Android : Way To Customize Text On Spinner Control?
Nov 5, 2010
I've seen some answers to questions about how to specify a custom layout for a spinner's pop-up list, but what I want to do is to customize the text on the Spinner control itself, such the "setText..." methods that you can call for a Button (TextView subclass). Is there any way to do this? What I'm trying to do is to make my own Spinner design as I have for some of the other controls so it takes up less space and matches the general look of my app.

I want to customize the spinner behavior a little bit. I want to add a couple of buttons at the end of the drop down menu that is displayed when the user selects the control. Any idea how this could be done?

I've implemented a spinner with an OnItemSelectedListener event handler. When I initialize the spinner and when a user makes a selection the even handler gets called. What I need is to determine when a user makes a selection. Is there a way to determine in the OnItemSelectedListener whether the event was triggered because of data initialization, or because of a user selection? Am I going down the wrong path trying to do this with the OnItemSelectedListener? Is there a better way to to capture a user selection event on a spinner control?

I cannot find a corresponding control anywhere. The control I am interested in is iPhone's spinner.
It's much simpler to use than Android's TimePicker.
Since I see that native Clock app has it, does anyone know how is that control called and how can one use it in his app?

I would like to create a spinner where a user can edit the text for each drop-down entry. For example, I have a spinner for users, with pre-populated names: User 1, User 2, and User 3. I want the user to be able to edit these names to their liking.

I'm creating a spinner in my layout xml files and setting an string array to this spinner.
If I change the textstyle of the spinner the text is not affected by the changes.
I read in the googlegroups that a spinner has no text and therefore the textstyle can not be changed and I have to change the style of the textview that is shown in the spinner. But how can I do that. Preferably in my xml file.

Currently I'm using the default filter but I would like to be able to make it so I can ignore some letters at the beginning of the strings in the adapter. I've had a look at the public methods available on Multi Auto Complete Text View but can't find anything on how to pass my own filter to it. Any idea how to do this?

Recently switched from iPhone to Galaxy S3.
On the iPhone, there was an option to select different text notification sounds for different contacts. Bob has sound A, Carol has sound B, etc. I haven't found that option in the S3. Do I need to create Groups and then assign the Group a specific sound for text messages? With over 1200 contacts, I would like to choose one text sound for friends, another for clients, etc.

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.

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'

I'm trying to make a simple order system. So the user selects a burger type from a spinner, then the user can enter in the quantity and then there is some math taking place in the background which sets a text view at the bottom with the total price. I'm not sure what method I'm meant to use so that it is updated dynamically when the user changes the text view quantity.
If i just say that all burgers are 2.50, i need some sort of method saying, if/when data is entered into the edit text , take that data and then times it by 2.50 and set it in the total text view below. I'm just unsure on the method part of it so it's dynamic and will change when the edit text quantity is altered.
Code:
package placeorder.com;
import java.util.Random;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
[code]...

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?

I am trying to populate a spinner depending on another spinner's selected item, my code is the following:
CODE:.................
what is intriguing me is that the first spinner onitemselection works perfectly ( I can see the values in LogCat) then when I change selection of the 2nd spinner I am gettging an error on this line: String selected= (String) s2.getSelectedItem(); So the compiler gets insisde then onItemSelected function of the 2nd spinner but throws an Handler exceltion on s2.getSelectedItem()
why? it works perfectly for the 1st spinner.

i found the methods to control composing text in IMF are very limited. for example: i want to draw the compoing text and the cursor by myself. but i do not find how to implement this. i also want to set the cursor position into the composing text when i call setComposingText. seems it's impossible. And i found an issue that. setComposingText is also insert the composing text to a fixed position.
The following code does not work.

I need help in setting up value and display text in spinner. As per now I am populating my spinner by array adapter e.g. mySpinner.setAdapter(myAdapter);
And as far as I know after doing this the display text and the value of spinner at same position is same. The other attribute that I can get from spinner is the position on the item. Now in my case I want to make spinner like the drop down box, which we have in .NET. Which holds a text and value. Where as text is displayed and value is at back end. So if I change drop down box , I can either use its selected text or value. But its not happening in android spinner case.
For Example:
Text Value
Cat 10
Mountain 5
Stone 9
Fish 14
River 13
Loin 17
So from above array I am only displaying non-living objects text, and what I want is that when user select them I get there value i.e. like when Mountain selected I get 5. I hope this example made my question a bit more clear.

In Android, I want to use a Spinner that initially (when the user has not made a selection yet) displays the text "Select One". When the user clicks the spinner, the list of items is displayed and the user selects one of the options. After the user has made a selection, the selected item is displayed in the Spinner instead of "Select One".Code...

I'm trying to use Spinner as a button with selection pop-up. Basically I want an icon and when user clicks it - the popup list is displayed and user can make a selection. The Spinner happily accepts icon image as drawable background. Unfortunately when I select a value the text overlays the background. Is it possible to set selection text color as a transparent? Or maybe there's a better way?

I have a selection for some items using a spinner widget. At the moment the spinner will load a simple Textview and show the name of the item.It is possible to define an own view to show inside the spinner row? I would suspect it being similar to a custom List row.I simply want to show an individual icon left from the spinner text for each item in the list.
