I have a menu with checkable items. I want to put the CheckBox first and the Text to the right of the CheckBox. Any idea how to do this?
It's not possible to do this using menu items. What you can do, is use a custom Toolbar with a custom ImageView(aligned right) with the image src as the overflow icon (the one with 3 vertical dots). Also create a custom view(let's say checkBoxList) in your layout, which contains the text to the right of checkbox, the way you want it. Keep this checkBoxList aligned to the top right of your parent layout (super easy if you are using ConstraintLayout). Also, keep the visibility of this List to invisible. When overflow icon get's clicked, set the visibility of checkBoxList to visible. Also, have an onClickListener on the parent Layout, where you set the visibility of checkBoxList back to invisible( So that when the user clicks on anywhere outside checkBoxList, it closes).

i have a list view with 3 buttons it. the functionality of those button would be that when clicked that single view should expand in height to show a text box. i havent done any code in the CustomAdapter of that listview to provide any reference to it.
What you just described is an ExpandableListView.
EDIT: Also, you can have the TextView's visibility set to "gone" and just become visible when the button is clicked.
I have noticied that in some android menues, a list view is shown that lists items with a (>) icon on the right. It is something like the expandable list but the arrow aims right. Is this something built-in, or have I to do it myself?
You have to make your list view row layout like that.
You can set image in Drawable left in your row layout
It is called Group Indicator and it is available by default in ExpandableListView.
if you don't want Group Indicator to be visible, then you have to use setGroupIndicator(null). But by default it will be visible for any Expandable ListView you create.
And when it shows an arrow towards left it means the group is in collapsed state and when it points bottom it means the group is in expanded state.
In ListView
** > Right Arrow on right side of the row,**
is putted to navigate to another Activity.
That arrow is some-time ImageButton, by clicking on it;
uoy can go to other activity.
I have a listview with custom listitem. I have bunch of textviews in Relative layout. And when I click on listitem it goes to different screen. Now I have added 3 buttons and toggle button to list item and I CAN NOT CLICK THE LIST ITEM. What am I missing :(
set focusable property of all the buttons to false and so that you can click on list and also touch event for all buttons will work
When the user clicks the row, the ListView will look for a widget implementing the Checkable interface. The RelativeLayout does not. An easy way to do that is simply to create your own CheckableRelativeLayout class. See http://www.marvinlabs.com/2010/10/custom-listview-ability-check-items/ for a full tutorial with code.
Also, the buttons and other items in your row layout should not be focusable. You can see other SO questions: Android Row becomes Unclickable with Button
I have a ListView with custom adapter. In each row there is a checkbox and couple of textviews. I want user to give option to delete the check marked items, so as soon as soon clicks on one of the checkbox, I want a button bar to slide in from the bottom and stay at the bottom regardless of listview scroll. This is something like the email app behavior of Motorola Cliq and to some extent gmail app itself.
I have tried adding a relativelayout (containing buttons) below the listview, which has visibility set to gone initially, but as soon as user checks a button, the visibility changes to "visible". I have added a slide-in animation to it too. It is working but problem is that it is overlapping the last element of the listview which user can not checkmark if the button bar has already become visible. So I tried to set the bottom margin of the listview equal to the height of the button bar when I'm changing the button bar visibility, which solves the problem of overlap, but now the checkbox behavior has gone weird. Clicking on one checkmark tries to checkmark another checkmark in the list for some weird reason. I noticed that this happens because as soon as I change the listview margin, list redraws itself, and during this new call to getView() method of adapter, things mess up.
I wanted to ask if anyone has done something like this. What is the best method to add such button bar below list while keeping the slide-in animation intact. Also, What is the footer-view of listview and can that solve my problem?
I jave a list of item (linearlayout inside a scrollview where i add buttons vertically to linearlayout dynamically from the java code ) ? i need when i click on one button the item moves up (scroll up) , to make the item at the first of the screen ??!
Well I never did that, but from the ListView reference it seems pretty clear that set setSelectionFromTop is what you are searching for.
