Spinner Selection Change To Different Activity
Dec 24, 2011
So I am new to developing android apps and had a question. I have a spinner and based on the selection I was wondering the best way to call another class / layout.Here is my main class
Code:
public class BestBuyMobileActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
[code]....

I have a spinner selection box on my activity, but now I want to remove the spinner from the main view and make the selection available by an option from the menu button. How do I get the dialog the spinner shows if I click it without having the spinner? Currently I fill the spinner using a SimpleCursorAdapter like this:
Cursor c = db.fetchAllSets();
SimpleCursorAdapter adapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, c, new String[] { DatabaseAdapter.SET_KEY_NAME }, new int[] { android.R.id.text1 });
adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
mSetsSpinner.setAdapter(adapter);
So now I'm planning to remove the spinner from my activity, add a new button to the menu and in the onOptionsItemSelected(...) show a dialog with the list of available selection - just the way it is right now after clicking the spinner object.

I'm trying to use Spinner as a button with selection pop-up. Basically I want an icon and when user clicks it - the popup list is displayed and user can make a selection. The Spinner happily accepts icon image as drawable background. Unfortunately when I select a value the text overlays the background. Is it possible to set selection text color as a transparent? Or maybe there's a better way?

I am trying to get a Spinner to work in Android. It displays fine and I can select any one of the options in the list. But how do I transfer that to a string?I would have thought in the code below that 'selected' would hold the selected string, but I get an 'Illegal modifier for the local class YourItemSelectedListener; only abstract or final is permitted' error on the 'YourItemSelectedListener'.What am I doing wrong?

I have a Spinner whose items comes from an ArrayAdaper, and I want the Spinner to initially show that no item has been selected. When the user clicks on the Spinner it's DropDownView should display just those items available for selection.
I don't want to add an empty/blank item at the head of my list of items because that means that it shows as an avalaible selection in the DropDownView and looks pretty lame. And if a selection is made I want it to be a valid one.
I tried spinner#setSelection(-1); but that doesn't work. The first item remains selected.
I tried setting no Adapter initially (which provides the desired initial view) and had hoped to configure the appropriate adapter in the OnClickListener, but spinner#setOnClickListener throw a RuntimeException saying "You probably want to use #setOnItemClickListener instead". And trying to use #setOnItemClickListener throws a RuntimeException saying it is not valid for a Spinner.
Surely this is a common use case. How can I set the Spinner to initially show as empty?

I'm binding a data table into a Spinner. But I cannot set the default selection for the Spinner based on a specified identifier which comes from the id column of the table.
How can I do that?

As the title says, i have a Spinner with just a couple of options and a button. I didnt declared any Listener for the spinner, instead of that, what i want is use the button and perform different actions depending on the spinner selected option.
So, i declared a handler in the button option "android:onClick", but once there, i dont know how to access the option selected in the Spinner.

I've implemented a spinner with an OnItemSelectedListener event handler. When I initialize the spinner and when a user makes a selection the even handler gets called. What I need is to determine when a user makes a selection. Is there a way to determine in the OnItemSelectedListener whether the event was triggered because of data initialization, or because of a user selection? Am I going down the wrong path trying to do this with the OnItemSelectedListener? Is there a better way to to capture a user selection event on a spinner control?

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:

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.

This bug just spontaneously arose. Every time I select a new wallpaper it loops back to the gallery. The problem does not occur when I pick one of the Droid pre-loaded wallpapers. Not sure if this is a coincidence, but I just installed sweeter home beta 2.
Update. I removed the 2.1 gallyey app and it fixed the problem

I want to apply a non-native font to widgets in my app. This is working fine for TextViews and Buttons, which have a set Typeface method. The code below works just great for my button:
Java: Typeface face = Typeface.gratefullest(getAssets(), "fonts/ my_font.ttf"); play Button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.play_button); play Button.set Typeface(face);
But I just can't seem to figure out how to apply the font to a Spinner.

I'm creating a spinner in my layout xml files and setting an string array to this spinner.
If I change the textstyle of the spinner the text is not affected by the changes.
I read in the googlegroups that a spinner has no text and therefore the textstyle can not be changed and I have to change the style of the textview that is shown in the spinner. But how can I do that. Preferably in my xml file.

I have a spinner with items, populated via ArrayAdapter. I want to change font style for some (not for all) of spinner items, both for spinner's combobox and listbox. I guess that I need to subclass something, but I don't understand what. How can I do that?

I use this code to generate a spinner in my app:
code:.........
On my device (Motorola Milestone) and in the emulator this looks like the standard gray spinner widget.
On of my colleagues uses a Motorola Backflip and on his device the Spinner is black. Now its very hard to read the font in the spinner.
What do I have to do to use my own view for the spinner? I don't mind to have the gray spinner on all devices, but it should always look the same on all devices.

When views with different type have same id and screen orientation changes,
either java.lang.ClassCastException: android.view.AbsSavedState$1 or java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Wrong state class -- expecting View State will occur. (depends on the view's order)
Because View.dispatchRestoreInstanceState() checks id only.
You may wonder why anyone would make views with different type to have same id.
But it can happen when you use tab activity.
Imagine you have tab activity with two children activity.
Tab1 is ListActivity and Tab2 is ExpandableListActivity.
Both activity have id of "@android:id/list" but the type of view is different.
This means we cannot use ListActivity & ExpandableListActivit at the same in one tab activity.

I have a spinner 'aperture' set up with a list of numbers, and a spinner 'mode' with two options. When a button is pushed I need a calculation to run using various inputs, including the current selection from 'aperture' and a value derived from 'mode'. How do I call the value of a spinner so I can use it in a calculation?
Also, how do I use the spinner 'mode's selection to set this other value before implimenting it in the calculation? To be more specific, if the spinner is set to Small then the value I use in the calculation is 0.015, whereas if Large is selected I need to use 0.028
My other inputs are EditText views, so right now I am set up like this:
CODE:............
That is not the actual equation, it is just a test to make sure everything connects properly. How would I call the value of spinner 'aperture' and the Small/Large spinner 'mode'

I have a notification that starts my activity and passes a messages using the intent's putExtra() function. The message is then displayed to the user in the activity's onCreate function. When the application is restarted due to a orientation change, the message is shown again as it is still in the intent's bundled data.
How can I remove the extra data?
I tried the following:
Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
if (bundle.getBoolean("showMessage")) {
// ... show message that is in bundle.getString("message")
// remove message
bundle.remove("showMessage");
}
But the message will still be shown after the orientation changed, seems like the intent used is not the one I changed, but the original one. The only workaround I found is to save the showMessage additionally in onSaveInstanceState(). Is there another way? Or is this the way to go?

I have a spinner widget in my activity which lets users pick a list name.
Normally, the function of the spinner is to switch between lists but for a couple of instances, I swap out the selection change listener to perform a different function with the same list of options. Once the selection has been made, the old listener is restored and life goes on.
This is a bad and buggy arrangement. Instead, I would like to have a function that just takes a selection listener and some other parameters and shows a popup list that's populated by the same cursor (or and identical cursor) as the spinner, without using the spinner itself.
Is there any way I can do this?
