Android :: Access Large Layout In Activity?
May 13, 2010
I am having layout which I want to render on to different sizes of mobile (like WVGA854). Resource structure is like
reslayoutmain.xml
reslayout-largemain.xml
By default it is taking layout main.xml file itself of layout. Its not pointing to layout-largemain.xml. its throwing exception:Activity can not start resource not found. So can any one guide me how can I acheive this and how to support mutiple screens with different layouts like large,small and default along with images specified in respective dip folders.

I have 5 layout folders. layout, layout-small, layout-normal, layout-medium and layout-large.
My app is heavily image based. As a result I have created the proper images. mdpi, hdpi and xhdpi. I don't think I need to worry about ldpi since screens are only getting bigger.
With this in mind and the need for me to now create a good landscape layout for all my pages, how do I go about this? Is it simple layout-land? No need for large/small/normal again right?
Considering that I've got all my hdpi and xdpi images do I even need layout-medium, layout-large and layout-normal? Because the images will be adjusting themselves based on screensize surely I can use one layout and have that work for all screens..?
It's all getting very confusing now that I'm trying to add a landscape view to my app. It doesn't do it very well at the moment so I will probably have to design a landscape friendly layout so I can understand that I would need to rebuild all my layouts for this particular use (We're talking about 100 layous here but oh well, I can manage it. )

I have a scrollable map app which for now has a huge bitmap. It loads fine on startup, but when it looses foreground status and the user brings it backs again im getting an out of memory error. In onPause it trashes the bitmap using recycle, and marks it as null. The onResume checks to see if map==null and will load the bitmap back again, which is crashing the program despite me recycling the bitmap...Here are some bits of code. All of the other references to Bitmap map first check if it is null before loading/drawing..............

I'm expanding on the hello world application. I've created a button on the main.xml to bring up a new form, screen2.xml, with a second button. I'd like this this button to toast a message. However, as soon as I try add the code to define the OnClickListener, I get a force close message.Does this mean one Activity can only access one screen/layout?

How does one access a particular widget from within a custom layout while using Alert Builder? As you can see below, I'm setting the alert to a widget that is created in the code, but I'd MUCH rather use predefined layout.
Current code:...................
However, whenever I try to do it the second way I get a null pointer exception.

My app Consists an intro page with "Start", "About", etc..
I managed to create a functional version of the app by having the "Start" button call a new layout in which a new onclick listener is defined.
This doesn't seem clean to me that I@m defining a new onClick listener for each Layout I use and wonder how the correct way would be to create individual pages (including my "About" and any other screens I implement).

Official android dev website says that:You can implement your tab content in one of two ways: use the tabs to swap Views within the same Activity,.....http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html
I just wanna use tabs to swap views, no more than one activity. is there any sample code?

I have read the Android UI trick 2 on Android developers, which tells people how to include a layout in another layout file multiple times, and give these included layouts different id. However, the sample here is overwriting the layout id, not the id of the views IN this layout. For example, if the workspace_screen.xml looks like this: And I include it three times in another layout file. Do I end up with three TextViews with id firstText, and another three with secondText? Isn't there an id collision? And how do I find the secondText TextView in the third included layout with findViewById? What should I input in the findViewById method?

For a rather crazy reason I am trying to pass a linear Layout from one activity to another. Should I use an intent extra for this? What would be the right way to create a Linear Layout in one activity and then spawn a new activity using that linear Layout.

I want to find the dimensions of the various views in my layout. My understanding is this can only be done after layout is completed since layout is somewhat dynamic. So, after the activity calls setContentView() and then returns control on the main thread to the OS so that layout can occur, how do I get a notification that layout has completed so I that I can query the views for their dimensions? On a related topic, can I find out the status bar's height or least the screen's full size (from which the status bar's height can be calculate by subtracting my window's height)?

I have this element in my layout XML:
<FrameLayout android:id="@+id/FrameLayout01"
android:layout_width="320sp" android:layout_height="380sp"
android:layout_gravity="center" android:background="#99CC33">
</FrameLayout>
And I want to get its position on the screen with getTop(), getBottom() but I want to do it only once.
I was trying to do it on the onCreate(), but those methods return all 0 as response.

How can I pass a string from an activity to a layout?
I can pass arrays from an activity to a layout with the following activity code...
Is there a simpler way to just pass a single string instead of any array of strings, from an activity to a layout?

I have a layout with two buttons, I want to disable or make unclikable one of the buttons when internet connection is lost and back to clickable when connection is regained. From my broadcast receiver I am calling another class(which extends activity and thus can call findViewById) which is attempting to change the main layout. App is force closing. What am I doing wrong here, any other ideas as to how to achieve what I am trying to do.

Is it possible to add a view dynamically that overlaps other views in the layout. I have Linear Layout defined for the activity. As part of the Layout I have a custom View. The content changes dynamically and sizes appropriately based on the content size, with fill_parent for width and wrap_content for height. But what I want is, dynamically take over the full screen and then based on a click go back to the normal mode. Is there a mode to display a view where - in it can overlap all other views in the layout?

I have a custom view (an extension of a TextView) that I want to dynamically add to my Layout (don't want to include it in the main.xml file).
The book says to fetch the RelativeLayout using findViewById() in my java code then create a new instance of my custom view, then use addView on the RelativeLayout to add the new view.
I'm not getting any errors, but when I click my button to add the new view, nothing is happening (view isn't being added). Do I need to set additional properties on my custom view (layout width, layout height for example) in order for it to be shown?

I want to add tabs to the layout of my activity, but I don't want the activity to extend TabActivity. The example in http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html only gave example of subclass of TabActivity.
Is there any way I can make it without extending TabActivity?

I'm trying to create a simple text based game in which I ask a question based on a movie. The list of movie's is in a text file which I've included in res/raw. So basically I want to have a default string, say "Who acted in", followed by the name of the movie. Could I have the first string (along with a submit button etc) in my res/layout/main.xml file, and follow that with the movies name, after I've extracted it from the text file in my activity, or does the layout have to be defined in one place only?

I want to do something very similar (in terms of appearance) to the app details activity of the Market app. It looks like a cross between linear layout (not all rows the same), list (scrolling nature), preferences (headings). My guess is its a linear layout in a scroll view (ignoring activity header/footer) and the headings are just hard coded.

I have an activity. It does not have a title bar. The content view is just a linear layout. It looks like android draws a drop shadow at the top of my content view, directly below the status bar. Is there a way to stop that from being drawn?
My layout is just:
I have no titlebar:
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
