[android-developers] obtain rectangle on touch

[JCC]

Hello,
I don't know much about Android and I would like to know if you people
could help.
I draw a board using this:
private Rect selRect = new Rect();
for (int x = 0; x 20; x++) {
if( x%2!=0 ) paint.setColor(Color.CYAN);
else paint.setColor(Color.GREEN);
for ( int y = 0; y  20; y++) {
if ((x%2==0  y%2==0) || (x%2!=0  y%2 !=0))
paint.setColor(Color.GREEN);
else paint.setColor(Color.CYAN);
selRect = new Rect(x*squareSize, y*squareSize, (x
+1)*squareSize, (y+1)*squareSize);
canvas.drawRect(selRect, paint);
}
}

so I wanted that using the event onTouch wherever I touch it
selects (paints it in a diferent color)  that square that I touched.
so far I only reached the event.getX() and event.getY() but I don't
know how those can be usefull to get the whole square that was
touched.

Thanks in advance, any help would be much appreciated.

[android-developers] Re: Map point reload

[JCC]

Thanks a lot this onRetainNonConfigurationInstance worked for me. Not
on the planned way like google apis but worked as a flag to know
when it was flipped.
thanks Ibendlin I tried that aswell.

 Hi,

 For the GPS issue, to prevent it from starting  stopping on
 orientation change in your Activity, you can implement LocationManager
 in a Service then pass the Location objects back to the Activity. It
 is a fairly convoluted affair to setup but it does work.

 A simpler option - you might? also be able to maintain a reference to
 the Location Manager object (or some other class that acts as a
 container  encapsulates the LocationManager) through
 onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() which is specifically provided for
 handling orientation  other changes for the Activity.

 I've done the former but no the latter.

 Regards

[android-developers] Map point reload

[JCC]

Hello, I'm currently working with a map and getting the location of
the user and drawing a point on the map, but everytime I flip the
device the application triggers the GPS again (I can see the GPS icon
on the notification bar) and obtains a new reading.
Is there an easy way to prevent this? I don't know much about android
=/
also is there a way to check if the user has any network provider or
gps turned on?
thanks in advance.

[android-developers] Re: Map point reload

[JCC]

I found the way how to know if the provider is on but how to know if
its available? for example: I have the flight mode on so the mobile
network is not available but the wifi on... therefore when I use
something like:
boolean
active=locationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
always return true because the wifi widget is enabled but there is no
data availability... so is there a way to check if data is available?

Hello, I found how to know if the provider is on but it returns true
always even when there is no data availability.. I use flight mode so
there is no mobile data (3G) but keep the wifi widget on.. so using
something like:
boolean
active=locationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
will always return true because the widget is on.
so is there a way to check if there is data availability?

Did you added the Internet and GPS permission on the manifest?

something like:
uses-permission android:name=android.permission.INTERNET /
uses-permission
android:name=android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION/

 Hi,

 I tried the link below - in fact it is fairly similar to the
 Professional
 Android book example ;)

 The app starts fine and it does display a map grid but no map. I am
 using
 the google map api key assigned to my account for Android access to
 the
 maps.

 Any idea as to why this map shows up blank?

 Thanks again

but adding the rules isnt like defining the position of items?
because on the second one for example I got to say that it should be
below the first textview by saying
ageParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.BELOW,viewNombre.getId());

[android-developers] Relative layout java

[JCC]

Hello,
I created a relative layout by code in java wich basically is a list
on wich each row has 3 elements.. name, age and sex but then i want
that age be displayed below name and the image of the gender be
displayed on the right of the screen (not imediatly right of the
name).
the problem is that when I coded that, it just overlaps everything and
I got no idea what I'm doing wrong =S any ideas?
here is the code:

public class PersonasAdapterView extends RelativeLayout {
private final static int idNombreView = 0;
private static final int idEdadView = 1;
private static final int idImgView =2;
private TextView viewNombre;
private TextView viewAge;
private ImageView sexImg;
public PersonasAdapterView(Context context, Personas per) {
super(context);
//layout for name in textview
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams nameParams =
new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
nameParams.setMargins(10, 1, 1, 1);

TextView viewNombre = new TextView(context);
viewNombre.setText(per.getName());
viewNombre.setId(idNombreView);
viewNombre.setTextSize(19f);
viewNombre.setTextColor(Color.BLACK);
addView(viewNombre,nameParams);

//layout for age in textview
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams ageParams=
new 
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
ageParams.setMargins(1, 1, 1, 1);
ageParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.BELOW,viewNombre.getId());

TextView viewEdad = new TextView(context);
viewEdad.setText(String.valueOf(per.getAge()));
viewEdad.setId(idEdadView);
viewEdad.setTextSize(14f);
viewEdad.setTextColor(Color.BLACK);
addView(viewEdad,ageParams);

//layout for img
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams imParams =
new
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
imParams.addRule(CENTER_VERTICAL,ALIGN_PARENT_RIGHT);
ImageView imSex = new ImageView(context);
imSex.setImageResource(per.getSexImg());
imSex.setId(idImgView);
addView(imSex,imParams);
}
}

 You're asking about branding rights to the YouTube logo.

  I thought it was a group where to discuss things between
  android developers.

 There is a Android Discuss group for non-SDK discussions about Android -
 but even there I don't think your question applies. Just because you're
 doing something in an Android App does not make it about Android. Try some
 YouTube groups or forums.

[android-developers] Re: Youtube Logo

[JCC]

I actually searched and youtube offers the possibility to use it as
press as its mentioned on:
http://www.youtube.com/t/press_room_image_files
and also on here it mentions something but its about Youtube API:
http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/branding.html
 but im not using Youtube API, i just want to know if i can use the
logo for my button inside my app so when i click it it sends me to a
topic related in my app: like lets say:
my app has cooking and painting categories.. so adding a subcategory
on those i want to put a youtube button that it sends me to the
youtube app in android with the search cooking for example. and if
it doesnt have the youtube app, it launches the explorer with youtube.
so .. yeah.. the question is.. Am I allowed to use the logo inside my
app?

and @TreKing may I know why this has nothing to do with this list? I
thought it was a group where to discuss things between android
developers.
