I'm trying to create a custom calendar in Android. I want to create somethning like this
custom calendar.
As you can see the design is slightly different than normal date picker for android. I tried to change it in xml, but like I found out, it isnt possible. So my question is - how to do that? Should I create custom class which extend from DatePicker? I was trying to find the solution by myself, but I found only answers to change color etc, but I want to also change design and font.
I will be very grateful for your help
Hi I am a beginner in android and I want to know how to customize buttons,check box etc., I searched in web but found many ways and got confused...
Can you please tell me what are the ways to customize android widgets, can we do that using css, like we do for the HTML?
Thanks in advance...
There are a few ways. You can use 9patch to edit the files inside the SDK(which will typically be C:\Android\SDK\platforms\android-19\data\res\drawable-hdpi) - Android-19 is the api level, and then set them in your xml layout under the widget you want with
android:background="#drawable/your file"
Another way is to create a selector(Recommended because it can handle stuff like when clicked and more), shape(Simple creation with corners and stuff), layer list(Advanced selector) or solid(just a color) in /drawable and then set them in your xml under the widget you want with
android:background="#drawable/your file"
An example of the second solution can be found here android button selector
I have edited the spinner image by changing the color of it. Then used the draw9patch.bat tool to create it into a proper 9-patch file, and then renamed it to spinner_updated.9.png, then I placed it into my "res/drawable" folder. So I then checked out this link just to get an idea of implementing a custom spinner:
How to create android spinner without down triangle on the right side of the widget
I tried using lencinhaus & Aleadam ways but when I try to actually use it in my app I keep getting the error:
Failed to convert #android:drawable/spinner_updated into a drawable
Couldn't resolve resource #android:drawable/spinner_updated
What am I doing wrong? What would I do once I have the image I want to use for my spinner to actually get it displaying in the app?
If you are using your own drawable you need to use:
#drawable/spinner_updated
The #android: directs the app to look in Android's built-in resources not your own.
I'm looking for an advanced Android color picker dialog. The standard color picker from the API Demos and examples from this post aren't quite acceptable to me. I'd like it to look like this: this image. Are there any open source color pickers that look like that?
UPDATE: My primary goal is to make the Color Picker easy to use: it'd be great if the user only needs to click once to pick any color, and all possible colors are represented. The Color Pickers from the examples I've mentioned require two clicks to pick a color and are too complicated for the average user.
This one looks pretty close to what you want, and is FOSS:

how about this solution ?
look at the screenshot:

Have you tried Android Color Picker?
If you need to show the RGB-Code of the currently selected color, just modify the dialog by adding an TextView and adding an update to it in the ColorChangeListener (or whatever it's called)
Or take a look at the color-picker dialog of CyanogenMod
Here a link to the source: CyanogenMod color-picker on GitHub
I'm trying to make a list that looks exactly like Sound setting in 2.3.4 as in this screenshot:
The problem is that I tried using TableRow and ended up like this:
------------------------------------------
Vibration >
------------------------------------------
Only when not in Silent Mode
------------------------------------------
instead of one large row as in the screenshot. What did I do wrong?
These inbuilt icons are nice (such as the ">" icon) - couldn't find on Google Image so I guess these icons are "inbuilt" in the Android OS. Is there any document we can refer about this? I'd like to use system text colours/background colours and these icons but don't know how to implement in the code.
This is a PreferenceActivity.
This link is good example of android preference. Using preference you don't need to make table layout and using detail button icon. Using preference this icon comes automatically.
The examples from this link and this link may help you.
it is Listview but it is customizable you have to make xml file which display this tow Textview and icon(in your words).

This is not a inbuilt icons but this is just image that set customarily.
