[android-developers] Re: home screen widget drag or scroll

[Veeresh Kalmath]

ScrollView can be added to Widgets, for that need to do changes in the
android framework. Change the annotation of the view in framework
@RemoteView and build the framework and use them in widgets as in
activities. By this method we can use any views supported in normal
activities by changing the annotation to @RemoteView and use in
widgtes.

Thanks,
Veeresh

 You can't do scrolling with android's default launcher.
 But if you are using other launchers such as Home++/ADW/LauncherPro,
 you can do it using a standardized API across these launchers.

 Here are some articles on 
 those.http://gadgetsaddicts.blogspot.com/2010/08/android-scrollable-widgets...http://hpp.intuitit.mobi/for-developers#TOC-Building-Scrollable-Widget

   I'm pretty sure that it can't be done, sorry. All interaction with

   supports is click.

[android-developers] Widget not getting updated.

[Veeresh Kalmath]

Hi,

 I've created a widget and a service which supports the widget as part
of same application. Inside the service I'm starting multiple threads
and from the threads I'm getting the remoteviews of widget and
updating widget using api

updateViews.setImageViewResource(R.id.ImageViewArtistImage,
R.drawable.album_no_artist);
AppWidgetManager.getInstance(context).updateAppWidget(widgetId,
updateViews);

This call works some times and at times it does not work means, widget
is not getting updated.

Is there anything wrong in this?

As a part of same application I've some activities also, which are
launched from the widget. when activity is closed(inside onPause() )
I'm sending custom brodcast messages to the widget. This time widget
is getting updated.
Do I need to follow the same method in service also, by sending the
custom messages as broadcast?

Thanks in advance,
Veeresh
