Android : Tell Is Someone Has Pressed A SPINNER But Not Changed Visible Item In It?

Jun 6, 2010

I have a spinner, which mostly works. If a user selects one of the items in it, the 'onItemSelected' routine catches it just fine.

But if a user clicks the same spinner, but does not change from the already visible item that it's currently displaying, the 'onItemSelected' routine just ignores it, and the logs show:-

WARN/InputManagerService(577): Window already focused, ignoring focus gain of: com.android.internal.view.IInputMethodClient$Stub$Proxy@437948b0

I there anyway to capture someone doing this? The idea is that my spinner contains a list of names, and when a user selects one from the spinner, it gets added to a listview.

I could just add another button to get the name from the spinner, but, screen-space is already lacking and I'd rather not add anymore content.

Android :: Activity Of Killed Process Still Visible In List After Home Pressed

Sep 23, 2010

like many others, I want to kill my Android application on "exit" button. Really kill, not just move to background and stop all active code. (I know very well that Android does not like it.) I found Process.killProcess(Process.myPid()); and System.exit(0) which both work fine (I have no problem with activity stack, the "exit" button is in my base Activity.). But there is a problem. When I kill my process and I am back in the shell, I press [Home] button. It shows list of applications that are on the background including my application which has been killed.

Is there a way how to do both: 1) kill the process and 2) remove it from the Android application list that is shown after user presses [Home] button? Thanks for all replays (with the exception of that stupid "you should not exit applications explicitly on Android"

Android :: Get Data Index Of Visible Item

Jan 4, 2010

I have an Android ListView created with a SimpleAdapter that has more items in it than fit in the screen. After the list has been scrolled, I need to get the position in the data model of the first visible item in the list.Basically I want a function like: listView.getChildAt(0).getPositionInDataModel().Adapter has a few functions in it, like getItemId(position) that looked useful; however, the SimpleAdapter implementation just returns the passed in position, not a row id like I'd hoped.A brute force solution would be to get the View at index 0, and compare it to the view for each item in the adapter.However, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to get the view for a particular position from the adapter.

Android : Disable Spinner Item?

Dec 10, 2009

How do I disable (gray out, make unselectable) an item in a Spinner? I tried calling View.disable() on the associated child of the Spinner, but it remains black text (not gray) and selectable.

There must be some way of showing but leaving unselectable certain items in a spinner, right? This is a standard "menu" behavior that goes back decades. Android permits it, right? I want the user to see that certain options are possible under certain circumstances even if they are impossible at the immediate moment...exactly the way items in the main Android menu-button invoked menu can be visible but unselectable.

Android : How To Disable An Item In A Spinner

Aug 26, 2010

Is it possible to display particular entries in a Spinner list as disabled?
i.e. I want to always display a spinner with 4 entries (North, South, East and West, say), but I want to be able to disable any one of these so that is appears greyed out and not selectable.

Is this possible, or will I have to recreate the list each time, leaving out the invalid entries?

Android : Need Item Selected From Spinner

Mar 11, 2010

I am a newbie coder and new to the SDK. I was just playing around with an app that i made. I wanted to know as to how to retrieve the item id of the selected item from the spinner when the spinner is re- populated.

For example, I created 2 spinners, if you selected item 0 from spinner1 then spinner2 will have a bunch of items and if you selected item 1 from spinner1 then spinner2 will have a different set of items. Now, my question is that when i select item 1 from spinner 1 then the items in spinner2 dont have different ids. So how do i differentiate from the two sets of data?

To illustrate,

User selected item 0 in spinner1 -> spinner2 gets data from array1 -> item 0 in spinner2 has id '0' and item text is "apple"

User selected item 1 in spinner1 -> spinner2 gets data from array2 -> item 0 in spinner2 has id '0' and item text is "oranges"

I know this sounds confusing but i hope the right people understood it..

Android : Setup Selected Item Of Spinner By Value - Not By Position?

I was having in mind something like this, but the Adapter has no indexOf method, so I am stuck .

Android : Handler Exception When Trying To Get Spinner Selected Item

Jun 30, 2009

I am trying to get the selected item of my spinner that is populated and I am already seeing the values. when I try to use (String) s.getSelectedItem(); to get the selected item, I am receiving a handler exception on Logcat.

The spinner throwing the error is a 2nd spinner resulting from the 1st spinner's selected item (that works perfectly). In other words, user selects from spinner one and upon selection, populates spinner 2 (until here everything is fine). When trying to get the value of the selected row in spinner2 , I am receiving the error.

here's the main parts of my code...

Android : Update Content After Selecting Item In Spinner

Feb 14, 2010

Its me again. I tried the last hours, how to change content of a spinner. ok, lets start from the beginning.

I have three spinners. They all have initial values. The first spinner is the main spinner and the other two spinners depend on the vale chosen in the first one. So i want to update the last two spinners after making a selection in spinner one. *edit: All spinners are on the same activity.

How can i achieve this? My problem is that i can only make changes in the spinners onitemselectadapter but thats a whole new class. I cannot reach the activity where my other spinners are.

Android : Way To Get Selected Item From Data Driven Spinner?

Nov 21, 2009

Newbie question. I'm using a SimleCursorAdapter to populate a spinner from an SQLite table, as shown in the Android dev docs. Code...

I've set up a listener, but I can't figure out how to get the selected item text, it pulls up the SQLiteCursor, not the actual text in the spinner.Code...

Google turns up the question on several message boards, but no answers, so it appears to be a common newbie question. It may be painfully obvious to some.

Android :: Stop Following Activity If Home Key Or Pressed Back Pressed

Jul 8, 2010

I have a problem and that is my SplashScreen I have. It is built as an intro and after 3 seconds it shows the main menu of the program. Anyway, if I press down Back or Home button during the time the SplashScreen shows, it closes, but the activity I have chosen to follow after the SplashScreen will still run after the three seconds.

My code: **UPDATED CODE**

Handler ur = new Handler();
myRun = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
mainIntent = new Intent(SplashScreen.this,MyApp.class);
SplashScreen.this.startActivity(mainIntent);
SplashScreen.this.finish();..........................

Spinner Style Can't Be Changed To Newer Style?

Jan 8, 2014

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.

Android :: Spinner Widgets Look Different On Different Devices - Can Define Own Spinner That Looks Same On All Handsets

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.

Android :: Call Spinner's Value - Use Other Values Based On A Spinner's Value

Jan 25, 2010

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'

Android :: Popup List Like Spinner Without Spinner

Jan 25, 2010

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?
