I was just trying out with table layout to display some data....The data is a 3 column data and i want that the columns should utilize the whole width available. But it seems that the layout XML code which i had used is just wrapping up the columns according to the content.

I have a linear layout (oriented horizontally) that contains 3 buttons. I want the 3 buttons to have a fixed width and be evenly distributed across the width of the linear layout.I can manage this by setting the gravity of the linear layout to center and then adjusting the padding of the buttons, but this works for a fixed width and won't work for changing devices or orientations.
<Linear Layout android:id="@+id/LinearLayout01"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:gravity="center">
Button
android:id="@+id/btnOne"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:width="120dip"></Button><Button
android:id="@+id/btnTwo"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:width="120dip"></Button>Button
android:id="@+id/btnThree"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:width="120dip"></Button></Linear Layout>

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a two column TableLayout as the only child of a scroll view. The first column contains TextViews ('labels') and the second column contains EditText/Spinner/DateWidget etc ('values').
Even though I have have specified android:layout_width="fill_parent" for TableLayout, TableRow & all widgets (in 'values' column).
The screen looks perfect when the activity is created. However, when one types a really long value in the EditText, the 'values' column goes beyond the visible screen area.
I am on Android 2.1 and I have one multi column Custom listview Using BaseAdapter with an editable edittext at the end of the listview. If the data in the listview do not contain the data of user choice then user should be able to enter data. If the data is already there in the list user will be able to select the data using custom selector. If a selection is made in the list view and user wanted to enter data in the text field at the bottom after selection then the marker in the list view should be unselected. I tried to use onclick() method on edit text using click listener. First time when it is clicked, edit text is getting focus and onclick() method is not fired. And when it is clicked second time, onclick() method is fired and notifyDataSetChanged() method is called. I tried to call the notifyDataSetChanged() method from the Focus Listener, list view selection is gone in my first attempt and edit text is not receiving any data input from the keyboard (frozen).

I have been getting opinions that I should have gone for table layout could someone please save me from doing the work from scratch. I really dont want to do everything again. Thanks and sorry for the posts. Trust me this problem is different than last one.
I have a simple grid with rows of items and columns of options on each item. Of course I can manually link OnClick actions to cell items through specific resource IDs:
CODE:.............
What I'd prefer to to is use a ListView or a GridView and an Adapter. Is there a way to get cell id's from one of those? I was hoping that ListView setOnItemClickListener() would call me with the view id of a view within row 'position': onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View view, int position, long id) { ... }
But no go. Maybe a different approach?
Update:
I started with this:
CODE:.............
I'd assumed that I couldn't go into my Adapter and set child view OnClickListeners. Bad assumption. When I went back at this I gave it a try:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having a listview in my App which shows perfectly in Portrait mode. But when I change orientation to landscape, sometimes the width remains as that of Portrait mode. Even the scrollbar for the list comes at the center and remaining part of the screen remains blacked out. This happens only with the list view. Other views show perfectly. I have designed the layouts such that the Portrait layouts look feel proportionate in landscape mode. I want to avoid restarting the activity so I have not put the layouts in the landscape folder. I tried invalidating the listview in onConfigurationChanged() but of no use. When I navigate in the list in landscape mode, the width automatically gets adjusted.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am rendering a ListView inside a dialog. The ListView elements are very simple TextView objects. The problem: whatever I do, they never take the full width in the list view, which has the side effect that the list view selector only covers the actual text, not the whole list entry (i.o.w., if the text of the entry is much smaller than the width of the listview/dialog, then only a tiny portion of the list element is highlighted when focusing it).

I want my first screen to present the user with a list of activities to choose from. In my situation it is a recipe app where the user first chooses the type of food, such as, Beef, Chicken, or Pork. I want the application to launch an activity depending on the list item that the user clicked on. I am not sure if I should use a list view, a text view, a scroll view, a list activity, an activity group...
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis has got me all confused! I'm trying to return the max value from a column in my database but the return value is always the name of the column.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen views with different type have same id and screen orientation changes,
either java.lang.ClassCastException: android.view.AbsSavedState$1 or java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Wrong state class -- expecting View State will occur. (depends on the view's order)
Because View.dispatchRestoreInstanceState() checks id only.
You may wonder why anyone would make views with different type to have same id.
But it can happen when you use tab activity.
Imagine you have tab activity with two children activity.
Tab1 is ListActivity and Tab2 is ExpandableListActivity.
Both activity have id of "@android:id/list" but the type of view is different.
This means we cannot use ListActivity & ExpandableListActivit at the same in one tab activity.
I currently have a tab layout with 2 tabs, one tab with a list view and one with the option make strings so I can add them in the list view. Both tabs have their own activity because this made the code much more structured, and I dont have to repeat my self later.
Lets say im in the tab that offer me to create an string, and i press the update list button, how do I update the list view without startActivity()? If i use startActivity(), it starts List.java, and instead of displaying the list in the list view tab, it takes full screen, which defies the purpose of the tab view. In other words, the startActivity() steals the focus from the tab view of the list, and sends it fulscreen.
I want to update the activity in my list view tab, without starting a new activity that goes to fullscreen, and doesnt update the one in the tab.
I have this layout that works correctly, a relative layout with a text view and two buttons spaced evenly below it.
CODE:........
But running layoutopt it says that "this TableRow layout or its TableLayout parent is possible useless".
Is there a way to do this layout then without the tables?
I am displaying a table of values in my android application, and would like the columns to be distributed evenly in terms of size , instead of sizing according to content. Been playing around with stretchColumns but couldn't manage to figure out the right combination.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a simple question. I am trying to design a simple Android app, which based on keywords searches something and shows a listing view of results. Currently it merely searches SMSes in the cellphone.Here are some of the things I am faced with: I have a simple first page with a textbox and a submit button. It's rendered by "Activity" inherited class call SMS Finder.once I have the results present with me, I want them to be binded to a list view. Showing preview text to limited characters, say 20 chars. Clicking on the same should "ideally" open the inbox (or outbox or whatever) and open the SMS, however that meant I cannot come back to my app easily. So I would rather open the whole SMS in my own app. So clicking on the app should open the SMS in a new screen with complete message, sender info etc. Few questions here, For generic Android phone apps, what are the best practices to make UI as compliant to as many phones? Like what kind of views should I use?
