View 1 Replies View RelatedRight now I have a class that extends LinearLayout and builds the view inside of the constructor using a series of addViews. I wanted to move this into an XML file, so I have the same view defined there. My problem is that I can't figure out how to load the XML file in the constructor of the derived class. I looked up the LayoutInflater stuff, but I wasn't entirely sure how to use it in that context. Do I need to call addView() with the result of the LayoutInflater? Is this even possible? The other issue is that the context object that is passed in doesn't have the LayoutInflater methods. I'm not sure if I need an instance of Activity to do that.

How do I set up an xml layout where an OpenGL view is part of it? As I do now is set the OpenGL view as the only view with setContentView(). But I would like to create an xml layout that includes the OpenGL view. Lets say I want to have the OpenGL view mainly and a small TextView at the bottom.
Is this even possible? Or can an OpenGL view only be the one and only view?
In my app I want to create something like this: I thought to put five buttons inside a linear layout, but the problem is how to show the inner items at run time. Every time i click on a button i want to show the proper items and hide the others.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to start an activity from a view? I have this nice view that renders these menu buttons and when they click a particular button (Trapped in an onTouch event) I want to start the "clicked" activity. It seems that there from my view startActivity method is uncallable. So that leads me to believe that there is no way to do this, in which case I guess I am asking, what do I do here when I want this menu to have a view that animates drawables and can get touches to know what "button" was pressed to know what activity to start?

I have in many of my screens that re mostly constructed of LinearLayouts a FrameLayout that should take up the bottom leftovers of the screen (using layout_height="0dp" layout_weight="1") inside it there's a FrameLayout with gradients background and in it's middle with some padding lies a button with some text, naturally i need the text and onClicked properties to me different from screen to screen. I considered using <include > tag for the above compound in my layouts, but as far as i can see i can't really change (at least not in xml) the button text and callback, is that really so?

I'm able to successfully use a ScrollView inside the layout xml file for an application.

I have read the Android UI trick 2 on Android developers, which tells people how to include a layout in another layout file multiple times, and give these included layouts different id. However, the sample here is overwriting the layout id, not the id of the views IN this layout. For example, if the workspace_screen.xml looks like this: And I include it three times in another layout file. Do I end up with three TextViews with id firstText, and another three with secondText? Isn't there an id collision? And how do I find the secondText TextView in the third included layout with findViewById? What should I input in the findViewById method?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an application with contains multiple activities. The main activity will start the others ( use startActivity() ) depends on user event, when an activity close, it calls finish() and return back to main activity. It appears to behavior like that.
However, the "problem" I see is main activity's onCreate function is called every time. I think the the main activity should be placed in the activity stack and simply push to front when others exit, therefore only onResume, onStart are called. Is there some flag I need to set or I misunderstand the activity behaviro?
In child activity, besides calling finish() or startActivity for main activity, what is other way to move main activity to front?
I created an application which enables the user to set whether he wants to receive notification while the application runs in background mode. If the notifications are enabled an activity should be started (the dialog should appear on the screen).
I tried to enabled it the following way:

This is the method from main activity. When onPause() is executed isRunningInBackground is set true.
When I tried to debug it when the main application was running in the background the line
startActivity(intent) had no effect (the activity didn't appear).
Does anyone know how to midify the logic in order to start an activity from the main activity when the main activity is running in the background (after onPause() is called)?
I'm trying to build an activity that has a checkbox on top, a button at the bottom, and a bunch of other widgets scrolling in between. Conceptually that'sWhen it renders I get the checkbox at the top, the stuff scrolling nicely underneath, but the Button drawn offscreen (I assume) below the ScrollView. The only way I can get the Button to be visible is to hard-code the height of the ScrollView, which of course only works on one screen-size. I've tried all combinations of gravity and layout_weight I can think of to no avail. Am I using the right combination of Views? Anybody managed to get this working?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have tried to write an Android application with an activity that should be launched from a different application. It is not a content provider, just an app with a gui that should not be listed among the installed applications. I have tried the code examples here and it seems to be quite easy to launch existing providers and so on, but I fail to figure out how to just write a "hidden" app and launch it from a different one.
The basic use case is:
App A is a normal apk launchable from the application list.
App B is a different apk with known package and activity names, but is is not visible or launchable from the application list.
App A launches app B using the package and class names (or perhaps a URI constructed from these?).
I fail in the third step. Is it possible to do this?

Currently working on a simple app to allow users to find various things around them. When the activity that shows the Google map is active I can see the GPS icon on the status bar, which is normal. But I need to be able to stop the GPS hardware when my user navigates away from the activity, and switch the GPS back on when the activity is shown.
Is there a simple way to stop GPS when a user navigate away from an activity? I have tried the LocationManager's removeUpdates() but this doesn't actually stop the GPS (the icon is still flashing on the status bar and draining the battery).
What I'm looking for is a simple way to programatically stop the GPS hardware.
