Jul 4, 2009I am working a widget... I'd like to change my widget background image dynamically, is it possible? I tried theme & style, it doesn't want to work. It doesn't show any background image (see code sample below). I tried RemoteViews.setImageViewResource on an ImageView filling the widget, but i doesn't strech my 9patch image correctly (and it doesn't seems to change background, it add another image). Is there a solution? Additionnal question : is it possible to use an external (sdcard) 9patch image as background? if yes: how?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: How To Update Widget Dynamically?
May 28, 2010I am currently learning about widgets in Android. I want to create a WIFI widget that will display the SSID, the RSSI (Signal) level. But I also want to be able to send it data from a service I am running that calculates the Quality of Sound over wifi. Here is what I have after some reading and a quick tutorial: public class WlanWidget extends AppWidget Provider {RemoteViews remoteViews; AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager; Component Name thisWidget; WifiManager wifiManager; public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidget Manager, int[] appWidgetIds) { timer timer = new Timer(); timer.schedule AtFixed Rate(new WlanTimer(context, appWidgetManager), 1, 10000); The above seems to work ok, it updates the SSID on the widget every 10 seconds. However what is the most efficent way to get the information from my service that will be already running to update periodically on my widget? Also is there a better approach to updating the the widget rather than using a timer and timertask?

Feb 3, 2010We would like to enable or disable widgets via code. When we say "disable" we mean that a widget which is registered in an application should not show up in the list of widgets available to the user when they try to add a widget to their home screen. This question has been asked, unfortunately, many times without answer. There was one response by Dianne Hackborn to a separate widget question which suggested that it was possible to use the package manager to disable widgets.

Android :: Dynamically Add View To Home Screen Widget?
Mar 5, 2010I am writing a home screen widget. Is it possible to add a View, e.g. ImageView, to a home screen widget through RemoteViews? I want to generate the views for the home screen widget dynamically.
updateViews = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), R.layout.widget_news);
updateViews.setTextViewText(R.id.widget_title, mTitle);
updateViews.setImageViewBitmap(R.id.widget_picture,
BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(image, 0, image.length));
My code is like above. But we I call updateViews.addView(aView), my IDE didn't allow me to do that and give me an compile error.
Android :: Change Title Of Tab Dynamically?
Feb 18, 2010I have three tabs in my Application. On an event under one Tab, i want to change the title of an another existing Tab. This is the title that we provide while adding the tabs to the TabHost.

Is there any way to accomplish this.
Android :: Change Opened Tab Dynamically
Oct 15, 2010I have an Android application which has four tabs (I use a main TabActivity with TabHost and TabSpecs).
In one of my sub activity (activity opened in a tab), i need to open a tab not by clicking on the tab title and i don't know how to do this.
For example, i have a button in my activity and when i click on it, it opens a different tab.
For the moment, it is what i do:
Intent intent = new Intent(myActivity.this, myTabActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("ComeFrom", true);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);
Then in the TabActivity, if i get true reading the "ComeFrom" extra i open the wished tab but the problem is that it kills all the other activity. So, if someone knows a better (cleaner) way to do that trick.
