Android :: Get Original Index / Position Of Item Instead Of One Showing In Filtered Text

Mar 26, 2010

I am creating a list .. the elements of the list are drawn from sqlite database .. I populate the list using ArrayList and ArrayAdapter ...upon clicking the items on the list I want to be able to fire an intent containing info about the item clicked ... info like the index number of the item .. using the method : onItemClick(AdapterView av, View v, int index, long arg)

I do get index of the item clicked . however it is of the list currently displayed . the problem comes when I do setFilterTextEnabled(true) , and on the app type in some text to to search some item ..and then click it ..rather than giving me the index of the item on the original list it gives me the index on filtered list..

following is the snippet of code:
myListView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> av, View v, int index, long arg) {
Intent lyricsViewIntent = new Intent(iginga.this, LyricsPage.class);
lyricsViewIntent.putExtra("title", songList.get((int)arg).getTitle());
lyricsViewIntent.putExtra("id", songList.get((int)arg).getSongId());
startActivity(lyricsViewIntent);
}
});
myListView.setTextFilterEnabled(true);

Is there any way I can get the original index /position of the item instead of the one showing in filtered text ...when filtered.

Android :: ListView - Index And Position Behavior Upon Restart()

May 19, 2010

I am using a ListView with an ArrayAdapter that holds objects. When I select an item, I am capturing the position and index of the selected item. If I scroll down prior to selection, the position and index represent the location of the item in the list. Selecting that items takes me to another activity. When I use the back button to return to the list, it seems that the ListView gets a new position and index for the visible items.

As a result, I can't figure out how to reference the selected item during the restart() of the ListView Activity. I have tried to capture position and index, but as I've said, they change upon returning to the Activity.

Is my understanding of the ListView "redraw" correct? Does it renumber my items based on what's visible? -When in the life cycle is getView() called? Is there a way to force an update to the ListView so that my captured index still points to the same object?

Android :: Get Data Index Of Visible Item

Jan 4, 2010

I have an Android ListView created with a SimpleAdapter that has more items in it than fit in the screen. After the list has been scrolled, I need to get the position in the data model of the first visible item in the list.Basically I want a function like: listView.getChildAt(0).getPositionInDataModel().Adapter has a few functions in it, like getItemId(position) that looked useful; however, the SimpleAdapter implementation just returns the passed in position, not a row id like I'd hoped.A brute force solution would be to get the View at index 0, and compare it to the view for each item in the adapter.However, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to get the view for a particular position from the adapter.

Android :: Update Item Position On Map Doesn't Work?

Nov 18, 2010

i have an android app, with a actitity, that shows a map, with a position. This possition is updated on sharedPreferences with a service... ok, that works fine. I need that my activity implements runnable to be a thread that read's the position of sharedPreferences each 1000ms and then update the item position on the map... but it doesn't works. As i saw in debug mode, my thread doesn't work fine, ONLY ENTER ONE TIME on RUN() method... i mean that never enters into RUN() method again, only one time, cause this, the positions doesn't be updated on the map. What is wrong? why this thread doesn't work fine?

public class Locate extends MapActivity{

private TextView userText = null;
private TextView permissionText = null;
private TextView lastUpdateText = null;

Android :: Context Menu On Table Layout How To Get Selected Item Position?

Jan 22, 2010

Context Menu seems quite handy as long as we are using an AdapterView as we can easily get selected item position in onContextItemSelected from AdapterContextMenuInfo.position Any idea how we can achieve something similar in a TableLayout? In my TableLayout, i have some TableRow and i would like to get the row index in the onContextItemSelected callback like i would do with a simple ListView. I guess i will have to register the contextmenu for each row? but how can tie the row index with the menu? i see no way to do it with registerForContextMenu.

Jan 31, 2010

i'm trying to use TabHost and TabWidget in my Android application.The problem is that i do not want my tabs to be so tall (65px). However, if i set the layout_height of the TabWidget to e.g. 30px, i can't see the tab labels (indicator) on the tabs at all.Seems like there is a "minimum required" height for the TabWidget (65px?) and the indicator is positioned at the bottom of this 65px?Is there a way to adjust the positioning of the indicator?

Android :: Drawing Word-wrapped Text At Arbitrary Position On A Canvas

Jan 16, 2010

I believe I know the basics and have successfully published a nice graphical game (Tairu). I know about inflating an xml layout and instantiating views that work.

For my current project, I really just want something similar to the Windows 'DrawText' function where it will draw a bit of a text inside an arbitrary rectangle of the surface, and do word wrap within that rectangles boundaries. That's what I really WANT, but I can't find any form of drawText that will wrap.

So, while that's what I WANT, I can accept the thought of programmatically instantiating a TextView (which wraps beautifully). But I still need to be able to provide the rectangle, which is highly dynamic. (which is why I want to call a form of drawText inside of my onDraw method). In this particular case, I have something which is static to a particular view instance (I mean, the View becomes visible, the position is set, and does not change after that. but the text position is dependent on game state and cannot be pre-determined inside an XML layout). So in this one case, I could afford the expense of runtime recalculation of the layout when the view is displayed.

OK, fine. So I do something like this:

CODE:......

Pretend you didn't see 'AbsoluteLayout' there, I am desperate and have tried all possible layout classes

main_frame is defined in my main XML layout (it is the outermost layout, fills the parent, and, as I said, I've tried all the offered layouts)

With this code, the textView appears, but along the top of the layout, and not using the width I provided either.

Adding, out of desperation.

CODE:.......

makes no difference. In fact, so far, NOTHING has made any difference. So I thought, ok, while this seems like a useful thing to be able to do, I can accept if it can't. I accept that it is impossible to provide dimensions in advance and that you have to override the measure and layout callbacks then requestLayout and in your overrides, force the final layout for the TextView.

Of course, that is completely unacceptable for my FIRST desire (a drawText that wraps to a rectangle, called from onDraw as needed). But the point is I feel something like that OUGHT to work, and it doesn't, so clearly this is MY fault.

Getting back to what I WANT, I guess I can do it myself by repeated calls to measure text and parsing the string for spaces until I get the N characters which fit on the first line, then repeat for additional lines, calling a normal drawText for each line (and using textMetrics to determine the vertical offset to the next line.)

But why wouldn't that method already exist? I promise not to fill the screen with a zillion calls, and/or to cache pre-rendered text on some bitmap somewhere if antialiased drawText is too expensive to repeat frequently.

Android :: Multiple Concurrent Versions Of Same App / Filtered By Sdk Version?

Jul 30, 2010

I have an app on Android Market right now with a minSdkVersion corresponding to Android 1.6. I'd like to make an update that is only visible to users of Android 2.2 and higher (there is a good reason for this, which I will explain below). So I have two questions:
- First, if I publish an update with a higher minSdkVersion than the one it replaces, will existing users still be able to see and download the old version if their device is not >= that minSdkVersion? - Secondly, if so, would it be possible to publish updates to that older version branch? Or would it become a fossil relic, but at least always there for downlevel users? Now for the background. My apps use a large amount of resource files-- about 15MB for the Lite version, and about 55 for the Full version. Prior to Android 2.2, it was not possible to install an app on the SD card, so my solution to this was to have the app contain the bare essentials, and simply download the other resources from my web servers at first-run. However, this means that I must maintain external infrastructure, and it's also a bad experience for users who must download the app, then start another download sequence (I already have had several complaints about this in my user comments). What I would like to do is to keep the app as it is for users with Android OS < 2.2. I'd like to publish an update that is only visible to users with Android OS >= 2.2 which packages everything into the app and allows it to be stored on the SD card. And I'd like to be able to perform maintenance on both versions as needed. Why can't I just do the update as described above to a single branch of the app? Because it would mean that users with Android OS < 2.2 would have to download a massive application to their internal memory, which could be a deal-breaker for devices with only 128MB or 256MB, which is shared with the OS. Since I already have paying customers, I don't think I can ethically create an update that would potentially consume most of a user's internal memory, when the version they purchased was only a couple MB.

Android :: Need To Display A Filtered Version Of Camera Preview?

This is the code for my (very small) Activity: http://code.google.com/p/ruellia/source/browse/ruellia/src/br/com/ximp/ruellia/RuelliaActivity.java

I suspect the view layering and the surface holder type, but so far no luck... anyone?

Android :: How To Access Text Settings For Item In ListView?

Apr 6, 2010

I am having problems figuring out how to access text settings for an item in a ListView. I setup a basic ListView in my layout: xml:<ListViewandroid:id="@android:id/list"android:textColor="#ff000000"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:layout_x="1px"
android:layout_y="161px"android:visibility="visible"></ListView>My ListAdapter is a SimpleAdapter with a hashmap of values displayed in my ListView.

I have an onListItemClick method in my ListActivity which captures and properly identifies the item selected in my ListView. What I am trying to do is change the text color or font of the item that is selected in the method, onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id). Is there a way to access and change the text font and color using the ListView or View object from this method? I traversed the methods of each class and can't seem to find one that allows for that functionality.

Android :: List Item View With Text And Image

Android :: Filtered List View With Custom Adapter Not Updated

Mar 25, 2010

I have a ListView with a custom Adapter that extends ArrayAdapter. It's ArrayAdapter of Type Artist. (There are about 1200 artists in my list). Artist is a very small class that has a name and an id. The Artist Class has toString() overridden to return just the name. I have an EditText. The EditText has an TextChangeListener where I call .getFilter().filter(chars, callback) on my adapter. In the Filter.Filterlistener().onComplete() callback i print the count and it looks really good. As i type the count decreases. So it seams everything works as advertised, but the List stays the same. I tried to call artistAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged() to force the list to redraw, but nothing happens. [see 2.)]. I am tinkering around for days now! I am desperate. Hopefully someone can have a look on my code and tell me what I am doing wrong! How can I force the list to be redrawn?

Here is what I have done:
1.) Defined a ListView and an EditText like this:
<EditText xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/list_search_text"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="35dip"
android:layout_below="@id/header">
</EditText>
<ListView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/list_search"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
</ListView>

2.) Setup my ListView in the Activities onCreate():
private ListView listView = null;
private ArtistAdapter artistAdapter = null;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.search_artists);
artistAdapter = new ArtistAdapter(this, R.layout.row, list); // 'list' is an ArrayList<Artist>
listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list_search);
listView.setAdapter(artistAdapter);
listView.setFastScrollEnabled(true);
listView.setTextFilterEnabled(true);
listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> av, View v, int position, long id) {
// do something } });
EditText txtSearch = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.list_search_text); txtSearch.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
public void afterTextChanged(Editable arg0) { }
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence arg0, int arg1, int arg2, int arg3) { }
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence chars, int start, int before, int count) {
artistAdapter.getFilter().filter(chars, new Filter.FilterListener() {
public void onFilterComplete(int count) {
Log.d(Config.LOG_TAG, "filter complete! count: " + count);
artistAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}});
}});
}

3.) This is my ArtistAdapter in short. I added an remove() and add() method:
public class ArtistAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Artist> implements SectionIndexer {
private List<Artist> items;
/* other stuff like overridden getView, getPositionForSection,
getSectionForPosition and so on */
@Override
public void remove(Artist object) {
super.remove(object);
items.remove(object);
}
@Override
public void add(Artist object) {
super.add(object);
items.add(object);
} }

4.) My artist has also the toString() overridden:
public class Artist implements Comparable<Artist> {
public String uid;
public String name;
public Artist(String id, String name) {
this.uid = id;
this.name = name; }
public int compareTo(Artist another) {
return this.name.compareToIgnoreCase(another.name);
}
@Override
public String toString() {
return this.name;
} }
