Better way to divide screen and reuse element in activity - android

I´m a bit lost.
I´m developping my first Android app, and I´m not sure about the better way to implement some activities.
No my problem is than in my app, I have to divide the screen in two equals parts, one side for each player. Each side has two TextView, some buttons, etc, the same for both player, but one the sides rotated 180 degrees relative to the other.
What would be the better way to do that?
Define a whole layout and repeat the same layout inside for each player? I think this would be the worst solution because the management of the listeners for the views would be duplicated and more complicated.
Use a layout to define the player views and put it in a ListView or Table with two items/rows, using a custom adapter to unify the management of the listeners? In this case I don´t know how to divide the screen in two equals parts and fit the whole screen...
Use fragments, defining a fragment to define the player a put it twice in the layout?
Another idea.....
Could anyone help me and tell me the better way to do that in Android and the better way in terms of management and performance?
Thanks in advance.

I finally decided to use the include tag in my root layout this way:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:padding="10dip"
android:orientation="vertical"
tools:context="com.example.cdp.mispartidas.actividades.Duel">
<include android:id="#+id/player0"
android:layout_gravity="top"
android:rotation="180"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
layout="#layout/player_duel"/>
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="1dp"
android:background="#android:color/holo_blue_dark"/>
<include android:id="#+id/player1"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
layout="#layout/player_duel"/>
Now my doubt is the better way to manage the listeners. In the "player_duel" layout I have two buttons that modify the content of a TextView, another button for another task, and Dialog that has to appear when click on the TextView, etc.
Now I have all the View duplicated. I can identify then by using the corresponding layout, but how I could unify the event listeners management?
Regards

player_duel.xml
<LinearLayout>
<TextView android:id="#+id/tv_0"/>
<Button android:id="#+id/btn_0"/>
<Button android:id="#+id/btn_1"/>
<Button android:id="#+id/btn_2"/>
</LinearLayout>
OnClickListner listener = new OnClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v){
if(v.getParent()!=null && v.getParent().getId() == R.id.player0){
swicth(v.getId()){
case R.id.tv_0:
break
case R.id.btn_0:
break
case R.id.btn_1:
break
case R.id.btn_2:
break
}
}else if(v.getParent()!=null && v.getParent().getId() == R.id.player1){
......
}
}
};
((ViewGroup)findViewById(R.id.player0)).findViewById(R.id.tv_0).setOnClickListener(listener);
......

This is the layout

</RelativeLayout>
I finally found the solution by defining the two-views array and using the "fake" viewholder. I define a listener for all the common views in the layout, and store the index as property in the constructor, so in the listener I only have to refer the proper item in the array with the index.

How to add another ImageView over an existing ImageView dynamically?

I know similar questions have been asked before but I think my case is different.
So I'm trying to make a playlist using a RecyclerView and when a song is selected I want the circular image which holds the Image for the song to change to a tick sign while the original image can be seen faded in the background. I have my tick image ready.
How can I add this image over my existing ImageView dynamically? The putting one image in the background method is not a solution for me because the music image file is loaded dynamically from Realm and thus can't be the background.
The XML code for my RecyclerView items is below:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:paddingLeft="30dp"
>
<de.hdodenhof.circleimageview.CircleImageView
android:layout_width="120dp"
android:layout_height="120dp"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:transitionName="albumArt"
android:id="#+id/album_art"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
android:src="#color/colorPrimary"/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:gravity="right"
android:paddingLeft="20dp"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/data"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:fontFamily="sans-serif"
android:textColor="#ffffff"
android:text="Music Name"
android:textSize="17sp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/data_album"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:fontFamily="sans-serif"
android:textColor="#bfe0e0e0"
android:textSize="14sp"
android:text="Music Artist"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
</LinearLayout>
How can I do this dynamically from java code? Can this be done using set visibility somehow? If yes, please explain new ways to do this are appreciated as well.
You can make use of FrameLayout here and place both ImageViews inside the FrameLayout and based on condition you can make one of them visible and other invisible
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:paddingLeft="30dp"
>
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<de.hdodenhof.circleimageview.CircleImageView
android:layout_width="120dp"
android:layout_height="120dp"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:transitionName="albumArt"
android:id="#+id/album_art"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
android:src="#color/colorPrimary"/>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView"
android:layout_width="120dp"
android:layout_height="120dp">
</ImageView>
</FrameLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:gravity="right"
android:paddingLeft="20dp"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/data"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:fontFamily="sans-serif"
android:textColor="#ffffff"
android:text="Music Name"
android:textSize="17sp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/data_album"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:fontFamily="sans-serif"
android:textColor="#bfe0e0e0"
android:textSize="14sp"
android:text="Music Artist"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Yes, it can be done by using set visibility. In your layout file, you will most likely need to use a Relative Layout so you can anchor both image views exactly the same. Then on the view you do not want to initially display, you make it invisible by adding the following:
android:visibility="invisible"
Then later on when you want to toggle the visibility on/off, you can use:
myImageView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
myImageView.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);

RecyclerView item touch to highlight

I am using a RecyclerView and I am not able to see any feedback when I touch on the item of the RecyclerView. How do I achieve it?
I am trying to show a feedback to the user when they are touching the row of RecyclerView. Something like a ripple effect.
I want to know how to achieve it in a specific row of the RecyclerView.
This is the recycler view's custom row layout.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:layout_below="#id/nav_header_container" />
</RelativeLayout>
I just need to highlight/give feedback of the row which is being touched by the user. How do I achieve it?
Thanks in advance.
You need to add android:focusable="true" in your custom row item for RecyclerView
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:id="#+id/drawer_row"
android:background="?android:selectableItemBackground"
android:focusable="true"
android:clickable="true" >
</RelativeLayout>
You can add a Ripple effect by using THIS LIBRARY.Include it in your Gradle files using.
compile 'com.thomsonreuters:rippledecoratorview:+'
Simply put your row layout in a RippleDecoratorView.For eg:
<com.thomsonreuters.rippledecoratorview.RippleDecoratorView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:layout_margin="4dp"
rdv:rdv_rippleColor="#android:color/holo_blue_dark"
rdv:rdv_rippleAnimationFrames="60"
rdv:rdv_rippleAnimationPeakFrame="15"
rdv:rdv_rippleMaxAlpha="0.8"
rdv:rdv_rippleAnimationDuration="600"
rdv:rdv_rippleRadius="50dp">
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:id="#+id/drawer_row"
android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"
android:clickable="true">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/title"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="30dp"
android:layout_marginStart="30dp"
android:layout_toEndOf="#+id/navigation_image"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/navigation_image"
android:textSize="17sp" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/navigation_image"
android:layout_width="24dp"
android:layout_height="24dp"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="30dp"
android:layout_marginStart="30dp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/horizontal_line"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="1dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="#F1F1F1" />
</RelativeLayout>
</com.thomsonreuters.rippledecoratorview.RippleDecoratorView>
Or you can use any of these libs acc to your requirement:
1>https://github.com/balysv/material-ripple
2>https://github.com/siriscac/RippleView
3>https://github.com/traex/RippleEffect
I can help you but I will need some feedback from you as well. In the onCreateVIewHolder inside your recycler View adapter you must have defined textViews and assigned it to the elements inside the sample recycler view. Add this. Make sure you define the layout outside the function so its accessible throughout the class
RelativeLayout layout;
layout=(RelativeLayout)view.findViewById.(R.layout.drawer_row)
Then go to you recycler view adapter and in the onBindViewHolder define
holder.layout.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// Handle onClick event
}
});
In the onClick event you can add any kind of feedback you want to the user to experience such as starting a new activity, toasts, messages or in this case a ripple effect. You can use a custom library for ripples such as these
Ripple effect for lollipop views
https://android-arsenal.com/details/1/980
https://github.com/balysv/material-ripple
Ripple effects are not supported in pre-Lollipop devices.
Still use this material-ripple
compile 'com.balysv:material-ripple:1.0.2'
Apply ripple on holder.drawView
MaterialRippleLayout.on(holder.drawerView)
.rippleColor(Color.RED)
.create();
Or you can apply from xml
<com.balysv.materialripple.MaterialRippleLayout
android:id="#+id/ripple"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<Button
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:text="Button inside a ripple"/>
</com.balysv.materialripple.MaterialRippleLayout>

Android: fill relative layout height (item layout) inside ListView

I'm not able to make a View that fill the height of a RelativeLayout, which is the layout of ListView items. Here is my layout:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<View
android:id="#+id/fill_the_height_please"
android:layout_width="15dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/red"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/delivery_list_item_dest"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/fill_the_height_please"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="2dp"
android:text="Destinatario" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/delivery_list_item_address"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignLeft="#id/delivery_list_item_dest"
android:layout_below="#id/delivery_list_item_dest"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:layout_marginRight="5dp"
android:text="Location" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/delivery_list_item_mapBtn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginRight="0dp"
android:src="#drawable/map_location"
android:background="#null" />
View with id fill_the_height_please not fill the item height. In figure below you can see the result (nothing is shown):
I'd like something like this:
ù
I have also try to change view layout as follows but not works anyway:
<View
android:id="#+id/fill_the_height_please"
android:layout_width="15dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="#color/red"/>
Please can you help to achieve my goal? Thank you.
One suggestion would be add layout_alignTop="#+id/delivery_list_item_mapBtn" and layout_alignBottom="#+id/delivery_list_item_mapBtn" to the View and make it always fit the image height.
Try changing
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/delivery_list_item_statusBtn"
to
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/fill_the_height_please"
You don't have delivery_list_item_statusBtn. But i see red part even without changing this. Try it and if it doesn't help please post code of your adapter.
Looking here it seems RelativeLayout has a bug in version 17 and lower. So i have change my layout as follows:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<View
android:id="#+id/fill_the_height_please"
android:layout_width="15dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/red"/>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/delivery_list_item_dest"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Destinatario"
android:layout_marginBottom="5dp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/delivery_list_item_address"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Location" />
</LinearLayout>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/delivery_list_item_mapBtn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginRight="0dp"
android:src="#drawable/map_location"
android:background="#null" />
</RelativeLayout>
A little bit more complex but works. However i leave the question unresolved in case someone find a solution using only a RelativeLayout

XML listview overlaps elements when setting visibility

I have an xml layout of about 3000 lines, which serves as the layout for a questionnaire type of app. Each page of the questionnaire is inside of a different linear layout and I set the visibility of the linear layouts in code using View.GONE or View.VISIBLE. This way the user can navigate through the pages without loading new intents each time.
However, when I navigate fast through the app (just pressing the next button to go through the screens), some of the elements that are supposed to be View.GONE shows up and overlaps over the VISIBLE items. This only happens with linear layouts that have list views inside of them. For all the other pages.
I can scroll fast through them, but just the ones with list views in the View.GONE elements sometimes shows up when I navigate too fast. How can I fix this ? Let me know if you want code ... however the xml is very large.
T.I.A.
EDIT
This is a sample of my xml code, I have 3000 lines of this repeating in my xml...

I have different types of listviews and adapters, custom and android built in. I don't think the problem lies with the adapter since it works pretty well displaying the listviews and the problem occurs even before the listviews are populated...
I have a temporary fix, not sure how correct this is as an answer, but this fixed my problem... I applied this to my entire layout, and it adds an animation when I hide and show layouts, thus slowing them down a bit, removing the overlapping elements from showing up.
This is what I added to my layout:
android:animateLayoutChanges="true"

How to place one layout on another layout

I have a question. I am working on a layout wherein I want one layout to be above the other layout.
Situation: There is one RelativeLayout which has a Touchlistener. At the bottom of this layout, there is anothet relative layout having three buttons which are clickable. Now the problem is when I click on one these buttons, the listener of the first layout gets activated and none of the buttons work.
I did make use of frame layout but its not working. Did make use of .bringToFront method. But this did not work also.
Please I need suggestions for the same.
I am uploading my code.

use Layout Inflator ... make an xml . with the use of inflator , you can inflate another layout over the previous one.
