Multiple choice list with custom view? - android

I've seen example com.example.android.apis.view.List11 from ApiDemos. In that example, each row takes the view android.R.simple_list_item_multiple_choice. Each such view has a TextView and a CheckBox.
Now I want each view to have 2 TextViews and 1 CheckBox, somewhat similar to the List3 example. I tried creating a custom layout file row.xml like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<CheckBox
android:id="#+id/checkbox"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text_name"
android:textSize="13px"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#id/checkbox"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text_phone"
android:textSize="9px"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#id/checkbox"
android:layout_below="#id/text_name"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</RelativeLayout>
Then in Activity's onCreate(), I do like this:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Query the contacts
mCursor = getContentResolver().query(Phones.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
startManagingCursor(mCursor);
ListAdapter adapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this,
R.layout.row,
mCursor,
new String[] { Phones.NAME, Phones.NUMBER},
new int[] { R.id.text_name, R.id.text_phone });
setListAdapter(adapter);
getListView().setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE);
}
The result kind of looks like what I want, but it looks like the list doesn't know which item of it is selected. Also, I need to click exactly on the CheckBox. In the List11 example, I only need to click on the item row.
So what do I need to do to make a multiple choice list with my custom view for each row? Many thanks.

You have to make your own RelativeLayout that implements the Checkable interface and have a reference to the CheckBox or to the CheckedTextView (or a list if it's multiple choice mode).
Look at this post:
http://www.marvinlabs.com/2010/10/29/custom-listview-ability-check-items/

The answer of Rahul Garg is good for the first time the list is loaded, if you want some rows to be checked depending on the model data, but after that you have to handle the check/uncheck events by yourself.
You can override the onListItemCLick() of the ListActivity to check/uncheck the rows
#Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
ViewGroup row = (ViewGroup)v;
CheckBox check = (CheckBox) row.findViewById(R.id.checkbox);
check.toggle();
}
If you do so, do not set the ListView to CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE, because it makes strange things when calling the function.
To retrieve the list of checked rows, you have to implement a method yourself, calling getCheckItemIds() on the ListView does not work:
ListView l = getListView();
int count = l.getCount();
for(int i=0; i<count; ++i) {
ViewGroup row = (ViewGroup)l.getChildAt(i);
CheckBox check = (Checked) row.findViewById(R.id.ck1);
if( check.isChecked() ) {
// do something
}
}

Each such view has a TextView and a
CheckBox.
No, it doesn't. It has a CheckedTextView.
So what do I need to do to make a
multiple choice list with my custom
view for each row?
Try making the CheckBox android:id value be "#android:id/text1" and see if that helps. That is the ID used by Android for the CheckedTextView in simple_list_item_multiple_choice.

The solution is to create a custom View that implements the Clickable interface.
public class OneLineCheckableListItem extends LinearLayout implements Checkable {
public OneLineCheckableListItem(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
private boolean checked;
#Override
public boolean isChecked() {
return checked;
}
#Override
public void setChecked(boolean checked) {
this.checked = checked;
ImageView iv = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.SelectImageView);
iv.setImageResource(checked ? R.drawable.button_up : R.drawable.button_down);
}
#Override
public void toggle() {
this.checked = !this.checked;
}
}
And create a custom layout for the list items using the new widget.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ax.wordster.OneLineCheckableListItem xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="4dp"
android:background="#drawable/selector_listitem"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/SelectImageView"
android:layout_width="60dp"
android:layout_height="60dp"
android:src="#drawable/button_friends_down" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/ItemTextView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="60dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="#string/___"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
android:textColor="#color/text_item" />
</ax.wordster.OneLineCheckableListItem>
Then create a new custom Adapter using the layout above.

It is possible by some trick
in your ListActivtyClass in method
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
//just set
<your_model>.setSelected(true);
}
now in you custom Adapter
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
if (convertView == null) {
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
convertView = inflater.inflate(textViewResourceId, parent, false);
}
if (<your_model>.isSelected()) {
convertView.setBackgroundColor(Color.BLUE);
} else {
convertView.setBackgroundColor(Color.BLACK);
}
return convertView;
}
this way you can customize the view in adapter when the item is selected in the list.

Simple example how to get a custom layout to work as custom checkbox:
private class FriendsAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<WordsterUser> {
private Context context;
public FriendsAdapter(Context context) {
super(context, R.layout.listitem_oneline);
this.context = context;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
final int pos = position;
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View rv = inflater.inflate(R.layout.listitem_oneline, parent, false);
rv.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
boolean checked = friendsListView.isItemChecked(pos);
friendsListView.setItemChecked(pos, !checked);
}
});
WordsterUser u = getItem(position);
TextView itw = (TextView) rv.findViewById(R.id.ItemTextView);
itw.setText(u.userName + " (" + u.loginName + ")");
ImageView iv = (ImageView) rv.findViewById(R.id.SelectButton);
if (friendsListView.isItemChecked(position)) {
iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.downbutton);
} else {
iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.upbutton);
}
return rv;
}
}

I found it very useful this little code: http://alvinalexander.com/java/jwarehouse/apps-for-android/RingsExtended/src/com/example/android/rings_extended/CheckableRelativeLayout.java.shtml
It is a great addition to #ferdy182 's http://www.marvinlabs.com/2010/10/29/custom-listview-ability-check-items/ content.

Got the solution ... You can get the clicks on the views (like checkboxes in custom layouts of row) by adding listener to each of them in the adapter itself while you return the converted view in getView(). You may possibly have to pass a reference of list object if you intent to get any list specific info. like row id.

I want to confirm that the Pritam's answer is correct. You need an onClickListener on each list's item (define it in the adapter's getView()).
You can create a new onClickListener() for each item, or have the adapter implement onClickListener() - in this case the items must be tagged for the listener to know, which item it is operating on.
Relying on the list onItemClickListener() - as someone advised in another thread - will not work as the CheckBox will intercept the click event so the list will not get it.
And finally #Rahul and JVitella:
The situation is that the CheckBox on a list item must be clickable and checkable independently from the list item itself. Therefore the solution is as I just described above.

OnItemClickListener - changing the click area [duplicate]

So I have a custom ListView object. The list items have two textviews stacked on top of each other, plus a horizontal progress bar that I want to remain hidden until I actually do something. To the far right is a checkbox that I only want to display when the user needs to download updates to their database(s). When I disable the checkbox by setting the visibility to Visibility.GONE, I am able to click on the list items. When the checkbox is visible, I am unable to click on anything in the list except the checkboxes. I've done some searching but haven't found anything relevant to my current situation. I found this question but I'm using an overridden ArrayAdapter since I'm using ArrayLists to contain the list of databases internally. Do I just need to get the LinearLayout view and add an onClickListener like Tom did? I'm not sure.
Here's the listview row layout 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="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
android:padding="6dip">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="0dip"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/UpdateNameText"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dip"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="0dip"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:id="#+id/UpdateStatusText"
android:singleLine="true"
android:ellipsize="marquee"
/>
<ProgressBar android:id="#+id/UpdateProgress"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:indeterminateOnly="false"
android:progressDrawable="#android:drawable/progress_horizontal"
android:indeterminateDrawable="#android:drawable/progress_indeterminate_horizontal"
android:minHeight="10dip"
android:maxHeight="10dip"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<CheckBox android:text=""
android:id="#+id/UpdateCheckBox"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
</LinearLayout>
And here's the class that extends the ListActivity. Obviously it's still in development so forgive the things that are missing or might be left laying around:
public class UpdateActivity extends ListActivity {
AccountManager lookupDb;
boolean allSelected;
UpdateListAdapter list;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
lookupDb = new AccountManager(this);
lookupDb.loadUpdates();
setContentView(R.layout.update);
allSelected = false;
list = new UpdateListAdapter(this, R.layout.update_row, lookupDb.getUpdateItems());
setListAdapter(list);
Button btnEnterRegCode = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnUpdateRegister);
btnEnterRegCode.setVisibility(View.GONE);
Button btnSelectAll = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnSelectAll);
btnSelectAll.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
allSelected = !allSelected;
for(int i=0; i < lookupDb.getUpdateItems().size(); i++) {
lookupDb.getUpdateItem(i).setSelected(!lookupDb.getUpdateItem(i).isSelected());
}
list.notifyDataSetChanged();
// loop through each UpdateItem and set the selected attribute to the inverse
} // end onClick
}); // end setOnClickListener
Button btnUpdate = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnUpdate);
btnUpdate.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
} // end onClick
}); // end setOnClickListener
lookupDb.close();
} // end onCreate
#Override
protected void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
for (UpdateItem item : lookupDb.getUpdateItems()) {
item.getDatabase().close();
}
}
#Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
UpdateItem item = lookupDb.getUpdateItem(position);
if (item != null) {
item.setSelected(!item.isSelected());
list.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}
private class UpdateListAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<UpdateItem> {
private List<UpdateItem> items;
public UpdateListAdapter(Context context, int textViewResourceId, List<UpdateItem> items) {
super(context, textViewResourceId, items);
this.items = items;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
View row = null;
if (convertView == null) {
LayoutInflater li = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
row = li.inflate(R.layout.update_row, null);
} else {
row = convertView;
}
UpdateItem item = items.get(position);
if (item != null) {
TextView upper = (TextView)row.findViewById(R.id.UpdateNameText);
TextView lower = (TextView)row.findViewById(R.id.UpdateStatusText);
CheckBox cb = (CheckBox)row.findViewById(R.id.UpdateCheckBox);
upper.setText(item.getName());
lower.setText(item.getStatusText());
if (item.getStatusCode() == UpdateItem.UP_TO_DATE) {
cb.setVisibility(View.GONE);
} else {
cb.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
cb.setChecked(item.isSelected());
}
ProgressBar pb = (ProgressBar)row.findViewById(R.id.UpdateProgress);
pb.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
return row;
}
} // end inner class UpdateListAdapter
}
edit: I'm still having this problem. I'm cheating and adding onClick handlers to the textviews but it seems extremely stupid that my onListItemClick() function is not being called at all when I am not clicking on my checkbox.
The issue is that Android doesn't allow you to select list items that have elements on them that are focusable. I modified the checkbox on the list item to have an attribute like so:
android:focusable="false"
Now my list items that contain checkboxes (works for buttons too) are "selectable" in the traditional sense (they light up, you can click anywhere in the list item and the "onListItemClick" handler will fire, etc).
EDIT: As an update, a commenter mentioned "Just a note, after changing the visibility of the button I had to programmatically disable the focus again."
In case you have ImageButton inside the list item you should set the descendantFocusability value to 'blocksDescendants' in the root list item element.
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"
And the focusableInTouchMode flag to true in the ImageButton view.
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
I've had a similar issue occur and found that the CheckBox is rather finicky in a ListView. What happens is it imposes it's will on the entire ListItem, and sort of overrides the onListItemClick. You may want to implement a click handler for that, and set the text property for the CheckBox as well, instead of using the TextViews.
I'd say look into this View object as well, it may work better than the CheckBox
Checked Text View
use this line in the root view of the list item
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"

Unable to check/uncheck CheckedTextView inside getView

I'm loading phone contacts in a custom ListView. Each row is a checkable LinearLayout containing a CheckedTextView and another TextView.
I'm feeding the list view with a custom ArrayAdapter. My problem is that I can't control CheckedTextViews inside getView(). For example when I try the following
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
View row = convertView;
if(row == null){
row = inflater.inflate(layout, parent, false);
}
CheckedTextView checkedTextView = (CheckedTextView) row.findViewById(R.id.checkedTextView);
checkedTextView.setText("A");
checkedTextView.setChecked(true);
return row;
}
That's supposed to check every text view whenever I scroll the list view, but that's not happening. Can anybody tell me how to do it?
EDIT: It's important to check it inside getView(), I can't just check all after setListAdapter()
EDIT2: This is the xml file showing the view of each row
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<com.example.multiplecontacts.CheckableLinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<CheckedTextView
android:id="#+id/checkedTextView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:checkMark="?android:attr/listChoiceIndicatorMultiple"
android:paddingBottom="0dp"
android:text="CheckedTextView"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/subTextView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Small Text"
android:paddingTop="0dp"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" />
</com.example.multiplecontacts.CheckableLinearLayout>
CheckableLinearLayout is a custom layout that extends LinearLayout and implements Checkable as I said before. And I've taken it from here
Did you set a checkMark property for your CheckedTextView in your layout xml?
For example: android:checkMark="?android:attr/listChoiceIndicatorMultiple
CheckedTextView is not just a checkbox with a text. You must also note, that CheckedTextView is not focusable, or clickable without some manipulation (since it was designed for ListView and therefore it's state must be controlled by ListView's setOnItemClickListener)
setChoiceMode should be set for a ListView.
And checking of the row inside adapter's getView should be done via: listView.setItemChecked(position, value)
#Pier-Luc Gendreau and #fox mentioned the solution in comments but not in answer, so posting answer on their behalf.
As mentioned by #AlexOrlov, CheckedTextView is not focusable, or clickable without some manipulation. So what you have to do is set item check using ListView, you can either do it from the adapter itself or from activity/fragment where you have ListView.
To do it from adapter,
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
if (//logic) {
((ListView) parent).setItemChecked(position, true);
}
}
From activity/fragment
if (//logic) {
listView.setItemChecked(position, true);
}
When ever you scroll list, every time it calls its getview() method. So, if you have any checkbox or any editbox in listcell it will reinitialize it.
My idea is to store the status (checked or unchecked) of checkbox. So here I used ArrayList first I filled it with false value then on its click event i used to store it actual status.
class MyAdapter extends BaseAdapter implements OnClickListener {
private ArrayList<Boolean> checks=new ArrayList<Boolean>();//Boolean type array to manage check box
private static LayoutInflater inflater=null;
public MyAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> d)
{
inflater = (LayoutInflater)context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
//fill with false values
for (int i = 0; i < d.size(); i++)
{
checks.add(i, false);
}
}
public int getCount()
{
return data.size();
}
public Object getItem(int position)
{
return position;
}
public long getItemId(int position)
{
return position;
}
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
View vi=convertView;
if(convertView==null)
vi = inflater.inflate(R.layout.<your layout>, null);
//Checkbox is of button type----android:button="#drawable/btn_check"
//make a selector xml for checkbox
checkBox=(CheckBox)vi.findViewById(R.id.check_box);
checkBox.setTag(Integer.valueOf(position));
checkBox.setOnClickListener(this);
checkBox.setChecked(checks.get(position));
return vi;
}
#Override
public void onClick(View v)
{
int viewId=v.getId();
if(viewId== R.id.check_box)
{
Integer index = (Integer)v.getTag();
boolean state = checks.get(index.intValue());
checks.set(index.intValue(), !state);
}
}
}
Update: Solution 2nd: You can put a boolean variable in your ViewHolder class. This boolean variable will used to define wether item is selected or not.
Hope this should help you.

Check box refresh issue in ListView with custom adaptor

I'm having a list View with each item composed of a collection of Textviews and a CheckBox.
I'm storing the state of the checkbox in the DB and updating it from a on clickListener .It works fine for the controls that are visible.By default all the checkbox's are in the checked state.
If there are 10 items and screen can accommodate 7, then when I Uncheck the first one and scroll to the 10th item and again scroll back to the first one. The first one looses its state( it gets checked again).I checked the DB for the rows state, which is reflected correctly. But the fetch in the BindView always get me the wrong state. I'm not able to pin down where the issues is. I have attached the list adaptor along with this for review...
// List Adaptor code
public class ListAdaptor extends CursorAdapter {
private LayoutInflater mInflater;
Cursor dataCursor;
Context context;
ListView mLv;
private static final String TAG = "Delete";
public ListAdaptor(Context context, Cursor cursor, ListView lv)
{
super(context, cursor);
this.context = context;
mLv = lv;
mInflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
}
#Override

if(sba != null)
if(sba.get(cursor.getPosition()))
tmp_Chk.setChecked(true);
}

You will want to override getView in your adapter. This function is called as views come into view when the list is scrolled. The convertView variable is the view that has just gone out of view as you scroll and is being reused. The convertView may be null so you should check if it is null and inflate a new row layout if it is null, otherwise you can use the convertView just like you would if you had inflated it. Now what is happening to you is that the view is being reused but you are not setting the state back to how you want it in the getView function. In this function you should use the position variable passed in to determine which item in your list the view is being connected with. If you store the state of the check in the list of objects you can then use the position to get the correct item out of your list. Use the object you retrieve from the list to either check or uncheck the checkbox in your row.
I am not really aware of CompundButton, but can you try the below code snippet,
tmp_Chk.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
if ( !tmp_Chk.isChecked()) {
tmp_Chk.setChecked(false);
Check_Uncheck();
} else {
Check_Uncheck();
tmp_Chk.setChecked(true);
}
}
});
if (cursor.getInt(11) == 0) {
tmp_Chk.setChecked(false);
} else {
tmp_Chk.setChecked(true);
}

OnItemClickListener Not Triggered on Android GridView

I have a Gridview filled by an Adapter which returns LinearLayouts each contains an ImageButton and TextView.
In the adapter I am binding an onClick and onLongClick event to the ImageButton.
I am trying to bind OnItemClickListener to the gridview but I don't know why that the onItemclicked never fired up.
It's my 6th hour without anything.
By the way;
OnItemSelectListener working perfectly on the Grid.
I am checking if some piece of code accidentally handles the onItemClicked but couldn't catch yet.
I need help guys.
gridView = (GridView) layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.gridview, null);
gridView.setOnItemClickListener(new ItemClickListener());
.
.
.
//inner handler class
class ItemClickListener implements AdapterView.OnItemClickListener {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int i, long l) {
Toast.makeText(mainActivity.getApplicationContext(),view + " clicked at pos " +
i,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
Do not use clickable objects in the grid. In that case Android cannot handle the click event of GridView.
Instead, use something to show a similar user interface view. Then handle that object's click actions.
Don't: put Button in the GridView to perform some click actions.
Do: put an ImageView instead of ImageButton and handle ImageView's click events.
If you wants to use Button or ImageButton then you need to write these attributes in your xml code of the widgets.
android:focusable="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="false"
Its works for me.
But in GridView, Try to avoid use of these widgets. You can use any other widgets in place of these (Like ImageView or any other).
Also make sure, that your ListAdpter returns true for
public boolean isEnabled(int _position)
for the position you want to click.
Hey guyz finally got a solution...
what we were doing is directly accessing the Layout inside the GridView, so the onItemClickListener finds it confusing to access the item.
So the solution is to apply the onClickListener inside the Adapter (i.e. normally ArrayAdapter)
so what i m trying to say is:
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
//Here row is a view and we can set OnClickListener on this
final View row;
ViewHolder holder = null;
if (convertView == null) {
LayoutInflater inflater = ((Activity) context).getLayoutInflater();
//Here we inflate the layout to view (linear in my case)
row = inflater.inflate(layoutResourceId, parent, false);
holder = new ViewHolder();
holder.imageTitle = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.text);
holder.image = (ImageView) row.findViewById(R.id.image);
row.setTag(holder);
} else {
row = convertView;
holder = (ViewHolder) row.getTag();
}
ImageItem item = data.get(position);
holder.imageTitle.setText(item.getTitle());
holder.image.setImageBitmap(item.getImage());
//Now get the id or whatever needed
row.setId(position);
// Now set the onClickListener
row.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Toast.makeText(context, "Clicked" + row.getId() + "!!",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
return row;
}
Try to set
android:clickable="false"
android:focusable="false"
I meet same problem too, because of several reasons.
So, here's my tips:
Extend BaseAdapter for your adapter;
Use OnClickListener inside the getView in adapter instead setting OnItemClickListener for GridView;
Avoid setting LayoutParams multiple times;
Check if position = 0, don't use convertView, inflate new View;
Set OnClickListener not only for parent View, but for any child View, if any;
Make all your Views clickable.
I just tested it on 4 devices, and this solution works as expected. Hope, it will help in your case.
Correct me, if I made something wrong.
Layout code XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="100dp"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:background="#273238"
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"
android:padding="1dp">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/open_image_item_imageview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:src="#drawable/loh"
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="false"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/open_image_item_textview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="false"
android:focusableInTouchMode="false"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
android:padding="4dp"
android:textSize="10sp"
android:ellipsize="start"
android:background="#55000000"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:text="image name"/>
</FrameLayout>
Adapter code Java:
#Override
public View getView(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
View view = null;
if(convertView != null && position != 0)
view = convertView;
else{
view = LayoutInflater.from(getContext()).inflate(R.layout.open_image_item_layout, null, false);
view.setLayoutParams(new GridView.LayoutParams(GridView.AUTO_FIT, size));
}
TextView textView = (TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.open_image_item_textview);
ImageView imageView = (ImageView)view.findViewById(R.id.open_image_item_imageview);
...
View.OnClickListener onClickListener = getOnClickListener(files[position]);
view.setOnClickListener(onClickListener);
textView.setOnClickListener(onClickListener);
imageView.setOnClickListener(onClickListener);
return view;
}

Can I make one ListView item have a different Text Color?

I have the layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/ListView01"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1.0"
android:textColor="#android:color/white"
android:dividerHeight="1px"
android:listSelector="#drawable/highlight_sel"
/>
</LinearLayout>
And the code:
private ListView lv1;
private String lv_arr[]={"Item 1","Item 2","Item 3","Item 4"};
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.newsmenu);
lv1=(ListView)findViewById(R.id.ListView01);
// By using setAdpater method in listview we an add string array in list.
lv1.setAdapter(
new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,
lv_arr));
}
I want the text color of Item 2 (or 1 or 3 or 4) to appear dynamically as red (denoting a new item) or white (default). Is there a way to do this?
I already have a selector present, which is why I used ListView. I've search the Internet and this site, and I have not seen this question broached.
So is it possible?
Yes everything is possible. you need to write your own adapter implementation basically overriding the getView Method in the adapter. search google and stack you will find many tutorials on how to write an adapter.
Writing a special adapter to override getView in simple adapter is the way to change the text color alternating on the lines of your choice in a listview. I took the example which has been repeated many times on this website and added a way to change the text color. position mod length to select the color position can be replaced with any scheme you like. The text view "business" can be the first line of your layout like mine--or use the android.R.id.text1.
public class SpecialAdapter extends SimpleAdapter {
private int[] colors = new int[] { 0x30FF0000, 0x300000FF };
public SpecialAdapter(Context context, List<HashMap<String, String>> items, int resource, String[] from, int[] to) {
super(context, items, resource, from, to);
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
View view = super.getView(position, convertView, parent);
int colorPos = position % colors.length;
//view.setBackgroundColor(colors[colorPos]); //old example
TextView tv1 = (TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.business); //new
tv1.setTextColor(colors[colorPos]); //new
return view;
}
}
Just use SpecialAdapter instead of SimpleAdapter in your app.
Here's an example of a getView method. Note that it's using a viewholder for efficiency. If you want to know more about that, let me know.
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
tempDeal = exampleBoxArrayList.get(position);
ViewHolder holder;
if (convertView == null) {
convertView = inflator.inflate(R.layout.list_item_example_box, null);
holder = new ViewHolder();
holder.divider = (RelativeLayout) convertView.findViewById(R.id.example_box_divider);
holder.merchantName = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.example_box_merchant_name);
holder.expireDate = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.example_box_expire_date);
holder.description = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.example_box_description);
convertView.setTag(holder);
} else {
holder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
}
if (tempDeal.isDivider()) {
holder.divider.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
} else {
holder.divider.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
holder.merchantName.setText(tempDeal.getMerchantName());
holder.expireDate.setText(tempDeal.getExpiryDateString());
holder.description.setText(tempDeal.getPriceOption().getDescription());
return convertView;
}
As you can see, I call the isDivider() method on my custom object (this method looks at a boolean set on data load). This method is used to turn the visibility of part of the layout on or off.
Alternatively, you could load a completely new layout based on this same concept.
