populate spinner from string array - android

I'm pretty new to this, and I have a question that is probably pretty simple.
I have 3 spinners, and I want to populate each spinner from an array based on the choice the user made on the previous spinners.
Right now i have it set up to display a toast with the selected data, but I want to set up an activity to open up, but that's later. Right now I need to know how to populate the spinner from an array from the strings.xml.

You can get a string array from strings.xml using getStringArray(). So the code snippet you want is:
String[] regionsArray = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.regions_array);
regions = new ArrayList<String>(Arrays.asList(regionsArray));
Now whatever you enter into regions_array will end up in the regions ArrayList.

how to change font size dynamically at runtime?

I have one spinner which has some font size 14dp,16dp etc. when i select value from spinner
I want to change font size in text view for all activity of application at run time.
IS this possible?
I refer several answer but it doesn't work for me..
android dynamically change style at runtime
Try this code:
package com.packegename;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.TypedValue;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.Spinner;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class AndroidTextSize extends Activity {
String[] optUnit = {"COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP",
"COMPLEX_UNIT_IN",
"COMPLEX_UNIT_MM",
"COMPLEX_UNIT_PT",
"COMPLEX_UNIT_PX",
"COMPLEX_UNIT_SP"};
int[] valueUnit = { TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP,
TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_IN,
TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_MM,

String[] optSize ={"0.05", "0.1", "0.25", "0.5", "1", "4", "8", "10", "14", "16", "20", "30"};
float[] valueSize = {0.05f, 0.1f, 0.25f, 0.5f, 1f, 4f, 8f, 10f, 14f, 16f, 20f, 30f};

#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
selUnit = (Spinner)findViewById(R.id.selunit);
selSize = (Spinner)findViewById(R.id.selsize);
textOut = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textout);
ArrayAdapter<String> adapterUnit = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, optUnit);
adapterUnit.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
selUnit.setAdapter(adapterUnit);
selUnit.setOnItemSelectedListener(selUnitOnItemSelectedListener);
ArrayAdapter<String> adapterSize = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, optSize);
adapterSize.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
selSize.setAdapter(adapterSize);
selSize.setOnItemSelectedListener(selSizeOnItemSelectedListener);
}
private Spinner.OnItemSelectedListener selUnitOnItemSelectedListener
= new Spinner.OnItemSelectedListener(){
#Override

int unit = valueUnit[selUnit.getSelectedItemPosition()];
String strUnit = optUnit[selUnit.getSelectedItemPosition()];
float size = valueSize[selSize.getSelectedItemPosition()];
String strSize = optSize[selSize.getSelectedItemPosition()];
textOut.setTextSize(unit, size);
textOut.setText(strUnit + " : " + strSize);
}
}
above code is working for one activity and for single textview or other view ..
use this code globally for whole application activity modify
create one class. TextFontSize.class implement class with serializable
change updateTextSize() to.
public static void updateTextView(TextView theTextView, float theSize) {
theTextView.setTextSize(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, theSize);
}
public static void updateEditText(EditText theEditText, float theSize) {
theEditText.setTextSize(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, theSize);
}
and any other Layout view just create method as above.
and use this function any activity of your application like
private void setAllFontSizeOf(float theSize) {
TextVFontsize.updateTextView(textview, theSize);
TextFontSize.updateEditText(Edittext,theSize);
}
and finally declare this method to particular activity.

multiple order entries in android application

I'm working on an order management system for android.
On the order page where the user submits an order, i want it to be able to allow the user to submit multiple orders, then take the user to a page where it displays all the orders made.
What method can i use to accomplish that?
This is the order activity page which is made up of 3 spinners and one textfield. This page takes the user to a ViewOrder page which displays what the user has selected. Instead of that i would like the user to submit multiple orders first, then see the display of all orders submitted. Any help is much appreciated.

}
}
Once try as follows take an List for multiple orders
ArrayList<String> orders=new ArrayList<String>();
as class variable in activity
then store a complete order as string with some special character as divider like
String msg1=sp1.getSelectedItem().toString();
String msg2=sp2.getSelectedItem().toString();
String msg3=sp3.getSelectedItem().toString();
String message = txtCrates.getText().toString();
orders.add(msg1+","+msg2+","+msg3+","+message);
then for intent add as follows
intent.putStringArrayListExtra("orders", orders);
Hope this will helps you.

Android spinner calculation with variables

I have a problem that i can't figure out how to solve. My code is the following:
package com.app.BoomBase;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.LauncherActivity.ListItem;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Spinner;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class Distance extends Activity implements OnItemSelectedListener {
Button Calc;
Spinner spType, spForce, spWeight;
double FarstCatch, TrickCatch, MTA, LongDistance ;
String[] types = { "Farst Catch", "Trick Catch", "MTA" , "Long Distance" };
EditText etWeight;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
setContentView(R.layout.distance);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
FarstCatch = 100;
TrickCatch = 43.56;
MTA = 32.60 ;
LongDistance = 25;
ArrayAdapter<String> AdapterT = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, types);
spType = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spType);
AdapterT.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
spType.setAdapter(AdapterT);
spType.setPrompt("Select Type");
spType.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);
Button Calc = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
Calc.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String selected = spType.getSelectedItem().toString();
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Your Boomerang will apoximately fly this far:" + selected, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
});
}
#Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2,
long arg3) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
int position = spType.getSelectedItemPosition();
switch (position){
case 0:
double FarstCatch;
break;
case 1:
double TrickCatch;
break;
case 2:
double MTA;
break;
case 3:
double LongDistance;
break;
}
}
#Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
I want to take the variable that correspond to the seleceted case from the user input (spType), and then use that for a calculation. Exmple: If the user selectes FarstCatch i want to take the number 100 and use it in this calculation: R = m / FarstCatch.
How can i do that ?
Edit:
The new code:
package com.app.BoomBase;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Spinner;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class Distance extends Activity implements OnItemSelectedListener {
Button Calc;
Spinner spType, spForce, spWeight;
double FarstCatch, TrickCatch, MTA, LongDistance, r ;
String[] types = { "Farst Catch", "Trick Catch", "MTA" , "Long Distance" };
double[] values = {100, 43.56, 32.6, 25};
EditText etWeight;
int etNum;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
setContentView(R.layout.distance);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
FarstCatch = 100;
TrickCatch = 43.56;
MTA = 32.60 ;
LongDistance = 25;
ArrayAdapter<String> AdapterT = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, types);
spType = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spType);
AdapterT.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
spType.setAdapter(AdapterT);
spType.setPrompt("Select Type");
spType.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);
etWeight = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.etWeight);
Button Calc = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
Calc.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String etValue = etWeight.getText().toString();
etNum = Integer.parseInt(etValue);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Your Boomerang will apoximately fly this far:" + r , Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
});
}
public void onItemSelected1(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2, long arg3) {
// value corresponds to the selected spType
double value = values[arg2];
r = etNum/value;
}
#Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2,
long arg3) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
int position = spType.getSelectedItemPosition();
switch (position){
case 0:
double FarstCatch;
break;
case 1:
double TrickCatch;
break;
case 2:
double MTA;
break;
case 3:
double LongDistance;
break;
}
}
#Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
But it still don't work.. How can this be ?
Create another array for values corresponding to types array.
double[] values = {100, 43.56, 32.6, 25};
Next, implement onItemSelected() as follows -
#Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2, long arg3) {
// value corresponds to the selected spType
double value = values[arg2];
// Do your calculation
//double R = m/value;
}
Note: arg2 is the selected item position so need to use getSelectedItem()
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id)
Sample Code:
public class Distance extends Activity implements OnItemSelectedListener {
Button Calc;
Spinner spType, spForce, spWeight;
double selectedValue, r;
String[] types = { "Farst Catch", "Trick Catch", "MTA" , "Long Distance" };
double[] values = {100, 43.56, 32.6, 25};
EditText etWeight;
int etNum;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
setContentView(R.layout.distance);
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
ArrayAdapter<String> AdapterT = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, types);
spType = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spType);
AdapterT.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
spType.setAdapter(AdapterT);
spType.setPrompt("Select Type");
spType.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);
etWeight = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.etWeight);
Button Calc = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
Calc.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String etValue = etWeight.getText().toString();
etNum = Integer.parseInt(etValue);
r = etNum/selectedValue;
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Your Boomerang will apoximately fly this far:" + r , Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
});
}
#Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2, long arg3) {
// value corresponds to the selected spType
selectedValue = values[arg2];
}
#Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {
}

What might be the issue?
android framework doesn't work for listview for keyboard(InputMethodService) ?
FY Reference i am attaching the code please have look at it.
NOTE: i am able to get ontouchlistner of it.

I got a problem with retrieving the string from clicked item. It is in:
auto.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener(){
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2,
long arg3) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
main = auto.getText().toString();
//Log.v("CURSOR",finish);
result.setText("");
auto.setText("");
}
});
I need both strings from word and meaning fields.
Any response would be great...
You need to use http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/CursorAdapter.html#getItem(int).
Cursor cursor = (Cursor) simple.getItem(position);
// retrieve the data from the cursor
This seems to be a problem with SimpleCursorAdapter on 2.1, on 2.2 the cursor is positioned on the requested item and you can retrieve the column data but in 2.1 the cursor position is 0 and cursor.move(itemIndex) and cursor.moveToFirst() both return false.
I plan to do a RYO database adapter.
Getting string from SimpleCurstor Adapter using cursor
#Override
public boolean onSuggestionClick(int position) {
//First get cursor from your Adapter,
Cursor cursor = (Cursor) mAdapter.getItem(position);
/* Then get string data from cursor's column, I am getting it from column 0 in this case. You can use your own column index. */
String s=cursor.getString(0);
//Then set the searchview or autotextview with that string
mSearchView.setQuery(s, true); //true will submit the query
}
