Android :: Layout Problem When Orientation Changed
Jun 23, 2010
My activity use the same RelativeLayout as it's content view whatever the orientation is. In this RelativeLayout, there is a FrameLayout align to it's bottom, and a TextView above this FrameLayout, just like :
CODE:...........
on android 1.5 device when orientation changed, the TextView lies in the wrong place, middle when portrait, bottom when landscape. on android 1.6 device It is ok.
How could I make it lies in the place where it should be on 1.5 device?

I have a program with two layouts: - layout/main.xml - layout-land/main.xml
Also, i have some images en drawable and drawable-land...
My problem is: When i change the orientation of the emulator (for examplo: portrait to landscape) i don't know how reload the main.xml layout to update the screen with the new positions....
If I launch the emulator in portrait the application load the portrait layout, and if I launch the emulator in landscape mode the application load the landscape layout, but if I change the orientation in execution mode the application don't load the new layout...
How can I reload the layout?

I'm facing some problems with the progress dialogs. I use a managed progress dialog to show the user that an operation is being carried out with the following code written in the onCreateDialog(int id) function.When the operation completes I call dismissDialog(PROGRESS_DIALOG). The problem is that if I rotate the phone while the progress dialog is displayed then when the operation completes the dismiss call has no effect and the progress remains showing. And this I cannot understand why.

I snap a photo, and it gets placed onto an ImageView. When the user sees the page where the Image View is, and I turn the phone sideways where the orientation is horizontal, the app immediately returns to the app's main screen.

While working on orientation change I have found that the onConfigurationChanged is not getting called when changing the orientation from portrait to landscape.But when I am changing from landscape to portrait the method is getting called. Is it the correct behavior because the onConfigurationChanged should by called whenever we are changing the orientation. (android:configChanges="orientation")? I have also found one strange behavior or error, When we are changing from portrait to landscape orientation the string value is displayed correctly(automatically by android system) but when in am changing the orientation from landscape to portrait the same string is displayed(i.e the string in landscape mode).The expected behavior is the string id specified in the portrait mode should be displayed.Is it an platform bug or something wrong in my code/programming.

I understand how to force a specific orientation per activity in the android manifest. I would like to know if it is possible to allow the keyboard to change orientation even though the activity(the layout really) must remain unchanged.

I 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.

I got my hands on Android which is really fun. But at some point I don't seem to understand the concept. I've got a Main class which reads like this:
CODE:....
In the onCreate(...) I set the layout to setContentView(R.layout.main); and add an OnTouchEvent Listener to the sole View in main.xml: myView.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {@Override public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event){...
As you can see I also implemented a SensorEventListener which is used if required. All works fine so far.
But my problem is this (at this point my misunderstanding kicks in): whenever I rotate the device the onCreate(), onStart() etc. methods are called, causing my app to act as if it just started. Furthermore, I feel unable to implement an onSizeChanged(int w, int h, int oldw, int oldh) { ... } Listener.
Can anyone please explain where my error in reasoning is? I am working on a tiny app which is more or less done, except for the just mentioned bug(s). Maybe I got it all wrong but it does what it is supposed to do (i.e. sending touch positions and accelerometer data over the network via UDP).

ndroid:textColor, that I get a changed titlebar for my HelloWorlApp, that is fine. But somehow on the left and right side there is some margin and I still can see some Grey from the original titlebar.
What did I wrong?

I figured that I can have custom layout for each orientation just by making two folders layout-port and layout-land. So I put different views in these folders. Worked well.
Now, I have a webview in my activity and it reloads whenever there is any change in orientation. So to prevent that I put android:configChanges="orientation" in my manifest file.
After putting this the reloading stopped but the contents in the layout-port started getting selected for landscape mode as well.

I've been trying to solve this for awhile now, and still couldn't find a solution to it. To properly display my SirfaceView consumed by the camera, I have forced my activity's layout in landscape mode. However, in my app the camera functionaluty will be mostly used in portait mode, and therefore all other views in the same activty have to be in portrait mode. Needless to say if I don't force the activity in landscape, the SurfaceView is 90 degrees rotated.

The xml files that contains the Activity layouts can be rendered by Eclipse.
How do I get that Eclipse screen area to have vertical orientation, not horizontal (inside Eclipse - it correctly shows as vertical in the emulator)?

is there a way to have a view use a different layout when an orientation change occurs. suppose i want the view to look one way in portrait and another way in landscape. all the same data, but arranged differently.I'm thinking one way to do this would be to have two different linear layouts with android:visibility="gone" and simply display the appropriate one (set android:visibility="visible") based on orientation -- i.e. do this from code.is there a way to do this in xml? or something like this (i.e. in landscape, put the textview here, in portrait, put it here instead)?

I have played around a bit with the xml files for creating layouts and can't explain the behaviour of layout_weight when using it in a LinearLayout that has orientation="vertical"
When creating a layout that is horizontal everything follows the documentation, that a child would get more space if it's has the highest value.
But the following code for vertical orientation, give more space to the item with lowest weight.
CODE:..........
And the question is: Is this a bug or just a feature that maybe need more documentation?

For example, when in landscape mode, the TableLayout is 3x2 and when
in portrait mode, the TableLayout is 2x3?

I'm trying to write a program that needs smooth orientation sensor samples as the phone is rotated all around. Every time the orientation of the phone is changed, it interrupts the data and freezes the program while the layout changes. How can I lock it in one orientation (landscape or portrait, it doesn't matter)? I assume it has something to do with android:layout in the xml file, but I can't find anything online.

I have created an activity for my game which handles all orientation changes by itself and has a fixed "portrait" layout. Actually it uses the accelerometer and is rendered using 2D canvas methods. If the level has been completed I show up a highscore dialog in which the user can enter his name. The dialog is floating above the underlying level screen which gets blurred out nicely. This generally works.
Problem is that the dialog does not get rotated if the orientation of the phone changes. So even if the keyboard is exposed the dialog is shown in portrait mode instead of landscape. I have tried to use an activity with dialog theme instead but the behavior didn't change. After several tries it seems that I have found the reason for this: Once there's an activity with fixed orientation in the activity stack then all subsequent activities keep this orientation, too. They will not react on orientation changes anymore (e.g. if the keyboard gets exposed).
After upgrading to 1.5 SDK the described behavior changed a little bit. Now at subactivities indead react on orientation changes like expected. However, the need to have an opaque background! That means that neither dialogs nor activities with dialog theme will work. Those will stick with the orientation of the underlaying activity. So my workaround is to first start a sub-activity with an opaque black background. This activity then shows my highscore dialog on top. It looks quite okay but I wonder if there's a better solution? Is it possible to show a dialog above a fixed portrait or landscape activity which automatically adapts to orientation changes?

I have a problem with working with the ORIENTATION values of the SensorManager. I would like to have some kind of 360°-value which directly shows me if the phone is in normal portrait (0°), landscape, portrait turned around (180°) or anything in between. So I could have, for example, an arrow that points to the floor (like gravity would do with a plummet) all the time, no matter how I tilt (sidewards) the phone. I thought this would be easy, but I'm pretty confused at the moment.
First of all, the X value of the orientation-array seems to correspondent with how I turn the phone, BUT: if it's completely uprightly standing, this value is about 60° ... why not 0° (or 90°, 180°, 270°), as I would expect?
Second: The value resets if I turn the phone and Android automatically changes screen orientation. So both in Portrait and in Landscape mode it will be sth. like 60° when the phone is in a 0° angel in real world. I set "android:screenOrientation" to "landscape" but this doesn't help anything :/
I want the app NOT to change orientation when I turn the phone, but I want it to get a continuous orientation value when I tilt the phone.

While developing for Android, I am unable to open more than one main.xml file in an Eclipse editor at a time.Each time I open one, it simply replaces the editor (tab) of the first main.xml with the new one, instead of opening a new tab - even if the contents of the existing tab were unsaved.Even stranger, I can open multiple main.xml files from different projects with no problems.This only happens when they're within the same project.

Is it possible to build a GridView object in XML with 3 columns and 4 rows of Image buttons? It doesn't seem to have similar containment relationship like LinearLayout or RelativeLayout viewgroups.
I want to do this entirely in an xml layout file. When I put ImageButton xml tags inside a GridView xml body, The layout panel in eclipse is throwing an exception: UnsupportedOperationException:addView(View, LayoutParams) is not supported in AdapterView.
