I want to share the same view.mTag value of a viewgroup to all the childs under that viewgroup.
Like all childs should call the getTag() of viewgroup to get the tag .How can i do that ?

Can someone help me with my Syntax/Methodology? I would like to set up a bunch of different views in a viewgroup. My code fails at the addView method.
Unfortunately, I can't find jack for examples (which is how I learn) using the ViewGroup class online.code...
I am trying to set up a ViewFlipper that changes a SlidingDrawers content each time a button is pressed. So far every view I set up worked fine, but now I am trying to create a ListView (including single_choice_mode) within a child view of the ViewFlipper, but my attempt only let to a NullPointerException. As I only discovered ViewFlipper today, I am not yet familiar with it and may not have understood it completely. if someone could give me a hand and help me find out what I have done wrong, that would be great. Here is what I have done:
The code for the onClick event of the ImageButtons:
public void onClick(View v){
if (v == btnExposure){
mFlipper.setDisplayedChild(0); }
else if (v == btnProperties){
mFlipper.setDisplayedChild(1);}
else if (v == btnSpecialEffects){
mFlipper.setDisplayedChild(2);.............
I have a simple ListView and on that ListView I have placed a number of custom defined Views. The CustomView has ImageView and two TextViews.
The CustomView also has a "stateful drawable" as background, so that the background image (a 9-patch) changes if you press the Row in the ListView. When pressing the Row, the background image changes to a Red-ish thing.
The problem is that when the background changes from the default greyish, all the Views in the CustomView (ImageView and TextViews) still have their greyish background and thus creates very ugly greay boxes on top of the now redish background.
What is the best way to solve that problem? I hoped that such things were handled automatically (as it is done in for example .NET), but I was wrong it seems.
I have a WebView inside the ScrollView. The content of WebView dyanamically changes when it displays different html page. I have the following issue: For example I have A.html, and B.html. The content of B.html is larger than A.html, so the page is longer. When WebView load B.html, the ScrollView stretches its size to enable itself scroll for B.html, then if I go back to A.html, ScrollView doesn't resize itself. (The scroll area is exceed the content of A.html) What I want to have, is dynamic change the scroll area of scroll view to fit the webview's content.

Please advice how to set fixed heigh (in dip) for the child view of ListView component? I am using relative layout as root layout for the child view when I set backgoround image to relative layout it becomes very height (maybe because backgoround picture is large) and I want to set precisely the height in dp.

I am trying to add a view to a viewgroup but I am getting the following error when I run the application
Error: E/AndroidRuntime( 570): java.lang.IllegalStateException: The specified child already has a parent. You must call removeView() on the child's parent first. Code: public class ExampleApp extends ViewGroup{

I have the following structure defined in an xml layout file.
<RelativeLayout android:id="@+id/mainLayout"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<FrameLayout android:id="@+id/frame" android:layout_centerInParent="true" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" ></FrameLayout>
<Button android:id="@+id/button" android:layout_below="@id/frame" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</RelativeLayout>
The FrameLayout is positioned correctly in the center of its parent. But the Button isn't getting positioned under it. Instead it's displaying in the top left corner. Am I doing something incorrectly or is this a bug with RelativeLayout?
I want to have a ViewGroup with another View in it. The user should be able to move the other View around the ViewGroup, and fling it away. However, the inner View shouldnt only move, it should also scale and so on (so we dont restrain ourselves to just movements). I don't really know the best way to implement it.
First I though about using a ViewGroup pretty much as it is (i.e. take advantage of the already-written methods). Then I could do the flinging with an Animation. However, when I move the View around with my finger, wouldnt I have to do a requestLayout, since the View changes size when I move it? Or could I just set a transform?
The other alternative would be to override the draw-method and do most of the work myself. For instance, when the user moves his/her finger, I could get a cache of the View and just paint it on the Canvas (with some transform). However, how would I do the flinging then, without an Animation? I could use a Scroller/VelocityTracker, but What would "drive" the repaints? Which is the best way to do this? Also, I won't have just one View, but a couple of them, so I'd like the solution to be effective.

Since the root element is a LinearLayout, which extends ViewGroup, why does main.xml get turned into a View instead of a ViewGroup? For example, in my main Activity class, I try to get the number of subviews that the LinearLayout contains like this:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
ViewGroup vg = (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.layout.main);
Log.v("myTag", "num children: " + vg.getChildCount());
but it crashes when i call vg.getChildCount(). What is the right way of doing it?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using Android SDK 1.5. I am developing an activity with multiple content views. It will call setContentView() with different viewgroup instance for different functionality. It contains a text input dialog popped up by an option menu item. I didn't specify anything for IME in mainfest.xml & EditText attributes. I found at first, the soft keyboard for the text input dialog will overlap on the activity content view. But after several content view switch (by calling setContentView() with different ViewGroup instance), the soft keyboard will resize the activity content view. Why this inconsistent behavior happens?

I have created a child class from the Gallery view, named MyGallery. I did this because I wanted to get rid of the onFling event in the gallery view. Having that achieved, it lead me to a different problem. Scrolling the Gallery with the Dpad doesn't work now. When I tried using the original Gallery class, the dpad works fine. But when I extend the Gallery and use my custom gallery class, the dpad stops working. Am I missing something?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a simple LinearLayout. When I add the android:background to the LinearLayout, the TextView is no longer visible. What am I not understanding?
<LinearLayout

android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center_vertical"

</TextView>
</LinearLayout>
The documentation at http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/widget/AbsoluteLayout.html says:
onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b) //Called from layout when this view should assign a size and position to each of its children. So I overrode it like this:
@Override
protected void onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b) {
Log.d("test", "In MainLayout.onLayout");
int childCount = getChildCount();
for (int childIndex = 0; childIndex < childCount; childIndex++) {
getChildAt(childIndex).setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(100, 100, 100, 100));
}
super.onLayout(changed, l, t, r, b);
}
I am declaring the child elements (buttons) in the XML for the layout. This correctly sets the position of the buttons but not the size. The size is being taken from what is defined in the XML (it's a required attribute).
I want to auto select an image in gallery and focus the selected image. I know the position (index) of the image in gallery. I am trying to use in res/layout/main.xml
<Gallery
android:id="@+id/galleryView"
android:layout_below="@id/imageViewMap"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="100sp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
in AlbumView.java
gallery = (Gallery) mView.findViewById(R.id.galleryView);
ImageView view = gallery.getItemAtPosition(position);
Unfortunately the above code is returning null. Can you please help in this matter.
I am using a Gallery view where the view corresponding to each item is non-trivial and consists of text as well as multiple buttons. When I click to drag the gallery view (somewhere not on one of the buttons) the button's drawable state changes to pressed and appears as if all of the buttons are currently being pressed. Additionally, the same behavior happens for the selected state (e.g. all of the text of the child TextViews changes color). I am trying to prevent this behavior and have found the android:duplicateParentState xml attribute as well as the setDuplicateParentStateEnabled property. This seems like it should accomplish what I am trying to do, but it seems to have no effect.

XML is basically (pseudo-code)

I'm currently working on an app that has a number of views within a Gridview (Imageviews, Textviews and Linearlayout). Upon clicking the mouse button I would like to replace the existing views with new views. Where I currently have an imageview for example could be replaced with a TextView.
I have tried various calls which suggest they delete these objects and the code does compile but then when I run it it crashes.
