I created an activity on android studio and I have put there something like 20 ImageButtons. I want to use it as on each click on an image it will move to a new activity. All of the Image Buttons are working on the same principle, my app is a game, and each image represents a level. I want to build one function that will be used on all buttons and will move the user to a new activity according to the data(the properties of the image button) and use that data on the new activity. Every level has its own activity and the main activity is the menu of the game.
Below is my code:
public ImageButton beatsCall; public void Beats(){ beatsCall=(ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.beats); beatsCall.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { #Override public void onClick(View v) { Intent toy = new Intent(Levels.this,Beats.class); startActivity(toy); } }); }
You need to provide more information and code. However, you may want to try set a distinct onClickListener and then set all the imageButtons to that listener that will perform an action depending on the button clicked. For example, say you have 4 imageButtons and you want to perform a different action (in your case, start a new activity) for each different button click.
View.OnClickListener listener = new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
switch (v.getId()) {
case R.id.button1:
//Start activity 1 here, for example
Intent intent = new Intent(this, YourNewActivity1.class);
String message = v.getId().toString;
intent.putExtra(EXTRA_MESSAGE, message);
startActivity(intent);
break;
case R.id.textView2:
//Start activity 2 here
break;
case R.id.textView3:
//Start activity 3 here
break;
case R.id.textView4:
//Start activity 4 here
}
}
};
button1.setOnClickListener(listener);
button2.setOnClickListener(listener);
button3.setOnClickListener(listener);
button4.setOnClickListener(listener);
This is assuming you have the imageButtons set up in your layout file and you have them initialized in your activity.
In your new activity, you can get the message as such:
Intent intent = getIntent();
String message = intent.getStringExtra(MainActivity.EXTRA_MESSAGE);
if (some condition with message){
do something
}
You may also check out this documentation for further information regarding intents.
Something like this? In your xml make your images clickable and give them ID's like this...
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/level_1_button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clickable="true"
/>
Then call a function like this in your Activity's onCreate
private void setupButtons() {
findViewById(R.id.level_1_button).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
startActivity(new Intent(getApplication(), LevelOne.class));
}
});
findViewById(R.id.level_2_button).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
startActivity(new Intent(getApplication(), LevelTwo.class));
}
});
}
You could assign a tag via android:tag to each of your views and then use your single listener to switch on the view's tag to branch the behavior you want.

I am creating an android studio colouring app and need to have it so that the user can select which image they want to colour. I want it so that they click on an image button on one activity and this changes the background of the next activity that the button takes them to however I have no idea how to go about this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou
From what I understand, you want to change the color of the next activity on button click of current activity. So, what you can do is:
button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener{
#Override
public void onClick(View view){
Intent intent = new Intent(mContext, MyActivity2.class);
//Implement getDesiredColor to get the color according to your logic
intent.putExtra("color", getDesiredColor());
mContext.startActivity(intent);
}
});
In your second activity's onCreate
onCreate(...){
...
View rootLayout = //Initialize root layout here
Intent intent = getIntent();
if(intent.hasExtra("color")){
rootLayout.setBackgroundColor(intent.getExtra("color"));
}
...
}
Let me know in case you have any doubts.
UPDATE:
With drawable your code will become something like this:
button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener{
#Override
public void onClick(View view){
Intent intent = new Intent(mContext, MyActivity2.class);
//Implement getDesiredDrawable to get the drawable according to your logic
intent.putExtra("drawable", getDesiredDrawable());
mContext.startActivity(intent);
}
});
In your second activity's onCreate
onCreate(...){
...
View rootLayout = //Initialize root layout here
Intent intent = getIntent();
if(intent.hasExtra("drawable")){
rootLayout.setBackground(intent.getExtra("drawable"));
//Or if you are using ImageView in your root layout to set the background image (I'm using Picasso here):
//Picasso.with(mContext).load(intent.getExtra("drawable")).into(myBackgroundImageView);
}
...
}
UPDATE 2:
You can have a hashmap mapping each imagebutton with a drawable.
e.g.
HashMap<Integer, Integer> mViewIdToDrawableMap = new HashMap<>();
mViewIdToDrawableMap.put(mImageButton1.getId(), R.drawable.image1);
mViewIdToDrawableMap.put(mImageButton2.getId(), R.drawable.image2);
mViewIdToDrawableMap.put(mImageButton3.getId(), R.drawable.image3);
public int getDesiredDrawable(View view){
return mViewIdToDrawableMap.get(view.getId());
}
How will you call this function:
button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener{
#Override
public void onClick(View view){
Intent intent = new Intent(mContext, MyActivity2.class);
//Implement getDesiredDrawable to get the drawable according to your logic
intent.putExtra("drawable", getDesiredDrawable(view));
mContext.startActivity(intent);
}
});
Now, your last question what is rootLayout?
Lets say your activity2 where you want to show this image has somehitng like this as layyout:
<RelativeLayout>
<ImageView
...
android:id="id+/background_imageview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
...
/>
</RelativeLayout>
In your Activity2's onCreate, do somehting like this (after getting the drawable as I explained earlier):
//Here mBackgroundImageView is the background_imageview in your layout
Picasso.with(mContext).load(drawable).into(mBackgroundImageView);
Hi i am creating a simple educational game in which user has to press three images in order to proceed to the next level and in next level user has to press 5 images.
i have gone through the on click but i using onIntent intent = new Intent(this.getApplicationContext(), Activity.class);
this.startActivity(intent, 0); i am only able to start new activity on single button pressed but i wanted to start new activity when user has finished pressing three image Buttons.
Thanks in advanced.
you can use global int variable and increase it every button click and if its more than your button number open new activity
public int btn = 0;
MyButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View v)
{
if(btn >= 2) {
//open your activity
}
else{
btn++;
}
}
});
Based on my understanding of your problem,I have provided a possible simple implementation.
Use a simple data structure like queue or stack. When a image is tapped, add information about the image to the data structure. After adding the information to data structure see if number of items in data structure is equal to 3 ? if yes check data structure has info about the required three images and not just info about the same image (happens if user taps on same image more than once). If condition is met then call startActivity(). Generalize this so that you can reuse the logic in different activities, irrespective of the number of images.
Hi i finally achieved my desired activity. now with this after checking two check box app will start new activity.
`private CheckBox chkIos, chkAndroid, chkWindows;
private Button btnDisplay;
OnClickListener checkBoxListener;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
chkIos = (CheckBox) findViewById(R.id.chkIos);
chkAndroid = (CheckBox) findViewById(R.id.chkAndroid);
checkBoxListener =new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
if(chkIos.isChecked()&&chkAndroid.isChecked()) {
Intent i1=new Intent(getApplicationContext(), Main1.class);
startActivity(i1);
if(chkAndroid.isChecked()) {
Intent i2=new Intent(getApplicationContext(), Main1.class);
startActivity(i1);
}
}
}
};
chkIos.setOnClickListener(checkBoxListener);
chkAndroid.setOnClickListener(checkBoxListener);
}
}
`
thanks for all your answers.
I'm trying to execute a new contentView this way. What am I missing? I get a force close onClick.
final Button btnStatus = (Button) findViewById(R.id.Status);
btnStatus.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = getIntent();
startActivity(intent);
setContentView(R.layout.newlayout);
}
});
This is just wrong. You can do one of two things here.
Not recommended but could work for what you are doing
Simply using setContentView(R.layout.newlayout) will set the new layout assuming newlayout.xml is a layout in your layout folder
public void onClick(View v)
{
setContentView(R.layout.newlayout);
}
Recommended
Create a new Activity and set the content in it to this new layout and call that Activity in your onClick()
public void onClick(View v)
{
Intent intent = new Intent(CurrentActivityName.this, NextActivityName.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
if you want to change layout then try to,
{setContentView(R.layout.newlayout);}
if you want to change activity, then try to intent to forward another activity, and check also to entry of this activity in manifest file in android.
I have the following problem:
I have a TableLayout along with several TableRows, which are dynamically created.
On the right side of every row I create a button, which should call another activity.
Now I want to pass some information with intent.putExtra(). In this case I want so pass the row number, which is also the first information in the row.
Here is a picture of the current state:
This is how I create the buttons during run-time (in a loop):
Button b1 = new Button (this, null, android.R.attr.buttonStyleSmall);
b1.setId(1000+grButtonId);
b1.setText("Request GR");
b1.setLayoutParams(params);
b1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
// Some code, taken out for clarity
// See next code snippet
}
});
grButtonId++;
tr.addView(b1);
My idea so far is to use the id of the button (of course), and get the line number by the value of grButtonId.
Now comes my problem, let's have a detailed look at my onClickmethod:
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
// finished is true, as soon as GRRequest has recieved the data
if(!finished & !dataRequested){
new GRRequest().execute(getIntent().getLongExtra("poNr", 0),(long)view.getId());
b1.setText("Show GR");
Log.d("DataList", detailList.toString());
dataRequested=true;
}
else{
if (dataRequested){
b1.setText("Show GR");
}
Intent intent = new Intent(DataTableCreater.this, GRTableCreater.class);
intent.putExtra("lineNr",view.getId());
intent.putExtra("dataList", detailList);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
When I request my data, the button I clicked on gets set to "Show GR" , as intended. The other buttons stay on "Request GR", this is also fine. But now I want these Buttons to Change to "Show GR" when tapped first and on second tap start the activity.
By now, the buttons change to "Show GR" and directly start the activity.
What would be a solution, to make this work?
Create a boolean Array clickedOnce[] = new boolean[grButtonId+1] one field for every Button.
Then have this
public void onClick(View view) {
if(!finished){
new GRRequest().execute(getIntent().getLongExtra("poNr", 0),(long)view.getId());
b1.setText("Show GR");
Log.d("DataList", detailList.toString());
clickedOnce[Integer.parseInt(String.valueOf(view.getId()).substring(1,4))]=true; //sets the clickedOnce for this button to true, substring(1,4) is needed to cancle the leading 1 from the id
}
else{
//Checks, if the button was clicked once
if (!clickedOnce[Integer.parseInt(String.valueOf(view.getId()).substring(1,4))]){
b1.setText("Show GR");
clickedOnce[Integer.parseInt(String.valueOf(view.getId()).substring(1,4))]=true;
}
else{
Intent intent = new Intent(DataTableCreater.this, GRTableCreater.class);
intent.putExtra("lineNr",view.getId());
intent.putExtra("dataList", detailList);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
}
I have this clickable LinearLayout view, im trying to have it change Activity when clicked by every time i click the object i get a error.
final LinearLayout lindet = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.detials);
lindet.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent i = new Intent(SellingActivity.this, DetailsActivity.class);
startActivity(i);
finish();
}
});
Did you remember to add the DetailsActivity to the AndroidManifest?
Supporting Macarse I would add that use SellingActivity.this.finish() instead of finish()
I believe this will prove to be your problem solver.
