I know that it may be a silly question...but I'm new to android...I have an gridview layout in my project and I used "android developer" code for writing the code...so the xml code of layout is like this :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<GridView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/gridview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:columnWidth="90dp"
android:numColumns="auto_fit"
android:verticalSpacing="10dp"
android:horizontalSpacing="10dp"
android:stretchMode="columnWidth"
android:gravity="center"
/>
now I want to add a button to the gridview but I can't do it with drag and drop...I've tried to write the xml code of adding button but I've got this error :
"Error in an XML file: aborting build."
can anyone help me with this problem ?
If you want the Button to be below the GridView, use something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.google.ads"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:gravity="center"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<GridView
android:id="#+id/gridFriends"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="0dip"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:clipChildren="true"
android:columnWidth="100dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:numColumns="auto_fit"
android:scrollbars="none"
android:stretchMode="columnWidth" >
</GridView>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:paddingBottom="5dp"
android:paddingLeft="9dp"
android:paddingRight="9dp"
android:paddingTop="5dp" >
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/imgbtnDemo"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom|center"
android:background="#null"
android:gravity="center"
android:src="#drawable/ic_contact_picture" >
</ImageButton>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
If you want a Button in every cell in the GridView, you will have to use a Custom GridView that uses an Adapter. An exmaple XML snippet for the custom cell in the GridView:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/mainContainer"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:padding="5dp" >
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="100dp"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:gravity="center" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imgProfilePicture"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
android:src="#null" />
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/imgbtnDemo"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom|center"
android:background="#null"
android:gravity="center"
android:src="#drawable/ic_contact_picture" >
</ImageButton>
</FrameLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
NOTE: In the XMLS snippets in the post, I am using ImageButton's. Change them and any necessary attributes to that of a Button. It is merely an illustration. You should be able to connect the dots though. ;-)
if you are familiar with the concept of custom ListViews, with a few modifications, you will be able to implement a custom GridView too. If you are not familiar with custom ListViews or GridViews, follow this tutorial to see how to create a custom GridView: http://www.coderzheaven.com/2012/02/29/custom-gridview-in-android-a-simple-example/.
Or use this Google Search for more tutorials on custom GridView's.
And this is a link to an answer of mine on SO. It has the complete solution. Use what logic suits your purpose.

Here i have used a gridview but it is not changing according to the screen size.I think there is a problem with height.the xml used for gridview is given below.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#drawable/bg"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<GridView
android:id="#+id/gridView1"
android:numColumns="3"
android:gravity="center"
android:paddingTop="20dp"
android:horizontalSpacing="10dp"
android:verticalSpacing="10dp"
android:stretchMode="columnWidth"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_above="#+id/linearLayout1"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
>
</GridView>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/linearLayout1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<com.assuretech.ku.HorizontalMenuBar
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
From what I can see. You need to close the RelativeLayout at the end. I've included my screenshot of your code with it closed. I changed the background to red to see the text.
I guess you are looking for
numColumns = "auto_fit"
as GridView attribute
Firstly you must be using some layout to put your gridview in. Do the following:
Make height and width of the layout to fill parent:
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
then, set height and width of your gridview to fill_parent as well.
Well, this is just a supposed solution that you might have been working this way
Hope this works for you.
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="30dp">
<GridView
android:id="#+id/grid_images"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:columnWidth="100dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:horizontalSpacing="10dp"
android:numColumns="auto_fit"
android:stretchMode="columnWidth"
android:verticalSpacing="15dp">
</GridView>
</LinearLayout>
I need to implement shifted column in gridview looks like this
but only with two columns.
I have tried two use different types in adapter, but it have not solved my task
it seems to me that I will have to extend gridview and ovverride onDraw method but maybe already exists another solutions or libraries?
This can be done through Layout XML file.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/header"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="5dp" >
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<GridView
android:id="#+id/grid"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_below="#id/header"
android:cacheColorHint="#0000"
android:columnWidth="100dp"
android:horizontalSpacing="5dp"
android:numColumns="2"
android:stretchMode="columnWidth"
android:verticalSpacing="5dp" />
</RelativeLayout>
I have GridView that displayes image from a JSON
[Image]
My xml for grid view is ::
restaurant_desc_photos.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<GridView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/listview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:numColumns="auto_fit"
android:columnWidth="90dp"
android:horizontalSpacing="10dp"
android:verticalSpacing="10dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:stretchMode="columnWidth" >
</GridView>
grid_view_image.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/flag"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:background="#000000"
android:padding="1dp" />
</RelativeLayout>
How to make make changes so that i could reflect my output as ::
Horizontal scrolling is also important here
Any IDEAS
Thanks
Only way to do it is use two way grid view library use this following link for library
https://github.com/jess-anders/two-way-gridview
1) add that library to the project
2) change the package names accordingly in the xml layout where you will be inserting the horizontal scroll view
snippet:
<com.future.android.app.library.slidinggridview.TwoWayGridView
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#id/fragment_product_twgv_grid"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:visibility="gone"
app:cacheColorHint="#ffe8e8e8"
app:columnWidth="300dp"
app:horizontalSpacing="10.0dip"
app:numColumns="auto_fit"
app:numRows="2"
app:rowHeight="290dp"
android:fastScrollEnabled="true"
app:scrollDirectionLandscape="horizontal"
app:scrollDirectionPortrait="vertical"
app:stretchMode="spacingWidthUniform"
app:verticalSpacing="10.0dip" />
you can set the number of columns accordingly and width and height too.
I followed the Hello grid view turtorial at here. I was wondering is there a way to add buttons along side the images in a grid view? if so how can i do it?
You could try something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/RelativeLayout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<GridView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/gridview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="300dp"
android:columnWidth="90dp"
android:numColumns="auto_fit"
android:verticalSpacing="10dp"
android:horizontalSpacing="10dp"
android:stretchMode="columnWidth"
android:gravity="center"
/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/bAdd"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Add RES"
android:layout_below="#+id/gridview" />
</RelativeLayout>
Hope that helps.
I have playing around with my XML layout for what seems like weeks now, and i just cannot get it to work how i would like it to.
I would like the admob ad to always been visible at the bottom of the screen, I have tried to do it like this, but because the gridview is graphically intensive i think the admob ad is being left behind somewhat.(It only shows 30% of the time, roughly)
Hopefully someone will be able to show me how to lay it out correctly. I.E Force the ad at the bottom of the screen!
Thanks
Lucy

Use Relative Layout as parent layout instead of linear layout and use android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" to the relative layout of addview
Try something like this. You only need one RelativeLayout and then layout the different views according to each other,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<ImageView android:id="#+id/ImageView03"
android:src="#drawable/banner_gallery"
android:layout_height="60dp"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"/>
<GridView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/gridview" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:columnWidth="90dp"
android:numColumns="auto_fit" android:verticalSpacing="7dp"
android:horizontalSpacing="7dp" android:stretchMode="columnWidth"
android:layout_below="#id/ImageView03"
android:layout_above="#id/ad"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"/>
<com.admob.android.ads.AdView
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:id="#+id/ad"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
