[android-developers] Re: Override default icons of BaseExpandableListAdapter
Yes, I tried to use ExpandableListView.setIndicatorBounds but this affects the stretching only on the x-axis. I couldn't find any function to do stretching on the y-axis. Anyway, there is always the dirty trick of designing your icon accordingly, but if you care about clear design, choosing this approach really hurts. I don't know how many of the messages in this forum the guys at Google read, but I would like to write that the Android SDK sometimes sucks big time... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Override default icons of BaseExpandableListAdapter
Actually ExpandableListView.setGroupIndicator doesn't do the job either, because it changes the icon for all groups. If you want to override the icons for minimized and maximized states, the maximized group icon will be different than the rest of the groups. It's not possible to implement this using ExpandableListView.setGroupIndicator. Such a basic thing appears to be rocket science! It's unbelievable... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Override default icons of BaseExpandableListAdapter
Hi TreKing, The ExpandableListView.setGroupIndicator does the job indeed, except it stretches the new icon. Is there a way to disable this stretching? I find it a bit strange that stretching is the default behavior instead of displaying an icon in it's original size. Any feedback would be very helpful. -Ali -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] ListView: How to Create a Complex Row?
Hi,
I would like to create complex rows in a ListView (all of the rows
will have the same appearance, except the displayed text message of
course). Following is, from where I would like to start. I want each
row of the listview contain two lines. The second line will display
two text messages; the first one will be bold and the second one will
be italic.
Desired listview row:
Text1
Text21 Text22
I want Text21 to be bold and Text 22 to be italic.
Below I give the custom layout which I created and the code which
extends ArrayAdapter by implementing ComplexRowAdapter. The problem is
that the GUI appears distorted (I indicated in the code which lines
cause the distortion). Do you have any suggestions what might be going
wrong here?
The custome layout file (complex_row.xml)
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?

[android-developers] Query the List of Favorite Contacts
Hi,
I'm trying to query the list of favorite contacts. I use the line
below:
Cursor cur = this.getContentResolver().query(People.CONTENT_URI, null,
People.STARRED + =?, new String[] { 1 }, null);
However, this doesn't work because NULL data is returned, even though
my list of favorite contacts is not empty.
Is there a way to query the list of favorite contacts?
Thanks in advance,
Ali
