cannot resolve method 'getwindow()' in Activity

am trying to add this this line in my Activity builder.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_VISIBLE);
but I find find this error Cannot resolve method'getwindow'
as am trying to add my code like this
NewGuestCheck.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(TabsActivity.this);
builder.setTitle("Insert Table Name");
// Set up the input
final EditText input = new EditText(TabsActivity.this);
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.showSoftInput(input, InputMethodManager.SHOW_IMPLICIT);
// Specify the type of input expected; this, for example, sets the input as a password, and will mask the text
input.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT | InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT);
builder.setView(input);
// Set up the buttons
builder.setPositiveButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
final String Table_Name = input.getText().toString();
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(TabsActivity.this);
builder.setTitle("Insert number of Covers");
// Set up the input
final EditText input2 = new EditText(TabsActivity.this);
// Specify the type of input expected; this, for example, sets the input as a password, and will mask the text
input.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER | InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER);
builder.setView(input2);
// Set up the buttons
builder.setPositiveButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
String Cover_check = input2.getText().toString();
TablesFragment.Check_Items = ConnectionClass.Ret_dt("Select * From ChecksItems Where Check_ID = 0");
if (!TablesFragment.Check_Items.containsKey("Change_Temp")) {
if (TablesFragment.Check_Items.size() > 0) {
ArrayList<Object> Valrows = new ArrayList<Object>();
if (TablesFragment.Check_Items.get("Item_ID").size() > 0) {
for (int i = 0; i < TablesFragment.Check_Items.get("Item_ID").size(); i++) {
Valrows.add("");
}
}
TablesFragment.Check_Items.put("Change_Temp", Valrows);
}
}
if (Integer.parseInt(Cover_check) > 0) {
String st = ConnectionClass.Ret_Col("Select Max (CheckSerail) AS Ser From Checks_V where Officer = 0 AND OutLet_ID = " + ConnectionClass.OutletID + " And Rest_ID_Active = " + ConnectionClass.Rest_ID);

builder.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
dialog.cancel();
}
});
builder.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_VISIBLE);
builder.show();
as I need from this method that when the alert dialog start the keyboard starts automatically that I don't need to touch the edit text to show the key board
sorry if any thing is not clear and sorry for my bad english
I hope this case could be solved
by the way activity looks
public class TabsActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

There is a similar question on StackOverflow. You need to call getWindow() on the Dialog Class.

call getWindow() by giving any views reference.ex
getActivity().getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_VISIBLE);

Android - Cannot resize AlertDialog

I am trying to resize an AlertDialog, which I have done before, but cannot remember how I did it. Below is the code Ive used, but it just inst working. Is anyone able to point out what I am doing wrong.
AlertDialog.Builder alertDialogBuilder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity());
alertDialogBuilder
.setMessage(R.string.checkout_journey_selector_popup_title)
.setPositiveButton(R.string.checkout_journey_selector_popup_paylater_button,
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
CheckoutHelper.startReservationJourney(getActivity(),
collectibleItems);
}
})
.setNegativeButton(R.string.checkout_journey_selector_popup_paynow_button,
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
CheckoutHelper.startPrepayCollectionJourney(getActivity(),
collectibleItems);
}
}).create().show();
Dialog alert = alertDialogBuilder.create();
WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = new WindowManager.LayoutParams();
lp.copyFrom(alert.getWindow().getAttributes());
lp.height = 100;
lp.width = 50;
alert.getWindow().setAttributes(lp);
Thanks in advance

You should replace this
Dialog alert = alertDialogBuilder.create();
WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = new WindowManager.LayoutParams();
lp.copyFrom(alert.getWindow().getAttributes());
lp.height = 100;
lp.width = 50;
alert.getWindow().setAttributes(lp);
With
WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = new WindowManager.LayoutParams();
lp.copyFrom(alertDialogBuilder.getWindow().getAttributes());
lp.height = 100;
lp.width = 50;
alertDialogBuilder.getWindow().setAttributes(lp);
Or try this
alertDialog.getWindow().setLayout(600, 400); after alertDialog.show();
Try first and give me feedback

do like this
alert.getWindow().setLayout(width, height);
//then show it
alert.show();
instead of alert.getWindow().setAttributes(lp);

cannot be resolved or is not a field with some EditTexts

Ok so i have the following situation : I create some Editexts dynamically and i want to add another row of Editexts when one of the EditTexts from the last row is clicked.
I tried doing it the following way :
When the last row of EditTexts is created,i assign each of them an id
et.setId(997);
et.setId(998);
et.setId(999);
I declared each of them ;
public EditText camp1;
public EditText camp2;
public EditText camp3;
camp1 = (EditText) findViewById(997);
camp2 = (EditText) findViewById(998);
camp3 = (EditText) findViewById(999);
camp1.setOnClickListener(this);
camp2.setOnClickListener(this);
camp3.setOnClickListener(this);
And when i try to do this
case R.id.camp1:
inside a switch i get "camp1 cannot be resolved or is not a field"
What am i doing wrong ?
Is there a better way to detect when the last Edittext is clicked and create a new one ?
EDIT:

All you care about is the last editText, right? Just give the last editText an onClickListener that creates another editText. Then give the new editText the onClickListener and remove it from the the previous "last one".
like this:
camp1 = (EditText) findViewById(997);
camp2 = (EditText) findViewById(998);
camp3 = (EditText) findViewById(999);
camp1.setOnClickListener(this);
camp2.setOnClickListener(this);
camp3.setOnClickListener(new myListener());
...
//put this private class in the same activity as the stuff above
private class myListener implements View.OnClickListener {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
EditText editText = new EditText(YourActivityName.this);
editText.setOnClickListener(new myListener());
//TODO put it in your viewGroup
//Give the old EditText your standard onClickListener
view.setOnClickListener(YourActivityName.this);
//To change body of implemented methods use File | Settings | File Templates.
}
}

setId() does not add any variables to the R.id class because setId() executes at run-time, but R is generated at compile-time. Since you are creating dynamic views, you need to rethink your onClick() method. You might want to consider using a ListView to help you. You can also set up the three TextViews using a separate XML file, such as row.xml.

app rater not working correctly for me

can someone check this app rater code and tell me how can I have it dismiss on a customer request but not come right back after customer presses same back button at least give them 5 tries before all the conditions are met, thank you
public class AppRater {
private final static String APP_TITLE = "name";
private final static String APP_PNAME = "com.code.code";
private final static int DAYS_UNTIL_PROMPT = 1;
private final static int LAUNCHES_UNTIL_PROMPT = 1;
public static void app_launched(Context mContext) {
SharedPreferences prefs = mContext.getSharedPreferences("apprater", 0);
if (prefs.getBoolean("dontshowagain", false)) { return ; }
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = prefs.edit();
// Increment launch counter
long launch_count = prefs.getLong("launch_count", 0) + 1;
editor.putLong("launch_count", launch_count);
// Get date of first launch
Long date_firstLaunch = prefs.getLong("date_firstlaunch", 1);
if (date_firstLaunch == 1) {
date_firstLaunch = System.currentTimeMillis();
editor.putLong("date_firstlaunch", date_firstLaunch);
}
// Wait at least n days before opening
if (launch_count >= LAUNCHES_UNTIL_PROMPT) {
if (System.currentTimeMillis() >= date_firstLaunch +
(DAYS_UNTIL_PROMPT * 0 * 24 * 60 * 1000)) {
showRateDialog(mContext, editor);
}
}
editor.commit();
}
public static void showRateDialog(final Context mContext, final SharedPreferences.Editor editor) {
final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(mContext);
dialog.setTitle("Rate " + APP_TITLE);
LinearLayout ll = new LinearLayout(mContext);
ll.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
TextView tv = new TextView(mContext);
tv.setText("If you enjoy using " + APP_TITLE + ", please take a moment to rate it. Thanks for your support!");
tv.setWidth(600);
tv.setPadding(24, 0, 24, 60);
ll.addView(tv);
Button b1 = new Button(mContext);
b1.setText("Rate " + APP_TITLE);
b1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
mContext.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + APP_PNAME)));
dialog.dismiss();
}
});
ll.addView(b1);
Button b2 = new Button(mContext);
b2.setText("Remind me later");
b2.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
dialog.dismiss();
}
});
ll.addView(b2);
Button b3 = new Button(mContext);
b3.setText("No, thanks");
b3.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
if (editor != null) {
editor.putBoolean("dontshowagain", true);
editor.commit();
}
dialog.dismiss();
}
});
ll.addView(b3);
dialog.setContentView(ll);
dialog.show();
}
}

There is something strange here
DAYS_UNTIL_PROMPT * 0 * 24 * 60 * 1000
shouldn't be ?
DAYS_UNTIL_PROMPT * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000
You can also use DialogBuilder button options instead creating button manually.
Here is an example :
builder.setPositiveButton(R.string.rate_dialog_ok, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
}
});
builder.setNegativeButton(R.string.rate_dialog_never, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
}
});
builder.setNeutralButton(R.string.rate_dialog_later, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
}
});

How can I unsquash the buttons within my alertDialog?

I know I could solve this with a header but I'd rather not have one. Is there anyway to access the properties of the cancel button?
My code and an image of the AlertView is below.
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
AlertDialog.Builder alert = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
if(view.getId() == (getResources().getIdentifier("imageButton" + (i+1), "id", "en.deco.android.livehud")))
{
//alert.setTitle("Notes");
// Sets an EditText view to get user input
final EditText input = new EditText(this);
input.setText(table.seats[i].getPlayer().getNotes());
alert.setView(input);
alert.setPositiveButton("Ok", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton)
{
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
if(view.getId() == (getResources().getIdentifier("imageButton" + (i+1), "id", "en.deco.android.livehud")))
{
table.seats[i].getPlayer().setNotes(input.getText().toString());
}
}
}
});
alert.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {
// Canceled.
}
});
alert.show();
return true;
}
}

I'd reckon you'd need to set your EditText to a defined width, or fill_parent/match_parent.

setMinimumWidth() does the job. The code above it is simply to generate display pixels rather than pixels.
DisplayMetrics metrics = getResources().getDisplayMetrics();
float dp = 250f;
int pixels = (int) (metrics.density * dp + 0.5f);
input.setMinimumWidth(pixels);

you can just set a view for your negative button, like this:
alert.setNegativeButton(R.id.cancelButton, new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
// Some action to be done when clicked..
}
});
and you can create a layout with a button as a root like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Button xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/cancelButton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Cancel">
</Button>
where you will set the width of the button normally to wrap_content
Edit: there is also a AlertDialog.Builder setNegativeButton (int textId, DialogInterface.OnClickListener listener)
