Hi, could anyone propose good approach for following: I would need to have feature in my (simple) app of taking pictures and tagging them with some values.

I don't want to make better/different or whatever app for pictures so this isn't my field of interest, just want to have pictures taken and tagged, of course it has to work on most of phones.

I *guess* this means that the same layouts are used for reverse orientations as for the old (non-reverse) ones, but don't see this mentioned either. So it looks like up through 2.2, you can just use -land and -port, and 2.3 behavior isn't fully documented yet. -- Kostya 17.12.2010 16:57, Brill Pappin пишет: It would be a good idea I think to make sure there is something in the default, just in case some implementation doesn't actually look for it.

[android-developers] TableLayout two column?
Hi, I would like to have two column layout. In first column I would put 4 textview elements and in the second one I would put big picture.

[android-developers] Is there an easy way to make EditText look like TextView but still behave like EditText?
Note: I had troubles posting to android-beginners group, so I came here hoping this will work. Hello there, I want an EditText to look like TextView but still behave like EditText. I've tried applying TextView style to my EditText in my layout.xml file, like this: EditText android:id=@+id/lipsum android:text=Lorem ipsum android:style=@android:style/Widget_TextView / ..but I get an error within xml editor: Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'style' with value '@android:style/ Widget_TextView'). It is strange because @android:style/ Widget_TextView definitively exists - I double checked it in code via android.R.style.Widget_TextView. Another strange thing is that I don't get android:style offered in the xml editor while typing? There is android:id, android:text and everything else.. but not android:style?! Note: I consider the hard way (making EditText look like TextView) to be: extending EditText and overriding it's onDraw method. Nikolar PS: Check out http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/themes.html#styles. Why are id and style written without android: namespace? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
