I am trying to insert a textview with an imageview inside a Edittext as in below .
can anyone pls give me ideas about how to implement it or something.
thanks :)
update: the textviews in the edittext will vary dynamically
To show textview in android edittext you can try this code..
EditText your_edittext = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.text);
your_edittext.setHint("Your Text");
Now to add image you can do it like this..
Your_edittext.setCompoundDrawables(null, null, getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.your_image), null

How can I prevent a TextView, or any visual object, from wrapping to the screen and instead have them cropped programmatically?
I have a table view which is loaded with TextViews as cells. I need to crop the text inside the textview instead of wrapping.
Is there some code to do this? or is there any workaround?
For example, I have like this:
But what I want is:
I found my own way to fix this. I set the textView.SetMaxLines to 1 and it solved the problem for me.
You can use setSingleLine method:
TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(...);
textView.setSingleLine(true);
and setEllipsize to remove ellipsize:
textView.setEllipsize(null);
Hello i am trying to display the content i receive in an activity using TextView but it seems that TextView is overlapping a button that i have put in activity's UI.My goal is to put TextView and the button side by side. I have put the TextView in the UI dynamically like this:
String display = extras.getString("EXTRA_MESSAGE");
TextView textView = new TextView(this);
textView.setTextSize(40);
textView.setWidth(20);
textView.setHeight(20);
textView.setText(display);
setContentView(textView);
I know i miss something but i cant find what it is,so can you please suggest a way how to fix that?
Thanks a lot in advance!
When you call setContentView(textView); it changes your layout to just the textView so it isn't overlapping your Button but your Button isn't shown anymore. You need to add it to your layout and put it where you want it.
You can do this by getting a reference to your root View in your xml and calling addView(textVie) on that root View and use addRule() to position your TextView where you want. However, if it isn't necessary to add your TextView dynamically then it is much easier to declare it in your xml.
If you do want to add it dynamically still, then this SO answer, and many more, covers it.
I am trying to hide unwanted TextView and EditText fields dynamically using my program. The code is working, but the hidden fields is being replaced with blank space. I wish the other contents below the hidden fields must be automatically get loaded on the hidden field(so that unnecessary scrolls and plain white field can be avoided)
EDIT 1
Please find the sample
http://i.stack.imgur.com/nnXrV.png
http://i.stack.imgur.com/BDQFm.png
text3.setVisibility(View.GONE);
edit3.setVisibility(View.GONE);
Put visibility of TextView and EditText to View.GONE not to View.INVISIBLE
TextView tv;
EditText et;
tv.setVisibility(View.GONE);
et.setVisibility(View.GONE);
Use as above when you want to hide the view.
this will hide your textview and edittext
TextView tv = (TextView)findviewbyId(R.id.textview1);
EditText et = (EditText)findviewbyId(R.id.edittext1);
tv.setVisibility(View.Gone);
et.setVisibility(View.Gone);
I have created a custom LinearLayout through program which have a custom TextView within it. I have not added the TextView using inflater. Now I want to use this LinearLayout multiple times in XMl layout. But the problem is that how can I set the text of these TextView within the LinearLayout?
Any ideas??
If I right understand it will help you. Good luck!
LinearLayout layout = findViewById(id_linear_layout);
((TextView) layout.findViewById(id_textview)).setText("Text");
When adding the customTextView set the tag using setTag method. And then to retrieve it use linearLayout.findViewWithTag method to retrieve the customTextView and as usual use setText to set the text
You an also alternatively set the id using setId and retrieve it using findViewById method
Use a reference of that TextView to to set the text.
Then add this TextView to LinearLayout.
ex -
TextView text = new TextView(yourActivity.this);
text.setText("Sample Text");
ll.addView(text);
// ll is your LinearLayout.
I built a linear layout inside of a dialog , the problem here that i want to change the TextView of this layout but i don't know how ! ,, any help ?
The same way you would do it with a normal view.
TextView text = (TextView) dialog.findViewById(R.id.TextView01);
text.setText("Hello");
