developing an app, and I was wondering if someone on here could give me some general information about what this thing from the pinterest app on both android and ios is called and where i can find out more information about how to create a more basic one etc... it is where you press down and hold on a picture and 3 buttons come up in a fan sort of pattern. here is a pic
thanks a bunch! Any info to start learning would be great!
It is called an 'ArcMenu' and one Android implementation can be found here:

I want to make a 360 panorama viewer in Android studio.
The idea is to make it exactly like the existing googles street view application.
I want to know how to add a/some UI element inside the VR view so that if a user looks at it, the 360 picture would change to some other picture.
I know it is a long way to go but for now, if somebody could help me or direct me towards achieving it, it will really help.
Thanks in Advance.
A good place to start is a demo app by Google called TreasureHunt (this is part of GoogleVR). Download the sample code compile and run you'll get a sense of what you need to do. TreasureHunt is also found on Google Play.
I am bit confused and i could not find answer to my question. Almost all the mobile application try to take us to different page or screen when we try to search. Can anybody explain me the philosophy behind taking user to a new screen on search rather searching on same screen and refreshing data?
Any links or examples to clear my doubt would really appreciable.
Android Provides a SearchInterface which helps a developer to easily integrate search functionalities and for that you have to create a SearchableActivity that is why everyone uses a different activity for that,

I was wondering how can I replicate the sideways gallery like the facebook mobile app but being able to scroll down the feed anytime I want.
I was thinking about "listening" for side-swypes and replacing the current ImageView but that doesn't sound like an elegant solution.
I searched for awhile and didn't find any library worth using
Is there any library or do you have any idea how to do it?
You could use the ViewPager component.
Reference: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/view/ViewPager.html
Here are some tutorial that can help you get started:

Hi friends i am planned to work on user interface part, i wanted to make my own user interface for my gallery application. for example gallery view should be in semi circular view. can any one suggest me on this
Thanks in advance
Do you want something like this!!
you can find it in this link
sorry but the link is in french language but you can find sources in the bottom of the page Mirror links
You should start by learning more about the Gallery in general. This link would make a good start.
Understand that code, go through the tutorials and begin experimenting on making incremental changes and seeing if they work.
Using this knowledge and prototype code start thinking about how you might go about creating your custom semi-circle gallery. Experiment and try some different things.
When/if you run into any issues or specific problems, post your question on a new thread and I'm sure you will find people willing to help you out.
I'm writing a new app for android and I would like to implement also a first launch tutorial. In particular, the tutorial has to be interactive. Basically, after a user registers to the service, a minimum settings will be required.
I'd like something like today we have into Google Apps, like Sheets, Docs and so far. The exception there is that those tutorials have the aim to explain how the app works. Here I want to have something where user can input some data.
I was looking at ShowcaseView but seems to be deprecated and old in style.
So here the question is: what is the best way to implement that? ViewPager?
I also had a look to this other question, but it did not help too much.
Any advice is really appreciated.
EDIT: I have found this other nice alternative. AppIntro It seems what I was looking for. :)
There are few I found by quick searching Github:
https://github.com/Seishin/showcaseview-android
https://github.com/worker8/TourGuide
https://github.com/amlcurran/ShowcaseView
I'm pretty sure you can find the right one for you ;)
You can do it in several ways that really depends on you and your app. Basically you can create a "Boarding" experience with ViewPager that will go thru the main screen of your app (with static images for example) where you explain the user what goes on in your app. The other way way is an interactive tutorial as the user already landed into your app - you can achieve this with something like Showcase (I'm pretty sure that there are libs on GitHub that are still maintained).
I would recommend Roman Nuriks Wizard Pager code on Github as a starting point. It's not so much a library as a sample code showing you how to do what you want.
The general approach is to use a ViewPager with some form of navigation buttons to move the user forwards and backwards through the pager Fragments.
