[android-developers] Android widget layout doesn't change after rotation
See the layout xml: LinearLayout xmlns:tools=http://schemas.android.com/tools; android:layout_width=match_parent android:layout_height=match_parent android:orientation=vertical tools:context=.MainActivity xmlns:android= http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android; TextView android:layout_width=wrap_content android:layout_height=wrap_content android:layout_gravity=center_horizontal android:layout_marginBottom=10dp android:layout_marginTop=10dp android:text=Temperature Chart android:textAppearance=?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge / LinearLayout android:id=@+id/chartContainer android:layout_width=match_parent android:layout_height=wrap_content TextView android:id=@+id/textTemperature android:layout_width=wrap_content android:layout_height=wrap_content android:layout_gravity=center_vertical android:transformPivotX=0sp android:translationY=0sp android:rotation=-90 android:text=Temperature / /LinearLayout /LinearLayout then I insert a chart view into the chartContainer LinearLayout. The executing result is as the following picture: you can see the problem is, after textTemperature is rotated, it still occupy the room as before it rotated, bellow layout view confirmed this. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-qw0ryGAA_6A/UXo1t4C2RjI/AA8/Buvso--p66I/s1600/chart1.png My question is how can I make the textTemperature widget only occupy the width as it is looked like? that's, there is no additional blank between textTemperature and the chart. I know writing a customized widget or putting the rotated widget in an individual FrameLayout could accomplish this, I mean to seek there is any lighter way, such as a property, etc. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Android Widget with AlarmManager and Configuration
I want a widget that have a configuration activity, which asks some information to user. Once the information is provided by user I want my widget to be updated every 10 minutes. So I need an Alarm Manager. On every 10 minutes my widget fetches some data from my website and displays it on widget, for that I can use service. From many days I am trying to implement this. I googled a lot, but failed while putting all these together. I can implement alarm manager separately, I can implement services separately, I can use configuration activity separately. But when I put all these in a single project I get lots of error. Can anyone please refer me any document or example that may help me?

Re: [android-developers] Android Widget update problem
You need to create a pending intent which will send an event to your widget, then handle that event in your widget Intent intent = new Intent(context, MightyToggleWidget.class); intent.setAction(MY_HANDLE_BUTTON_EVENT_NAME); PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, intent, 0); views.setOnClickPendingIntent(button, pendingIntent); This will make the MY_HANDLE_BUTTON_EVENT_NAME event to be broadcast. Now you need to handle this event in your AppWidgetProvider implementation ...To do this you need to tell Android O/S that your AppWidgetProvider will handle the event, you do this by adding an entry in the intent-filter section like so:- action android:name=MY_HANDLE_BUTTON_EVENT_NAME / Now you need to actually handle the event. You need to override AppWidgetProvider's onReceive like so: - @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { super.onReceive(context, intent); if (intent.getAction().equals(MY_HANDLE_BUTTON_EVENT_NAME){ doSomething(); } } I hope this helps!

[android-developers] Android Widget onActive()
Hi Guys, I've created a Widget and I would like to do something every time it is on screen. By on screen, I mean if the user moves to a screen that contains this widget. I want it to fire something like the below function. @override public void onActive(Context context, Intent intent) { // Your widget is visible, do something. } Is there a function like this in the Android SDK? The Android clock widgets seems to function like this, whenever the user moves to a screen that has an Andorid clock Widget, it updates it's display to show the current time.

[android-developers] Android widget--table display
Hi all, I have an android widget that scraps information from a website. I want to display the data that I have gotten in a table form that's shown on my widget, but I don't know how. I have tried the following (but they don't appear to work)... First I tried adding in a table in my widget, but this isn't allowed, I think due to the limitations of RemoteViews. The next approach was to use a TextView and importing Html and I tried to make a table, but this isn't allowed either. I can get a table- esque layout, but it is not satisfactory. The third thing I tried involved making a nested list of LinearLayout's, but this didn't work either. It was here that I found out about the limitations of the thing. There will always be 6 rows but there will be an indeterminate number of columns. I'm all out of ideas about how I might get around this problem. Does anyone here know how I might solve this problem?

Re: [android-developers] Android Widget Design.
Chris, I don't have an online tutorial but we have covered this topic in a fair amount of detail in our 2nd edition of ProAndroid 2 (http://www.androidbook.com) from Apress. The coverage includes state management through preferences. The third edition that should be available any time soon have extended the material to also cover list based widgets in honeycomb. Here is my journal as I have developed material for those chapters. http://www.satyakomatineni.com/item/3299 Hope this will be of some help. the journal is useful if you are looking for answers to specific questions but if you are looking for a tutorial the book is much more helpful Thanks Satya Komatineni http://www.satyakomatineni.com http://www.androidbook.com On Mon, Apr 25, 2011 at 3:49 PM, Chris Ruskai cruskai...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I've been programming apps for a while now and want to branch out into the realm of widgets.
