Android :: Placing A LinearLayout Inside A TableLayout?
Nov 8, 2010
Im trying to place an image and some text in my view, with the image being twice the height of the text so that the two rows of text can be placed next to the image, like so:
_____
| |text here
|_____|text here
The way i try to do this is to put the two TextViews in a LinearLayout, then place the ImageView and the LinearLayout, containing the text, in a TableLayout with one row and two columns.
When i do this i only se the ImageView. In fact, even when i comment out the adding of the ImageView to the table the text inside the LinearLayout wont show up at all.
CODE:.....................

If I have 2 LinearLayouts split %50/%50 everything is fine. Weights are 1 and 1. As soon as I add a TextView inside the top LinearLayout, it stretches that layout. I use "wrap_content" as the documentation says I should when it comes to weights. As you can see the red and green should be split evenly and text on grey background should be inside red box.
Here is the code:..............
Now if I switch to "fill parent" as follows it actually works but it creates another problem. Here is the code (so far so good):
So looking at above we were forced to use "fill_parent" and we would think like we fixed the problem but here is the problem if we are using "fill_parent" (I took out the textview just to show the problem, textview doesnt make the problem go away anyways):
As you can see I assign the weights 3 (top red) and 2 (bottom green) but what actually happens is they get flipped: The red becomes 2 and bottom becomes 3. Just measure the pixels too see.
Here are the results of the 3 codes: http://imgur.com/iVt8g.jpg

So I've been extremely frustrated by this for a long time now.I've posted before, but can't seem to find a good solution. My goal is to have something pretty much exactly like the installed application details page in the Android Market.I need a list of items displayed along with other content above the list, and would like the content above to scroll up along with the list (exactly like the application details does for the "My Review" and other descriptive info).Due to responses to my previous posts, I came to believe that it really wasn't possible to do this with a ListView.So rather than using a ListView, I refactored my code to use a simple LinearLayout and add individual View items to the list, thinking I could just set each View as clickable and add an OnClickListener to each View in the LinearLayout.That's not working at all though, and now I'm getting even more frustrated.If someone can help me get the OnClickListener working, then I think it'll work, but I do need a separator for the LinearLayout.How do I add a separator like the one used for ListView to my LinearLayout?

I have a LinearLayout inside a ScrollView that has android:layout_height="fill_parent", but it doesn't expand to the full height of the ScrollView. My layout looks something like:
CODE:........
I can see that the LinearLayout doesn't expand the full height of the ScrollView because in Eclipse in Android Layout Editor, if I select the ScrollView (in the Outline panel) it is highlighted with a red border that fills the screen to the bottom but when I select the LinearLayout its highlight doesn't expand to the bottom of the screen. How can I get it to do so?
The effect I'm trying to achieve is to have some text and a button below it (inside the LinearLayout in level 4 there's just a button). The text can be big enough to need a scrollbar, in which case I want the user to have to scroll down in order to see the button. In case the text is not big enough for a scroll bar, I want the LinearLayout containing the button to stick to the bottom of the screen.
At first I thought I shouldn't post the full XML because it's usually a turn-down to see a huge chunk of code in a question. However, it seems it might be necessary, so here's the full layout.
CODE:........
At the moment I have resorted to android:layout_gravity="bottom" on the problematic LinearLayout, which makes the button stick to the bottom of the screen no matter what. But that also makes the text stick to the bottom of the screen, which is not exactly what I was after.
Update: scratch that, android:layout_gravity="bottom" makes the ScrollView unable to, well, scroll.

I try to create my custom view inside a linearlayout. For example
<View android:id="@+id/ViewPaint" class="com.example.android.helloactivity.HelloActivity$DrawingView"/>
In the java source I created a DrawingView class which extends View. Unfortunatly it does not get instantiated. I tried to overwrite the ondraw() but without success. Code...

When I tried to create a ViewFlipper inside a class which extends LinearLayout, its throwing an exception
"java.lang.RuntimeException: Can't create handler inside thread that has not called Looper.prepare()".
I am creating the ViewFlipper using,
ViewFlipper flipper = new ViewFlipper(ctContext);
But when I create the ViewFlipper in a class which extends Activity, its working normally. What may the reason?

I 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 have a RelativeLayout that has two LinearLayouts in it. One is a bunch of TextViews and EditTexts that make up a form and the other is a ButtonBar that submits the form.
anyways, everything looks great in portrait, but when i switch to landscape mode the bottom TextView/EditText element is being hidden by the buttonbar.
screenshot to show the problem. as you can see some of the "email" textview and all of the email edit text are being hidden by button bar.

I've been a couple of days trying to solve this thing but I can'f figure it out.The problem is, simple activity, with simple layout, ScrollView -> LinearLayout -> and a lot of buttons inside the layout (within the scroll content). Everything works just fine but one tricky thing. When I click a button let's say at the top of the scroll content and inmediatelly I scroll down to the bottom of the content and I click other button there, nothing happens until I click a second time and all come to normal again.This can be reproduced anytime and it's code independent (i've tried more than 20 scenarios). I've not much experience in android yet but looks like the scroll listener stops the onclick listener or something like that.

I have just recently released my free app into the market and was wondering when is a good time to start placing ads in the app? Should I put it straight from the beginning?
I'm thinking maybe when the downloads gets to 5000 but these are numbers I'm pulling out of thin air so I would love for some of you guys to share your experience with placing ads in your app.
When did you place ads in your app? What kind of revenue was/is it making? And any tips for someone that has no idea where to start?

I've been hunting for a solution for days and can't find an answer. I've got an application where I need to place multiple calls in a row. I can invoke the dialer just fine and it starts calling the number. The problem is that after the call is over the call log comes up. I don't want the call log to come up. I want the dialer to return to my application after the call is over. How can I do this?

Does anyone know of any application that allows placing a shortcut on the home screen to a sequence of actions? That one shortcut would, for instance:
Set WiFi Off
Set the Car Mode app on
Set the Disable Car Screen app on
Toggle from 3G to 2G
or another macro shortcut could:
Turn the LockRinger app off
Switch to Silent mode
Turn WiFi on
I've been searching the app market but, so far, I haven't discovered anything offering that sort of handy functionality.

I want to populate my UI with dynamic buttons at runtime. I am trying to invoke a feed from the net and based on the results (which are URLs pointing to image resources), i need to create buttons on the layout with their background set as images retrieved from URLs. I have an array of buttons which get instantiated based on the number of results returned. I was wondering whats the best way to do it - as writing them on the main.xml is not feasible.

I think that there is possible bug in TableLayout SDK 1.0 rc2 when constructing table from code. It seams that the weight or height attribute is not respected when rendering the layout.
The XML view creates a table with row at the top and row at the bottom of the screen which is what supposed to happen, so I created this same table via code but the results are not what were expected. Maybe I am missing something but it seams OK, all LayoutParams are this same.
Sample Code ...
If anyone else can confirm this I will post this as a bug.

I have an issue with switching between two calls.
You know the screen that shows one call on hold and the other call as active? Say I click on the call that's holding because the first call hung up. My problem is that the first call still shows as holding.
If I simply end the first call, the phone will end ALL calls, and I think this is bad design: the call you're on should be disconnected and the call waiting should become active by default, if you hang up on the first call.
How do I switch to the call holding and get rid of the other call (so, I come out of the call waiting screen back to a regular, "in session" screen") that's no longer in session (other end has hung up)? I

So I've been rooted for about 2 weeks now on my new incredible and I have not had any problems so this is just a curiosity question. There is a zip on the base of my SD card named update.zip. Now i think I narrowed it down to the flash clockwork recovery in Rom manager and I was wondering if this file should be there at all times or is i the latest clockwork that keeps getting placed when I activate that flash that doesn't need to be there?
