I have an issue with a virtual keyboard.
This Soft Keyboard Covers Data Fields - and can't See what's going on.
I want to use this soft keypad and at the same time it should not become a problem to use data fields.
So how can I manage the data fields in such cases?

I want to replace the default virtual/soft keyboard with a numeric keypad (with big keys) to simplify number entry. Anyone has any such experiences or knows any guide/tutorial about this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedCan you guys share how can we mask password input in fullscreen virtual keypad. EditText setPinEditText= new EditText(context); setPinEditText.setImeOptions(EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_UNSPECIFIED);)
I tried using setPinEditText.setTransformationMethod(new PasswordTransformationMethod());
Masking the password input in portrait vkp mode works fine with this change but when I rotate to landscape mode, in fullscreen virtual keyboard mode it doenst worked.
Why am i not able to show the virtual keyboard in my activity. Here is my code: package som.android.keypad;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.inputmethod.InputMethodManager;
import android.widget.EditText;
I am using the Android onTouchEvent to register touch and the associated movement. I then want to iterate a sprite along that path.
I need to store the path traced by the finger for use later on.
The problem is that after the finger is lifted off the screen the ArrayList (pArray) is completely populated with the X & Y position of the ACTION_UP coordinates.
From the Log i can see that it is adding the current X & Y position to the Arraylist while the finger is moving which is great but then the Arraylist gets overwritten by the data in Arraylist.size() - 1...

I have some questions about how the ContentProvider works behind the scenes.
1. The ContentProvider class is registered in the kernel when the application is installed and then what? Or how do the other applications exactly manage to access the application data?
2. When is actually onCreate called? The documentation is pretty vague...
3. What happens if two applications register the same provider class? (I have more applications that must communicate between eachother. The content provider must be registered, of course, along with the first application installed on the system. The problem here is that I don't know which one will be, so I want to deliver the ContentProvider with all the applications)
When typing in an AutoCompleteTextView, when the list shrinks because the number of matches goes down, the DropDown leaves several "ghost" elements on the screen. This only seems to happen when an IME is visible, and visually, it appears to be limited to the area that shows the autocomplete suggestions for the input method, so quite possibly it's happening in what is part of the IME's layout. This occurs in 2.0.1, 2.1 and 2.2 emulators, and most likely on devices as well (confirmed at least on Milestone running 2.1- upgrade1). It _does not_ seem to happen in an 1.6 emulator.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've started a little game, and so far I'm moving a little guy with onKeyDown() and the DPAD from Android Emulator. Now what I want to do is to add 4 buttons on the screen (like in a GAMEBOY emulator for example) and these buttons should move my little guy. With a clickListener and onClick() (or touchListener and onTouch()), it's ok for one move but how to do if I want that my little guy continues moving when I stay clicked on the button ??? Buttons are enough or should I make a 4 arrows soft keyboard or anything else?

View 9 Replies View RelatedIs there an app to get a landscape virtual keyboard that is shorter? The text box above the kb is strangely huge and some if not all of that space should just show the page you are entering the text into.
If it's ebuddy, it should show one line of text and let you see the last message sent to you. If it's on a web page, then omit the text box entirely, we can read what we are typing into the boxes on the page last I checked. Anyone know of anything? It's a major annoyance for me.

View 8 Replies View RelatedIn my application I change layouts very frequently with most of the user interactions. Each time when a new layout is drawn, the applications memory size is increasing. I can see this in DDMS. This is absolutely fine. I have analyzed my application with memory analyze tool and it shows that there around 42 Table layouts at some point of time and this number increase as user does more interactions with the app. Now my question is why doesn't the GC collect the stale layout objects. Does GC collect on UI widgets also??? I feel it does but can any one tell me what may be the reason for GC not collecting my UI elements.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI need to add some parts of my UI programmatically. I'm doing this because I need to set the ids of some elements up in such a way that they can be easily access in a for loop. So far I have this xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/attr_row" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"> <EditText android:id="@+id/attr_name"
android:hint="Attribute" android:layout_width="0dip" android:layout_weight="2"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:inputType="textPersonName" />
<EditText android:id="@+id/attr_val" android:hint="Value"
android:layout_width="0dip" android:layout_weight="3"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:inputType="textPersonName" />
<ImageButton android:id="@+id/drop_attr" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="@drawable/btn_delete_states"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" /> </LinearLayout>
At the moment, I inflate this xml five times like so:
for (int i = 0; i<5; i++) { LinearLayout attrList = (LinearLayout) findViewById (R.id.attr_list);
LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater();
View row = inflater.inflate(R.layout.attr_row, null);
LinearLayout extraAttr = (LinearLayout) row.findViewById (R.id.attr_row);
ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT);
attrList.addView(extraAttr, i, params); }
The link below shows two pictures - the layout hierarchy and the result in the emulator. http://picasaweb.google.com/bengoldcross/Android?authkey=Gv1sRgCJ785I...
As can be seen, the xml is inflated five times successfully but only one is actually displayed. Inspecting the hierarchy viewer a bit more explains why. The layout being displayed is at location x=0 y=111 all the others are being rendered at x=320 y=111. It would appear they are being displayed a) off screen and b) on top of each other. So, why are they and how do I stop it from happening?
Here's a quote from Android's Dev Guide: A central feature of Android is that one application can make use of elements of other applications (provided those applications permit it). For example, if your application needs to display a scrolling list of images and another application has developed a suitable scroller and made it available to others, you can call upon that scroller to do the work, rather than develop your own. Isn't it a bad practice to make an app dependent on other apps?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI was wandering if there was a easy way to do the following without android layout
place an image central top

it doesn't sound that difficult no ?
well I can't figure out a way to place the elements as I want using stupid xml layout.
I have a database filled with records in the following format: . What I want my application to do is select records from an external database, and display those records on the phone screen using a SurfaceView.
Currently, I have an Activity, and a Service responsible for the record-gathering portion of the application. The Activity passes an intent to the Service, and the Service responds by returning the records that need to be displayed. The records are stored in my program as instances of the Data class, and merely have the screen-coordinates of where the element should be drawn in the View (I am just drawing a circle for every record in the DB).
For the sake of brevity, I won't include the service but I will include a skeleton of the Activity class and the Data that I wish to display.
CODE:.................
The problem that I am having pertains to the SurfaceView. I realize that many people are going to suggest that I use just a regular View, but my application involves a lot of elements, so a SurfaceView would be much more suitable for my needs. Below is a skeleton of my SurfaceView class that contains a nested class to manage the threads.
CODE:............
The problem that I'm having is that once I make the initial call to the Panel class, I'm going to be getting new records from the service, and consequently, my Info Map data-structure is going to get updated. However, my Panel class just gets stuck in a loop and never receives any new Data objects. All examples of SurfaceViews I've found have involved updating them methods within the SurfaceView class itself (e.g. touching the screen and creating a new image, etc.) Sadly, I'm stumped on this particular problem. Is there a better approach for designing my Activity/SurfaceView interaction? Is an additional View required?
