I am trying to make a day-calendar and for that I am using a tablelayout and I then want to define a custom row(layout xml) containing TextViews to be able to access data here is and example of my table layout:
<TableLayout
android:id="#+id/appointmentListView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<TableRow
android:id="#+id/tableRow1">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/unitNul"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="00:00"/>
<CustomRow><\CustomRow> //this is where I imagined I would have to put my custom element
</LinearLayout>
</TableRow>
I would then proceed to put in appointments based on their time of the day in the correct rows (via. switch logic)
My questions are:
How do I add a Custom element to each tablerow?
Is this the best way to do so?
side note:
I have tried to make a custom view element, but this seems to be a bit too dificult for me to handle. (this is also an option if you know a good guide explaining this)
I have already tried: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/custom-components.html
create an Xml like this::
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableLayout
android:id="#+id/tablerows"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#android:color/white"
android:stretchColumns="0,1" >
</TableLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
then in activity class dynamically add rows and the other views like this;;
TableRow row;
TextView t1, t2;
int dip = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP,(float) 1, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
row = new TableRow(context);
row.setLayoutParams(new android.widget.TableRow.LayoutParams(android.widget.TableRow.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
android.widget.TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
t1 = new TextView(context);
t1.setTypeface(null, 1);
t1.setTextSize(15);
t1.setWidth(50 * dip);
t1.setPadding(20*dip, 0, 0, 0);
row.addView(t1);
then in ur table(here "myTable") add the row like this::
myTable.addView(row, new TableLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

I am trying to inflate a layout resource and move some views in it to a table. I remove the views from their parents and then add them to the table. It works but what I really need is to add them to a TableRow in the table instead. However, when I tried to do that, nothing showed up.
To simplify the example, I just use views in an xml instead of ones generated in code. In the following xml, there are a TableLayout with one TableRow and an ImageButton:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
...>
<TableLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/table">
<TableRow
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/row_1"></TableRow>
</TableLayout>
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="New Button"
android:id="#+id/button" />
</RelativeLayout>
If I move the button to the table, it works:
Button button = (Button ) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.button);
TableLayout table = (TableLayout) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.table);
TableRow row = (TableRow) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.row_1);
((ViewGroup)button.getParent()).removeView(button);
table.addView(button);
However, if I move it to the TableRow, the button won't show up.
row.addView(button);
Does anyone have a solution?
Try to add the Button to a row like this:
row.addView(button,new TableRow.LayoutParams(
TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
I am trying to use the Library SwipeLayout (https://github.com/daimajia/AndroidSwipeLayout) to make a table of swipeable rows (that is, to achieve this effect). I want to create the table dynamically (with Java, not xml). The table (if it were to exist as xml) should look like this:
...TableLayout...
<TableRow
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="0dp">
<com.daimajia.swipe.SwipeLayout
android:id="#+id/swipe"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<!-- The first view in SwipeLayout is the delete button hidden behind -->
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:id="#+id/delete1"
android:gravity="center"
android:padding="16dp"
android:background="#FF0000"
android:textSize="22sp"
android:text="Delete"/>
<GridLayout android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:background="#drawable/bottom_border_light_solid"
android:columnCount="2"
android:padding="10dp">
...TextViews...
</GridLayout>
</com.daimajia.swipe.SwipeLayout>
</TableRow>
.../TableLayout...
My table creation code looks like this:
TableRow row = new TableRow(c);
SwipeLayout swipeLayout = new SwipeLayout(c);
TextView delete = generateDeleteButton(c); //I have confirmed that this function works
GridLayout cell = generateRoutineLayout(c); //I have confirmed that this function works
swipeLayout.setShowMode(SwipeLayout.ShowMode.LayDown);
swipeLayout.addDrag(SwipeLayout.DragEdge.Left, delete);
swipeLayout.addSwipeListener(swipeListener);
cell.setPadding(5, 5, 5, 5);
swipeLayout.addView(delete);
swipeLayout.addView(cell);
TableRow.LayoutParams lp = new TableRow.LayoutParams(TableRow.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
swipeLayout.setLayoutParams(lp);
row.addView(swipeLayout);
TableRow.LayoutParams rl = new TableRow.LayoutParams(TableRow.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, TableRow.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
row.setLayoutParams(rl);//TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
row.setPadding(0, 0, 0, 0);
I have confirmed that generateRoutineLayout(c) works properly and generates a correct GridLayout. After closely inspecting the Tree View in Android monitor it is clear that the grid layout IS added to the SwipeLayout and IS properly sized, but it is simply not appearing!
I know that SwipeLayout extends FrameLayout. Is it possible that I can't insert a GridLayout into a FrameLayout?
Thanks
Try having RelativeLayout inside your FrameLayout and then add your GridLayout inside the RelativeLayout.
Hope this helps you.
I'm using a TableLayout with 3 rows, and 3 imagebuttons in each row. I want to keep the aspect ratio of the images.
I have defined a layout like this:
<TableLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:background="#000000"
android:padding="0dp" >
<TableRow
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:padding="0dp" >
<ImageButton
android:layout_weight="1"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:contentDescription="#string/Cell"
android:padding="0dp"
android:scaleType="fitCenter"
android:src="#drawable/empty" >
</ImageButton>
<!-- Two more images like above -->
</TableRow>
<!-- Two more rows like above -->
</TableLayout>
With this layout, I get something like this:
http://i.stack.imgur.com/reoSd.png
As you can see, strange holes between rows in the last column appear. I dont know why, but if I change the TableLayout margin to 0dp, this problem dissapears:
<TableLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="0dp"
android:background="#000000"
android:padding="0dp" >
And the result:
http://i.stack.imgur.com/Jytix.png
Why this behavior? What I am doing wrong? I have tested this, with many devices on the emulator and I always get the same. As additional information, I have printed the size and padding of the images of the last column and the first dinamically with getHeight() and getWidth()..., and i always get exactly the same.
I had this issue, you should use relative layout instead... If you still want to use Table layout, try :
TableLayout tableView = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.tableView);
TableRow row = (TableRow) inflater.inflate(R.layout.tablerow, tableView, false);
ImageView imgDis = (ImageView) row.findViewById(R.id.spinnerEntryContactPhoto);
imgDis.setPadding(5, 5, 5, 5);
imgDis.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
// set row height width
TableRow.LayoutParams params = new TableRow.LayoutParams(TableRow.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, 50);
params.topMargin = 0;
params.bottomMargin = 0;
params.leftMargin = 0;
params.rightMargin = 0;
Hope this help
I have been trying to get some data to show up in my dialog.
In the dialog I have a checkbox and two buttons that show up, so I know it is loading my layout file.
I am not certain what else to do, so why would the background on my dialog be completely transparent, and more importantly, why can't I see anything in the two views I have experimented with?
Here is my entire layout file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<CheckBox
android:id="#+id/show_all_checkbox"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Include books read" />
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/books_by_author_select_button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Add Books" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/books_by_author_cancel_button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Cancel" />
</LinearLayout>
<TableLayout android:id="#+id/books_by_author_list" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:stretchColumns="0">
<TableRow android:id="#+id/TableRow01" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView android:id="#+id/TextView01" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="textfield 1-1"></TextView>
<CheckBox android:id="#+id/CheckBox01" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"></CheckBox>
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
</LinearLayout>
I have also tried this with a ListView but the same results. Directly below the two buttons the dialog is transparent.
The TableLayout has nine children when it finishes being initialized, and since it wasn't showing up, I then added the TableRow in the xml above, originally that block wasn't there.
this.mContext = context;
setContentView(R.layout.books_by_author);
final TableLayout view = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.books_by_author_list);
for(int position = 0; position < list.size(); position++) {
TableLayout table = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.books_by_author_list);
// create a new TableRow
TableRow row = new TableRow(mContext);
// create a new TextView
TextView t = new TextView(mContext);
// set the text to "text xx"
t.setText(list.get(position).mTitle);
// create a CheckBox
CheckBox c = new CheckBox(mContext);
// add the TextView and the CheckBox to the new TableRow
row.addView(t);
row.addView(c);
// add the TableRow to the TableLayout
table.addView(row,new TableLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
}
view.invalidate();
I have tried this with a ListView and just using an ArrayAdapter, and I have created a custom adapter extending ArrayAdapter and BaseAdapter.
I have also explicitly set the background of the ListView and TableLayout to be Color.YELLOW, and tried setting other colors, but nothing helps.
TableLayout doesn't work in many cases. Moreover, while running your app, TableLayout creates problem.
Always prefer using LinearLayout or FrameLayout.
Linearlayout can fit at any place where you are using TableLayout.
Solution: The problem was that the LinearLayout containing the buttons has fill_parent instead of wrap_content for the layout_height attribute.
I have a tablelayout in Android like this:
1) Row == IMAGEVIEW | TEXTVIEW
2) Row == IMAGEVIEW | SPINNER
Now what I need to do is switch the TEXTVIEW/SPINNER. The one from row 2 goes to row 1 and the one from 1 goes to 2.
Would be awesome to have a little animation also. I've seen Viewswitcher and Viewflipper but This doesn't seem to be what I am looking for. Anyone got a good idea how to get this to work?
My layout (a piece of it) looks like this:
<TableRow>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/left_layout_controlls"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:stretchColumns="*"
android:id="#+id/top_controlls"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TableRow>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/fromCountry_img"
android:src="#drawable/tc_rt_from"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/fromCountry"
android:layout_marginTop="2px"
android:layout_marginLeft="2px"
android:background="#drawable/round_edges_main_controll"
android:layout_marginRight="2px"
android:layout_height="38px"
android:layout_width="160dip"/>
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:stretchColumns="*"
android:layout_below="#id/top_controlls"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TableRow>
<ImageView
android:src="#drawable/tc_rt_to"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_below="#id/fromCountry_img"
/>
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/toCountry"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="2px"
android:layout_marginBottom="2px"
android:layout_marginRight="2px"
android:layout_width="160dip"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:drawSelectorOnTop="true"/>
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
Update:
I've tried to switch the controlls like this, and the animation works, but when the animation ends, the controlls will jump back into their old position.
Any idea why?
LinearLayout layout1 = ((LinearLayout) DataHolder.activityHolder.findViewById(R.id.top_controll));
LinearLayout layout2 = ((LinearLayout) DataHolder.activityHolder.findViewById(R.id.bottom_controll));
DataHolder.activityHolder.findViewById(R.id.toCountry));
TranslateAnimation a = new TranslateAnimation(
Animation.ABSOLUTE,0,Animation.ABSOLUTE,0,
Animation.ABSOLUTE,0,Animation.ABSOLUTE, 40);
a.setDuration(1200);
TranslateAnimation b = new TranslateAnimation(
Animation.ABSOLUTE,0,Animation.ABSOLUTE,0,
Animation.ABSOLUTE,0,Animation.ABSOLUTE, -40);
b.setDuration(1200);
layout1.startAnimation(a);
layout2.startAnimation(b);
Simplest way to do this is to have Spinner with visibility GONE(which does not take place in the container) where you have the TextView and TextView where you have Spinner. Then just switch the visibilities. This solution is not practical one.
Honestly, I think using a TableLayout for this situation is impractical. Although the view you provided implies a TableLayout is the most practical, TableLayouts are designed to be fairly static. I do not know that there is a method to remove or animate TableRows within a TableLayout.
I would suggest using this following:
<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" ... >
<LinearLayout android:orientation="horizontal" ... >
CONTENTLAYOUTS
</LinearLayout>
... MORE LINEARLAYOUTS FOR MORE ROWS
</>
You could then manipulate the positions of these items.
For example, you could store the current positions as such:
LinearLayout layout1 = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.layout1);
int position1 = layout1.getTop();
LinearLayout layout2 = (LinearLayout) findViewById(r.id.layout2);
int position2 = layout2.getTop();
AnimationSet animSet = new AnimationSet(...);
//define your animations here, or load them from resources
//to move each view to each of the two positions, changing the
//Y coordinate of the Views
Make sure to use an AnimationSet in order to have both animations be performed at the same time.
I hope this helps! Let me know if any of this was confusing, and I'll try to clear it up.
grmpf,
got it to work. thanks. the error was that I frogot this:
setFillAfter(true);
this will persist the change after the animation ends
