Android :: Make ListPreference Multiple Choice In Droid?
Aug 10, 2010I am trying to create a preference dialog window that allows the user to select more then one item in the list. Currently it only allows you to select one item. Is there an easy way to do this? I have looked all over the internet and not seen a way as of yet.

Jul 18, 2010So I'm in the process of needing a new phone, I've went through three blackberries and I am honestly tired of them, the only benefit is BBM and I can live without it...
Questions :
1. If I get the X10, since it it currently running 1.6, if I root and upgrade to 2.1...
Do I get Multi-Touch capabilities? Will it run smoother and more efficently?
2. Should I just wait for Sony to release their proprietary stuff and hope they do well?
3. Is the X10 really worth it? I'm between it and an Iphone right now, not much else of an option for a full touch on the Rogers network here in Canada for the phone selection that I have. You can see all the phones I am able to get here. (By this I mean these are literally the phones I can pick from, I get them as free upgrades)
Android :: WTF - Dialog Multi Choice Items - White Text On List Background
Feb 16, 2009I've been beating my head against the wall on this one for a minute now... did I find another bug like the list selector solid color one? When I set multichoice items for a dialog as seen below my list items have white background and white text, when I click or select an item I can see the text becomes black and the orange list selector shows as expected.... anyone know what's up?.............

Sep 18, 2009I read http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/resources-i18n.html. But it shows how to localize your app for the currently selected locale of the phone. However, I want to add a "language" option into my own app, and allow the user to switch the UI language independent of the phone's locale setting.
My currently solution is to manage a string table myself, and dynamically edit the text string of every UI element. However, this is rather tedious. Is there a better way?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Draw On Screen And Create Multi-layered Paintings With Different Brushes - Colors
Nov 11, 2009I write graphics apps for the iPhone and I'm looking to port my most recent app, 'Layers,' to the Android platform. Layers is painting app that allows users to draw on the screen and create multi-layered paintings with different brushes, colors, etc... and export to PSD. It's got desktop sync, a smudge tool, lots of good stuff... http://www.layersforiphone.com/
I started looking at the Android platform Monday and I've run into a major problem. I use OpenGL to do all the drawing because it offers the best performance. However, there are several places where I need to render into a texture and then use the texture.
For example:
Use brush texture and a line of sprites to create a black paint stroke in texture A Put brush color+alpha in glColor4f and then draw texture A onto the screen.
On the iPhone, I do this continually as the user's finger moves and I am able to achieve 12-15fps on a 1st gen iPod Touch. It's necessary because applying color and alpha to the individual sprites making up the brush stroke doesn't produce the right result (since sprites overlap and make the stroke too dark).
The android platform supports OpenGL ES 1.0 but seems to omit key functions for dealing with framebuffers. I can't find a way to bind a texture to the framebuffer and draw into it using OpenGL.
Here's how I'd normally go about it on the iPhone:
CODE:....................
Is there anything like this on the Android platform? On the iPhone, OpenGL is significantly faster than software-based drawing and is the only viable solution (trust me - I wrote a CoreGraphics painting app too...). Maybe there's another route I could take on Android? I'm willing to jump through whatever hoops are necessary, but I won't publish the app unless performance is good (10fps+ as you're drawing on the screen).
Android :: Getting Key From ListPreference
Oct 2, 2009When using a PreferenceActivity to do preferences, the PreferenceScreen can contain a ListPreference. A ListPreference has an array of keys and an array of values. But the PreferenceActivity only writes the values to SharedPreferences. How do I get the key of the item selected from the list? I would have thought this is pretty fundamental, especially if you want to translate your app.

Mar 25, 2010I'm using listpreference in my android app and getting my key values and all is well and works good (now that you guys have helped me) BUT - when my listpreference menus popup, they only contain a cancel button. Let's say the user is choosing between red, blue, and green. When the listpreference dialog first pops-up, the dialog only shows a cancel button. Because of that, the dialog disappears as soon as the user selects their choice. I would like it so that when the user chooses their setting, they see the radio button get highlighted and then they go ahead and click the ok button...but I don't have an ok button and can't figure out why.

Android :: Dynamic Content Of ListPreference
May 28, 2010I want to put a ListPreference in my preference screen. But all the examples I have found in Internet the content are loaded out of a xml and I need that de options in the ListPreference are dynamic and not previously defined (in a xml).
I have mi preferences.xml in the folder xml/ of my project;
this is the code of preferences.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Android :: Display Current Value Of XML ListPreference
Mar 6, 2010I have an XML preferences screen which is handled by addPreferencesFromResource. On it, there is a ListPreference, for which I want the summary to contain the current value of that preference. I think this would be a common requirement, as otherwise you could not see the present value of the preference without expending a click. I read that the summary field supports resource references, and I see that I can refer to preferences as android:summary="@+preference/prefname" in my ListPreference. Clearly this is why resource references would be supported in this field. However, when I try this, instead of the present value of prefname, the text "false" appears as the summary. Does anybody know how to display a current value without taking the seemingly ridiculous step of rewriting the entire (large) preference screen in Java?

Android :: ListPreference In Preference View
Jan 17, 2010This is my first Android app (which is a soft keyboard, with dvorak layout) and so far it has gone pretty smoothly (either because or despite working from the sample code). I've had some problems (with special/swedish characters) that I've managed to take care of, but this problem I can't figure out how to solve..
But when I click the list item to edit it, i get an empty dialog (Title and button is shown right and with the text I set in the xml- file, but no list, screenshot: http://i49.tinypic.com/2501p55.png ). I can't see any problem with the program code (which isn't many lines..) or the xml (the arrays are generated by the Android utils in Eclipse and the preferences is a mix of auto and manual). You can see both Java code and XML here: http://pastebin.com/m4c52c3a2 (titles etc in Swedish..) (I've also tried a EditTextPreference item, which seemed to work fine..) I have also looked at the log/output using adb, and can't see any problems there either, so I have no idea onto how to solve this.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Using Listpreference And Retrieving Key String
Mar 23, 2010I have a settings menu that pops up and in it is a listpreference type menu. It is associated with a settings.xml file where there are 'array-strings' within it. It all works good but I don't know how to retrieve the users preference. As an example, let's say the user picks a color (red, green, or blue). The list that I've made within my 'array-strings' contain the text red, green, and blue. Within my code, I would like to do something if the user has choosen red, something else if they choose blue, etc., etc. Would I use a 'case' statement or an 'if' statement? And most importantly, how would I retrieve the users preference - the key? (am I checking for a boolean?)

Android :: Check Value Of ListPreference In OnResume()?
Oct 12, 2010I have a ListPreference with the entries and entryValues correctly set. When I go in the prefernces activity and change the value it successfully works (I added a Toast to output the value after changing the option to test). But when I do the following to compare it, it always executes the else statment when I change it everytime, even like above when I changed the ListPreference and the value was "bluesky" it still failed to execute the correct if statement. Here's the code I use to check the value of the ListPreference in the onResume():
SharedPreferences prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this)
String backgroundPref = prefs.getString("backgroundPref", "");
if(backgroundPref == "bluesky"){
mainLayout.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.bluesky);
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Blue Sky", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}else if(backgroundPref == "sky"){
mainLayout.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.sky);
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Sky", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}else{
mainLayout.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.sunsetscene);
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Sunset Scene", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
The Toasts are there so I can double check which statement gets executed, and it always seems to be the else one. Am I having a bad day and getting something wrong?
Android :: ListPreference To Play Sound Is Not Working

Mar 2, 2010I am trying to put together a modal box with a scrollable list of checkable items and an OK and Cancel button at the bottom for the user to select filters from. It seems the simplest way to do things like this in Android is to reuse API components (widgets, layouts, etc) and the closest one I can find to this looks to be the ListPreference, which basically does exactly what I want (I can even work with storing the data in SharedPreferences). The problem is that I'm not launching this modal box from a PreferenceActivity, but rather will be launching it from either of two activities: a ListActivity and a MapActivity.

Android :: Load ListPreference Items From Adapter?
May 29, 2010I'm setting out to create a settings activity for my app. I've defined a PreferenceActivity with a nice layout including a ListPreference object for the user to select a bluetooth device. I'm having trouble dynamically populating the list. I would like to populate ListPreference with values from an array adapter (which I'll create and populate with relevant bluetooth device names). If this were a spinner View, I could just call setAdapter(). However with the ListPreference object I can't figure out how to attach an adapter (findviewByID won't cast from View To ListPreference, so I can't even get a handle to the object). I would like to attach an adapter and then populate the adapter with values, which in turn would populate the ListPreference with values.
