Android :: Using The Merge Tag In Layouts To Add External Layout Resource?
Oct 18, 2010
I have a layout I want to reuse, it looks like:
CODE:..........
It is in a file called "reuseme.xml". Now I have an activity layout, which like the following, how can I incorporate the layout above into it?:
CODE:..........
It seems that's possible, but I'm not sure how to use the merge tag to accomplish it?

I'm creating a game where there's a screen that, for the most part, is shared by four different activites - but a key portion of the screen will be completely different, depending upon which activity is active. Basically, on the left will be an image of the player and along the bottom there will be a row of buttons (let's say for Armour, Weapons, Magic, Skills). This leaves the top-right portion, which will need to dynamically change to represent the button pressed. (So, one moment the top-right portion is the armour selection activity, and the next it's the weapon selection activity, and so on.)
Is this possible? Can I have a layout within a layout and dynamically point the nested layout at a (nested) layout.xml of my choosing? Or, am I looking at just duplicating most of the layout four times (for the four different activities?) Or, am I going to be looking at linking the four activities to a (the top-right) view component, and then having to dynamically construct all of *that* view's child views based on the currently active activity? Well, that's about as much sense as I can make this question make.

I am creating a few layouts with the root element being merge. inside the merge element i have a ScrollView containing a TextView. I am getting 2 errors: there is no resource to match the layout_below and layout above names i have put in.I have another layout xml file including very similar components, some of which also reference @id/headingLayout and @id/tabsLayout. Both of these XML layout files do not contain the component with name headingLayout or tabsLayout.Why is it that one layout file has no errors about these references and the other layout file does? What the crap am i doing wrong, the app will build and run like i expect, until i add this merge to another layout?I have even tried copying the xml from the working layout file, to find that it gives the same errors, something must be wrong with my new layout file. I have tried cleaning, rebuilding, opening/closing eclipse..

I would like to use an <include /> in my XML file to add a layout below a MapView(or any other greedy layout). I have been trying for a few hours now, and no luck so far. I was hoping someone could give me a hand.
Here is what my XML looks like now:
CODE:...................
Optimally, the include could be any sort of other layout. The goal here is to have the Google map on the top, and then have the included layout below it. If I include the content in the layout, such as replacing the <include /> tag with a <TextView /> then that works correctly, so I am thinking I am mis-using the include. A trip to hierarchy viewer shows that the included layout has no height. I have tried putting the include first, and using a RelativeLayout to position the map above the included layout, but I could not get that to work correctly (the included layout took the entire screen space, even though I explicitly said layout_height='wrap_content'

Is there a way to include one resource in another (for example a header design in multiple activities' layouts). I know I can add it at run time, can it be done in the XML?

I'm interested in instantiating a LinearLayout object from an xml file that has a LinearLayout file configuration. I want to do this within a method of my Activity. I tried findViewById() but that returned null. I've made sure that the LinearLayout id is the one I'm passing. Note that this layout isn't part of my screen, it's stand-alone, so I want to build a LinearLayout object from the xml.

This seems like a simple problem to me, but I can't figure it out. I have a fullscreen layout that displays differently if the screen is taller (854 instead of 800 pixels). I've tried putting the xml into layout-notlong-hdpiand layout-long-dpi respectively, but both my WVGA and FWVGA emulators go for the "long" version (as described in the doc).
Is there any way to distinguish between the two besides using the deprecated -800x480/-854x480 qualifiers?

I have created a custom list item layout just like in this article http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/layout-tricks-efficie....
Each list item has icon, title and summary.
I would like to declare an xml resource that would provide data for that list. Just like you use <string-array> to populate the list using ArrayAdapter<String>.
The simple ArrayAdapter<String> can be populated from:
CODE:..........
I need each <item> to have icon, title and summary. Somewhat similar to:
CODE:..........
I would use <menu> but menu doesn't have summary if I'm not mistaken.

Looking in the android sdk folders, I've found a file called values/config.xml. This seems to be somewhere that you can define values for later use in layouts and animations.
Given the config.xml:
<resources>
<string name="config_somePadding">50dip</string>
</resources>
How would I reference this to use as the layout_height in a layout xml file?
@string/config_somePadding is actually the only one I've found that doesn't throw an error in Eclipse (even though there isn't a config_somePadding in values/strings.xml), but it appears to just put an empty string.
In the sdk, they use an integer for animation duration. They reference it like this: android:duration="@android:integer/config_longAnimTime". Is there a way to use values that aren't integers in the layout_height attribute?

I need to display a list of categories from a ListActivity. My data source is a ArrayList of type Category which is implementing the android Parcelable interface. stucture is given at the bottom. it has an id and a title
I need title to be displayed as list text and on clicking the list item, i need to get the id for further processing
It is possible to create a new array of 'title's by iterating the category ArrayList and use
CODE:..........
But bu using this method i will get only the title of the category upon click and not the id.
Is it possible to directly use the ArrayList of objects as data source?
CODE:..................

I have an XML resource file:
<resources> <section>
<category value="1" resourceId="@xml/categoryData1" />
<category value="2" resourceId="@xml/categoryData2" />
<category value="3" resourceId="@xml/categoryData3" />
</section> </resources>
Using XmlPullParser, on the START_TAG, I can use:
int value = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "value", 0);
to get values 1, 2, 3...however:
int resourceId = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "resourceId", 0);
doesn't work...it just yields the default value 0, or whatever I change the default value (3rd parameter) to be. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or if this is possible?

in my application, i want merge serveral images dynamically accroding to the user's selection, and the merged image will be scrolled and zoomed.i extends View to OverlayImageView, which has the properties background Bitmap, layers Bitmap and Matrix. in the onDraw event, i draw the background Bitmap and layers bitmap sequently by the method canvas.canvas.drawBitmap(image, imgMatrix, null).however, if all the bitmaps are stored in memery, it leads to the Out Of Memory problem. so, i have to read the image in the onDraw event by the method BitmapFactory.decodeResource, but it's slow to response user's operation, for example, the scroll and zoom the image will leads to the onDraw event. so, does anyone have some good ideas?

If I first set the content view to my xml layout using setContentView(R.layout.main); and then add another content view using addContentView(layout, params), the content views overlap each other. I want the second content view to position itself directly under the first one. Is it possible or do I need to combine the xml and the programatically created layouts in some way? Both of the layouts are linear.

I have a frame of 22 bytes. The frame is the input stream from an accelerometer via bluetooth. The acceleromter readings are a 16 bit number split over two bytes.
When i try to merge the bytes with buffer[1] + buffer[2], rather than adding the bytes, it just puts the results side by side. so 1+2 = 12.
How to combine these two bytes to obtain the original number. (btw the bytes are sent little endian)

i have a layout folder with 2 layouts. layout1 and layout2 i have another folder layout-land that has layout1 in it. i would like to be able to get to all the layouts so i could create a set of layout like this: {layout1, layout2, layout1(from layout-land folder)}is there any way i can use the existing android mechanisim to do that? if not, what would be the impact of creating my own definition of the layout folder (for example to have under the layout folder layout1, layout2 and layout_land1 and have my code do getOrientation to diffrentiate whcih one should be presented).

I'd like to build an activity that is mixing layouts with 2D graphics. So for example, would like to introduce an edittext with an integer value and based on that value the size of a circle is dynamically adjusted and drawn. Any idea how to do this?
For plain graphics I am using this approach here - but how can it be expanded to cover Android layouts (buttons, editboxes, textviews, radiobuttons, etc.)?

I've met a problem with animation when tried to make a View to perform the animation which should cross 2 layouts, e.g. make a translate animation so a view could move down to the TableRow below. This trick works fine when i try to move a view within a single TableRow but not when i try to move it up or down. I've also discovered that if i create a single RelativeLayout and apply the same animation there, it works fine, but i can't arrange all the components i need on the screen. Could anybody please provide me any hints about it?
