Android :: Gravity Vs Layout_gravity?
May 14, 2009
What is the difference between those attributes? According to the documentation of R.attr, there isn't any difference (doc text is exactly the same, see http://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.attr.html), but apparently, that's simply not true. For example, the gravity attribute can be used on EditText to set the text alignment (e.g. left, center, right).
I often found that neither of them work to align a view at all. For example, I need to float two text views in a relative layout, one going to the left below a title bar, the other going to the right below the title bar. So what I did was this:
CODE:...............
That doesn't work, however. The left text is indeed aligned to the left inside its parent (the relative layout), but the right text is not aligned to the right; instead, it's placed directly to the right of the left text.

I know we can set the following value to the anroid:gravity and android:layout_gravity :
center
center_vertical
center_horizontal , etc.
But i am confused regarding these both. what is the difference between the usage of android:gravity and android:layout_gravity?

The property android:layout_gravity="clip_vertical|horizontal" does the following as mentioned in the sdk documentation:
Additional option that can be set to have the top and/or bottom edges of the child clipped to its container's
bounds. The clip will be based on the vertical gravity: a top gravity will clip the bottom edge, a bottom gravity will clip the top edge, and neither will clip both edges.
But I can't see anything of this in my applications. so what is the purpose of this property exactly ?

I have 4 buttons in a horizontal linear layout. I'd like the right edge of the 4th button to align with the right edge of the linear layout (equal to screen width) I've tried using android:layout_gravity="right" but it doesn't work - the right button is to the right of the 3rd one but not right aligned . Am I missing something obvious?
main.xml with only the relevant layout params only is:
CODE:....
This doesn't seem to match the stated behaviour for layout_gravity in the SDK reference :"Defines how to place the view, both its x- and y-axis, within its parent view group."

I'm obviously missing something fundamentally simple here. I have a LinearLayout containing 2 buttons. I've coloured the layout background red so I can see that it has expanded to fill its parent. I wanted the BooButton to center horizontally within the layout and the OtherButton to be right justified. But both buttons are on the left of the layout.
CODE:..................

I would like to know if is there a way to call android:layout_gravity property from a java method. I didn't found any method in Android documentation to do it. This is the picture of the layout I want to implement: But in my situation, I need to do it through Java code, because I'll implement another layout views dinamically. To avoid merging xml layout with Java code, I would prefer make all layout using Java. Code...

I know this question is definitely solved somewhere many times already, please enlighten me if you know of their existence,
Quick rundown:
I want to compute from a 3 axis accelerometer the gravity component on each of these 3 axes.
I have used 2 axes free body diagrams to work out the accelerometer's gravity component in the world X-Z, Y-Z and X-Y axes. But the solution seems slightly off, it's acceptable for extreme cases when only 1 accelerometer axis is exposed to gravity, but for a pitch and roll of both 45 degrees, the combined total magnitude is greater than gravity (obtained by Xa^2+Ya^2+Za^2=g^2; Xa, Ya and Za are accelerometer readings in its X, Y and Z axis).
More detail:
The device is a Nexus One, and have a magnetic field sensor for azimuth, pitch and roll in addition to the 3-axis accelerometer.In the world's axis (with Z in the same direction as gravity, and either X or Y points to the north pole, don't think this matters much?), I assumed my device has a pitch (P) on the Y-Z axis, and a roll (R) on the X-Z axis. With that I used simple trig to get:
Sin(R)=Ax/Gxz
Cos(R)=Az/Gxz
Tan(R)=Ax/Az
There is another set for pitch, P.Now I defined gravity to have 3 components in the world's axis, a Gxz that is measurable only in the X-Z axis, a Gyz for Y-Z, and a Gxy for X-Y axis.Gxz^2+Gyz^2+Gxy^2=2*G^2 the 2G is because gravity is effectively included twice in this definition. Oh and the X-Y axis produce something more exotic I'll explain if required later.From these equations I obtained a formula for Az, and removed the tan operations because I don't know how to handle tan90 calculations (it's infinity?).So my question is, anyone know whether I did this right/wrong or able to point me to the right direction?

I can use android:gravity="bottom|center_horizontal" in xml on a textview to get my desired results but I need to do this programmatically.
My textview is inside a tablerow if that matters in a relativelayout.
I have tried:
CODE:........
But if I understand that correctly, that would apply it to the tablerow? not the textview?

I have ScrollView with RelativeLayout as a child of ScrollView. I am trying through JAVA code to set Layout_Gravity to CENTER so my RelativeLayout is centered (horizontally and vertically) in the middle of ScrollView (that covers whole screen).This works fine in XML and produces desired result, but when I try to do this programmatically, it seems there is no way to set Layout_Gravity of RelativeLayout. I tried using LayoutParams, but couldn't find anything there that would help me to center RelativeLayout in the middle. So, am I missing something or this simply can't be done?

I need to create a GUI (layout+views) in my .java activity class (I know it's far more flexible and easier to use .xml layout file, but I don't want to use it for now).
I can't find any setGravity() (but a "Gravity" object I can't figure how to use) or any set setMargin() method for the "View" object. What is the easiest way to do it?

Has anyone tried to write his own implementation of ViewGroup with some TextViews in it? I have a problem, that TextViews in such an implementation don't respect gravity attribute (TextView.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);) and text is positioned in the top left corner.
If enyone is interested, I just overwrote method onMeasure() (for all my TextViews) and changed call from super.onMeasure() to setMeasuredDimension(int, int) and gravity started to work normally.
Basically, in my custom layout I use the following class to display text:

I'm unable to change the layout_gravity of a Button programmatically, does anybody know how to do this?The gravity attribute is easily changed using Button.gravity(), Ie it changes the gravity of the text inside the button I cannot change the gravity of the button itself. I also cannot seem to find this in any of the layout params contructors.

Gravity Fights 2.0. Inspired by the Amiga Classic GRAVITY FORCE, the new Android shooter GRAVITY FIGHTS 2.0 is a great psychedelic experience. The involving planet Synapsys is populated by the infinite sides of reality in the space of an insane mind. To let the energy flow in the planet, shot all the triggers of illusion that fragment its mind to open the doors of perception.

I just recently released my new game Gravity Tow.
Gravity Tow is an addictive and challenging action game which could be best described as 'Reverse Doodle Jump.' It has an online high-score where you can compare your results to others. The aim of the game is to pull up the waste container as high as possible by activating gravity fields.
After the second interplanetary war, you work as a waste disposal manager and shoot containers with nuclear waste into the general direction of planet Dork 42.
Full story including crappy trailer: Gravity Tow Homepage
It is available now from Android Market: Gravity Tow
It requires Android 1.6 or higher, works also on older phones.

The Samsung Gravity Smart has extremely limited internal memory. The new Playstore App automatically installs itself every time I download another app. Then, I have to remove the Playstore app before I do anything else, because the Playstore app has consumed all of the memory.
Isn't there something that I can do to stop the Playstore app from installing itself?

why my Android's internal storage is full. I don't think I have anything on there except for the 18 stock apps I have (including apps like titanium backup, and Link2SD that came with my ROM). I've gotten rid of all the bloatware on the phone, deleted most of my cache, and moved all of my downloaded apps to the SD card. I've even gone as far as to replace the web browser with Opera mini (and put it on the SD card), and prevented the device from installing a 10 MB update for the google play store. Even though the phone only has 14 MB (138/152 MB), I would think that would be more than enough to receive text messages. The phone doesn't even want me to do that.
I do have a few thoughts as to what could be causing this problem. First off, even after I've deleted an app via titanium backup, the app still appears in titanium backup with a line through it. This leads me to believe that the app still has data left on the phone. Second, I'm thinking Link2SD isn't actually moving all of the app to the SD card. In that case, I guess I don't have any choice but to remove all of my extra apps.
I actually have one solution that may or may not work. If I could somehow make the device treat my extra (32 GB) SD card into thinking it's the phone's external storage, then I wouldn't have to worry about overloading it at all. Would this work flawlessly?
Here's some extra information that may or may not be useful.

I'm trying to open a dialog window, but every time I try to open it it throws this exception:
CODE:.................
I'm creating it by calling showDialog with the display's id. The onCreateDialog handler logs fine and I can step through it without an issue, but I've attached it since it seems like I'm missing something:
CODE:............
Is there something missing from this? Some questions have talked about having this problem when creating a dialog from onCreate, which happen because the activity isn't created yet, but this is coming from a call from a menu object, and the appContext variable seems like it is correctly populated in the debugger.

I'm writing an application which connects to a back office site. The backoffice site contains a whole slew of JavaScript functions, at least 100 times the average site. Unfortunately it does not load them, and causes much of the functionality to not work properly. So I am running a test. I put a page out on my server which loads the FireBugLite javascript text. Its a lot of javascript and perfect to test and see if the Android WebView will load it. The WebView loads nothing, but the browser loads the Firebug Icon. What on earth would make the difference, why can it run in the browser and not in my WebView? Any suggestions.
More background information, in order to get the stinking backoffice application available on a Droid (or any other platform except windows) I needed to trick the bakcoffice application to believe what's accessing the website is Internet Explorer. I do this by modifying the WebView User Agent.Also for this application I've slimmed my landing page, so I could give you the source to offer me aid. package ksc.myKMB;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.app.Dialog;
import android.app.ProgressDialog;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuInflater;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.Window;
import android.webkit.WebChromeClient;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class myKMB extends Activity {
I already have JavaScript on the web browser on, the problem is the web view is acting to different from the web browser.

1- Does Android Browser (Éclair code base) support the "plug-in" or not?
2- Why "Google Gears" support is removed from the clair code base?
I searched the forum and came to know that earlier version of the Android does not support it at all? Here is the link for that, but this query asked in Dec'2008.
