I would like to have expandable text categories which reveal children that are checkable entries. I've used the "simple_list_item_multiple_choice" layout for the childLayout argument of SimpleExpandableListAdapter.

I'm using an ExpandableListActivity and notice that whenever I select a group item (to expand or collapse it), it highlights briefly and then quickly un-highlights.
For my application, I want the group items to remain highlighted. I've tried requestFocus() and several other things but nothing is working.
Anyone know how to keep a selected group item (after expand or collapse) highlighted and focused?
Is there anyway to remove the default drop down icon on ExpandableList?

i'm in final stage of writing my custom widget (quite similar to Home's sliding panel). it works quite well except one thing: i have some problems with positioning it in FrameLayout (see 3 rightPanel* Panels in main.xml in attached eclipse project).basically i don't like the idea i'm using there: setting layout_marginTop in panelHandle children.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to get all the children views of a layout, from the Java code so that I can loop through them and set an attribute? Specifically, I'd like to set the "layout_width" based on the screen size. Since this "layout_width" would be the same for all the views, I'd prefer to loop through instead of calling each individual View separately by their id. The following is my main.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/myRow1" android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_weight="1"> <TextView android:text="1" android:layout_width="wrap_content"

<TextView android:text="2" android:layout_width="wrap_content"

I'm making a image gallery with infinite vertical and horizontal scrolling. I put images inside a ListView to make a column, and put the ListViews inside a TableRow. However, it seems that child views of TableRow is not selectable and as a result I can't select the images in my ListView (easily). Is there a way to pass the events down to child views of TableRow so they can be selectable?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a very simple application (part of my learning program), vertically oriented, with an EditText at the top that receives a URL, and two buttons side by side just below that say "Get Image" or "Get Text" depending on the URL typed in (.html vs. .png, for example). The resulting elements may be later scavanged for use in a real app. I know that ScrollView can have only one child. Conceptually, I want the rest of the screen to be a vertically oriented content region for displaying either the text (TextView) of the URL and "Get Text" was clicked or the image (ImageView) in the case where it was an image and "Get Image" was clicked. I tried to do this (pseudocode) in main.xml:
<LinearLayout> <EditText /> --where to type the URL
<Button /> --click to treat URL as text
<Button /> --click to treat URL as image
<FrameLayout> --(used to be ScrollView) <LinearLayout>
<TextView /> --content region occupied by either text
<ImageView /> --or an image (but not both)
</LinearLayout> </FrameLayout> </LinearLayout>
In order not to violate the single-child requirement. However, this doesn't work and for now I'm not finding any sample out there that clues me in to how best to accomplish this. The last complaint I got while debugging was:
Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.widget.TextView

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm creating a custom widget that extends AdapterView. Imagine something like a ListView except that the list items can overlap each other with some transparency. Because of the overlap, I'm trying to control the layout and drawing order of the children.
My issue is that the control renders it's children, but ONLY one level deep. Each child is inflated from an XML resource that contains a FrameLayout and an ImageView. The FrameLayout draws, but the ImageView is never visible. I assume I need to call some method to tell the FrameLayout to layout or draw it's children, but I'm not sure what, why, or where. Does anyone know what I'm missing?
Here is the relevant code for my custom widget: Code...
I have a linear layout that I have overridden because I want to > dynamically add other views to it. I am trying to add some textviews > to it and I call addViewToLayout in the onLayout method. Can't you just add your views to the layout using addView()? I have one custom LinearLayout and this is what I do and it works fine. No need to override onLayout() or onDraw(). Maybe try that
View 10 Replies View RelatedI have a custom listview row that contains a number of textView components. Instead of the "standard" single text item, I have created a item where each listview row contains several bits of information. For this example, I have a record id, a name, and a description for each row in the listview. I have my listview populated via
this.mDbHelper = new RecordDBAdapter(this); this.mDbHelper.open();
Cursor c = this.mDbHelper.fetchAllRecords(); startManagingCursor(c);
String[] from = new String[] {RecordDBAdapter.ROW_ID, RecordDBAdapter.NAME,
RecordDBAdapter.DESCRIPTION};
int[] to = new int[] {R.id.recordId, R.id.lblName, R.id.lblDescription};
// Now create an array adapter and set it to display using our row
SimpleCursorAdapter records = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.record_row, c, from, to); this.list.setAdapter(dives);
Now what I want is to be able to access the recordId value within each clicked item. I've tried to follow the Android tutorials to no avail. They do something like
Object o = adapter.getItemAtPosition(position);
but that still doesn't help either. What I really want is to get the value of the recordId within each selected listItem. Does anyone know how this would be accomplished? Here is my onItemClick event:
protected OnItemClickListener onListItemClick = new OnItemClickListener() {
@Override public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapter, View view, int position, long rowId) {
// My goal is either to grab the value of the
// recordId value from the textView, or from the adapter.
//Object o = adapter.getItemAtPosition(position);
//Tried this, no joy
Intent intent = new Intent(NeatActivity.this, SomeOtherActivity.class);
// intent.putExtra("selectedRecordId",val); //val here is a numerical record row id being passed to another activity.
startActivity(intent); } };
I was wondering if its possible to block the onclick events on a layout and all the children inside the layout.
for example, I have a LinearLayout and inside that I have buttons and an editText. At a certain point I don't want the user to click on the buttons or edit the text. Is there a way to block that? Do I have to do it for each view? or I can do it for a Layout? What is the best way to do this?
I have a ragged hierarchy of parents and children. In that there are some parents that have 5 children...and some parents have 0 children.
The expandableListView displays the "Expand/Collpase" icon even if there are no children.
Question-Is there a way to hide the icon for only those Parents(rows) that have no children? I still want to show the row of the Parents with no children. And allow a user to click on them. But the "Expand/Collapse" icon is confusing.
I'm trying to access the textviews (for starters, eventually replace with imageviews etc) which are stored in the tablerows in the code below.
The line beginning 'log.d' was the part I was working on, trying to get it to print out the contents of the 2nd text view in the first row, but I can only get as far as selecting the tablerow using "getChildAt(i)".
Trying "getChildAt(0).getChildAt(1)" doesn't select the textview as I would have expected it to; says that it's a View and as such, doesn't have this method - though unless I'm mistaken, aren't tablerows ViewGroups, which do have this method? code...
I have a LinearLayout with 2 text View as its children. How can I make the children of LinearLayout to change foreground color (in this case, the text color of the text view) when the linearlayout has focus?
<LinearLayout> <TextView android:id="@+id/name" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:textAppearance="?
android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" android:textColor="?android:attr/textColorInverse" />
<TextView android:id="@+id/value" android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:textAppearance="?
android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" android:textColor="?android:attr/textColorInverse" />
</LinearLayout>
I am playing around with this example.

I cannot figure out how to attach a listener to the children elements so that I can trigger some action when the user taps on the phone number.
Basically, I have a custom ListView in which each item looks like:
CODE:..........
The ListView in each item is GONE by default and is set to VISIBLE when the button is clicked. Everything seems to work fine with the exception that when the ListView is long enough to scroll, it is just kind of truncated. http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/3269/listviewproblem.png
Is this a problem with the maximum height of an individual list item? Is there a way to force the list item to expand and force the child listview to expand to show all children?
As a work around to the issue where a list item isn't focusable if it has a focusable child item (a comment by Romain Guy was that this was intended behavior, for accessibility reasons) I simply filled the listItem with two children, each of which is focusable - There's nowhere to directly touch on the listItem anymore, just it's children.
For the most part this is a useable workaround, effectively invisible to the user, except for one thing- Although you can scroll by swiping without issue, touching to *stop* the scroll no longer works- I imagine because the child item is capturing the touch event and not passing it to the parent listitem, at least while the scroll is in effect.
Is there a known workaround for this? Perhaps someway to "pass the baton" of the touch event back up to the parent listItem, or a way to change my design?
BTW- I know there's some built-in functonality for single/multiple choice listviews (checkbox listviews) - That doesn't actually help in my case. The app is a contact list, and the row children are a relativelayout (populated with contact info) and a clickable phone icon (a one-touch dial for the contact), which needs to be visible or invisible depending on whether the stored contact has a phone number.
I want to display list of items in my application and user will select checkbox which is present in front of each item. List is displayed well. It also shows checkbox infront of list item but when I click on checkBox it is not getting selected. My code is like this

I have simple list to be filled in from the database along with a checkbox. I need a handle to all the checkboxes selected. Whn the CLEAR button is pressed at that point I need the row ids of all the selected check boxes to delete them. To do this :
My list.xml file looks like this :
CODE:......
and my data_entry.xml looks like this:
CODE:............
Now: I have list.java file where I am populating the list as follows:
CODE:.....................
Now where do i give the handle to the heckbox cause anywhere else it would give me a null exception as the data_entry contains the checkboxes. Plus I need a listener to handle the checkbox status?
