Android can not remove button

I am trying to remove a button when the button itself is tapped, I am trying the following:
View.OnClickListener getOnClickDoSomething(final Button button) {
return new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
tagsView.removeView(button);
}
};
}
This code is working, but when I add the following line of code:
editText.setText(button.getText());
The code stops working and the button does not get removed. I add it like so:
View.OnClickListener getOnClickDoSomething(final Button button) {
return new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
editText.setText(button.getText());
tagsView.removeView(button);
}
};
}
What is the problem here?

use this in your OnClick method
button.setVisibility(view.GONE);
Your code will look like this
View.OnClickListener getOnClickDoSomething(final Button button) {
return new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
editText.setText(button.getText());
button.setVisibility(view.GONE);
}
};
}
Or Try this
Button mybtn = (Button)findViewById(R.id.mybtn_id);
mybtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
mybtn.setVisibility(view.GONE); // or (view.INVISIBLE)
}
});

Depending on what you're trying to achieve, something like deejay proposed would work just fine. If want the button to hide, call button.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE). However, if you are trying to dismiss it completely from the view hierarchy, call button.setVisibility(View.GONE).

just set button visibility to false

Obviously button.setVisibility(View.GONE) comes to mind but if it doesn't work you should look one level above for the source of the bug. Maybe you don't set OnClickListener you created to the button and hence nothing happens?

Change button text over other button android

I create an application in android studio and I need advice, I got one button, and I need to change the text on the second button clicks through to the first. I have a code that changes only TextView but not the text on the button.
NewText = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);
ChangeText = (Button)findViewById(R.id.ch_txt_ger);
final TextView finalNewText1 = NewText;
ChangeText.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
//Set Text on button click via this function.
finalNewText1.setText(" (Frohe Weihnachten) ");
}
});

Same concept as you did for textView
Button SecondButton,ChangeText; // declaring the buttons
SecondButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button2);
ChangeText = (Button)findViewById(R.id.ch_txt_ger);
ChangeText.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
//This changes the text on the second button
SecondButton.setText("New Text Here");
}
});
SecondButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
//Do anything
}
});

Button ChangeText;
ChangeText = (Button)findViewById(R.id.ch_txt_ger);
ChangeText.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
//part to change the button text
Button tmp_button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.ch_txt_ger);
tmp_button.setText("Frohe Weihnachten");
//part to change the textview text
TextView NewText
NewText = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);
finalNewText1.setText(" (Frohe Weihnachten) ");
}
});
After Clicking outlooking
Here you go: You can define a temporary button variable and make the change on it if setting the same button on its own clicking is causing problems.
And if the text will not change according to user, and if you know it like On/OFF, Red/Green you can also code it with a selector file which would make the java code look more clean.
A tiny advise: Defining the TextViews and Buttons that will get affected should all be written in the same function and close to the place where they are being changed for you to keep track of where you coded them.

I would add one thing, in case if you want to save the new button name when you close and reopen your app, you could use Shared Preferences: https://developer.android.com/training/basics/data-storage/shared-preferences.html

Android : Focus on TextView?

I have a TextView in ScrollView I need that when set text on TextView , going foucus on the TextView .I need that doing this work in OnClickListener a Button .

You need to set focusable as true.
txtview.setFocusableInTouchMode(true);
and then in onClick of button, request focus as:
txtview.requestFocus();

button.setOnClickListener(new View.onClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v) {
textbox.requestFocus();
}
});
i really hope i understood the question :)

Why don't you just setText and then requestFocus like:
final TextView textView = findViewById(R.id.textView);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
textView.setText("Some text");
textView.requestFocus();
}
});
Note:
TextView will have to be focusable. (setFocusable(true), setFocusableInTouchMode(true)).
Or in the xml:
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"

Button Value to EditText Logic - Android

What is the logic of adding text to an edittext when button is pressed. Like in simple calculator, when u press a button the numbers will be shown to the edittext. What do you call that logic? I need a developers explanation.

button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
edittext.setText("text");
}
});

The logic is get the text from button and set it to the edittext,in aappending mode

Just use append() of the EditText. The Argument will be appended at the end of the Editable.
button1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
editText1.append("your string to add at the end.");
}
});

Facing problem in implementing OnClickListener on android

I want to implement a click listener for a button on my main view. My code is something like below
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedValues) {
...
// Capture our button from layout
Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnFinish);
// Register the onClick listener with the implementation above
button.setOnClickListener(mFinishListener);
...
}
private OnClickListener mFinishListener = new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// do something when the button is clicked
}
};
But shows me error as follows
The method setOnClickListener(View.OnClickListener) in the type View is not applicable for the arguments (DialogInterface.OnClickListener) MobileTrackerActivity.java /MobileTracker/src/com/example/mobiletracker line 37 Java Problem
I have no idea what to do. Please help.

You are not using the correct interface to instantiate the mFinishLinstener variable...
It is possible you have an import specifying DialogInterface and that is confusing the view.
Try specifying View.OnClickListener explicitly.
private View.OnClickListener mFinishListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// do something when the button is clicked
}
};

As per my opinion Best way to implement On click event for the Button.
Instead of applying an OnClickListener to the button in your activity, you can assign a method to your button in the XML layout, using the android:onClick attribute. For example:
<Button
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/self_destruct"
android:onClick="selfDestruct" />
Now, when a user clicks the button, the Android system calls the activity's selfDestruct(View) method. In order for this to work, the method must be public and accept a View as its only parameter. For example:
public void selfDestruct(View view) {
// Kabloey
}
Note: The above code is given in Android SDK - Button.

try this code :::
final Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnFinish);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// Perform action on click
}
});

Simply try this one as:
button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// do something when the button is clicked
}
};

you can also use like below code..
Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnFinish);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(View v)
{
//Write Your code here
}
});

You can also declare the onclick in the xml.
<Button android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:onclick="buttonClick" />
And in your code you would define the function as:
public void buttonClick(View view)
{
// handle click
}
