I just moved to ICS, and I'm doing some modding in it.
There's one thing I don't like and that is the spacing/padding on the left and right side in some (most) menus.
how to remove this?
Let me illustrate with a mockup:
The left is how it is, and the right is how I'd like it.
It is ofcourse also very noticeable in the Settings menu:

As you can see in the link below there is an extra padding (around 2mm) below the EditText field. I can't seem to remove this padding in anyway. This occurs with other widgets as well (like Buttons). It looks like Android is default adding this extra padding to all elements.

So I am using the techniques in this thread to use a custom background for my titlebar. Unfortunately the framework places my layout inside a FrameLayout (title_container) which has padding as seen below.
Is there anyway to remove the Grey borders? The frame layout is defined in com.android.internal.R.id.title_container, so accessing the frame by ID would be fragile.

Jelly Bean takes too much room in spacing. I'd like the top 2 widgets to be closer, allowing more folders icons on desktop. Is this possible without reverting to a new Launcher?

View 9 Replies View RelatedAt the moment I'm using the following layout.
http://paste.pocoo.org/show/101642/
Module one and two get added in code. Now I'd like to have a 10px spacing between the two modules. I have tried to set "layout_topMargin" to the parent LinearLayout but it doesn't work. In addition I have tried to set this parameter to the LinearLayout modules. But well it doesn't work. It always looks like this:

Do I really have to put a dummy (spacer) view between the two LinearLayouts or is there another possibility?
I have a Relative Layout.
Which has 2 buttons, side by side and it is right-aligned.
So this is my layout xml file. My question is there are no spacing between the right-most button and the right border of the RelativeLayout and between the 2 buttons. How can I add that? I play with android:paddingRight, but nothing helps. code...
I've built a widget that uses a LinearLayout and I've put two TextViews in the layout.

As you can see I tried putting padding 0 and verticalSpacing 0 but I still get a space between them.
Is there an easy way to add padding between the checkbox in a CheckBox control, and the associated text?
I cannot just add leading spaces, because my label is multi-line.
As-is, the text is way too close to the checkbox:
I'd like to add extra spacing on the sides and between tabs on the tab widget, but padding and margins dont seem to make any difference. I also played with setting the divider, tab strip left and right drawables, which didn't seem to make any difference either.
Trying to make the tabs look like this:
I have a context menu on a TextView representing a user name in my app. When the context menu appears I want to have certain options such as "View Statistics" etc. The context menu is appearing fine and everything is working great except it's adding "Input method" to the context menu and I do not want it there. It's irrelevant to what the context menu is there for and there is not text entry. How can I remove this item from the context menu? I've tried removing item 0 in the context menu and adding android:editable="false" to the XML file to no avail.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am very impressed with Swype and just amazed that it is able to correctly guess what I am trying to type most of the time. But I have a question. What is the correct way to add a period? It seems that when i first started using it, if I used a period it would automatically add a space and capitalize the next word. But it doesn't do that now. I get no space or capitalization and have to add the space manually.

View 3 Replies View Relatedi have been reading a heap of old posts trying to get up to speed on Android so if a few of my posts seem vague, please excuse them as android is still very new to me. Love the site and so far I have found a heap of good info.
I have done a search on this site and a few others in the hope of finding out a problem I have with SWYPE on my DHD.
I have auto spacing selected but when typing a sms using SWYPE, no spaces are automatically placed in between words. However when I use the SWYPE keyboard for entering in a calendar entry, spaces are automatically defaulted between words.
The version i am using is 2.4.44.10912 (has English language) and there appears to be a red circle on the space button for the message SWYPE keyboard but the red circle is not present on keyboard when I am entering in a calendar item.
I have uninstalled SWYPE and re-installed, but the issue is still present. Any ideas?
I have noticed this problem for quite some time with android. When I am writing a message for example : The price is $350 android automatically makes the sentence format as: The price is$ 350.... then I have to go back and space the $ sign away from the previous letter and then delete the space between the $ sign and the following number. How can I fix this as this is a HUGE annoyance?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've used an Alert Dialog builder to display 6 items my user can choose from. Unfortunately for just a few pixels missing, it displays only half of the last item and adds a scrollbar. Beside, centering of the dialog is awkward, there is a 20px padding at the top but only 2px at the bottom. I was wondering if there is a way to reduce font size or vertical spacing in the Alert Dialog builder programatically.
