Android :: Spinner - Don't Display Selection / Set Selection Text Color As Transparent?
Aug 4, 2009
I'm trying to use Spinner as a button with selection pop-up. Basically I want an icon and when user clicks it - the popup list is displayed and user can make a selection. The Spinner happily accepts icon image as drawable background. Unfortunately when I select a value the text overlays the background. Is it possible to set selection text color as a transparent? Or maybe there's a better way?

I am trying to get a Spinner to work in Android. It displays fine and I can select any one of the options in the list. But how do I transfer that to a string?I would have thought in the code below that 'selected' would hold the selected string, but I get an 'Illegal modifier for the local class YourItemSelectedListener; only abstract or final is permitted' error on the 'YourItemSelectedListener'.What am I doing wrong?

I have a spinner selection box on my activity, but now I want to remove the spinner from the main view and make the selection available by an option from the menu button. How do I get the dialog the spinner shows if I click it without having the spinner? Currently I fill the spinner using a SimpleCursorAdapter like this:
Cursor c = db.fetchAllSets();
SimpleCursorAdapter adapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, c, new String[] { DatabaseAdapter.SET_KEY_NAME }, new int[] { android.R.id.text1 });
adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
mSetsSpinner.setAdapter(adapter);
So now I'm planning to remove the spinner from my activity, add a new button to the menu and in the onOptionsItemSelected(...) show a dialog with the list of available selection - just the way it is right now after clicking the spinner object.

I have a Spinner whose items comes from an ArrayAdaper, and I want the Spinner to initially show that no item has been selected. When the user clicks on the Spinner it's DropDownView should display just those items available for selection.
I don't want to add an empty/blank item at the head of my list of items because that means that it shows as an avalaible selection in the DropDownView and looks pretty lame. And if a selection is made I want it to be a valid one.
I tried spinner#setSelection(-1); but that doesn't work. The first item remains selected.
I tried setting no Adapter initially (which provides the desired initial view) and had hoped to configure the appropriate adapter in the OnClickListener, but spinner#setOnClickListener throw a RuntimeException saying "You probably want to use #setOnItemClickListener instead". And trying to use #setOnItemClickListener throws a RuntimeException saying it is not valid for a Spinner.
Surely this is a common use case. How can I set the Spinner to initially show as empty?

I'm binding a data table into a Spinner. But I cannot set the default selection for the Spinner based on a specified identifier which comes from the id column of the table.
How can I do that?

As the title says, i have a Spinner with just a couple of options and a button. I didnt declared any Listener for the spinner, instead of that, what i want is use the button and perform different actions depending on the spinner selected option.
So, i declared a handler in the button option "android:onClick", but once there, i dont know how to access the option selected in the Spinner.

1. I want to use my own color for selecting ui views.
By default, android shows the selected view with background as orange. I want to show the view background color as red.
2. In the same way, I want the same behaviour should be applied to whole application.

So I am new to developing android apps and had a question. I have a spinner and based on the selection I was wondering the best way to call another class / layout.Here is my main class
Code:
public class BestBuyMobileActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
[code]....

I've implemented a spinner with an OnItemSelectedListener event handler. When I initialize the spinner and when a user makes a selection the even handler gets called. What I need is to determine when a user makes a selection. Is there a way to determine in the OnItemSelectedListener whether the event was triggered because of data initialization, or because of a user selection? Am I going down the wrong path trying to do this with the OnItemSelectedListener? Is there a better way to to capture a user selection event on a spinner control?

I am wondering is there any way to create something similar to spinner but which allows multiple selection. I guess we can select multiple entries from ListView but I don't have much space to show all the entires and also I need to show three different categories on the same Activity which you can select from.
Here is what I want to do:
Category 1:
Category 2:
Category 3:

I use AOKP build 25 on my SGS and it worked perfectly before three days ago a new entry in my notification bar showed up and I can't get rid of it (see attached screenshot).
It's German, so in the upper line it says something like "Delete", and below "Text selection". When I click it, the system's memory usage is being opened but it's not going away.
Yesterday I noticed, that my Gmail doesn't sync even all settings are correct and haven't changed ever.

I have a Droid just running stock 2.0.1. What I am looking for is a photo/picture gallery app that simply let's you select the folders that you want to display in the app. I was fine with the stock gallery for awhile, but then I started getting a variety of apps that store pictures in various folders (the worst one being Touchdown for Exchange which puts almost every attachment in a new folder). The stock gallery now takes forever to load up, as it is loading a TON of folders with images in them. Really it makes it almost useless at this point. This was the main reason I switched to MixZing for audio, as it let me narrow my library down to the few folders that actually mattered.

So Sony appears to have included their own IME with their xperia phones.I have an edit box for numerical input that i have specified as number numberDecimal|phone It allows for easy number entry and allows users to enter in decimal numbers.However the IME in the xperia phones is missing the decimal key. Is there a way to specify it should only be using the android IME?Can I specify resources for specific phones similar to how I can control resources for versions of android?

I'am looking for a way to have a webview content selectable in the very same way as the stock browser does.
I should note that Dolphin HD shows exactly the same text select functionality as the default browser (same icons, animation, etc), so it really should be possible. But I can't figure out how.Until now, all i found was this function, which kind of work, but doesn't allow the user to expand/shrink the selection.I just discovered that long touch copy/paste is part of HTC Sense, not Stock android. Still, it'd be useful to find out how to enable that on a webview, even just for HTC users. Anybody knows ?

I kind of have a 2 part question here.
1) How can I populate my ListView so that strings are what is displayed, but when items are selected, a non-visible id value (contact id from phone contacts) is the value that is actually used?
2) I have a ListView that's using multipleChoice mode for item selections. It's popluated with names from my contacts list. When I select an item in the ListView, I want that selected item to trigger a call to my SqLite routine to store the value into a database record. How do I make this event fire when an item is checked in the listview?I had hoped to be able to use something like the onClick event for each checked item, but have made not one bit of progress.

I hope, my issue would be clear for you from my question title. I have three linear layouts in each row of the list view. One linear layout contains an Imageview and the other two linear layout contains text views. These three linear layouts comprise my list view row. But, to my surprise, the listview default selection(orange colored) does not work when I move the trackball of mouse or when I select it from the phone.

How do you do a multiple selection in the default mail app?
My server's spam filter works pretty well, directing most of the spam to my Trash folder, and very little "real" mail. So when I look in my Trash folder I might have 30 messages, and 28 of them are spam. How do I select all 28 of them for deletion in one fell swoop, so I don't have to tediously delete each one one-at-a-time?

On my blackberry i was able to choose whether i wanted Month, Week, Day, or Agenda as my initial screen the calendar opens up to.
Am i able to do this on my Nexus One? I use the Agenda 99% of the time to see what class i have next along with whats ahead in my day. However whenever i open the app it always on the Month section and i can not figure out how to change that. I realize once I've selected agenda it will stay there for the next couple times if i exit it using the home key rather than the back key, however that only lasts for a little while.
How or have another calendar app recommendation. Im using Gcal.
