Android :: Set A Minimum Width - In Characters - For A TextView?
Jul 6, 2010
I have a TextView in a RelativeLayout which contains an integer number. The number will range between 1 and 99 - can anyone tell me how to size the TextView so that its width is always the width of the string "99" even if it only contains "1"?
I need this because the positions of the components to the right of this TextView depend on its width, so all are position depending on how many digits the TextView contains.
I don't mind if this is done in XML or code - I just want to avoid having to set the width of a TextView in pixels!

I think the answer to this question is probably so simple, but I'm struggling....
I have a TableLayout with multiple columns. I want the last column to be of a fixed width, but I want to define that width to just be able to hold the widest possible string from my program. i.e. it is always wide enough to contain "THIS STRING" without wrapping, or wasting any space.
I would like to do this as I have these TableLayouts within a ListView, so it looks very poor when the last column is of variable widths.
I have tried obtaining the string width, even going so far as to put it into a TextView, call getTextSize() then setWidth() on all appropriate TextViews. The problem I hit there is that gettextSize() returns pixels, but setWidth uses ScaledPixels.
I'm sure there is a really simple solution. Can anyone help?

How can I determine the number of visible characters that a TextView can display. For example if I change the orientation this number may change. If I change the resolution then also the number of visible characters changes.

I noticed that it is not possible to specify a percentage value for maxWidth.
What is the best way around this?
For example, in the layout xml, is it possible to get a handle on the screen width and apply some kind of arithmetic to it (e.g. maxWidth="(60 * @screenWidth) / 100px")
Also would this approach mean the maxWidth would be automatically recalculated on orientation changes?

I have a Gallery with a set of images that was downloaded at run time.I followed the example here:http://www.anddev.org/a_androidwidgetgallery_-_example-t332.html but instead of using i.setImageResource(this.myImageIds[position]);I used i.setImageBitmap(bitmaps.get(position));This doesn't fill the entire width of the screen, only as much as the width specified here:i.setLayoutParams(new Gallery.LayoutParams(150, 150)); When I increase this number, the item scales with it instead of showing more images per the example. I've even tried to scale the images before adding them to the set. Not sure what I'm missing, or where other examples of this might be. Any help would be great.

What's the minimum memory needed to run a RAR decompression algorithm? I want to port a RAR decompression algorithm to mobiles (iPhone, Android and BlackBerry) and want to know if there's a bare minimum of memory needed before starting. I've heard that RAR decompression requires much more memory than ZIP decompression.

We're seeking advice for our application in the Android Market, in relation to nominating a suitable minimum SDK version for the APK files published through the market. We understand that at this juncture there's no facility to provide associate multiple APK files (supporting different minimum SDK versions) within a single listing in the Market.
We have updated our existing application with new Android 1.6 API features and are keen to release it to the Market. However we're concerned about the general availability (and uptake) of version 1.6 firmware and seeking to ensure that we don't inadvertently release an updated APK should there be limited release of this firmware.
Can anyone provide an indication as to how widely the 1.6 firmware has been released? To that end, what are generally acceptable practices for supporting multiple SDK versions from within the market?

Is there a way i can set a minimum zoon level for my MapView?. I don't know if you've realized the map looks really ugly when zoom level is one. You see the whole world map replicated. I would like to avoid that zoom level no matter if user is zooming in through gestures or zoom controls. I've looked at different alternatives, but none seems to work. Does somebody have a good idea about this?

I'm looking for a way to implement a minimum value in my SeekBar and also have the option to increment decimal numbers. For example, currently my SeekBar's minimum is set to 0, but I need it to start at the value 0.2. Also, I would like to have the functionality to be able to have the user select a number from 0.2 to 10.0 at a .1 precision so they can choose the numbers 5.6 or 7.1.
Here are the style attributes for my SeekBar:

I am trying to make an app for the Android that does RMD calculations. The program, however, keeps giving 0.0.
I think that my problem lies in this code:
CODE:......................
I tried using .equals(), but it complained that I was trying to dereference the long value. Also, I am aware that java.util.Date is deprecated, but I don't want to try the other classes. From my first Android app, I figured out the "==" does not work, but I am not sure what to do here.
I have verified that the input for a balance and the birthdate values were accepted, so that is how I limited it to this particular class.

I was wondering if there was any way (I'm somewhat a newbie at Java) to get the MapBounds of a Google MapView on Android.
Just to clarify, here's what I'd like to do.
Calculate the maximum and minimum long and lat whenever the map is moved, or zoomed and display those values in a Toast.
Is there any possible way to do this - or am I in over my head?

What do you usually use for your minimum sdk when compiling? Should I just compile it to 2.x since I think 1.x is already obsolete?

I have a ListView that contains an Image on the left of two vertically-oriented TextViews using a RelativeLayout. When both TextViews have text it looks fine. Sometimes the TextView on the bottom won't have any text, and the problem is that the entire layout is several pixels above where it should be because it still reserves that space for text when there isn't any making the entire list have annoying blank gaps. I remember seeing an example of where someone made the layout not reserve the space, but I can't remember how he did it.

I've done some research, but haven't found what I'm looking for. To cope with the memory limitation of my phone, I move some apps to Rom with titanium explorer. Does the rom use the rom partition free space for something? Writting cache, and so on? I have a Xperia J and a X10 mini pro, and they both have around 20 Mb of free space on the ROM. Is it ok? Is there a "safe threshold"?

Intent chooseClothesIntent = new Intent(this, ChooseClothesActivity.class);
chooseClothesIntent.putExtra("menuId", menuId);
startActivityForResult(chooseClothesIntent, 1);
}[/HIGH]
[Code]...
then in my new activity:
[HIGH]@Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
try {
ClothingItem ci = mListContents.get(position);
String imagePath = ci.getImagePath();
[Code]...
