Android: Insert Bitmap in EditText

I would like to insert jpeg images in edittext attached as shown below.
Stackoverflow has recommended this post but the reference projects provided are no longer valid.
how to insert jpeg files in edittext android
Will there be any reference projects?

try this,
EditText text = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.text);
text.setCompoundDrawables(null,null,getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.check), null);
That's it.

You can use ImageSpan like this...
buildImageSpan(EditText et){
SpannableString ss = new SpannableString("anystring");
Drawable d = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
d.setBounds(0,0,d.getIntrinsicWidth(), d.getIntrinsicHeight());
ImageSpan span = new ImageSpan(d, "anystring", ImageSpan.ALIGN_BASELINE);
ss.setSpan(span, 0, anystring.length, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
et.setText(et.getText()+ss);
}

You can set compound drawable top bottom left right using
edittext.setCompoundDrawables(left,top,right, bottom);

drawableEnd textview property not working in mobile android

Hello friends I want to my drawable image to end of my textview so i set my layout as below
xml file
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text_four"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:visibility="visible" />
when i run above code it shoe me output like below
I want my drawable after then so any idea how can I solve this problem ? Your all suggestion are appreciable
EDIT
SpannableString ss = new SpannableString("Go ahead and get to the area you want then");
Drawable d = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.alogo_small);
d.setBounds(0, 0, d.getIntrinsicWidth(), d.getIntrinsicHeight());
ImageSpan span = new ImageSpan(d, ImageSpan.ALIGN_BASELINE);
ss.setSpan(span, ss.length(), ss.length(), Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
mTextViewEmailTwo.setText(ss);
when I run above code it give me output like below

Try to use Html.ImageGetter:
Html.ImageGetter getter = new Html.ImageGetter(){
public Drawable getDrawable(String source){ // source is the resource name
Drawable d = null;
Integer id = new Integer(0);
id = getApplicationContext().getResources().getIdentifier(source, "drawable",getPackageName());
d = getApplicationContext().getResources().getDrawable(id);
if (d != null)
d.setBounds(0, 0, d.getIntrinsicWidth(), d.getIntrinsicHeight());
return d;
}
};
String imgString = "Go ahead and get to the area you want then " + " <img src=\"alogo_small\"/>";
mTextViewEmailTwo.setText(Html.fromHtml(imgString, getter, null));

How to modify SpannableString to string below icon?

Currently I have a spannableString like this, the icon is at the left of the title string. The problem is, is there any way to make the icon above the string , while the icon is align center?
Sample like this:
[] <==== This is the icon
TitleTest <=== This is the title
ABCD
Thanks
Here is my code attempted:
Drawable image = context.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
image.setBounds(0, 0, image.getIntrinsicWidth(), image.getIntrinsicHeight());
// Replace blank spaces with image icon
SpannableString sb = new SpannableString(" " + tabTitles[position]);
ImageSpan imageSpan = new ImageSpan(image, ImageSpan.ALIGN_BASELINE);
sb.setSpan(imageSpan, 0, 1, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
return sb;
Thanks for helping

I was looking at https://guides.codepath.com/android/Google-Play-Style-Tabs-using-TabLayout today and had the same question. Adding a newline to the SpannableString worked for me, so the following modification will do the trick:
SpannableString sb = new SpannableString(" \n" + tabTitles[position]);

Put the three views (ImageView for icon and 2 TextViews) in a vertical LinearLayout and use the android:layout_gravity property in XML to centre the views in the LinearLayout. Additionally set the android:gravity property on the TextViews to be "center" to centre the text within the TextView.
If you don't want to use XML (which seems to be the case) layout_gravity can be set using the LinearLayout.LayoutParams constructor with parameters for width, height AND GRAVITY. Text alignment can be done using mTextView.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);

Just use the drawableTop attribute for this.
<TextView
android:drawableTop="#drawable/my_drawable"/>
Or from code:
myTextView.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(
0, R.drawable.my_drawable, 0, 0);

Android add more smileys in one edittext?

I need to add more than one smileys in a single edittext box. For add a single smiley I follow this link
How to add more smileys in a single Edittext box? Thanks in advance..

You can add as many ImageSpans to a Spannable as you like. Just follow the concept laid out by the code you're linking. You probably want to use a SpannableStringBuilder too.
Drawable happySmiley = mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.happy);
happySmiley .setBounds(0, 0, d.getIntrinsicWidth(), d.getIntrinsicHeight());
Drawable sadSmiley = mContext.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.sad);
sadSmiley .setBounds(0, 0, d.getIntrinsicWidth(), d.getIntrinsicHeight());
SpannableStringBuilder builder = new SpannableStringBuilder();
builder.append("Some text [happy_smiley_anchor]");
builder.setSpan(new ImageSpan(happySmiley), builder.length()-"[happy_smiley_anchor]".length(), builder.length(), Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
builder.append(". Some more text [sad_smiley_anchor]");
builder.setSpan(new ImageSpan(sadSmiley), builder.length()-"[sad_smiley_anchor]".length(), builder.length(), Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
edittext.setText(builder);
Obviously you can use any anchor text/character you like - it gets replaced when the ImageSpan is inserted. It might even work with an empty char/string, but I didn't try that.

You can add as many ImageSpans to a Spannable as you like. Just follow the concept laid out by the code you're linking. You probably want to use a SpannableStringBuilder too.
SpannableStringBuilder ssb = new SpannableStringBuilder("Some Text");
Bitmap image1 = BitmapFactory.decodeResource( getResources(), R.drawable.yourimage1 );
Bitmap image2 = BitmapFactory.decodeResource( getResources(), R.drawable.yourimage1 ); ssb.setSpan( new ImageSpan( image1 ), 0, 1, Spannable.SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE );
ssb.setSpan( new ImageSpan( image2 ), 2,3, Spannable.SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE );
deleteButton.setText( ssb, BufferType.SPANNABLE );
I tried above code and it works fine. I added two image span in one text view, likewise you can add as many image span to textview.

combining multi strings and text in android

I'm pretty new to android, Java and sqlite. For my first program I'm creating a program that will take user input and place in predefined text.
Example: "text" string1 "more text" string2 "even more text" etc
My text will be one color and strings will display in another color.
I'm using sqlite to seperate my data and code and this is where I hit a wall. Trying to find help on how I will be able to combine my above text into one row/column in my database table.
Using only one above example i could get this up and running. But there will be 50+ of above example for release making a database a must especially when I want to add more after release.

Most probably you've read up on SpannableStringBuilder, which allows you to add color to the text in your TextView's content. Check out the code below:
SpannableStringBuilder ssb = new SpannableStringBuilder(<your text>);
ForegroundColorSpan fcs = new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.rgb(255, 0, 0));
ssb.setSpan(fcs, 0, ssb.length, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
textView.setText(ssb);
The code above will work in most cases, however what you want is to have different alternating colors on a single TextView. Then you should do the following:
String text = your_text + text_from_database;
SpannableStringBuilder ssb = new SpannableStringBuilder(text);
ForegroundColorSpan fcs = new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.rgb(255, 0, 0));
ForegroundColorSpan fcs2 = new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.rgb(0, 255 0));
ssb.setSpan(fcs, 0, your_text, Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
ssb.setSpan(fcs2, your_text.length(), ssb.length(), Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
textView.setText(ssb);
The above code will now work, but you'll notice that if you add another text your_another_text and want to use the previous fcs instance for a second time, the previously colored your_text will now lose its formatting (color). This time you'll need to create another ForegroundColorSpan fcs3 to format the third part of the SpannableStringBuilder. The key here is to use a character style in a setSpan method only once. See below:
String testTest = "abcdefgh";
String testTest2 = "ijklmnop";
String testTest3 = "qrstuvwxyz";
SpannableStringBuilder ssb = new SpannableStringBuilder(testTest+testTest2+testTest3);
ForegroundColorSpan fcs = new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.rgb(255, 0, 0));
ForegroundColorSpan fcs2 = new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.rgb(0, 255, 0));
ForegroundColorSpan fcs3 = new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.rgb(255, 0, 0));
ssb.setSpan(fcs, 0, testTest.length(), Spannable.SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE);
ssb.setSpan(fcs2, testTest.length(), (testTest+testTest2).length(), Spannable.SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE);
ssb.setSpan(fcs3, (testTest+testTest2).length(), ssb.length(), Spannable.SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE);
test.setText(ssb);
This method is good if you know you have a fixed number of String elements in your SpannableStringBuilder. If you have wish to have a TextView of dynamic length and number of elements, you need to do this in a different approach. What worked for me was to convert each string element into a SpannableString, use setSpan, and append it to the TextView. This is useful if you're using a loop to build your TextView.
TextView test = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.test);
String testTest = "abcdefgh";
String testTest2 = "ijklmnop";
String testTest3 = "qrstuvwxyz";
SpannableString ssb = new SpannableString(testTest);
ForegroundColorSpan fcs = new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.rgb(255, 0, 0));
ForegroundColorSpan fcs2 = new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.rgb(0, 255, 0));
ForegroundColorSpan fcs3 = new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.rgb(255, 0, 0));
ssb.setSpan(fcs, 0, ssb.length(), Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
test.setText(ssb);
SpannableString ssb2 = new SpannableString(testTest2);
ssb2.setSpan(fcs2, 0, ssb2.length(), Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
test.append(ssb2);
SpannableString ssb3 = new SpannableString(testTest3);
ssb3.setSpan(fcs3, 0, ssb3.length(), Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
test.append(ssb3);
