I am using a doughnut chart through achartengine and it is working fine except I can't figure out how to get the values associated with the region a user clicks on. It is my understanding through reading other questions that this is possible but the posted fixes aren't working for me. I have tried an onClick/Touch listener using getCurrentSeriesAndPoint but this always returns null. Here is my code:
final GraphicalView gV = new DoughnutChart().getView(getBaseContext(),
regionNames, regionSizes);
gV.setClickable(true);
gV.setFocusable(true);
gV.setOnClickListener( new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
SeriesSelection selection = gV.getCurrentSeriesAndPoint();
double[] xy = gV.toRealPoint(0);
if (selection == null) {
//update
} else {
//update
}
}
});
Let me know if there is any more information I can add.
My end goal will be to extract the name of the region clicked and then call another activity with that name to display more information about it.
The click and get selection is currently implemented for XYChart(line, bar,...) and for the PieChart, so there is no such support for the DoughnutChart yet.

so basically i have 2 problems.. 1st problem is the handler and runnable..
i have an image and i want to make it move..
so i wrote this
ImageView a = findViewById(R.id.os);
final Handler handler = new Handler();
final Runnable run = new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
float y = a.getY();
if(y > layout.getHeight())
y=0;
else
y+=7;
handler.postDelayed(this,3000);
a.setY(y);
}
};
handler.post(run);
when i run it, the app crashes...my layout is ConstraintLayout.
and i wrote this code in a method "onClick" so after clicking the button the image starts moving.
..
2nd Problem : i want to add alot of objects (enemies etc to make a game) but the problem if I do that using XML it will take a long time. imagine adding 200 objects and what if I wanted to repeat adding them after they get removed or changing their attributes ? i will need to define an id for all them and create objects in reference to their id's all of them ...so I needed to figure out how to add objects programmatically to the ConstraintLayout..so i Wrote this:
ArrayList<ImageView> bosses=new ArrayList<>();
ConstraintLayout d = findViewById(R.id.layout);
for(int i =0;i<200;i++) {
bosses.add(new ImageView(this));
ConstraintLayout.LayoutParams lay =
new ConstraintLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
lay.startToStart= d.getId(); lay.endToStart= d.getId();
lay.topToTop = d.getId(); lay.bottomToTop=d.getId();
bosses.get(i).setLayoutParams(lay);
d.addView(bosses.get(i));
}
and it crashes too....I'm trying to learn how to move objects and how to add them programmatically so I can create games but i keep facing these crashes. if anyone could help I'll be thankful.
How do I get an item id when I click on it without setting an "onClick" event in the xmk file?
I tried that:
private View.OnClickListener globalClickListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
int clickedPosition = (int) v.getTag();
// do something with position
}
}
But i don't understand how to use it
Hello!
Rebuild the method as follows:
private View.OnClickListener globalClickListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
}
}
Well, to get the target ID that you click, it is better to first define the attribute android:tag="target_id" in the XML file, and then access it within the called method when the target is clicked, using the v.getTag(). Of course, you can also get the clicked ID via v.getId() without doing so. You can check the ID from:
use if (v.getTag () == R.id.target_id), or parse it as follows:
String viewID = getResources (). GetResourceName (v.getId ())
Your code creates a listener without actually attaching it to anything, so it never receives click events. If you have, for example, a button that you want to respond to clicks, you can register your listener with it like so:
button.setOnClickListener(globalClickListener);
I'm trying to place a Like button in my app. After much searching I found that it is impossible to use me own custom button, so I am left only with implementing the default like button from the facebook sdk.
Since this LikeView seems to be a native android like view I don't really know how to put this into my libGDX app.
I would like to use this button only in a specific Screen and set its bounds so that it fits with the rest of my UI. Does anyone have an example of how to create this like button without using the XML (as it is done in all the documentation I have found so far).
Adding the following functions to my application makes it show in the correct position. Unfortunately the LikeView does not get the correct size, but is centered inside the view, which means changing the width/height just moves it.
public void GenerateLikeButton()
{
application.runOnUiThread(new Runnable(){
#Override
public void run() {
float x = 560 * game.global_scale;
int width = (int) (440 * game.global_scale);
int height = (int) (152* game.global_scale);
float y_from_bottom = game.screen_height - ((56+152+70) * game.global_scale + game.ad_height);
Gdx.app.log("like", "from bottom: "+ y_from_bottom);
likeButton = new LikeView(application);
likeButton.setLikeViewStyle(LikeView.Style.BUTTON);
likeButton.setX(x);
likeButton.setY(y_from_bottom-height);
likeButton.setObjectId(LIKE_URL);
likeButton.setVisibility(View.GONE);
application.layout.addView(likeButton,width,height);
likeButton.invalidate();
}
});
}
#Override
public void ShowLikeButton(final boolean visible)
{
application.runOnUiThread(new Runnable()
{
#Override
public void run()
{
if(visible)
likeButton.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
else
likeButton.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
});
}
I am trying to take all the rows from my db and add it to the current layout, also, making each row clickable in the layout to take the user to a new screen with the id...
Here is my current code, but stuck on that part... I understand that I can put an onClickListener, but then does it have to be a button?
For a visual representation refer to a notepad app on any device where each note title appears and clicking on it takes you to that note.
public class MainActivity extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
private Button add_new_dictionary;
// Database helper
private DatabaseHelper db;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// db setup
db = new DatabaseHelper(getApplicationContext());
// get all dictionaries
List<db_dictionary> allDictionaries = db.getAllDictioniaries();
for (db_dictionary dictionary_found : allDictionaries) {
// create new view for each dictionary name include id and make it
// dynamic and include onclick to take to dictionary_view screen
Button dictionary_button = new Button(this);
}
add_new_dictionary = (Button) findViewById(R.id.add_new_dictionary);
}
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if (v == add_new_dictionary) {
Intent add_new_dictionary_intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this,
add_new_dictionary.class);
startActivity(add_new_dictionary_intent);
}
}
}
To re-iterate the question: How do I go about dynamically taking rows from my db and adding it to my layout dynamically based on how many results are returned from the query? (However, the rows should be able to point to a new screen with the dictionary id)
All views in android can implement the OnClickListener interface. So no, it doesn't HAVE to be a button.
As you've decided to use the activity to handle this then you need to tell your code to pass the event to your implementation wihin your activity.
// create new view for each dictionary name include id and make it
// dynamic and include onclick to take to dictionary_view screen
Button dictionary_button = new Button(this);
dictionary_button.setOnClickListener(this);
A trick I use to store information is the setTag method which would allow you to retrieve the correct reference during your onClick:
dictionary_button.setTag(some_record_id);
Then retrieve it later:
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if (v == add_new_dictionary) {
Intent add_new_dictionary_intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this,
add_new_dictionary.class);
startActivity(add_new_dictionary_intent);
}
else (
Object tag = v.getTag();
//now launch the detail activity using the data from the tag
}
}
You should really look into ListAdapters and cursors to do this properly, but this method should get you going for now
If you need to pick data from a db and show it as a list (getting click events) you should probably look into CursorAdapter and ListView
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/CursorAdapter.html
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ListView.html
You can fins many examples on the web on how to use a cursoradapter and the listview
I have been unable to find a tutorial helping with multi-selects using cursors. As of right now my logic is working the way I want but the check boxes will not update properly. What am I overlooking?
return new AlertDialog.Builder(this).setTitle("Items")
.setMultiChoiceItems(cur, CHECK, EDATE, new DialogInterface.OnMultiChoiceClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int position, boolean checked)
{
DBM.open();
AlertDialog AD = (AlertDialog) dialog;
ListView list = AD.getListView();
list.setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE);
itemCur = (Cursor) list.getItemAtPosition(position);
if (checked)
{
//update query
DBM.setChecked(checkCur.getInt(checkCur.getColumnIndex(ID)), itemId, userId, 1);
list.setItemChecked(1, true);
} else
{
DBM.setChecked(checkCur.getInt(checkCur.getColumnIndex(ID)), itemId, userId, 0);
list.setItemChecked(1, false);
}
DBM.close();
}
}).setPositiveButton("OK", new DialogButtonClickHandler()).create();
Dialogs on android can't be modified. If you look at the source code you will see that dialogbuilder delegates all the presentation work to some components and you don't have access to them after creation. Thus changing the state of the components you use for building the dialog won't update the dialog components afterwards.
You can see this mechanism here and here : you don't have access to the access controller after onCreate has been called on the alert controller.
The best if you want to achieve this is to rebuild a new activity and give it a dialog theme.
You can just use the setCursor() method for AlertDialog. Its pretty simple so you probably wouldn't need a tutorial.
A relevant SO questions is here and the docs for it are here
So after digging into the issue a bit and going through a couple different iterations I finally found a solution that I am fairly happy with. With school and work pushing hard I have had little time outside to work on extra projects and I have been sitting with this solution for while now but unable to get it posted.
The final piece to my puzzle was finding the changeCursor function, this fixed the issue of the old data that no longer matched the DB to load. My current hurdle is the time it takes to check a box, there is an obvious lag from clicked to updated. I have found that mutliple records update when one is clicked. I have not been able to find a valid reason for these extra updates.
Below is the code I currently have implemented to have the multi-select working. This just the dialog code, for a working demo I will be posting a project on GitHub for a working prototype of it all in action. (Now made public, Multiselect Dialog)
I am a fairly new Android developer, majority of my Android knowledge has been self taught and learned through the knowledge of online resources. I was working on a school project and wanted to implement a multiselect in a dialog that would update the main activity with the selected choices. Please lend any advice you can on how to improve this.
Pros:
- Populates check boxes properly on load.
- Updates database when check is clicked.
- Keeps display updated after data change.
Cons:
- Must click check box to update value.
- Unable to undo changes made while in dialog. The values save onClick, I have not been able to think of a way to temporarily store the new values until confirmed by the user.
- A single click updates multiple records, also sometimes when choices scroll off the screen values update

// Because I do not know how to properly handle an undo in this situation
// I make the dialog only close if the button is pressed and confirms the changes
return new AlertDialog.Builder(MultiSelectDemoActivity.this).setTitle(R.string.multiSelectTitle)
