How to set text in textview from array - java

I am trying to get the values I have in an array to a text view, I am using a ViewFlipper and I would like to change the textview at the same time the image changes.
for (int i = 0; i < imagens.length && i < categories.length; i++) {
ImageView imageView = new ImageView(this);
imageView.setImageResource(imagens[i]);
simpleViewFlipper.addView(imageView);
info_text3.setText(Arrays.toString(categories));
}
Animation in = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, android.R.anim.slide_in_left);
Animation out = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, android.R.anim.slide_out_right);
simpleViewFlipper.setInAnimation(in);
simpleViewFlipper.setOutAnimation(out);
simpleViewFlipper.setFlipInterval(5000);
simpleViewFlipper.setAutoStart(true);
The image part is working and setting the text to the textview is also working, the problem is that the textview is static and that the text in the text view is the entire array and I just want one value, I was thinking linking the array with the 'i' from the for sentence, how can I do this?

Try below,
info_text3.setText(categories[i]);

You can directly access arrays values at any index
info_text3.setText(categories[i]);
1. Create a layout with an image and a text view as mentioned below:
custom_view
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:layout_marginTop="#dimen/element_spacing"
android:text="Text" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:src="#drawable/yourimage" />
</LinearLayout>
2. Inflate that layout
View customView = activity.getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.custom_view, null);
3. Add custom view to viewflipper.
simpleViewFlipper.addView(customView);
FINAL CODE
for (int i = 0; i < imagens.length && i < categories.length; i++) {
View customView = context.getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.custom_view, null);
TextView info_text3 = customView.findViewById(R.id.text);
ImageView imageView = customView.findViewById(R.id.image);
imageView.setImageResource(imagens[i]);
simpleViewFlipper.addView(customView);
info_text3.setText(categories[i]);
}

Dynamically created TextView in FrameLayout has no width

I'm trying to add a TextView in code to a framelayout. This sits above an imageview in the z order of the framelayout. The ultimate aim is to allow the creation of a screenshot from the framelayout that shows the image and the text that has been overlayed on to it. I have this working when using a textview created in xml but not in the dynamic code version. The create bitmap method returns an error complaining about the width of the textbox being 0. In the code below I am trying to capture just the textview as an image to identify what the issue is, as the captured image from the framelayout did not contain the contents of the textview as expected. In doing this I was able to find the width error and I believe it is this that is the root of the problem. I have tried to set the textview's width using setWidth and also using the LayoutParams. The end result is always that the textview has no width although it can be seen on the handset clearly. I think I am missing something between the dynamic creation and the existing xml which results in the 0 width. Can anyone point me in the correct direction please?
The code is as follows
public void applyTextToImage(View view) {
// Do something in response to button
//Hide the virtual keyboard
InputMethodManager inputManager = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(this.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
inputManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow(getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(), InputMethodManager.HIDE_NOT_ALWAYS);
//Get the text to overlay on the image
EditText editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edit_message);
String message = editText.getText().toString();
//Bring the overlay layout to the front
//LinearLayout overlay_layout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.image_Overlay_Layout);
//overlay_layout.bringToFront();
//Apply the new text to the text box
/* Old code to get the view that is shown in the layout
TextView text_overlay = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.image_Overlay);
text_overlay.bringToFront();
text_overlay.setText(message);
*/
//New code to create a view dynamically instead
TextView text_Overlay = new TextView(this);
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN_MR1) {
text_Overlay.setId(Utils.generateViewId());
}
else
{
text_Overlay.setId(TextView.generateViewId()); //static class
}
FrameLayout image_Layout = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.image_Layout);
//View image_Layout = (View) findViewById(R.id.image_Layout);
//FrameLayout.LayoutParams fParams = new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(FrameLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,FrameLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
FrameLayout.LayoutParams fParams = new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(FrameLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,FrameLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
fParams.gravity = Gravity.CENTER;
// text_Overlay.setMaxWidth(image_Layout.getWidth());
// text_Overlay.setWidth(image_Layout.getWidth());
//image_Layout.addView(text_Overlay, fParams);
image_Layout.addView(text_Overlay, fParams);
Toast.makeText(this,"TextView Width: " + text_Overlay.getWidth(),Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
//TODO: Something has forced the dynamic layout to not be saved in the bitmap try removing the params and set the values on the textview itself
//TODO: for some reason the width keeps coming back as 0 could be that the image_Layout is 0 too
text_Overlay.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
text_Overlay.setTextAlignment(View.TEXT_ALIGNMENT_CENTER);
float pixels = TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 10, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
//text_Overlay.setWidth(250dp);
text_Overlay.setTextSize(pixels);
text_Overlay.setTextColor(Color.RED);
text_Overlay.bringToFront();
text_Overlay.setText(message);
text_Overlay.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
//End of new dynamic code
if (folderCheck()){
try {
String filePath = getFilePath();
int myId = text_Overlay.getId();
Bitmap bitmap;
View v1 = findViewById(myId);
v1.setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);
v1.buildDrawingCache();
bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(v1.getDrawingCache());
v1.setDrawingCacheEnabled(false);
// End imported code
streamBitmapToFile(bitmap, filePath);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Toast.makeText(this,e.getMessage(),Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
Log.e("Bitmap Creation","Couldn't create bitmap error as: " + e.toString());
}
}
}

The view has not been measured yet. Until the system does another layout pass, the view reports its width as zero.
In my opinion, you are better off leaving the TextView in the XML layout and simply making it invisible (android:visibility="invisible") until you need it, then make it visible prorammatically with setVisbility(View.VISIBLE). (Note that if you set it to be gone, it will also not be measured.)
For reference Karakuri pointed out the weaknesses and the path to follow to resolve them.
Extra code that was implemented for the listener is as follows.
IMAGE_CAPTURE_REQUESTED = true;
// New Listener
ViewTreeObserver vto = image_Layout.getViewTreeObserver();
vto.addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new ViewTreeObserver.OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
#Override
public void onGlobalLayout() {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN) {
image_Layout.getViewTreeObserver().removeGlobalOnLayoutListener(this);
}
else
{
image_Layout.getViewTreeObserver().removeOnGlobalLayoutListener(this);
}
if (IMAGE_CAPTURE_REQUESTED) {
//int myId = text_Overlay.getId();
//Toast.makeText(MyActivity.this, "Text Overlay Width " + text_Overlay.getWidth() ,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
overlayTextAndExportImage();
}
}
}); //End New Listener
The new overlayTextAndImportImage calls all the image creation routines after the layout has been redrawn.

ImageView inside ListView is ignoring all layout dimensions and filling the whole screen

I'm trying to create a set of 4 dynamically updating listviews of icons.
To do this, I've put my 4 listviews inside a gridview, and I'm using a custom layout for each listview item with a single imageview inside it. I'm handling changing the icon inside a custom adapter. I'm using the Picasso library to handle the icons, and all my icons are stored locally in drawable as .png files.
I'm not getting any errors, but when I run the app, all I get is a single icon that takes up the whole screen. I have a small imageview and a textview above the gridview that contains the lists of icons, but the one icon pushes even that out of the way.
This is my layout preview, and a screenshot of the app running in an emulator. (the result is the same if I run on my phone).
preview,
running
(apologies for not embedding, I'm new to SO, and don't have 10 rep yet haha)
I've tried resizing the image at runtime inside my custom adapter. I've tried setting the maximum width of the listview - both at runtime (since I want to adapt to different screen dimensions), and in the xml files. I've tried resizing the source .png files outside of android studio. Nothing's worked.

A note: I have a custom data management class that returns arraylists. That's tested separately and working fine. The arraylists that are being fed to the adapter are int arraylists of the drawable references.
Help! What am I doing wrong? I've been searching through SO all day and trying different things. The solutions posted in these questions haven't helped T-T:
How to set ImageView width in android ListView?
ImageView in ListView that expands maximum width
(that was a bit difficult to implement, and just created other problems - it seems like overkill to create a custom view class just for displaying an icon?)
Give fixed height to your Imageview in My listview layout:
Say Something like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_parent">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="120dp"
android:id="#+id/listImageView"
android:layout_alignParentTop="false"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="false"
android:layout_alignParentStart="false" />
</RelativeLayout>
I'm assuming #drawable/office38 is the image shown in your screenshot (taking up the whole screen)?
Try setting the dimensions of this image to something small, eg:
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
I know this may not be what you are actually looking to do, but at least it will show you if the problem is with that first ImageView or not and will free up space below it for the TextView and the GridLayout. It could be that the drawable is massive, and as you aren't specifying a set width/height or any scale options, it takes up all the space it can.
Also, have a look at http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ImageView.html#attr_android:scaleType which describes the different scaling options you have with an ImageView.
GOT IT.
sorry guys. It was a really dumb problem after all.
My listview adapter is working fine it turns out. The problem was in the imageview that was outside of the lists (tomoface) - for some reason, I decided to set it to a different drawable on runtime, and hadn't scaled that at all haha.

Creating more than one TableLayout in the same layout

I have a need to create more than one TableLayout with a varied number of rows in one XML layout.
In my main layout I have an empty LinearLayout, as shown below:
<LinearLayout android:id="#+id/resultsLayout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
</LinearLayout>
I declare this in my activity as so:
private LinearLayout linearResultsLayout;
linearResultsLayout = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.resultsLayout);
I have added a table_layout.xml and a table_row.xml to my Layouts folder:
Table_layout.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/resultsTable"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:weightSum="99"
android:background="#drawable/curvedbg"
>
</TableLayout>
Table_row.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableRow xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<TextView android:id="#+id/row_header" android:layout_weight="33" />
<TextView android:id="#+id/downstream" android:layout_weight="33"/>
<TextView android:id="#+id/upstream" android:layout_weight="33"/>
</TableRow>
My aim is to inflate the table and then inflate how ever many rows I require in to the newly inflated table whilst also passing data in the form of TextViews. The code below should give you an idea of what I'm trying to do. It doesn't work, however. NullPointerException.
private void createTable() {
String[] downResults = {"Downstream","2000","98"};
String[] upResults = {"Upstream","1000","78"};
String[] rowHeadings = {"","Bandwidth","QoS"};
TextView heading = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.row_header);
TextView downstream = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.downstream);
TextView upstream = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.upstream);
TableLayout newTable = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.resultsTable);
View table = inflater.inflate(R.layout.table_layout, null);
View row = inflater.inflate(R.layout.table_row, null);
linearResultsLayout.addView(table);
for(int i = 0; i < rowHeadings.length; i++){
heading.setText(rowHeadings[i].toString());
downstream.setText(downResults[i].toString());
upstream.setText(upResults[i].toString());
newTable.addView(row);
}
}
I assume it will be more complicated than how I'm trying to accomplish it.
You should probably use a ListView:
But, assuming you can't / won't, the problem you have is that you are referencing the wrong layout when you get your TextView objects. Your code should probably look more like this:
String[] downResults = {"Downstream","2000","98"};
String[] upResults = {"Upstream","1000","78"};
String[] rowHeadings = {"","Bandwidth","QoS"};
View table = inflater.inflate(R.layout.table_layout, linearResultsLayout, false));
View row = inflater.inflate(R.layout.table_row, linearResultsLayout, false));
TextView heading = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.row_header);
TextView downstream = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.downstream);
TextView upstream = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.upstream);
TableLayout newTable = (TableLayout) table.findViewById(R.id.resultsTable);
linearResultsLayout.addView(table);
for(int i = 0; i < rowHeadings.length; i++){
heading.setText(rowHeadings[i].toString());
downstream.setText(downResults[i].toString());
upstream.setText(upResults[i].toString());
table.addView(row);
}
Notice the row.findViewById and also the table.addView
EDIT: note the change in the layout inflater

Trying to add multiple views but get a blank screen

I created a custom xml file with a LinearLayout and TextView. I have a for loop that i want go through an ArrayList and add the view to a ScrollView for each object. Below is the code i tried to achieve this, but it just gives me a blank screen. I tried to see if the ArrayList was empty, but that's not it. I didn't really know what i was doing when i tried this. I just wanted to see if it worked, but it didn't so what's the problem?
for(int x = 0; x < runs.size(); x++){
inflater = getLayoutInflater();
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.run_layout, (ViewGroup) getCurrentFocus());
TextView name = (TextView) layout.findViewById(R.id.tvRunName);
name.setText(runs.get(x).getName());
llRuns.addView(layout);
}
Heres the run_layout xml....
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#drawable/run_background" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tvRunName"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#android:color/white"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp" />
Here's the Activities xml....
<LinearLayout 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=".YourRuns"
android:background="#181818"
android:id="#+id/llYourRunsLayout">
<ScrollView
android:id="#+id/svRuns"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/llRuns"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
Change (ViewGroup) getCurrentFocus() to null, becouse inflater.inflate() second parameter is parent of view, and when you start your activity for default no elements with focus. And you indicate two parents for view first on inflate, second when you say to add layout into llRuns.
for(int x = 0; x < runs.size(); x++){
inflater = getLayoutInflater();
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.run_layout, (ViewGroup) getCurrentFocus());
TextView name = (TextView) layout.findViewById(R.id.tvRunName);
name.setText(runs.get(x).getName());
llRuns.addView(layout);
}

Adding custom relative layout to one single liner layout

I have made following relative layout in an xml file lets say add_relative_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="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:id="#+id/addAccountLinearLayout">
</LinearLayout>
Above is the main layout in which i want to add copies of below Code file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/UIContainer"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/white" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/amountLabel"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:text="Amount"
android:textColor="#android:color/black"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<EditText
android:id="#+id/amount"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_marginRight="5dp" >
</EditText>
I have another android xml file named as Show_all.xml. It is a linear layout xml
I want to add this relative layout above as many times as i want in this show_all layout
currently i am using this code
private void callOnCreate()
{
linear = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.addAccountLinearLayout); // the layout in which i want to make dynamic copies of this layout.
layout = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.layout.ui_relative_layout_style); // name of xml File of above code.
for (int i=0; i < 4; i++)
{
Account account = accountArray.get(i);
linear.addView(layout, i);
}
}
I am getting Null point exception. Please tell me what to do .
Best Regards
Hello Umar I have no idea how you can use xml layout to add Dynamically But you can use Below Code to get Your Required thing add in to LinearLayout
public RelativeLayout createViewTOAdd(){
lp=new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(android.widget.RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,android.widget.RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
RelativeLayout mRelativeLayout=new RelativeLayout(this);
mRelativeLayout.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
TextView mTextView=new TextView(this);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams Textview_lp=new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(android.widget.RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,android.widget.RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
mTextView.setText("Amout");
Textview_lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_LEFT);
Textview_lp.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_VERTICAL);
Textview_lp.leftMargin=10;
mTextView.setTextColor(Color.BLACK);
mTextView.setTextAppearance(this, R.style.TextStyle);
//mTextView.setLayoutParams(Textview_lp);
EditText mEditText=new EditText(this);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams EditText_param=new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(android.widget.RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,android.widget.RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
EditText_param.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_RIGHT);
EditText_param.addRule(RelativeLayout.CENTER_VERTICAL);
EditText_param.rightMargin=10;
//mEditText.setLayoutParams(EditText_param);
//mRelativeLayout.addView(mTextView, 0);
//mRelativeLayout.addView(mEditText, 1);
//mRelativeLayout.addView(mTextView);
//mRelativeLayout.addView(mEditText);
mRelativeLayout.addView(mTextView, Textview_lp);
mRelativeLayout.addView(mEditText, EditText_param);
return mRelativeLayout;
}
Now How to add View in to LinearLayout is Below
mLinearLayout=(LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.mainLinearView);
mLinearLayout.removeAllViews();
for(int i=0;i<4;i++){
mLinearLayout.addView(createViewTOAdd(), i);
}
Hey your are using findViewById to get the instance of relativelayout which is not available in your current layout show_all.xml .thats why you are getting null pointer exception.So create separate layout for that specific relativelayout and names that xml layout file as UIContianer then try to use below code
private void callOnCreate()
{
linear = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.addAccountLinearLayout); // the layout in which i want to make dynamic copies of this layout.
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View vi = inflater.inflate(R.layout.ui_relative_layout_style, null);
for (int i=0; i < 4; i++)
{
Account account = accountArray.get(i);
linear.addView(vi, i);
}
}
