I would like to show two views in a service context. One is a TextView, and the other is a class that I have developed extending the basic View class.
prompt.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/mtPrompt"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/background_dark"
android:text="#string/demoString"
android:textColor="#android:color/white"
android:minLines="2"
android:textSize="25dp" >
</TextView>
and input.xml:
<com.xxx.ime.sssView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/inputView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/translucent_gray"
android:cacheColorHint="#null" >
</com.xxx.ime.sssView>
in my onInitializeInterface() implementation I inflate them as follows:
sssView sv =
(sssView) getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.input, null);
TextView tv =
(TextView) getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.prompt, null);
I see the sssView, but not the TextView. Any ideas why?
This isn't quite an answer, but it is a solution. Rather than having two separate views, all I needed to do was inherit my sssView from TextView rather than view. Then I inflated the one view, and placed my text where I want it using gravity.

I'm trying to contain the layout model for a custom list view in a single custom list view layout.xml file and inflate that using an custom adaptor class using kotlin.
The data seems to come through fine and the row formatting is accurate with the exception of the header being repeated for each row. I'm guessing I could just move the header out of the list view layout.xml file but I'd prefer to keep that self contained so it could be re-used.
This is the layout file in question:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<!-- Header aligned to top -->
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/estimated_ftp_header"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:background="#color/colorHeader"
android:gravity="start" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="15dp"
android:text="#string/estimated_ftp"
android:textColor="#000"
android:textSize="20sp" />
</RelativeLayout>
<!-- Content below header -->
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
android:layout_below="#id/estimated_ftp_header"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:padding="6dip"
android:id="#+id/estimated_ftp_row">
<ImageView
android:contentDescription="#string/ftp_type"
android:id="#+id/ftp_icon"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/centerPoint"
android:gravity = "center|end|end"
android:src="#drawable/glyphicons_13_heart"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/centerPoint"
android:text=""
android:layout_width="0dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/ftp_value"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/centerPoint"
android:gravity = "center|start|start"
android:text="141 bpm"/>
</RelativeLayout>
I believe the solution would be to figure out how to select the estimated_ftp_row id and inflate it instead of the the whole estimated_fto.xml file.
Here is the code in the adapter that selects the layout before inflating within the getView method:
val inflater = activity?.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE) as LayoutInflater
view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.estimated_ftp, null)
viewHolder = ViewHolder(view)
view?.tag = viewHolder
How would I change the inflater.inflate to inflate something within R.layout.estimated_ftp?
FWIW, the activity's XML layout has a ListView control in the location used for this as a placeholder. It doesn't reference the custom layout file. That connection is done via the adapter class noted above. Not sure that's a problem or not so I wanted to mention it...
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Solution Update:
https://stackoverflow.com/users/2850651/mike-m had the guidance I needed. I was able to separate the row format from the header format XML layouts. The Adapter was unchanged and the Activity has new code to add the header if content is found for the list in question.
val headerView = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.estimated_ftp_head, null)
estimated_ftp_list.addHeaderView(headerView)

I have to include one layout in my application. So that I have used
<include
android:id="#+id/support_layout"
android:width="match_parent"
android:height="match_parent"
layout="#layout/support"/>
I have referenced this include tag in my java file using View.
View v = (View) findViewById(R.id.support_layout);
But at some point of my code I have to Hide this layout.
so that I used v.GONE
But it's not Hiding.
I want to reference those text and button attributes located in XML programatically.
How can I do that?
There is my support.xml:
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/support_layout"
android:width="match_parent"
android:height="match_parent">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txt"
android:width="match_parent"
android:height="wrap_content"/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn"
android:width="match_parent"
android:height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button"/>
</LinearLayout>
Since <include/> is not a View type in android and visibility is the property of View, we can not access the visibility from included layout's reference.
However if you are using kotlin with view binding, we can get the reference of root of the included layout like binding.supportLayout.root which probably will be one of the View (ConstraintLayout, RelativeLayout, LinearLayout etc.)
Now we have reference of view means we can play with their visibility like below code.
binding.supportLayout.root.visibility = View.GONE
Hope you got the idea.
We need to see your actual implementation of hiding that View you mentioned.
But, straight from reading of your question, I presume that you've might do it the wrong way.
To hide or make a view invisible, use this:
yourView.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
Bear in mind that this does not remove the view compeletly; it would still remain in your layout and you could get a reference to it or even try to manipulate it.
To remove it compeletly, use this instead:
yourView.setVisibility(View.GONE);
Now if you call this, yourView would be compeletly removed from the layout. You will no longer able to get a reference to it.
Put that view into a linearlayout and hide the linearlayout. It will work.
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/support_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<include
layout="#layout/support"
android:height="match_parent"
android:width="match_parent" /> </LinearLayout>
And don't forget writing Linearlayout instead of View.
Briefly, instead of
View v = (View) findViewById(R.id.support_layout);
Do this
LinearLayout v = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.support_layout);
You can hide this "included" layout with calling setVisibility() :
v.setVisibility(View.GONE)
and show it later with calling :
v.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE)
To reference button and textview from support layout you can use findViewById method on your included View (I'm not sure but I think it's even not mandatory, you can call it directly on your activity's view) :
View supportLayout = (View) findViewById(R.id.support_layout);
Textview txv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txt);
Button btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn);
(if it's not working try with : Button btn = (Button) supportLayout.findViewById(R.id.btn);)
-- FYI --
When you give attributs to include tags it override ones of the included layout (there support_layout LinearLayout) so you don't need to do that
you must use like this includedLayoutId.viewId.visibility = View.GONE in this case you can access to included view, now for example:
loading.xml
<com.airbnb.lottie.LottieAnimationView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/loading"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:lottie_autoPlay="true"
app:lottie_fileName="loading.json"
app:lottie_loop="true" />
in fragment_a.xml :
<include layout="#layout/loading"
android:id="#+id/anim_loading"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="#dimen/_80sdp"/>
and finally use it animLoading.loading.visibility = View.GONE
Thanks to the new ConstraintLayout.
This is how I do it with widget.Group
<include
android:id="#+id/bottom_bar_action"
layout="#layout/bottom_bar_back_action"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent" />
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.Group
android:id="#+id/bottom_bar_group"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
app:constraint_referenced_ids="bottom_bar_action" />
Then you can hide the include layout by doing binding.bottomBarGroup.visibility = View.GONE. Cheers

I have a TabHost with several tabs, which content is defined as a FrameLayout, which wraps a TextView, each one of them having a lot of text, more than it can be shown within the screen layout, so I had to enable vertical scrolling for every tab.
The main thing is that those tabs are created dynamically (programatically), so I have to specify all the options this way:
final SoftReference<TabHost> th = new SoftReference<TabHost>((TabHost) ((Activity) globvars.getContext()).findViewById(android.R.id.tabhost));
final TabSpec setContent = th.get().newTabSpec(tag).setIndicator(tabview).setContent(new TabContentFactory() {
public View createTabContent(String tag) {
view.setBackground(globvars.getContext().getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.rounded_edges));
view.setPadding(25, 25, 25, 25);
view.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
view.setLines(50);
view.setMaxLines(maxLines);
view.setEllipsize(TextUtils.TruncateAt.START);
view.setHorizontalScrollBarEnabled(false);
view.setVerticalScrollBarEnabled(true);
view.setMovementMethod(new ScrollingMovementMethod());
view.setScrollBarStyle(View.SCROLLBARS_INSIDE_INSET);
view.setVerticalFadingEdgeEnabled(true);
view.setGravity(Gravity.BOTTOM);
view.setOverScrollMode(1);
view.setTextSize(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 11);
view.setTypeface(Typeface.MONOSPACE);
return view;
}
});
Using this approach, I can scroll backwards and forwards indeed, but visually the scrollbar is not shown. I'm mean this bar:
Am I missing something? Does the scrollbar have to be defined by a customized drawable by imperative?
Thanks!
------ EDIT (12-31-2013) ------
I've been looking around and still can't find any solution to this. I've tried as many combinations of parameters as I was able to find, but no result. Particularly, I've tried this and also wrapping the FrameLayout within a ScrollView, but instead of showing a scrollbar at the TextView itself, the whole TextView is wrapped within a scrollbar and grows when buffer gets bigger and bigger, that's not what I want.
Any help appreciated!
------ EDIT (01-17-2014) ------
Well, at this point, I can assure I've tried any logical step (well, at least to me) to make this work and still can't! I clarify that I have about 7-8 additional activities and I have no trouble with scrolling in any of them. I just work with TabHost in this one, though. So I'm starting a bounty on this, because that's already endangering my mental sanity.
I'm posting my layout below:
<LinearLayout xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

<LinearLayout

<!-- Some additional LinearLayouts that don't have anything to do with the tab widget -->

Ok, based on corsair992's answer, I could finally get this working. My real mistake was assuming that even the method that creates the tab (posted above) receives a TextView as parameter, working with a View in the TabSpec definition would be casting it to the TextView. So indeed, I wasn't aware I was actually setting the scrollbars on a View (didn't know the View class didn't provide a public programatic method to configure scrollbars neither), so I followed corsair992's advice and created a separate layout with this content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/tabsContent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_margin="3dp"
android:background="#drawable/rounded_edges"
android:gravity="bottom"
android:padding="8dp"
android:scrollHorizontally="false"
android:scrollbarStyle="insideOverlay"
android:scrollbars="vertical"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textSize="11sp"
android:typeface="monospace"
tools:ignore="SmallSp" />
So now, instead of calling the above method which sets all those attributes to the View, I simply inflate this layout and set the MovementMethod:
final TabSpec setContent = th.get().newTabSpec(tag).setIndicator(tabview).setContent(new TabContentFactory() {
public View createTabContent(String tag) {
// tabs_content is the layout above
final View ll_view = LayoutInflater.from(globvars.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.tabs_content, null);
final TextView view = (TextView) ll_view.findViewById(R.id.tabsContent);
view.setMovementMethod(new ScrollingMovementMethod());
return ll_view;
}
});
It appears that the base View class does not provide a public method for initializing scroll bars if they are not specifically enabled in an XML layout resource. However, there is no reason you can't define your tab content in an XML resource, enable vertical scroll bars by setting the android:scrollbars attribute to vertical, and inflate it from the TabContentFactory dynamically.
Something like this in your case:
public View createTabContent(String tag) {
Activity activity = (Activity) globvars.getContext();
TextView view = (TextView) LayoutInflater.from(activity).inflate(R.layout.mytabcontent,
(ViewGroup) activity.findViewById(android.R.id.tabcontent), false);
view.setMovementMethod(new ScrollingMovementMethod());
view.setText("My Text");
return view;
}
I am trying to design a 3D page curl.
In my mainActivity, I have a viewPager which contains pages to be curled. For each page I have a separate layout file.
In the layout file if i just add a text view like below it is showing up fine:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
style="#style/PageTitle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/green"
android:text="VIEW 1" /> -->
But if I wrap the textview inside relative layout, it just shows a white blank screen and textview is not shown.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".DemoActivity" >
<TextView
style="#style/PageTitle"
android:id="#+id/sampletextview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:text="VIEW 1" />
</RelativeLayout>
Can someone please help me to know why i am not able to use relative layout in my view layout file:
I inflate the view like this:
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) myAppContext.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View view1 = inflater.inflate(mViewIds[0], null);
Try changing the second parameter of the inflate() call from null to the ViewGroup that view1 is added to. Or post the code where you add it (and include the part where you define the LayoutParams).
Hey folks Im using two layouts, one embedded through an 'include' in the main layout file.
I wish to set the TextView in the embedded one within the activity for the main xml. Here's what I've come up with so far......
Main xml: date_list_layout.xml
<RelativeLayout android:id="#+id/RelativeLayout01"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:background="#drawable/bgoption">
<include layout="#layout/cur"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" />
</RelativeLayout>
Embedded xml: cur.xml
<?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">
<TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/currency"
android:textSize="14px"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:textColor="#d17375"
></TextView>
</LinearLayout>
Then my Activity code sets the content to the main xml but tries to inflate the embedded one to set the text as follows......
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.date_list_layout);
View v = LayoutInflater.from(getBaseContext()).inflate(R.layout.cur,
null);
TextView currency = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.currency);
currency.setText("test");
}
I'm not getting any errors but the TextView remains empty. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong
Thanks

You can use setText directly in TextView. Without calling LayoutInflater in activity.
setContentView(R.layout.date_list_layout);
TextView currency = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.currency);
currency.setText("test");
Just directly use the TextView:
TextView currency = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.currency);
Once you have included cur.xml you no longer need to inflate manually. It is automatically inserted into the structure, so you can safely remove the additional LayoutInflater call.
