Hiding multiple Views before saving - Android - android

I am overlapping couple of view's dynamically in my app over a bitmap. I would like to delete those view's before saving the bitmap to gallery. Below in the function which adds view's on my bitmap
public void add()
{
relLayout.addView(newRect);
relLayout.addView(newSpeech);
relLayout.addView(editImgv);
relLayout.addView(resizeImgv);
}
There is a button on pressing it the above add() function gets called and all those views get added over my bitmap again.
Before saving the bitmap I would like to delete all editImgv and resizeImgv which were added
over my bitmap.
Any ideas on how to do it?
Thanks in advance :)

I have resolved it by using Vector arrays - I placed all the 'resizeImgv' and 'editImgv' image views which I am adding dynamically in a vector array of type 'ImageView' and when I am about to save I am just setting their visibility to 'GONE' one by one. It was a simple solution in the end :)
//Global
Vector<ImageView> imgv = new Vector<ImageView>();
....
//Adding views to my vector array
public void setImageViewArray(ImageView imgview){
imgv.add(imgview);
}
.....
//when I am about to save
for(int i = 0; i < imgv.size(); i++ ){
if(imgv.get(i).getVisibility() == View.VISIBLE){
imgv.get(i).setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
}

android: one click listener on many imageviews in layout

I have the following scenario:
In a layout, I have imageviews aligned horizontally and vertically as shown in image.
First, which layout should be used for this purpose? RelativeLayout or FrameLayout? ListView inside the layout?
Also, instead of writing setOnClickListener for every imageview, how can I write just one click listener to get the clicked imageview?
A GridView is perfect for this. For more information on GridView, look here.
As for your onClickListener question: there is no easy way to do this, but what you can do is something like this:
Have an array containing every ImageView id like so:
public static final int[] IMAGE_VIEWS = {R.id.imageView1, R.id.imageView2, R.id.imageView3 /*etc*/}; //Make sure to list from the first imageview to the last image view in correct order
Define an onClickListener
private View.OnClickListener imageViewListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
for (int i = 0; i < IMAGE_VIEWS.length; i++) {
if (v.getId() == IMAGE_VIEWS[i]) {
doSomethingWithImageViewClick(i); //if ImageView 4 was clicked, variable 'i' will be 3 (because arrays start at index = 0).
}
}
}
}
Set the onClickListeners for all your imageViews:
final ImageView view1 = (ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
view1.setOnClickListener(imageViewListener);
//etc
Use 'GridView' in the layout and use 'setOnItemClickListener' to handle click events,
You can find more details in below link
GridView.
GridView can achieve the effect. I think you can look at this Grid View.

ViewFlipper change image dynamically

I have a task to show 5 images periodically. I'm using ViewFlipper for this. The images are loaded dynamically from gallery or camera.
I got stuck with modifying the image source at runtime i.e user should be able to change the current image he is viewing.
I can get the current index, now I want to change the image source from gallery at run time
// code to initialise the flipper
vf_profile_slide = (ViewFlipper) this.findViewById(R.id.profile_slide_vf);
int gallery_grid_Images[]={R.drawable.image1,R.drawable.image2};
for(int i=0;i<gallery_grid_Images.length;i++)
{
setFlipperImage(gallery_grid_Images[i]);
}
/* tempBmp = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imgPath);
addNewImageToFlipper(mContext, tempBmp);
*/
vf_profile_slide.setAutoStart(true);
vf_profile_slide.setFlipInterval(5000);
vf_profile_slide.startFlipping();
//On button click i m feteching the image index
PROFILE_INDEX = vf_profile_slide.getDisplayedChild();
//calling this function...
private void addImageToFlipperAt(Context mContext,int index,Bitmap bm)
{
ImageView iv_new = (ImageView) findViewById(vf_profile_slide.getChildAt(index).getId());
iv_new.setImageBitmap(bm);
vf_profile_slide.addView(iv_new,index);
}
the new image is added successfully.... but i want the current image at that index gone... that is not happening .... tell me where i m going wrong
Is this possible?

android: retain image in display once loaded from url?

i am retriving around 20 images url from an xml , and appearing them in gridview.
thing going nice except one.
when i scroll down new images start loading , but when i again scrolls up. the previously loaded images again stars loading .
how can i resolve this bug. the previously loaded image should be retained in the layout , why it is not retaining itself .
I am using the adapter extends the BaseAdapter to view the images
Gridview like any other views that inherit AdapterView only uses the amount of views that you see on the screen. So when you scroll your views going to be reused. The Adapter's responsibility is to reassign the content to the views.
So, you need to cache your bitmaps. There is a very nice tutorial about this on the Android developer side.
http://developer.android.com/training/displaying-bitmaps/cache-bitmap.html
(I uses grid view in the example)
Every time you scroll, getView() method of the adapter is called.
So every time one view come in to the screen is built in the getView() method.
You build the new view in that method, I suppose you download the image when that method is called, then one solution is caching the images. If you download few images and they are small size, a simply Map with key url and value bitmap solves the problem, if not, use database.
Every time getView() is called, check first if image is in cache, if image is in cache use it to build the view, if not download it.
use LoaderImageView from this blog http://blog.blundell-apps.com/imageview-with-loading-spinner/ & add following function
public void setImageDrawable(final MyGridViewItem obj) {
mDrawable = null;
if(obj.mDrawable != null){
mDrawable = obj.mDrawable
imageLoadedHandler.sendEmptyMessage(COMPLETE);
return;
}
mSpinner.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
mImage.setVisibility(View.GONE);
new Thread(){
public void run() {
try {
mDrawable = getDrawableFromUrl(imageUrl);
obj.mDrawable = mDrawable;
imageLoadedHandler.sendEmptyMessage(COMPLETE);
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
imageLoadedHandler.sendEmptyMessage(FAILED);
} catch (IOException e) {
imageLoadedHandler.sendEmptyMessage(FAILED);
}
};
}.start();
}

Accessing array of imageviews with for loop

I am developing an app which has 9 image views in a 3x3 matrix.
I want to change their image if a user clicks them.
So tat requires linking 9 ids and 9 set on click listeners
Is it possible to access them using a for loop like this
public int[] imv= {R.id.im0, R.id.im1, R.id.im2, R.id.im3,R.id.im4, R.id.im5, R.id.im6, R.id.im7,R.id.im8};//Loading ids into array imv
for(int i=0;i<imv.length;i++)
{
ImageView im[i] = (ImageView) findViewById(imv[i]);//Attaching ids
}
for(int i=0;i<imv.length;i++)
{
im[i].setOnClickListener
}
I am getting an error with im[i]. But if I remove i I get an object im which is a collection of imageviews. How can I access the individual imageviews and set onclicklisteners?
I think it will be better to go for GridView refer to this example
http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-gridview.html
you can write your logic in getView method using imageView.setOnClickListener
//scope of the im[i] will end in the first for loop
for(int i=0;i<imv.length;i++)
{
ImageView im[i] = (ImageView) findViewById(imv[i]);//Attaching ids
im[i].setOnClickListener(this);
}
I think the problem is that "im" is declared inside the for loop (making it local to the for loop only).. Declare "im" outside the loop, then just define it inside.
try:
ImageView im[] = new ImageView im[imv.length];
for(int i=0;i<imv.length;i++)
{
im[i] = (ImageView) findViewById(imv[i]);//Attaching ids
}
Note: I've forgotten how to properly declare an array. Just confirm it elsewhere.. :D

Android: how to change image each touch

I would like to change an image each time the user touches the screen. I would like to have user tap the screen and the image changes each time and at the 5th touch it would loop back to the original image with added text.
I have looked at
How would I set an ImageButton to change only when my finger is touching it
I have tried both IUevents and StateListdrawable. I couldn't figure out how to actually change the image after each touch (anywhere in the screen).
And why can't you use the normal ImageView? Do this:
ArrayList<Integer> picList = new ArrayList<Integer>();
// populate the list with the int value of the pictures in drawable.
picList.add(R.drawable.apple);
picList.add(R.drawable.horse);
//etc
int touches = 0;
int loop = 0;
ImageView picture = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.your_picture);
picture.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if (touches < 4)
v.setBackgroundDrawable(picList.get(touches));
touches++;
} else {
touches = 0;
loop = 1;
v.setBackgroundDrawable(picList.get(touches));
}
if (loop = 1){
// Create a TextView and set the text or make it in the xml with Visible="Gone" and make is visible here.
}
});
you need to create the Custom class which extends the ImageView now display this imageview to whole screen.
> First store the path/location of images into an array/list etc.
> In custom class implement the onTouch event.
> create the counter object in this custom class.
> now in onTouch check in down event that check the counter value with array size if counter==array.length()-1 then set counter as 0 otherwise increment in counter object.
> now get the path of the image and set into the imageview as background
