not declared in that file.
So what is the proper way to set a custom attribute in a style?

I've saw the 'weather widget smoked glass', and tried to find this at the market. When I search for 'weather widget' i get these:
weather widget default
weather widget HUD toggle
weather widget glass toggle
Now, the information says "androidapps toggle skin, don't download if you don't have 'Weather & Toggle Widget'
Search 'Weather & Toggle Widget' or ' weather widget donate' on the market or go lock20.wordpress.com.
First of all, when I serach those strings in the market, I get the same hits as above. Now, I tried the 'Weather widget - Free' application, and that was wrong.
I've searched for 'Beautiful widgets', but find nothing.
Do I need an external application called 'weather widget donate' or something, or am I supposed to use the native 'News and weather' application on my Nexus One? In that case, how do I find/get it?

If so, I'm not seeing it, but I thought I've seen reference to an HTC battery widget. Even the "get more widgets" option doesn't show one. I'm just looking for something small that shows a percentage number.

How can I rearrange favorites and edit the default action for each favorite?
When you got to People and then to Favorites and long press a contact, the only options are:
- Call Mobile
- Edit Contact
- Delete Contact
- Send contact as vCard
I don't see the "default action" inside the edit contact menu. Those were the steps providing in the ERIS forum and it seemed to work for ERIS users, however, I don't see any such option in the Incredible.

I just got the HTC EVO and I have the favorites widget. Well, it asked me to assign a default action to each person such as call, bring up contact info, or email. I accidentally assigned "email" to one of my favorites, and now whenever I press her, it wants to send her an email. How do I change what I set as her default action?

I'm talking about the default clock/weather widget that is on the home screen...
Is it possible to make it so the widget shows weather info for a user-specified location? I was able to add an additional location once inside the HTC Weather app (by scrolling down), but I have had no luck finding anywhere to change the location that appears on the actual home screen.
It wouldn't be such a problem since it does correctly display my location (New York), but it is WAY off in terms of weather. For example, the widget is showing 72 degrees when it's actually 85. That's a HUGE difference and it's bothering me a lot.
I'm assuming it is pulling weather data from somewhere in upstate NY and not from NYC (where I am)? The manual entry I added is showing correct info, but it's very annoying having incorrect data showing up on the home screen and having to click into the widget and then scroll down to get the actual info.

In the new version(s) of Android such as version 2.1, default widget (music widget, news and weather widget, youtube widget) have been restyled to use a black background with a white radial gradient at the top in the middle. I've seen other widgets starting to use the exact same background.However, I can't find this background anywhere. The widget design guidelines.How can I get hold of that background? Ofcourse, I could try to design it myself to make it look like the default style as much as possible but that's seems stupid. :)

The upload and the search buttons don't seem to be doing anything on the YouTube widget when it's on the home screen. When I actually open the program list and open the YouTube app, the buttons work from there, just not from the home screen widget.

I've now had and used my Samsung Moment for a full month now, and I have to say this is the best phone I have ever used.
I carry multiple smartphones on me, usually a Blackberry of some sort, Palm Treos / Centros, iPhone, and now my Samsung Moment. While all the smartphones are really good, the Samsung Moment has been really great.
Despite all the complaints you read here, I have only had a couple of minor annoyances:
1. The Google Calendar widget doesn't default to the current day when you click on it. I have accidentally entered appointments for "today" when I realize a bit later that it was on another day that I had scrolled to previously. I hope there will be a setting to always display the current day in the future.
2. I use Astrid to sync my to do list with Remember The Milk. Anytime I add a new task if I'm using the physical keyboard, and slide it shut and go to the portrait mode for the virtual keyboard, somehow my text is wiped clean and I have to start from scratch again.
The battery life is excellent. Based on my moderate use, I easily get 2-3 days out of my phone, which is as good as my Palm Centro or my Blackberries.So glad I have this phone, can't wait for future updates though to play with.
