I have a list view with some items in it and I would like to know how to add extra information to the side of this? I have a photoshopped example below of what I mean, it's difficult to describe without an image or I would have used google to try and find the answer myself. I want it with the extra text on the right hand side, i've seen it done easily within the iPhone but i'm a bit stuck with android. Thanks.
it's easy in Android too, you need to create a custom layout for a list item and set up an adapter to write to the fields of your new layout. here an example.

I'm sorry. I'm being very vague on my question, but I'm not sure what to search to accomplish the layout I want to. Here's a sketch of what I'm wanting to do:
Basically, what I'm trying to do is recreate a standard booking app, and I'd like to know how can I recreate the part showing each room. I'd like some help how to create the layout to show 1 room and how to repeat that layout multiple times.
Use ListView or RecyclerView
Here is an example

I am designing an Android Application, in which I want to add a filter to filter the choices that are displayed in certain categories, now the thing is I am planning to have show a PopupMenu whenever a user clicks on the filter button, and it is working, but since the number if filers is large. so I want to group them and make them collapse able, and I have seen many apps doing so, but I am not able to implement than in code, if you could provide me with a nice code doing the same, or any tutorial it would be much appreciated. Thank you :)
If you are using json for getting the data, then it will be good to maintain the filter from back end side. So just pass the name of category or categories, for which you want to get filter. and you will get the result from json for all categories. Most of the Apps using this approach. So you can also try this way, to achieve filter.
I'm not sure if i understand your question correctly, but if you want to group some items in your popup ExpandableListView should solve your problem.

Hi I am developing an application that needs to display list of items. Clicking (or Tapping) on an item should display a description text of the item right below the item. I am talking about something like a vertical accordion.
I want them dynamically created (created in code rather than the XML). That part was completed with ease. I inflated multiple SlidingDrawer in a LinearLayout to accomplish it.
But the problem is only one SlidingDrawer is displayed in the activity. This was accomplished by giving fixed heights to SlidingDrawer. This approach will not hold as I mentioned above that the list of items is dynamically generated and also the area in the activity where the description of the item must come remains blank.
I am now looking for alternative views for accomplishing this. As I am a beginner in Android Development I cant find any that will work in android versions 2.3 and later.
You can always take a look at the SlidingMenu. The project can be found on GitHub. I guess you need to modify the behaviour a bit.
At the top there is the favorites/styles/all channels
i don't know what that widget/control is i need to know what it is
i am certain i saw it before i just can't seem to find it again.
then there is a listview which is easy to implement no help needed there
then the same control again, i need to know how to build it.
it looks like a native Android control, i know how i can make one just like it using image buttons but i am sure i am missing something.
P.S. this is an image from sky.fm app on android
EDIT: I Do no need help with the ListView i already did that
What i do need help with is how to make the "favorites/styles/all channels" buttons if there is a way to do natively.
If there isn't a way to do natively, and you are sure just say there isn't a way to do natively ( that would be a good answer )
the perfect answer would be a working code, but i am not lazy i am already implementing the code my self
There's no native control for this. It's probably a Button or maybe ToggleButton. You could create a background xml with different states for selected true or false. And when you click the button toggle the selected state.
Top might be a custom tab layout, or just a bunch of buttons with custom styling.
Main part looks like a listview with complex row views.
Bottom almost definately is a bunch of buttons.
You can implement it using ClickableListAdapter.There is also tab implementation.try it.
Just make it using image buttons and put filters in your ListView, or create your own filter form scratch !
I am sure there is a better way to do what I am doing in my apps. The current one I am trying to improve is a list of military cadences. The way I am doing it now is by loading html files in a web view.
What I would like to be able to do is have one view set up and just be able to add the text portion of what I would be displaying with the html file.
What would be the best method. I know this is probably a pretty simple thing to do with a sting or array but I am at the very beginner level and would need to be pointed in the right direction to do it.
Sounds like you are searching for ListView. You can make a List of what you like tho show to the user and stick that with the an Adapter to the ListView.
