Android :: Detect Clipping In TextView

Oct 14, 2009

I have a TextView in my android application that has a set width on it. It's currently got a gravity of "center_horitonzal" and a set textSize (9sp). I pull values to put on this label from a sqlite database, and some of the values are too large to fit in the TextView at the current textSize.

Is there a way to detect that the text inside a TextView is going to be clipped? I'd like to detect this, and lower the font until it fits. There is a nice property in the iPhone UILabel that handles this called "adjustToFit" (which also has a minimum font size), and I'm basically trying to emulate that.

Here's an example of the TextView that I'm working with:

CODE:........................

Android :: Auto-centering And Auto-clipping TextView Background

Apr 4, 2010

Is there a way to tell Android to do the following when setting the background image for a TextView?

1. Scale the image so that it's just large enough to fill the the entire viewing area without any black borders, while still maintaining its aspect ratio. This might require clipping once the image is actually displayed, but that's OK (read on).

2. Then, center the image in the viewing area, both horizontally and vertically.

3. Finally, clip the image to the size of the viewing area, without any further rescaling.

I'm guessing that this kind of image processing is not automatically done via any of Android's facilities, and that I'll have to do it myself. If this is a correct assumption, could someone point me to some documentation or some examples which could explain how I can accomplish this? I'm guessing that I'll have to subclass my TextView and implement my own onDraw() method, but could someone confirm or deny that assumption?

Android :: How To Get Around Clipping Issues With My App In Smaller Phones

Nov 23, 2010

I have a basic linear layout, with image view that display photos, textviews that show text etc...and when I test my whole app on my android 2, there is never any part of the screen that doesn't show. But when I test it in the QVGA emulator, half the view is off the screen. Now, some of my text is defined to a certain size.

I never use px (only dip) in any of my xml. I use fill_parent, wrap_content where it is needed and never fix a height or length. Could it be with my text, I use say, textSize = 22dip? I couldn't find documentation on why that would not work in all sizes. Could it be that some apps need to be programmed to those screen sizes? Or am I missing something?

Android :: Android RelativeLayout - Trying To Vertically Center A TextView When The TextView Below Has No Text

Jul 14, 2010

I have a ListView that contains an Image on the left of two vertically-oriented TextViews using a RelativeLayout. When both TextViews have text it looks fine. Sometimes the TextView on the bottom won't have any text, and the problem is that the entire layout is several pixels above where it should be because it still reserves that space for text when there isn't any making the entire list have annoying blank gaps. I remember seeing an example of where someone made the layout not reserve the space, but I can't remember how he did it.

Create TextView On ActivityResult - No TextView Displaying

Jan 4, 2014

I'm trying to create a textView in the parent activity onActivityResult but the textView does not appear. There is an ImageView that takes up the whole parent activity. I can create a textView and place it, and it should go on top of the imageView?

In the parent class:

[HIGH]private void addClothes(int menuId) {
Intent chooseClothesIntent = new Intent(this, ChooseClothesActivity.class);
chooseClothesIntent.putExtra("menuId", menuId);
startActivityForResult(chooseClothesIntent, 1);
}[/HIGH]

[Code]...

then in my new activity:

[HIGH]@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
try {
ClothingItem ci = mListContents.get(position);
String imagePath = ci.getImagePath();

[Code]...

Android :: Detect The Usb Device

Dec 11, 2009

I have ported the Android to a x86 platform. And i want to detect the USB plug-in.But follow the information about the android.intent.action.MEDIA_MOUNTED in the SDK's DOC, i can't receive the event of the USB's plug-in. i have checked my code and it can receive the other event ( ps:intent action) .

Besides, in the CLI, i could mount the USB device to /sdcard but it couldn't mount automatically. have seen some source code about the mount and mountlistener and it should be effective. my SDK's version is 1.5.

Android :: Detect Car Acceleration In App

Jun 5, 2010

I want to incorporate some Accelerometer code into a Android application im working and want to see if this is possible. Basically what I need is for the code to detect car acceleration motion. I am not wanting to determine speed with the code but just distinguish if the phone is in a car and has accelerated motion (Hence the car is moving for the first time). I have gone through many different accelerometer applications to see if this motion produces a viable profile to go off of and it appears it does. Just looking for something that popups a "Hello World" dialog when it detects your in the car and its moving for the first time down the street. Any help would be appreciated and a simple yes or no its possible would work. I would also be interested in compensating anyone that is capable of doing this as well.

Android :: Detect End Of Scroll

Jun 6, 2010

I need to implement HorizontalScrollView which is scrolled to predefined positions (similar to Home behaviour). It works with slow gestures, but does not work with neither flings nor arrow key press.

I hooked to View.onScrollChanged() and it is called when scrolling happened, but I can't determine when scrolling animation ends.

In theory there should be a way to say that fling movement is over. Is there such API?

Android :: Detect If An App Was Uninstalled

Apr 21, 2010

Is there a way to get a system notification when an app has been uninstalled?I would like to maintain a table of all clients' info currently using my app. However, that seems impossible if there is no way to detect this event. The first solution I can think of is to have an always running service in the background listening for android.intent.action.PACKAGE_REMOVED. But then would that service be killed once the uninstallation process has ended, or would it be stopped just before the process has kicked off? Also even if this is a solution it's has the potential to put off a lot of people when they realise that part of the app is running in the background.

Android :: How To Detect Homescreen?

Jun 5, 2009

I've asked "how to detect home screen" before. I'm still searching. I noticed when I press "home" button on Android emulator, I got this statement in catalog so I went to ActivityManager to see if I can find a clue there. Here is my findings: 1. I can not instantiate ActivityManager because it's constructor is not public, and it's not a singleton 2. it has a function called: getRunningAppProcesses sounds promising -- would it give me all the running processes? 3. since I can not instantiate ActivityManager I tried to use one of the derived class: RunningAppProcesseInfo to see if I can use it's parent methods: getRunningAppProcesses. Nope.

Android : How To Detect Correctly APN Changes?

Feb 10, 2010

In my application I need to react on APN changes (including going back and forth between WiFi and GSM connections) and change proxy settings in case it needs to be taken into account to connect with the network. I'm listening for ConnectivityManager.CONNECTIVITY_ACTION broadcasts to check for APN changes which contains 'reason' extra among others. Unfortunately the 'reason' for APN change is not documented, maybe it should not be used? I was using (with limited success) reason:apnChanged and reason:apnSetupComplete as indicators of APN change being done but that does not work well with going back and forth between WiFi and mobile connection. What is the correct way of listening for changes of current network APN/Interface?
