OK I've searched and seen similar issues, tried them and no avail. I have a listView with some elements and I want to click on one element and display a detail somewhere else.
This is my listView
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_pedidos);
ListView listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.actualStoresList);
Model.initialize();
Vector<String> values = Model.stores;
listView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapter, View view, int position,
long id) {
Object o = adapter.getItemAtPosition(position);
String str_text = o.toString();
Log.i("", "I have selected this: " + str_text);
}
});
CustomStringAdapter adapter = new CustomStringAdapter(this, R.layout.my_list_layout, R.id.list_content, values);
listView.setAdapter(adapter);
}
This is the my_list_layout.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/list_content"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_margin="4dip"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="20dp"/>
</LinearLayout>
The list gets displayed correctly. When I click on an element of the list (A textView) it "steals" the click event so nothing happens (the onItemClickListener is attached to the listView, not the TextView).
The textView has an small margin where, if careful, I can click just behind it, in fact, touching the listView. In this case, the event gets fired ok and I see the log.
I've tried to set the TextView android:focusable="false" but still, the TextView is "above" of the listView and always gets the click events.
How can I either make the TextView "transparent" so it actually clicks on the listView, or add a onclickListener to the TextView so I can handle its events?
Thanks!

Setting clickable property of TextView to false should solve this problem. Try this:
<TextView
android:id="#+id/list_content"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_margin="4dip"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="20dp"
android:clickable="false" />
To make items not focusable, do this:
listView.setItemsCanFocus(false);

I think this will solve your issue.
Also make sure the
android:textIsSelectable
property is not set to true.

I'd like to implement a Listview in android in which I have the possibility to enable a delete mode, in which the user can select the entries to delete. It should be similar to the message application in android.
I already have a ListActivity which has an icon on the left and text on the right side. I now like to add a CheckBox floating on the right side of the list entry. The ListActivity is listed in another question by a friend of mine: android listactivity background color .
The layout should be:
Left Picture
Center List item
Right Checkbox for delete selection
How can I achieve this? Is there a standard ListView item in the framework I could use?
I guess you want a CheckBox to appear(only) when is time to delete items from the ListView. Assuming you use the layout from the other question:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="5dp"
android:background="#color/darkbluelogo" >
<ImageView android:id="#+id/list_image"
android:layout_width="48dip"
android:layout_height="48dip"
android:contentDescription="#id/list_image"
/>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:padding="5dp"
android:background="#color/darkbluelogo"
android:scrollingCache="false"
android:cacheColorHint="#00000000" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/title"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#+id/title" >
</TextView>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/datetime"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#+id/datetime" >
</TextView>
</LinearLayout>
<CheckBox
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:visibility="gone" />
</LinearLayout>
When the ListView starts the CheckBox will not be present and the content TextViews will occupy all the space. Add a flag in the getView method of your adapter that will signal that the CheckBox must be shown(here you will set the CheckBox's visibility from the layout to visible). When its time to delete items modify the flag and then call notifyDataSetChanged() so the ListView redraws its children, this time with the CheckBox present.
Note:
You'll have to store the status of the CheckBoxes yourself.
First of all you need a custom layout for your list entries. A simple RelativeLayout including an ImageView , a TextView and a CheckBox should be enough.
Then you might want to build your own custom adapter which can extend BaseAdapter (or SimpleAdapter or CursorAdapter or ArrayAdapter or...). The adapter will bind the list's data to your custom layout. If for example your data is contained in a Cursor it will look like:
private class MyCustomAdapter extends CursorAdapter {
public MyCustomAdapter(Context context) {
super(context, null);
}
#Override
public View newView(Context context, Cursor cursor, ViewGroup parent) {
//Return a list item view
return getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.my_custom_list_item_layout, parent, false);
}
#Override
public void bindView(View view, Context context, Cursor cursor) {
//Get views from layout
final ImageView imageView = (ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.list_item_image);
final TextView textView = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.list_item_text);
final CheckBox checkBox = (CheckBox) view.findViewById(R.id.list_item_checkbox);
//Get data from cursor
final String text = cursor.getString(...);
//Add listener to the checkbox
checkBox.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {...});
//Bind data
textView.setText(text);
}
}
I am using listview to display three textviews(values for these text views where come from database) and one checkbox. I would like to store the checkbox state when ever the user clicks the checkbox and display it when they came back. But, i am new to android development and i haven't got any idea how to do it. I have tried adding checkbox to the list view, but the onitemclick is disabled.Below are the code,
This is the cursor to retrieve values from database and list in listview,
Cursor yearcursor = db.paymentall(this);
String[] yearfrom = new String[]
{ PaymentAppDataBase.REQUESTEDDATE,PaymentAppDataBase.PAYMENTNAME,PaymentAppDataBase.AMOUNT };
int[] yearto = new int[] { R.id.Date,R.id.Name,R.id.Amount };
SimpleCursorAdapter yearadapter =
new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.listview, yearcursor, yearfrom, yearto);
setListAdapter(yearadapter);
amount.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position,
long id) {
Cursor cursor = (Cursor) parent.getItemAtPosition(position);
String toaddressreview = cursor.getString(4);
String subjectreview = cursor.getString(5);
String emailbodyreview = cursor.getString(6);
Intent todayreview = new Intent(ReviewPayment.this,ReviewandResend.class);
todayreview.putExtra("toadd", toaddressreview);
todayreview.putExtra("subjectreveiew", subjectreview);
todayreview.putExtra("emailbody", emailbodyreview);
startActivity(todayreview);
}
});
Mt xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:paddingTop="4dip"
android:paddingBottom="6dip"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<TextView android:id="#+id/Date"
android:layout_width="100dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="14sp"/>
<TextView android:id="#+id/Name"
android:layout_width="120dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="2"
android:scrollbarAlwaysDrawHorizontalTrack="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/Date"/>
<TextView android:id="#+id/Amount"
android:layout_width="50dip"
android:layout_height="20dip"
android:scrollbarAlwaysDrawHorizontalTrack="true"
android:layout_weight="2"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/Name"/>
<CheckBox
android:id="#+id/checkBox1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="50dip"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/Amount"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/Amount" />
</RelativeLayout>
It would be great if i get the answer for two questions,
1. How to save the state of the checkbox?
2. How to enable onitemclicklistener while using checkbox?
Thanks in advance
There is no easy way but to keep an array of boolean equal to the number of your list items and store the state. You need to make this a member variable of the custom adapter that you derive from your SimpleCursorAdapter.
Again, it needs to be part of your custom adapter. In your getView() function of the adapter, you need to implement the onCheckedChangeListener() [don't recall the exact name right now] for the checkbox and in your main Activity where you have the listview, set the onItemClickListener() to the listview.
If this doesn't make sense, just go through a bit in stackoverflow. This question has been dealt with numerous times.
I have a ListView with SimpleCursorAdapter. The layout was using a LinearLayout, but when reading manuals about memory consumption for complex (nested) layouts, I switched to RelativeLayout instead and I've managed to setup the layout exactly as I want.
Now, there's one quirk. In the emulator, I cannot click the list items. It seems as if the elements are one big "no button". However, if I use the emulator arrows and select the listview element (highlights it) and click the button, it works fine.
Why can't I "click" the listview items since I switched to RelativeLayout?
Here's the 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="wrap_content" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/locationName"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Junk text"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/numStores"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/locationName"
android:text="Junk text #1: 117"
android:textSize="10dp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/numItems"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/numStores"
android:text="Junk text #2: 42"
android:textSize="10dp" />
</RelativeLayout>
I even tried android:clickable="true" for RelativeLayout, to no avail.
EDIT
Code for onClick is as follows:
listItems.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2, long arg3) {
int countyID = cursor.getInt(cursor.getColumnIndex(LocationDB.C_ID));
int numItems = cursor.getInt(cursor.getColumnIndex(LocationDB.C_NUM_ITEMS));
int numStores = cursor.getInt(cursor.getColumnIndex(LocationDB.C_NUM_STORES));
String countyName = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(LocationDB.C_NAME));
String foo = String.format(TAG + "Clicked ID #%d (%s), stores = %d, items = %d", countyID, countyName, numStores, numItems);
Log.i(LOG_TAG, foo);
// Show the item in a new activity
Intent apan = new Intent(avBase, Browser.class);
apan.putExtra("countyID", countyID);
startActivity(apan);
}
});
EDIT 2
The code is now tested on my phone, and I get the same error; can't click the items when using RelativeLayout.
I faced some issues with this, too, which seemed to be related to the combination of the ListView's on click listeners and those I assigned each individual item in my Adapter.
In my Adapter.getView() I had to make sure the items were configured like:
item.setLongClickable( false );
item.setClickable( false );
item.setOnClickListener( null );
while my ListView had to have its OnItemClickListener and/or its OnItemLongClickListener set.
Turning on clicks on the individual items and on the listview would not work. Maybe that's what's causing your issue, too.
Seems this is a bug that Google ignores: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3414
I wanted to create a search view like the one Google uses. For this I created the following XML layout, which basically is a search bar and a button in the upper section of the screen and a ListView at the bottom of it.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/LinearLayoutSearch"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:background="#FF394952">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" >
<EditText android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="#+id/searchTextBar" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_weight="1">
<requestFocus></requestFocus>
</EditText>
<Button android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:id="#+id/searchButton" android:text="Buscar"></Button>
</LinearLayout>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/searchResultList"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_weight="1.0" />
</LinearLayout>
And this is the code of the textViewResource that the ArrayAdapter demands on its constructor:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
</TextView>
Now, this is the code of the activity. So far, I just want to display the view with the contents (that's why I'm using a static String array for now).
public class SearchActivity extends Activity{
static final String[] COUNTRIES = new String[] {
"Afghanistan", "Albania", "Algeria"};
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.searchview);
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,R.layout.list_item, COUNTRIES);
ListView lv = (ListView)this.findViewById(R.id.searchResultList);
lv.setAdapter(adapter);
lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true);
lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
// When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), ((TextView) view).getText(),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
}
However, when I run the activity I see the search bar but it doesn't display the ListView.
I've tried changing the extension of SearchActivity to ListActivity, but the program just crashes when I try to start it. I'm also aware of the existence of the Search Interface, but I just want to see this particular method work.
Why it doesn't display the contents of the ListView? Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks in advance
If you are going to use ListActivity you should be aware that ListActivity already has a ListView instance. You need to call its setListAdapter method to set the adapter for its ListView instead of instantiating your own ListView and setting the adapter on it. You can call getListView to get a handle on ListActvity's ListView and then set the click listener on that.
If you want to extend ListActivity then you must have a ListView with id #android:id/list. Change the id of your ListView, that should fix the crash when extending ListActivity.
I have a ListView in my layout. Here is the layout for list item.
shopitem.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TwoLineListItem xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:paddingTop="2dip"
android:paddingBottom="2dip"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:mode="twoLine">
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/text1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:paddingTop="6dip"
android:paddingLeft="44dip"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:lines="1"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"/>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/playBtn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="3dip"
android:layout_alignRight="#android:id/text1"
android:src="#drawable/btnplaypreview"/>
</TwoLineListItem>
Now I want to set some change of image in playBtn OnItemClickListener. For that I am using the following code.
ListView shopActivityListView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.shopActivityListView);
shopActivityListView.setCacheColorHint(Color.TRANSPARENT);
shopActivityListView.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(getApplicationContext(), R.layout.shopitem, trackArr[1]));
shopActivityListView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View vItem, int position, long id) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
ImageView playBtn = (ImageView) vItem.findViewById(R.id.playBtn);
playBtn.setImageResource(R.drawable.eq12);
}
});
But nothing is happening on itemclick. I have checked that onItemClick method is executing without any exception. But nothing is changing. What is the problem in my code?
The image in any item of Listview cannot change directly as it is controlled by Adapter. Only getView() method of the adapter can set any view in the items.
Therefore, in onItemClick method, we have to set a position specific flag and then call the notifyDataSetChanged() for the adapter. Moreover, a custom adapter is needed, where we have to define the getView() method so that we have set the image depending on the above position specific flag.
