I want to create a dialog with transparent BG and no border.
For this I use android.R.style.Theme_Translucent_NoTitleBar.
But in the dialog I have UI componenets - imageview and edittext.
I want these to create a shade over the activity page. Like the regular dialog is doing.
Any ideas how?
I think that you'll create a custom dialog, this link shows you how to do this http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html

I looked through forums and SO and find many examples on how to display a dialog with a blurred and dim background which I put in place in my app. The issue I have now is when I want to display a second dialog on top of the previous one but still keeping both on the screen. The effect I would like is to dim and blur the background a second time when the second pop-up shows up. But what it does at the moment is blurring the activity again and not blurring the dialog that is still showing in the background.
So my question would be, is it possible to blur a dialog, when opening another dialog? If yes how could I do this? (Make sure you read the question well... I know how to blur the activity, the question is how to blur the dialog already shown on screen when I open a new dialog on top of it....)
Thanks very much
you can create fullscreen dialog with custom layout which consist from
real dialog content and blurred transparent part outside which would blur and overlay all background views.
This image is of alert box covering full screen with transparent orange background
you'd have to create it yourself. alerts can't be style.
Just make a div that displays when it's needed to, and disapears when they click yes/no...
I've created a Dialog that appears when a button is clicked. I made a custom layout for it and coded it like this:
final Dialog dialog = new Dialog (CheckpointsActivity.this, android.R.style.Theme_Translucent);
dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.alert_continue);
//rest of the code...
This is how the Dialog looks now:
And this is how I want it to look like:
It should be a lot darker in the background with a gradient effect. I can't seem to find any info on how to achieve this.
You can make a dialog box with the same background and gradient and then make the ui on top of that.
Ok I am going crazy over this. I am trying to change alert dialog background color from the default grey to white. I am unable to do so. I am using alert dialog with list
I have extended the parent theme.dialog style and I have tried so many combinations of attributes but I keep getting the white background not only for the list but beyond the dialf boundries (as if the width is fill parent)
When i set the color to transparent then the dialog appears nicely with the list in grey. It seems that the dialog window is transparent and it is fill parent but the list is the one with thegrey colorand thats probably why we dont see the full dialog
How can I fix this??
I'm really interested if I can create two dialogs in Android in same time in one activity. Here is what I want to achieve : I want to have a circle progress bar with a cancel button and at the bottom of my activity to have a horizontal progress dialog which indicates some calculations. Is there any option to create something like this or similar to this?
Thanks in Advance!
There is no reason why the synchronizing bar, progress bar, and cancel button could not be part of the same dialog that has a transparent background.
You can call
ProgressDialog#getWindow#setGravity(...) to change the gravity.
So:
ProgressDialog dialog = ProgressDialog.show(AContext, "Test", "On the bottom");
dialog.getWindow().setGravity(Gravity.BOTTOM);
You cannot show multiple dialogs at the same time, however you can create an activity with a transparent background which looks like two different dialogs.
