[android-beginners] Re: EditText
Can you post the code you used to programmatically create an EditText ? The following code snippet in an activity does what you want it to do. EditText e = new EditText(this); ViewGroup.LayoutParams vw = new ViewGroup.LayoutParams (ViewGroup.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT); addContentView(e, vw); Hope this helps, Balwinder Kaur Open Source Development Center ·T· · ·Mobile· stick together The views, opinions and statements in this email are those of the author solely in their individual capacity, and do not necessarily represent those of T-Mobile USA, Inc.

[android-beginners] Re: EditText
Thanks Mark, that worked perfectly! Maybe you could answer another easy question. In the same EditText window I am loading in some text to at the startup and I have set the horizontal scroll to true because one of the lines is quite long. And then it start scrolled to the right but I would prefer if it was to the left. Suggestions?

[android-beginners] Re: EditText appearance
You could create a colorstate list (xml file in res/drawable), for example http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/res/ColorStateList.html Here is an example i used for textcolors. Should work for HintColors too! res/drawabale/myedittextcolors.xml: http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";> Now you only have to assign it to your EditText widget. Edit the XML and change android:textColorHint="#FF" to android:textColorHint="@drawable/myedittextcolors" and it should work. This is usefull if you want to have different colors depending on the state of the edittext (i.e. if its focused, clicked, etc). For one color, use android:textColorHint="#FF" or android:textColorHint="@color/ mycustomcolor" if you have defined your color in /res/values/ colors.xml On Mar 10, 11:30 am, "Mr.No" wrote: > Hello, > how do i change the size, style, typeface of a hint? > If the EditText gains the focus the border-color changes to orange, > how do i set a other color? > > rgds > Mr.No --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.

[android-beginners] Re: EditText to String to int
The message seems a bit different from what I'd expect, but I think
it's a matter of using final. Final for a primitive means you can't
change it (and if it were an object, it means you can't reassign to a
different object, but you can change the internal state of it). So,
probably define totalCost as a member variable of your class and drop
the final keyword.

[android-beginners] Re: EditText to String to int
Ok I rearranged my code a bit and put the triggered code into public
voids. Here is the code that fires my function:
final String value = btnAddCost.getText().toString();
addCost(Integer.parseInt(value));
and here is the addCost() function:
public int totalCost=0;
public void addCost(int cost)
{
final TextView txtTotalCost;
txtTotalCost = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txtTotalCost);
totalCost = totalCost + cost;
txtTotalCost.setText("$"+totalCost);
}
this all compiles fine, has no errors, and no warnings; yet when I
enter a valid integer, (edittext is numeric only) it crashes the app.
Any ideas? I don't really know how to use the debugger yet.

[android-beginners] Re: EditText to String to int
You said "edittext", but what is edittext? It sounds like the name
you've given to an EditText, but I see btnAddCost.getText().toString()
which kinda makes me wonder if it's really a button you are trying to
get the text from. Are you sure that value is a number?

Don't worry about it. It's like writing a resume or some other document. You sometimes need someone to proofread what you write and sometimes you miss the most obvious things.

[android-beginners] Re: EditText getText() to string for notification
Because "message" is whatever text is in the EditText whenever this
bit of code runs. I assume this is ran in onCreate? Probably this is
blank unless you gave it a default value. What you might try is to
remove the message variable and then call text.getText().toString() in
the Toast.makeText method.
