View 2 RepliesI create a ListView in my activity and set its ChoiceMode to CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE, I also set its layout to simple_list_item_single_choice. But when i click on it onItemSelected() is never called and getCheckedItemPosition() returns -1. Why? the sample List10.java of ApiDemos uses ListActivity works well which just set the same as I done in my app. Any ideas?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to create a custom list view in my application. I want it to lay over the top of the application screen, with portions of the screen not filled by the listview showing the underlying application. I've been reading about ListActivity, how it can be started to handle item selected callbacks. I've also read about people simply inserting onClick handlers into the listview as it is drawn. I'm trying to decide the best way to proceed. Is it "dirty" to attach onClick handlers to the rows of a listview? It doesn't seem like the best approach, for instance, it only handles Touch Mode, not the DPAD clicks. This approach doesn't seem like what the architects had in mind. On the other hand, I don't see a good way that I can start a list activity and still have access to all the application variables I need. Do I pass the application in the context and refer back to it from even handlers after casting the context back to it's original class?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have three ListView widgets in the same LinearLayout. Something like this (I'm omitting XML elements that are not relevant in this example):
CODE:..............
This forces the list to have a height of 360 dip. Of course, that will be its height even if there are few list items. So, my question is how can make the lists have an automatic height? What I want is that the ListView height takes the exact size of the sum of all its list items.
I am starting with ListActivity.
I saw apidemos and saw that it is based on ListActivity. My doubt is, in my first screen I need a few labels and texts under that a list. How to approach this ? I cant do a setContentlayut(R.id.main) if my activity extends ListActivity, no ?
more over I found the tutorial posted in the forums for ListActivity a bit outdated. Where is 1.5 / 1.6 based tutorials ? because I am new, it is taking too much time to correct 1.1 codes.
lastly, if i have a todo type appfor adding deleting and deleting, should i use 3 different layouts or activities ?
I'm new to Android, and I really need to do it this way (I've considered doing it in another Activity), but can anyone show me a simple code (just the onCreate method) that can do Listview without ListActivity?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have some problems when creating a ListActivity.
I have a listview and some other widgets and my listview is filled with a custom adapter.
You can see the images of this activity here:

Now the problem is. I have a scrollview and all the other views and widgets are placed inside of it. As you can see on the image, I don't see all of my 6 comments (that is the list). When i don't place the scrollview the height of the list is perfect (i have set android:layout_height to wrap_content (to my listview and parent LinearLayout). This is perfect but I have other widgets under the list and when the list reaches the bottom of the screen I can't to scroll to view my other widgets..
How can I fix this? I can set the height of the linearlayout manually but the problem is that the height doesnt has to be the same all the time (it loads the commens from my web service).. It has to fit the height of all the comments (like wrap_content normally does..)
Here is a part of the code with the layout and listview..

I have an application with various tabs (on a tabhost), each tab is an activity that extends activity, and haves some textfields and things on it
now i need that my tabs have inside a listview, but in the example from android developer guide says that you have to extend ListActivity and not Activity
basically i need to merge these two tutorials:
http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-listview.html
http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html
i want to know how can i use a listview without extending listactivity on my class
someone knows? code...
In Android, what functionality do ListActivity and ListView provide beyond a regular Activity and View?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI can't seem to get a customized divider, using a Drawable I've defined, to work when using a ListActivity and not creating a custom ListView. It almost seems like when the VM creates its own ListView for me, with the ListActivity, it uses a theme with the default divider provided; and if I try to provide one, no dividers appear in the ListView at all.
I know that I can create a custom ListView using XML and define android:divider on that ListView, and this does recognize my custom divider Drawable. But I would prefer to just let the ListActivity create its own ListView, if I can figure out how to get my own divider working on it.
Here's the code I'm using now:

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy friend was talking to me about an application my friend has, or that it comes with the phone, but I can't seem to figure out a way to do it.
So the application basically sends the caller a customized SMS if you do not pick up the phone. Say you call me, and I didn't answer, the phone automatically sends the caller a text that you set up beforehand that could say 'I'm sleeping, I'll call you when I'm awake' or something along those lines.
Anyone know what it is or how to configure it if it comes with the phone?
