List Item Is Not Highlighted Upon Selection
Oct 6, 2013
I am trying to create a Dialog with list items in it with List Adapter.Dialog is working fine.
ISSUE:-
--> Selected list row is NOT Highlighted for whichever list item "TextView.setBackgroundColor" is used
--> Selected list row is Highlighted for whichever list item "TextView.setBackgroundColor" is NOT used
I want all the list items highlighted upon Selection irrespective of background color (i am setting background color as BLACK)
MainActivity.java
[HIGH]
package com.example.testpro;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
[code]...

Trying to implement simple dictionary. I want to make it so while the user is typing in the EditText box the list to scroll automatically to the best match. I don't want it to filter the list. For example if the user types "s" in the EditText I want the first word that s/he sees under the EditText box to be the first word in the dictionary that starts with "s." But the user should still be able to slide up and down and to be able to see the entire list of words. It is basically like a go to functionality. I used ArrayList to store my list of words. The data is in res/raw/data.xml file. Here is my onCreate method
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
wordListView = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.wordList);
myEditText = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.myEditText);
words = new ArrayList<Word>();
arrAdap = new ArrayAdapter<Word>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, words);
wordListView.setAdapter(arrAdap); try {
InputStream inSource = getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.data);
DocumentBuilder builder = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc = builder.parse(inSource, null);
NodeList wordsList = doc.getElementsByTagName("eng-bg");
int length = wordsList.getLength();
for(int i = 0; i<length; i++) {
Element entry = (Element)wordsList.item(i);
Element eng = (Element)entry.getElementsByTagName("english").item(0);
Element bul = (Element)entry.getElementsByTagName("bulgarian").item(0);
Element id = (Element)entry.getElementsByTagName("ID").item(0);
String english = eng.getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
String bulgarian = bul.getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
int wordId = Integer.parseInt(id.getFirstChild().getNodeValue());
Word word = new Word(bulgarian, english, wordId);
addNewWord(word);
} catch (ParserConfigurationException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (SAXException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}wordListView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener(){
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int pos, long id) {
selectedWord = words.get(pos);
showDialog(TRANS_DIALOG);
myEditText.setText(selectedWord.getEnglish());
myEditText.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher(){
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
@Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
@Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count,
int after) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub

I know that when a row is selected in list view, the function on List Item Click() is called. I want to know which function is called when a row in List View is highlighted(not selected).

I don't know exactly how to explain this problem, but I'll try. I have a ListView with several items. Each item has inside a TextView and two ImageView. I want the ImageView change when I click on them, and I want to open a context menu when I press for a long time into the ListView item.For the ImageView, everything works properly. For the whole item, I can show the context menu after a long press, but my problem is that the ImageView changes as well when I am pressing the TextView, for example.I hope you understand my problem. I think that all the children of a view are affected by an event in the parent, but I am not sure.

I'm developing application that shows thumbnails of images in gridview widget. I load HTML with image names, and set ImageAdapter. That image adapter loads single image (from internet or SD card) in AsyncTask with selected image position. After I initially download HTML with image names, and parse them to array, I set selection of GridView to index of last image. But, what happens is this : first image that gets downloaded is image with index zero. That gives me a lot of trouble because I'm using convert views and AsyncTasks, so sometimes I end up with wrong picture at first column in last row (sometimes picture with index 0 gets in there), depending on which AsyncTask gets executed first. Even stranger, I end up with around 10 calls to getView for image with index 0.Does anyone have idea how to switch GridViews position to last image, and not have image with index 0 loading?

I have an activity with a ListView check list and a spinner that controls the sort order of the items in that check list. One of the sort options is to move the checked items to the beginning of the list. I would like to allow users to check some items in the list, select the 'sort by checks' option, check some more items in the list, and select the 'sort by checks' option again. However, I don't see how to detect that second selection of the spinner's 'sort by checks' option.
I've tried using setOnItemSelectedListener, but it doesn't call the onItemSelected handler unless a different item is selected. And I've tried using setOnItemClickListener, but it seems that listener cannot be used with a spinner according to following run-time exception from logcat:
- - - D/AndroidRuntime( 987): Shutting down VM W/dalvikvm( 987): threadid=3: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4000fe70) E/AndroidRuntime( 987): Uncaught handler: thread main exiting due to uncaught exception E/AndroidRuntime( 987): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.test.spinner/com.test.spinner.check_list}: java.lang.RuntimeException: setOnItemClickListener cannot be used with a spinner. E/AndroidRuntime( 987): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java: 2268) - - -
Any tips on how to detect the selection of an already selected item in a spinner?

With spinner, I am able to create a dropdownlist menu. (As seen from the code below)
Quote:
// Set up the action bar.
final ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar();
actionBar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
actionBar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_M ODE_LIST);
[Code]...
However, how should i make it draw a XML upon selection of the item in the dropdownlist's array? Or should i just change everything to popup menu and onclicklistner instead of spinner.

I am on my first Android application and I am on a timeline so details and examples will be useful since my knowledge is still minimal. I want my first screen to present the user with a list of activities to choose from. In my situation it is a recipe app where the user first chooses the type of food, such as, Beef, Chicken, or Pork. I want the application to launch an activity depending on the list item that the user clicked on. I am not sure if I should use a list view, a text view, a scroll view, a list activity, an activity group...

I'm trying to create a multiple selection list where the selection is represented graphically rather than with checkboxes.My list has checkboxes, but I want them to serve a different purpose. I'm using a cursor to hold my data and created a custom view binder for the SimpleCursorAdapter. I did this for the checkboxes and general flexibility.So far I haven't even been able to show one line as being selected. I've enabled multiple selection on the list and denied the children of the list item focusability. I've tried manually changing background color with the position fed in through the list item click listener. But the wrong items get changed and they don't even change to the right color. I've enabled touch focusability with no improvement either.Ideally, I'd like the trackball highlight focus bar to appear in multiple places. But I don't think this is possible unless you use the drawable directly. But I don't know how to find or apply it. My next idea was to have a slim view bar that changes color. But I had the same problem with the wrong item being selected so I never finished trying to guess the index position to see if this would work. My most recent idea is to completely swap out the view for another one if it's selected. But I have no idea how to do this either. I'm thinking of using an array list to store the _id s of the items that need a different view to get around the wierd selection problem. I'm also thinking of passing in the ID field as my from and the selection view as the to for my adapter. Then I'd intercept it with my binder and change the view accordingly. But once again, I'm not sure how to do this successfuly.

I use tabs in my Android application and one of my tabs contains a listview. I'm noticing some weird behavior when I override isEnabled in my list's adapter and then try to use the D-pad to move up and down through the list and to my tabs.If the 0th item of the list is enabled, then everything works as expected - I can move down through the list, and then up again and once I reach the top of the list, pressing up moves focus to my tab.However, if the 0th item is DISABLED (isEnabled in my adapter returns false), then when I press up while position 1 is focused, the focus gets stuck. It doesn't move up to the tab as I would have expected and instead stays on position 1 of the list.

By Default in the Listview,focus will come on the list item.Instead of that, can I get only the border to the list item?I can achieve this by using a transparent image as a list selector.Is there any other simplest way to achieve this requirement?

I have a dialog window that covers 1/3 of the entire screen height and is displayed on top of my activity. The dialog holds two AutoCompleteTextView fields.
The problem I'm facing is that when the user starts typing something into the AutoCompleteTextView, the list with all suggestions only shows up to the bottom end of the dialog, but doesn't go beyond that even the list is longer. It looks like it's cut off. (screenshot left)
Only after I long-press an item from the suggestion list, the list will be shown in full length. (screenshot right)
Screenhot is at: http://img704.imageshack.us/i/dialogdropdown.png/
How to fix this behaviour so that the list shows in full length right from the beginning, when the user starts typing something?
Code-wise there's nothing special, all I do is:
CODE:..........
One workaround idea is to somehow dispatch a motion event to simulate a touch (but then not selecting though) one of the list items. Any concrete idea in code for a solution.

when I click on one item in the ListView that item's background changes to light gray, but when I continue to scroll through the list every 4th item has the background changed to light gray even though those other items have not been clicked. How do I make only the item I clicked be effected by the click?
ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.resultsList);
lv.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(this, R.layout.resultitem, (String[])labelList.toArray(new String[labelList.size()])));
lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View view, int position, long id) {
TextView tv = (TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.result);
tv.setBackgroundColor(Color.LTGRAY);
tv.setTextColor(Color.BLACK);

If a data row of my list contains a TextView and a Button, is it possible to format those components individually when the List row is selected? Like change drawable of a Button, font color of the TextView apart from the usual highlighting the background of the List row?
How can this be achieved?

Edit: Okay, I found a solution. Don't know that it's the proper solution, but it does work correctly. Added to the code below. I'm trying to allow a user to select a number of directories from a checklist, and return them upon clicking a "Submit" button. Here's a snippet of my code. It populates the List View with all the directories on /sd card/, and for the initial selection (of however many I pick) when I submit, the log shows the correct choices returned. However, if I un check an item, and click "Submit" again, it still shows as if all are selected. Do I need to write a handler to un check an item? I thought that was taken care of by the choice Mode selection?

I thought I knew how to catch list selection events in Android and then I regained consciousness. In my situation, I have a ListView that I populate with a custom view, all of the same class (let's call it the NewsChannel() class). NewsChannel consists of a LinearLayout of ImageViews and TextViews. When the list is displayed, the user may select a NewsChannel item in the list; I want to find out which list item was selected. Also, I registered an onClickListener to one of the TextViews and that works fine: when the text is clicked on, an activity is launched which is looking for the position of the NewsChannel item in the list. So, here's what my code looks like:
1. Registering the onClickListener in the ListActivity:
public class NewsListActivity extends ListActivity {...
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) { super.onCreate(icicle);
setContentView(R.layout.news_list_format); ListView lv = getListView();
lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener()
{ public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
// When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text item_index = position;
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "item clicked = " + position,
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); }}); ...
2. The layout for the ListView associated with NewsListActivity:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:background="@drawable/wpaper_tile" >
<ListView android:id="@id/android:list" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:dividerHeight="15dp" android:divider="@android:color/transparent"
android:cacheColorHint="@android:color/transparent" android:scrollbars="none" />
<FrameLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="55dp"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="#88000000"/>
<ImageView android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" android:src="@drawable/phonetop_bg" /> </RelativeLayout>
3. The NewsChannel layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <RelativeLayout xmlns:
android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<include layout="@layout/news_heading_format"
android:id="@+id/news_heading_header"/>
<ImageView android:id="@+id/news_channel_image" android:layout_width="88dp"
android:layout_height="66dp" android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_below="@id/news_heading_header" android:padding="10dp" />
<TextView android:id="@+id/news_channel_text" android:lines="4"
android:inputType="textMultiLine" android:layout_toRightOf="@id/news_channel_image"
android:layout_below="@id/news_heading_header" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/> </RelativeLayout>
When I run the app, the ItemClickListener is never called. However, if NewsChannel were of a simpler type, say, a single ImageView or TextView embedded in the layout, the callback does get called. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? My whole goal is simply to let the activity launched by NewsChannel (not shown) to find out which instance of NewsChannel it was launched from.

How do I do this per selected list item.I tried adding this to android:background
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_focused="true"
android:state_pressed="false"
android:drawable="@color/android_green" />
<item android:state_focused="true"
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="@color/black_alpha" />
<item android:state_focused="false"
android:state_pressed="true"
android:drawable="@color/black_alpha" />
<item android:drawable="@color/white_alpha" />
</selector> but it does not work, it changes the entire list.

I am wondering is there any way to create something similar to spinner but which allows multiple selection. I guess we can select multiple entries from ListView but I don't have much space to show all the entires and also I need to show three different categories on the same Activity which you can select from.
Here is what I want to do:
Category 1:
Category 2:
Category 3:
