You can view my > code and XML layout below: > --------------------------------------------------- > setContentView(R.layout.lunar_layout); > mLunarView = (LunarView) findViewById(R.id.lunar); > ViewFlipper vf=(ViewFlipper) findViewById(R.id.flip); > vf.addView(mLunarView, 0);
The error should be self-explanatory. You already have R.id.lunar as a child of the LinearLayout. > layout: > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > <?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"> > > <ViewFlipper > android:id="@+id/flip" > android:layout_width="fill_parent" > android:layout_height="fill_parent"/> > > <astral.effectsf.LunarView > android:id="@+id/lunar" > android:layout_width="fill_parent" > android:layout_height="fill_parent"/> > > > </LinearLayout> Make the LunarView be a child element of your ViewFlipper, and get rid of the Java code to try adding it to the ViewFlipper, and you will be set. Here are some projects demonstrating the use of a ViewFlipper: https://github.com/commonsguy/cw-android/tree/master/Fancy/Flipper1 https://github.com/commonsguy/cw-android/tree/master/Fancy/Flipper2 -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training in NYC: http://marakana.com/training/android/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
