Invisible TextView's start to be visible when scrolling ListView - android

I've got huge problem that I don't understand. I have got custom ListView with my own adapter. Each row in ListView has two TextViews - one is a title and the second one is invisible at start. It's going to be visible when there is something new in this item.
In my adapter I set title for every row and set second TextView to be visible when it should be. When I run my app it's fine, but when i scroll down and up the list almost every row is changing invisible TextView to be visible!
I don't know why, but I spaculate that this is something with convertView. Can anybody tell me what's going on?
My adapter:
public class MyListAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
#SuppressWarnings("unused")
private Activity activity;
private ArrayList<String> titles;
private LayoutInflater inflater;
public MyListAdapter (Activity activity, ArrayList<String> titles) {
this.activity = activity;
this.titles = titles;
inflater = (LayoutInflater)activity.getLayoutInflater();
}
public int getCount() {
return titles.size();
}
public Object getItem(int position) {
return position;
}
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
View vi=convertView;
if (convertView == null) {
vi = inflater.inflate(R.layout.wpis_list_row, null);
}
TextView title = (TextView)vi.findViewById(R.id.movie_title);
title.setText(titles.get(position));
String name = titles.get(position);
if (name.equals("Name 1") || name.equals("Name 2")
|| name.equals("Name 3")) {
TextView news = (TextView)vi.findViewById(R.id.new_sounds);
news.setVisible(0);
}
return vi;
}
}
and my layout for single row:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/LinearLayout1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/list_selector"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:padding="5dip" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/movie_title"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="9"
android:layout_marginLeft="#dimen/list_margin"
android:text="#string/entry"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textSize="22sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/new_sounds"
android:layout_weight="2"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:textColor="#8C1717"
android:textSize="13sp"
android:text="#string/news"
android:visibility="invisible" />
</LinearLayout>

Sometimes you are setting the visibility of the text view as visible, based on some if condition . Make sure to change the visibility to gone in the else part.I hope this work . Also you are assigning view view= convertview and then doing if( convertview = null) . Assign the view to convert view in the else part of this check.

To make a View invisible in its layout, use android:visibility attribute set to gone or invisible depending on what you want to do.
Programmatically, to change visibility, call the View.setVisibility(VISIBILITY_YOU_WANT) method. There are some constants in View class you can use: View.GONE , View.VISIBLE , View.INVISIBLE.
BTW, read this post to better understand the ListView recycling.

Android custom ArrayAdapter rendering Objects in list, not values

I'm trying to bind a custom layout (a LinearLayout containing two TextViews) to a Spinner. I subclassed ArrayAdapter (mostly) correctly. Selecting an item in the Spinner calls getView() correctly, setting the LinearLayout's TextViews' values correctly. The problem is the initial display of the items in the Spinner (when clicking on the Spinner) just shows Objects; not the TextViews they should be displaying. Only AFTER clicking on one of the Objects does the Spinner correctly set the TextViews using my custom adapter's getView() method. Here's the custom adapter class:
public class BusRouteAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<BusRoute> {
...
public BusRouteAdapter(Context context, int resource, int textViewId, ArrayList<BusRoute> routes) {
super(context, resource, textViewId, routes);
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
BusRoute route = getItem(position);
if (convertView == null) {
convertView = LayoutInflater.from(getContext()).inflate(R.layout.bus_route, parent, false);
}
TextView tvBusRoute = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.tvBusRoute);
TextView tvBusRouteNumber = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.tvBusRouteNumber);
tvBusRoute.setText(route.routeName);
tvBusRoute.setTag(route.route);
tvBusRouteNumber.setText(route.route);
if (!route.routeColor.equals("")) {
tvBusRouteNumber.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor(route.routeColor));
}
return convertView;
}
}
Here's the layout that is to be used for each Spinner list item (bus_route.xml):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:weightSum="1">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tvBusRouteNumber"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.25"
android:padding="8dp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tvBusRoute"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.75"
android:padding="8dp" />
</LinearLayout>
And in my Activity, I'm setting the adapter to a properly-populated list of BusRoute objects:
busRouteAdapter = new BusRouteAdapter(getBaseContext(), R.layout.bus_route, R.id.tvBusRoute, arrayOfBusRoutes);
routesSpinner.setAdapter(busRouteAdapter);
It does seem strange that I need to pass the Layout id (R.layout.bus_route) AND one of the TextViews contained in that Layout (R.id.tvBusRoute).
Here's what is rendered when clicking on the Spinner:
But if I click one of the Objects, getView() is called, and the selected Layout and TextViews are rendered properly (apparently I selected "GMU - Pentagon"):
What am I missing to get the Spinner's popup list to display ALL my bus route items rendered correctly?
I think you need to override getDropDownView to deal with spinners
#Override
public View getDropDownView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
BusRoute route = getItem(position);
if (convertView == null) {
convertView = LayoutInflater.from(getContext()).inflate(R.layout.bus_route, parent, false);
}
TextView tvBusRoute = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.tvBusRoute);
TextView tvBusRouteNumber = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.tvBusRouteNumber);
tvBusRoute.setText(route.routeName);
tvBusRoute.setTag(route.route);
tvBusRouteNumber.setText(route.route);
if (!route.routeColor.equals("")) {
tvBusRouteNumber.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor(route.routeColor));
}
return convertView;
}

Custom listview is not showing and getView is not called

I have problem that my list view is not showing and the getView method never invoked
here is my list view inside the onCreate in the MainActivity
l = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listvv);
CustomAdapter adapter = new CustomAdapter(MainActivity.this, maainimg);
l.setAdapter(adapter);
activity_main.xml

</com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
and here is my CustomAdapter Class it is inside the MainActivity
public class CustomAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> {
int[] img;
Activity activity;
ImageButton imageButton;
public CustomAdapter(Activity act, int [] images) {
super(act, R.layout.custom_row);
this.activity=act;
this.img=images;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
Log.d("getView","Called!");
View row = convertView;
if(row==null){
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) activity
.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
row = inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_row, parent, false);
imageButton = (ImageButton) row.findViewById(R.id.preview);}
imageButton.setImageResource(img[position]);
Log.d("added",position+"");
if (getSelectedcolor() == 0) {
imageButton.setColorFilter(Color.RED);
setSelectedcolor(Color.RED);
} else {
imageButton.setColorFilter(Color.parseColor(colorToHexString(getSelectedcolor())));
}
return row;
}
}
and the custom_row.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:src="#drawable/ic_1_red"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:background="#drawable/roundedbutton"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Update
here is my array maainimg its not empty
maainimg = new int[]{R.drawable.ic_1_red,R.drawable.ic_2_red,R.drawable.ic_3_red,R.drawable.ic_4_red,R.drawable.ic_5_red,R.drawable.ic_6_red,
R.drawable.ic_7,R.drawable.ic_8,R.drawable.ic_8,R.drawable.ic_9,R.drawable.ic_10,R.drawable.ic_11,R.drawable.ic_12
,R.drawable.ic_13,R.drawable.ic_14,R.drawable.ic_15,R.drawable.ic_16,R.drawable.ic_17,R.drawable.ic_18,R.drawable.ic_19,R.drawable.ic_20,
R.drawable.ic_21,R.drawable.ic_22,R.drawable.ic_23,R.drawable.ic_24,R.drawable.ic_25};
While you call super(act, R.layout.custom_row); (without passing the objects), you need to override getCount() method, otherwise your adapter can't figure out how many items you have, and this is why there is no call of getView() method.
#Override
public int getCount(){
return img.length;
}
The first problem I see is your Layout.
<ListView
android:id="#+id/listvv"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:divider="#b4be"
android:dividerHeight="2dp"></ListView>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/ad_holder"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
Your ListView has no room left because the bottom linear layout is using FILL_PARENT (which is deprecated btw, use MATCH_PARENT instead).
Try making your ListView height (and width) to be both MATCH_PARENT. And then deal with the "Ad".
You could have the LinearLayout replaced by a RelativeLayout and have the Ad pin at the bottom of its parent and below the listview.
Second: Why are you using an ArrayAdapter<String> if you're internally using an array of int.
Third: since you're using the wrong type of adapter, you're not correctly implementing it, you need to override more methods (getCount() for example), to tell the underlying adapter: hey, this is the number of items we have.
Since you're not using the provided array of strings, but your custom array of ints that you pass during construction, try overriding getCount() and return the size of your int array instead.
I this there is a issue in your Adapter class, Try this, But keep in mind that there are cleaner ways of writing this same code,
public class CustomAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Integer> {
int[] img;
Context context;
ImageButton imageButton;
public CustomAdapter(Context context, Integer [] images) {
super(context, R.layout.custom_row, images);
this.context=context;
this.img=images;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
Log.d("getView","Called!");
View row = convertView;
if(row==null){
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) activity
.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
row = inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_row, parent, false);
}
imageButton = (ImageButton) row.findViewById(R.id.preview);
imageButton.setImageResource(img[position]);
Log.d("added",position+"");
if (getSelectedcolor() == 0) {
imageButton.setColorFilter(Color.RED);
setSelectedcolor(Color.RED);
} else {
imageButton.setColorFilter(Color.parseColor(colorToHexString(getSelectedcolor())));
}
return row;
}
}

Listview create all elements instead of visible ones

I have an issue which I didn't found any solutions on stackoverflow (or anywhere else so far).
Summary :
I have scrollview and inside of it a ListView with visibility gone (Can switch with a TextView).
When I set the adapter content, in my activity the onScroll get call with 4 visibles Item but the getView of the adapter get call for the whole dataSet (181 items) which bring a lot of performance issues / imageref_ashmem create failed ... (Of course remove image loading remove fail of creation but well :D)
=== Activity ===
Result of Activity in onScroll
firstVisibleItem 0
visibleItemCount 4
totalItemCount 181
=== Layout extract ===
<ScrollView
android:id="#+id/UserProfileView_ScrollView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:fillViewport="true"
android:background="#00FFFFFF" >

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:divider="#color/unactivatedLightGray"
android:dividerHeight="1dp"
android:listSelector="#android:color/transparent"
android:visibility="gone" />
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
</ScrollView>
The height of the BottomLayout is set to 3/4 of the width of the screen programmatically.
=== Adapter ===
public class CommonAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
public List<Common> list;
private LayoutInflater inflater;
private AQuery aq;
public CommonAdapter(Context context, List<Common> list) {
this.inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
this.list = list;
this.aq = new AQuery(context);
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return list.size();
}
#Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
return list.get(position);
}
#Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
private class ViewHolder {
ImageView thumbImg;
TextView name;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
ViewHolder holder;
if (convertView == null) {
holder = new ViewHolder();
convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.list_view_item, null);
holder.thumbImg = (ImageView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.CommonCell_Thumb);
holder.name = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.CommonCell_Name);
convertView.setTag(holder);
} else {
holder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
}
Common obj = list.get(position);
if (list.get(position).getPicture() != null)
aq.id(holder.thumbImg).image(obj.getPicture());
else
aq.id(holder.thumbImg).image(Util.Thumb(list.get(position).getId()), options);
holder.name.setText(obj.getName());
return convertView;
}
}
EDIT : Every time I scroll, the whole dataset it parse again, so 181 call to getView.
I assume your aq.id(stuff) loads an image asyncronous.
If so, check your layout/list_view_item.xml it's height is probably set to wrap_content and the ImageView also has no fixed height. Meaning while loading the image this row has a zero or very small height. Therefore all 182 rows fit into the ListView at once and getView() gets called for every single one.
Set a fixed height or minHeight for every row or the ImageView the ListView will only call getView() for as many rows fit into the ListView.
Hope this helps
I fixed the issue by set the ListView to an arbitrary Height.
<ListView
android:id="#+id/UserProfileView_MoreDetails_ListView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="1080dp"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:footerDividersEnabled="false"
android:divider="#color/unactivatedLightGray"
android:dividerHeight="1dp"
android:listSelector="#android:color/transparent"
android:visibility="gone" />
If ListView or RecyclerView used in ScrollView, All items will initiate at the same time.

Trying to make listview items non-clickable

I have listview that I have populated into a alertDialog When the alertDialog displays the user are able to click on these items in the listview and that is when the problem comes in. I do not want the user to be able to click on the items in the listview and I have already tried adding this to my xml layout android:clickable="false" and android:focusable="false" but I am still getting the same results. Can somebody assist me with this issue that having.
Here is my base adapter class:
public class MyAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
final String[] listItemsFirstRow = {"Item1","Item2"};
final String[] listItemSecondRow = {"Item1", "Item2"};
#Override
public int getCount() {
return listItemsFirstRow.length;
}
#Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
return null;
}
#Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
if(convertView == null)
{
LayoutInflater layoutInflater = (LayoutInflater) parent.getContext().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
convertView = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.twolinelistview, null);
}
((TextView)convertView.findViewById(R.id.text1)).setText( listItemsFirstRow[position]);
((TextView)convertView.findViewById(R.id.text2)).setText( listItemSecondRow[position]);
return convertView;
}
}
And here is my xml layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:paddingLeft="15dip"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<TextView
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
android:id="#+id/text1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clickable="false"
android:focusable="false" />
<TextView
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:textColor="?android:attr/textColorSecondary"
android:id="#+id/text2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clickable="false"
android:focusable="false" />
</LinearLayout>
Modify your BaseAdapter to override isEnabled to tell the ListView that the items aren't clickable.
Example:
#Override
public boolean isEnabled(int position) {
return false;
}
Note that the documentation says this will do exactly what you want:
Returns true if the item at the specified position is not a separator. (A separator is a non-selectable, non-clickable item)
Try setting android:clickable="false" and android:longClickable="false" for your ListView in XML, or you can set it before you set the adapter as well. That should be enough to disable it, but if not android:focusable="false" and android:enabled="false" should definitely do it.
If you are just trying to prevent items from being highlighted another option is to change how it displays selected items and ignoring the events. One way that was suggested in an older question is:
android:listSelector="#android:color/transparent"
android:cacheColorHint="#android:color/transparent"

Android: button showing up multiple times in list view

I trying to write code to highlight the selected value of the list with "Next" button at the bottom of the layout. But for some reason, after every list item, "next" button also shows up. Can someone please help me resolve this problem?

Thanks in advance

Selected Adaptor class:
public class SelectedAdapter extends ArrayAdapter{
// used to keep selected position in ListView
private int selectedPos = -1; // init value for not-selected
public SelectedAdapter(Context context, int textViewResourceId,
List objects) {
super(context, textViewResourceId, objects);
}
public void setSelectedPosition(int pos){
selectedPos = pos;
// inform the view of this change
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
public int getSelectedPosition(){
return selectedPos;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
View v = convertView;
// only inflate the view if it's null
if (v == null) {
LayoutInflater vi = (LayoutInflater)this.getContext().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
v = vi.inflate(R.layout.activity_main, null);
}
// get text view
TextView label = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.txtExample);
// change the row color based on selected state
if(selectedPos == position){
label.setBackgroundColor(Color.CYAN);
}else{
label.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
}
label.setText(this.getItem(position).toString());
/*
// to use something other than .toString()
MyClass myobj = (MyClass)this.getItem(position);
label.setText(myobj.myReturnsString());
*/
return(v);
}
}
change your listview in xml as like this
<ListView
android:id="#+id/listExample"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"//===== set maximum heighthere
android:layout_marginBottom="50dp"// === give some space at bottom so that buttons will appear
android:background="#CCCCCC"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
/>
But for some reason, after every list item, "next" button also shows up.
The ListView's row layout is determined by the layout you inflate in getView() or pass to your Adapter's super class if you haven't overridden getView(). Double check this layout and remove the unwanted code.
Addition
The layout for your ListView's items only needs to be one TextView since you only want to display a phrase in each. However you are currently passing your entire main layout, this creates the Buttons, an unused ListView, and everthing else in every row...
Instead use android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1 in getView(), of course you'll need to change the id you pass to findViewById() as well:
if (v == null) {
LayoutInflater vi = (LayoutInflater)this.getContext().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
v = vi.inflate(android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, null);
}
// get text view
TextView label = (TextView)v.findViewById(android.R.id.text1);
