Android Adding more than one TextView to a TableRow Programmatically

I have a LinearLayout inside a FrameLayout for tab purposes. And I'm trying to add TableRow's to the LinearLayout in the code.
LinearLayout testLayout = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.testLayout);
TableRow tableRow = new TableRow(this);
tableRow.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
This gets my LinearLayout and creates a TableRow to the specifications I want. I know this part is working.
TextView textOne = new TextView(this);
textOne.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
textOne.setText("One");
TextView textTwo = new TextView(this);
textTwo.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
textTwo.setText("Two");
Here I make my two TextViews with no problem.
tableRow.addView(textOne);
tableRow.addView(textTwo);
testLayout.addView(tableRow, new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
Here is where I assume everything goes wrong. What happens is it only shows the textTwo. I don't know why it's not showing both of them in order like a normal TableRow would in XML. And I repeat, this must be done in code.
Please help, thank you.

Have you imported this import android.widget.TableRow.LayoutParams
Below code works for me
TableLayout tl = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.spreadsheet);
TableRow tr = new TableRow(this);
LayoutParams lp = new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
tr.setLayoutParams(lp);
TextView tvLeft = new TextView(this);
tvLeft.setLayoutParams(lp);
tvLeft.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
tvLeft.setText("OMG");
TextView tvCenter = new TextView(this);
tvCenter.setLayoutParams(lp);
tvCenter.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
tvCenter.setText("It");
TextView tvRight = new TextView(this);
tvRight.setLayoutParams(lp);
tvRight.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
tvRight.setText("WORKED!!!");
tr.addView(tvLeft);
tr.addView(tvCenter);
tr.addView(tvRight);
tl.addView(tr, new TableLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
tl.addView(tr, new TableLayout.LayoutParams(TableLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, TableLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

I think you want to create your TextView dynamically and should're getting error "removeView () parent." Here is a good solution for that:
TableView tlSkills = (TableView) findViewById(R.id.myTableView);
if(listSkills.size() > 0) {
TableRow tableRow = new TableRow(getContext());
int i = 0;
for (Skills s : listSkills) {
TextView textView = new TextView(getContext());
textView.setText("" + s.getName());
tableRow.addView(textView);
if(i > 0) {
tlSkills.removeView(tableRow);//this is to avoid the error I mentioned above.
}
tlSkills.addView(tableRow);
i++;
}
}

Align components in TableRow

First of all, all of my components have to be created at runtime. Well, I've got a TableLayout and inside this table view a bunch of TableRow. Inside every TableRow, there should be:
a Button at the right side having a given fixed height and a given fixed width
a TextView that fills the "rest" of the TableRow being allowed to wrap its text
The height of the TableRow should be the max of the Button height and the TableRow height. I either fail to set the Button height or only one of the elements (TableRow or Button) is displayed.
Maybe somebody could help me.
My current code:
// fetching the table layout
final TableLayout tl = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.ShoppingListTableLayout);
tl.removeAllViews();
// creating a single layout for every component
TableLayout.LayoutParams tableRowParams = new TableLayout.LayoutParams(
TableLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, TableLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
tableRowParams.setMargins(0, 1, 0, 1);
TableRow.LayoutParams bParams = new TableRow.LayoutParams(m_Resources
.getDimensionPixelSize(R.dimen.ButtonWidth), m_DefaultButtonHeight_px);
TableLayout.LayoutParams tvParams = new TableLayout.LayoutParams(
TableLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
Iterator<xy> itr = ...
while (itr.hasNext()) {
final xy = itr.next();
final TableRow tr = new TableRow(this);
tr.setLayoutParams(tableRowParams);
// 1. Child: TextView
final TextView CurrTxtView = new TextView(this);
CurrTxtView.setPadding(TV_PADDING_PX, TV_PADDING_PX, TV_PADDING_PX, TV_PADDING_PX);
CurrTxtView.setTextSize(TV_TEXT_SIZE);
CurrTxtView.setTypeface(m_Font);
CurrTxtView.setTextColor(TEXT_ACTIVE_COLOR);
CurrTxtView.setText(CurrItem.GetName());
CurrTxtView.setLayoutParams(tvParams);
tr.addView(CurrTxtView, CHILD_INDEX_TV);
// 2. Child Button ("Edit" für aktive, "Delete" für inaktive)
final Button MyButton = new Button(this);
MyButton.setTextColor(TEXT_ACTIVE_COLOR;
MyButton.setText(m_Resources.getString(CurrItem.GetIsActive() ? R.string.EditString
: R.string.DeleteString));
MyButton.setLayoutParams(bParams);
MyButton.setTypeface(m_Font);
MyButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View v)
{... }
});
tr.addView(MyButton, CHILD_INDEX_B);
tr.setPadding(m_TableRowPadding_px, 0, m_TableRowPadding_px, 0);
tr.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL);
tl.addView(tr, 0);
}
In this case only the buttons are displayed and even worse on the left side!

Assuming that you add the TextView and Button at the right indexes(CHILD_INDEX_TV and CHILD_INDEX_B are 0 and 1, although you could just drop them and just add the views in the correct order) a bad thing in your layout is the LayoutParams that you set to the TextView, the view that doesn't show up:
TableLayout.LayoutParams tvParams = new TableLayout.LayoutParams(
TableLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
First of all, the TextView is the child of a TableRow so you should set the TableRow.LayoutParams and not TableLayout.LayoutParams, secondly I don't understand why you suddenly decided to leave the TableLayout.LayoutParams and go for the android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams for the view's height. In the end it should be:
TableRow.LayoutParams tvParams = new TableRow.LayoutParams(
TableRow.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
To push the Button to the right you could simply stretch the column with the TextView by using:
tl.setColumnStretchable(0, true);

how to put a custom view in a table row in android?

I am creating table rows programmatically and i want to put a view that i created before in a row. Is there any way to do it?
for ( current = 0; current < rapor1.length; current++)
{
TableRow tr = new TableRow(this);
tr.setId(100+current);
tr.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(
LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
TextView f1 = new TextView(this);
f1.setId(200+current);
f1.setText(rapor1[current]);
f1.setTextColor(Color.BLACK);
f1.setWidth(100);
tr.addView(f1);
DrawView dv = new DrawView(this);
tr.addView(dv);
it should be working but something is wrong.

I think it may helps. Just change this string:
tr.setLayoutParams(new TableRow.LayoutParams(
TableRow.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
And of course you need to set LayoutParams to any view that you want to show on your screen

Android - Dynamically Adding TableRow to TableLayout using an existing TableRow layout

I'm trying to adding TableRows to a TableLayout, which is working fantastically. However, I'm running into some problems with layout parameters. The spacing between the TextViews within a TableRow isn't working out like I thought it would.
My current code looks as follows.
paymentTable = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.paymentTable);
for(i = 0; i < cursor.getCount(); i++) {
TableRow row = new TableRow(this);
TextView payAmount = new TextView(this);
payAmount.setText(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DatabaseHelper.KEY_AMOUNT)));
payAmount.setPadding(payAmount.getPaddingLeft(),
payAmount.getPaddingTop(),
textView.getPaddingRight(),
payAmount.getPaddingBottom());
TextView payDate = new TextView(this);
payDate.setText(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DatabaseHelper.KEY_DATE)));
row.addView(payDate);
row.addView(payAmount);
paymentTable.addView(row, new TableLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
cursor.moveToNext();
}
Afterwards, the TableLayout looks something along the lines of:
January$500
February$500
March$405
But I want it to look like:
January $500
February $500
March $405
To clarify things, I want each new TableRow and the TextViews it contains to inherit layout properties of an existing TableRow and TextView(s).

yawus this is a good tutorial will help you set the table layout
http://www.anotherandroidblog.com/2010/08/04/android-database-tutorial/
this is the xml layout
http://www.anotherandroidblog.com/2010/08/04/android-database-tutorial/6/
this is the activity code
http://www.anotherandroidblog.com/2010/08/04/android-database-tutorial/8/
TableRow tableRow= new TableRow(this);
ArrayList<Object> row = data.get(position);
TextView idText = new TextView(this);
idText.setText(row.get(0).toString());
tableRow.addView(idText);
TextView textOne = new TextView(this);
textOne.setText(row.get(1).toString());
tableRow.addView(textOne);
TextView textTwo = new TextView(this);
textTwo.setText(row.get(2).toString());
tableRow.addView(textTwo);
dataTable.addView(tableRow);

You need to add a RelativeLayout to each Table
TableRow row = new TableRow(this);
row.setId(tag);
// Creating a new RelativeLayout
RelativeLayout relativeLayout = new RelativeLayout(this);
// as the parent of that RelativeLayout is a TableRow you must use TableRow.LayoutParams
TableRow.LayoutParams rlp = new TableRow.LayoutParams(
TableRow.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
TableRow.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
rlp.setMargins(0, 0, 0, 0);
row.addView(relativeLayout, rlp);
Then you add your TextView to the RelativeLayout. Like this
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
TextView payAmount = new TextView(this);
//lp.setMargins(left, top, right, bottom)
lp.setMargins(0, 0, 16, 0);
lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_LEFT);
payAmount.setLayoutParams(lp);
relativeLayout.addView(payAmount);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
TextView payDate = new TextView(this);
//lp.setMargins(left, top, right, bottom)
lp.setMargins(0, 0, 16, 0);
lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_RIGHT);
payDate.setLayoutParams(lp);
relativeLayout.addView(payDate);
This is the way I handle positioning interface components within a table row.

Android: Programmatically Setting width of Child View using Percentage

I've read this article:
Setting width of Child View using Percentage
So far it works great if we set the weight and width in XML but I want to do it programmatically. I've a table in my layout (XML) and I am adding rows to it programmatically. In each row, I am adding 2 Text Views. I tried doing like this:
TableLayout tl = (TableLayout)findViewById(R.id.myTable);
for(int i = 0; i < nl.getLength(); i++){
NamedNodeMap np = nl.item(i).getAttributes();
TableRow trDetails = new TableRow(this);
trDetails.setBackgroundColor(Color.BLACK);
TextView tvInfo = new TextView(this);
tvInfo.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
tvInfo.setGravity(Gravity.LEFT);
tvInfo.setPadding(3, 3, 3, 3);
tvInfo.setTextSize(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 10);
tvInfo.setText("info");
TextView tvDetails = new TextView(this);
tvDetails.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
tvDetails.setGravity(Gravity.LEFT);
tvDetails.setPadding(3, 3, 3, 3);
tvDetails.setTextSize(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 10);
tvDetails.setText(np.getNamedItem("d").getNodeValue());
trDetails.addView(tvInfo, new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(0, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 0.50f));
trDetails.addView(tvDetails, new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(0, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 0.50f));
tl.addView(trDetails,new TableLayout.LayoutParams(
LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
}
but with no luck, it shows blank screen but if I do it in XML then it shows perfectly. Please help me sorting out this issue where I am doing wrong?
Thanks

You should use TableRow.LayoutParams and not Linearlayout.LayoutParams
trDetails.addView(tvInfo, new TableRow.LayoutParams(0, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 0.50));
trDetails.addView(tvDetails, new TableRow.LayoutParams(0, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 0.50));
