I want to move, in an anmiated way, a TextView in a LinearLayout into another LinearLayout.
However, I can't get it to move outside its container view (the LinearLayout it is in), it only moves inside this. Can someone help me to get this done? Also see the following image:
I'm using the NineOldAndroids library and have tried with the ViewPropertyAnimator:
animate(myTextView).setDuration(500).x(?).y(?);
And also with:
animate(myTextView).setDuration(500).translationX(?).translationY(?);
Instead of the '?' in above I want to be able to find out the position of the LinearLayout I want to drop the TextViews in. (If it's not possible to move to a certain View by stating the View-object).
What need to be done is to add "android:clipChildren="false"" to all the container layouts.

I have two layouts, manageLayout and mainLayout. They have constraints to the parent on all sides. I need in a one time have manageLayout on the top of mainLayout, and on the other time mainLayout on the top of manageLayout. Of course, there is sense in using visibility=gone on one of them, but i need one layout on the background of another. Problem: layout on the background handle events from top layout. How to make lower layout(and his elements) untouchable when another layout is risen?

Code sample, where i want to disable communications with lower layout: https://pastebin.com/PeL7u3YD (not only isSaveEnabled=false had no effect, also isEnabled=false had no effects too)
If you just need an explanation.
Once you've initialized both your views for mainLayout and manageLayout, you will need to set an empty onClickListener on both of them. Basically, layouts should get the click but do nothing. This way you can block the layout and widgets underneath the view on Front from getting clicked.
Now for for switching view to front maintain a boolean to know which view is on the front and on your button click set the other view bringToFront() (Or try some other ways mentioned here if you want) and don't forget to switch the boolean value.
Let me know if this works for you or you have any issues regarding this.
According to my perception, you can make lower layout setEnable(false). I hope it will work.
I would work with a piece of layout that isn't shown, the user must scroll to see what I have did. How can I do it? Can I join 2 different layout in one? I prefer to collocate item as I do with default layout. If it can help, I use Android studio. I prefer use elements without code, adding them from palette. An example :
You can use two different layout in main relative layout & whenever u want child layout just set visibility.
You will want to use a ScrollView for this. From the documentation:
Layout container for a view hierarchy that can be scrolled by the user, allowing it to be larger than the physical display.
I have a parent Linear Layout inside which there are two Linear Layout and a button.Each Linear Layout inside the parent Linear layout has two items in it. Items include a edit text and a spinner.what I want is to swap this two LinearLayout when i click the button.So my question is How do i do that programatically?. I am new to Android development so please help me to solve this.
On your outermost LinearLayout, try calling removeViewAt(0). This should remove the first LinearLayout. Then call addView() passing it the first LinearLayout.
One simple way would be to just make two layouts. Designed such that when you are ready to use the other one, switch layouts and then set that as the current view.
Or you could do so with various animation classes if trying to get fancy with it. If there is an exact visual effect you are trying to receive, perhaps provide a bit more on what you want.
As Karim mentioned, you can use setVisibilty() to View.GONE and the to View.VISIBLE.
But for a smooth swapping you are going to need to learn about Translate Animation.
Here a working example of how to swap two views (e.g. two LinearLayouts):
ViewGroup root = findViewById(R.id.my_root);
// assumption: root has 2 child views only
// swap left and right (or top and bottom)
View leftView = root.getChildAt(0);
root.removeViewAt(0);
root.addView(leftView);
// now the two child views of root are swapped
i'm using Eclipse to make an android app. I'm a beginner and i'm wondering how on earth I can place an image on my page where ever I want. It keeps locking in certain places due to alignments. Surely you must be able to click the image view and drag it into the desired place??
thanks
If you use RelativeLayout or FrameLayout as a container, you can place the inner Views wherever you want. They still have to be aligned somehow, but by changing the margins they can be on every position in the parent.
I have one absolute layout which contains many ImageViews. I have implemented Drog and Drop functions for all imageview. Now what happen when suppose i drag one imageview over another imageview then first view goes back side because it have been added first compaire to another one . I need that moving view always visible on top.
So can i solve this problem ?
Thanks in advance.
Probably the easiest way to avoid this is to call .bringToFront() on your ImageView when you begin your dragging code.
