Spinner with checkbox items, is it possible?
How can I create Spinner with customized items? Normally it is possible to have spinner items with text and checkboxes on the right, but I would like to have one part of the item's text black and the second part gray. I tried to create custom ArrayAdapter for the Spinner but I just can't figure out how to do it.

personalinformation = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.SpinnerCategory);
ArrayAdapter<?> adapterDefaultpersonal = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(Animals.this,R.array.Animalinformation,
android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
adapterDefaultpersonal.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
personalinformation.setAdapter(adapterDefaultpersonal);
personalinformation.setSelection( getSharedPreferences("", 0).getInt("SpinnerSelection", 0));
personalinformation.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener()
{ public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent,View v,int position,long id) {
if(position==0) { } } );
This is the spinner code I am using array of text list these text replaced to drawable items in to spinner how can implemented some solution I am new in android.
I am trying to change the text color of the spinner list items individually. I would like to be able to color the top three texts black and then the bottom four grey. This way the last items look disabled, but I still want to be able to capture the event when they are chosen. I haven't been able to find any documentation on how to do that. Alternatively I would like to disable som list items, but still be able to capture the event when they are chosen.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an android spinner that's populated by a list of strings using an ArrayAdapter and it operates fine, however because of the way the spinner is displayed I'm running into a display height problem with the list items.
At first glance it would seem that the ArrayAdapter can use a single layout for displaying options which leads to the problem I'm having. When displaying the current item in the spinner (when the user is not selecting a new item from the list) the spinner pads the text so that the spinner is a reasonable size for clicking on. However when the user taps on it and brings up the list to select a new item, the list items presented are way to small height-wise. If I use an item layout that presents the list items at a reasonable height, then the spinner itself becomes exorbitantly huge due to it's own padding of the list item.
Any ideas on how I can manage the height of these two item display modes so that effectively they display with the same height value instead of the spinner height being larger than the list item display height?
How can I display a particular array of items from a database (SQLServer) in a Spinner of Android?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to change the items in a list view based on a value that gets selected in a spinner that is in the same activity. Is there a quick way to do filtering on the list adapter data based on that value, or should I go the long way of changing my adapter implementation for easy filtering?

<CheckBox id="@+id/checkbox" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

I use this code to generate a spinner in my app:
code:.........
On my device (Motorola Milestone) and in the emulator this looks like the standard gray spinner widget.
On of my colleagues uses a Motorola Backflip and on his device the Spinner is black. Now its very hard to read the font in the spinner.
What do I have to do to use my own view for the spinner? I don't mind to have the gray spinner on all devices, but it should always look the same on all devices.
I have an xml layout file which contains a few widgets including a Spinner
I want to display a list of strings in the spinner, the list is generated at runtime as a result of a function so it can not be in arrays.xml.
I tried doing:
CODE:...........
But this crashes my application.
I have a spinner 'aperture' set up with a list of numbers, and a spinner 'mode' with two options. When a button is pushed I need a calculation to run using various inputs, including the current selection from 'aperture' and a value derived from 'mode'. How do I call the value of a spinner so I can use it in a calculation?
Also, how do I use the spinner 'mode's selection to set this other value before implimenting it in the calculation? To be more specific, if the spinner is set to Small then the value I use in the calculation is 0.015, whereas if Large is selected I need to use 0.028
My other inputs are EditText views, so right now I am set up like this:
CODE:............
That is not the actual equation, it is just a test to make sure everything connects properly. How would I call the value of spinner 'aperture' and the Small/Large spinner 'mode'
I have a spinner widget in my activity which lets users pick a list name.
Normally, the function of the spinner is to switch between lists but for a couple of instances, I swap out the selection change listener to perform a different function with the same list of options. Once the selection has been made, the old listener is restored and life goes on.
This is a bad and buggy arrangement. Instead, I would like to have a function that just takes a selection listener and some other parameters and shows a popup list that's populated by the same cursor (or and identical cursor) as the spinner, without using the spinner itself.
Is there any way I can do this?
I am trying to populate a spinner depending on another spinner's selected item, my code is the following:
CODE:.................
what is intriguing me is that the first spinner onitemselection works perfectly ( I can see the values in LogCat) then when I change selection of the 2nd spinner I am gettging an error on this line: String selected= (String) s2.getSelectedItem(); So the compiler gets insisde then onItemSelected function of the 2nd spinner but throws an Handler exceltion on s2.getSelectedItem()
why? it works perfectly for the 1st spinner.
I am trying (as many are doing) to populate a 2nd spinner out of the first spinner selected item like this:..............

However, there are some configuration items I have a big issue with as it relates to the 'look' of the email (coming from a BlackBerry).
1. Is there any way to have a single folder show my received items and sent items combined? My BB had this and it was very useful.
2. How can I edit the way my folders are displayed at the top horizontal bar? The sidescrolling folder display is awkward, it puts my inbox first (good) but then all subsequent folders are listed alphabetically; it pays no attention to their order on my desktop and also shows sub-folders of other files. Any way to change this?
3. Is there a way to change the way emails show as unread? The difference b/n read and unread is only a shade of grey, and difficult to see outside.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a horizontal LinearLayout. This LinearLayout has a checkbox next to another LinearLayout. The layout width/height of the checkbox is wrap_content, whereas the inner LinearLayout is fill_parent/wrap_content. The layout_weight of the inner LinearLayout is set to 1.
I've tried to add some android:padding around the checkbox to give some space around it, but no padding is given. I've also tried android:paddingLeft/Right/etc. How do I get some padding around my checkbox?

I have simple list to be filled in from the database along with a checkbox. I need a handle to all the checkboxes selected. Whn the CLEAR button is pressed at that point I need the row ids of all the selected check boxes to delete them. To do this :
My list.xml file looks like this :
CODE:......
and my data_entry.xml looks like this:
CODE:............
Now: I have list.java file where I am populating the list as follows:
CODE:.....................
Now where do i give the handle to the heckbox cause anywhere else it would give me a null exception as the data_entry contains the checkboxes. Plus I need a listener to handle the checkbox status?
How can I have a checkbox in my ui alter my ui live? For example, if the box is unchecked I want a spinner to be displayed, and if the box is checked I want a text box to be displayed in place of the spinner. I know how to create the checkbox and check its status but I don't know how to hide and reveal other elements in an activity.

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 have a ListView with 5 items. Each of the items can be long pressed to open a Context Menu. The Menu has 5 options and I want them to be selectable, by having a check box. I know of the multiple choice listview but was not sure how to have this checkbox feature in a ContextMenu.Does anyone know if this is possible and if so, how?
