android listview - android

I have created one list view.. it is having 5 items...
Now I want split the list items...
when user clickon the first listitem or focus on first item then immediately it has to show followed some text views or other things..but it has to show same list..
and agian same when he clickon or focus on the second item that first item has to be close and second item has to act some thing....

I think you need to implement the concept of "Expandable Listview", so that the clicking on one item, it will be expanded with their sub-items.
Refer the android-sdk page of Expandable ListView: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ExpandableListView.html
For having an example, check this site: http://mylifewithandroid.blogspot.com/2008/05/expandable-lists.html
Pls, check the below image, do you want to perform as same ????
If you want to do the same, it is already given in the "API-Demos" at Views/Expandable Lists/1. Custom Adapter.
Enjoy !!

The problem is that you cannot use the standard ListView in your case, because in the standard ListView, the View of each row has to be one TextView.
In your case, you need it to be at least two TextViews (The standard Text, and the one that's gonna show up onClick/onFocus).
You have to create your custom ListAdapter, and override the getView() function.
Here is a code snippet that shows how to do it properly:
Custom Adapter
In the getView(), you have to inflate the XML file that describes your List Row, and return it.
In your case, I believe your XML file should contain 2 TextViews, one visible and one invisible.
Then, to handle the clicks, you can set a onItemClickListener on your ListView in your Activity class.
The best way may be to have your Activity class implementing onItemClickListener, and to use this onItemClickListener to handle those.
In the onClick() function, you just have to set the Visibility of your hidden TextView to VISIBLE.

You need to build custom rows, and handle showing more text on each row, there is no easy magicall way of doing it, but inflating your own rows, and setting a couple of attributes visibility isnt all that hard either.

Alternate for a listview with single row

I have a ImageView with a TextView and Button. I have it currently in a custom list view, but I noticed now that I don't need to show more as one element (object). So I actually don't need a Listview to show the row (list entry). How can I show the list entry without a Listview?
You can put the elements of your custom listview item into a Layout, e.g. LinearLayout and simply add it to your activity's layout where you needed it.
You can set an OnClickListener for that layout, so user can click the whole thing.
I think you should use ListActivity. Then you can set up empty view for list. Here some tutorial: ListActivity and ListView Tips.
Also you can implement that logic with Recycler view by yourself or use library.
Here is solution from stackoverflow

Change imageview for selected item in listview

In my layout I have a button and a listview. How can I change the imageview of item I selected when the button is clicked. So lets say, I select 5 items, and after I click the button, images for those 5 items will be changed.
So I am confused what function I should use. Right now i used button.setOnClickListener but it seems wrong because only the very first item's imageview will be changed when button clicked. Should I use listview.setItemOnClickListener? Or is there any other way I can do this?
Thanks a lot!
Add a boolean to the data object in your adapter. Say you've got ArrayAdapter<MyDataObject>. Add some kind of "selected" field in the MyDataObject, and toggle it when you "select" the row.
Override getView in the adapter (you'll need a custom Adapter, btw. I'd just extend ArrayAdapter). When you render the row, if the "selected" field is true, show the "other" image.
When you click the button, call 'notifyDataSetChanged' on the adapter. The will cause the visible rows to refresh themselves (and call getView for each).
I think that'll work.
Since you only want images to change when you click the button, you'll need to have some kind of global boolean, so the getView won't show the image until the button has been clicked.
The complication here is, you have to deal with rows that may have been scrolled out of view, which don't have active views, but logically exist. It would be really hard to explain the concept here. I'd suggest some tutorials on ListView if you're not familiar with the recycling of row views.
You can used custom baseadapter for listview and setonclicklistener in the getView() method.... see tutorial here this is hope for help
You can use button click listener as well as on itemClickListener too but to make a image view in selected state in a list, you have to call setSelected method of imageview parent layout.
Please put a comment if you don't get me.
Thanks

Creating an Android GridView full of Buttons. Which Adapter?

I need to create a GridView full of Buttons, each labelled with text from a query.
Which Adapter should I use? A ResourceCursorAdapter, a SimpleCursorAdapater or something else?
(SimpleCursorAdpater seems like it would do the job, except I can't work out how to tell it to put the colum values as an attribute of the button, rather than the content.)
If the you're looking to handle the actual click event of the button (and not the actual parent grid item), I would just extend CursorAdapter and write your own custom CursorAdapter. Inflate your own layout containing the button, set the text, and set the click event.

Extended list view: Show text input inside once clicked

I am working on a UI where I have a list view. Each row has 2 information. One is Product name and the other is product ID stacked one over other. So each row has 2 lines of data.
What i want to do with this:
Once a user clicks on each row, it will further expand and show one input and one spinner. So it is basically for putting in Quantity and unit of measure.
Please let me know if this is achievable and if I can refer to some example.
What I need is more like
Taskos To Do List | Task List
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.taskos&hl=en
All i need is that the category will not be expandable. Only the items will be expandable. All i need is an example of such app and then I can take it forward.
I think it could be done... you would need to put the extra widgets in your row layout, populate them and hide them upon list creation, then in your onListItemCLick you could unhide them.
Note I have no idea if this would work, but it seems reasonable that it might and it's what I would try and do to achieve the goal.
listView cannot be expanded. however you can use an expandablelistView
But the kind of functionality you want cannot be done this way(I guess.).
You can use
registerForContextMenu("your list View");
to register your list view
onCreateContextMenu
for the kind of action you want to be performed in your case its dialog with EditText and Spinner to have input from user

Preselect items in listView Android

All i need is an idea or path to continue searching, i have a list of items that i add to a listview adapter. And i am trying to make some items in the list to have a specific background color (as an example) when the activity loads. Something like having those rows "preselected". The method public ListView getListView() does not help me much.
Thank you either way.
Need to set Multiple Choice Mode via setChoiceMode(), and then you can call setItemChecked() for each of the items you want checked. Then you probably have to make a custom adapter that overrides getView(), cast the parent to ListView and ask if the View (a list item) you are getting at the position given is in fact checked by calling something like getCheckedItems() on the parent. Then you can do what ever you want with that view, like set its background color etc.
