[android-developers] Re: Stacking a ListView with other widgets below?

2009-11-14 Thread Mark Wyszomierski
One more question on this - it seems like if we use a header or footer
view - then our activity can not add any other views? Example:

 
// with header and footer views.
 

the above works perfectly with focus getting routed correctly etc. The
focus acts strangely in this case though:

  

  


  

if the list view has focusable items - then the focus jumps back up to
the top LinearLayout-button after hitting down key again. This is kind
of strange, should this be happening? To explain further:

  

  


  // listview is composed of:
  TextView
  TextView
  Button
  TextView

  

so focus is fine up until it hits the row with the Button. The button
gets highlighted (since itemsCanFocus=true), but then hitting the down
arrow key again jumps focus up to the top linear layout button,
instead of continuing focus to the next row of the ListView. Normally
I could just use a header view instead, but is there an undocumented
rule in which we cannot add other views to our layout if using a
ListView with setItemsCanFocus=true?

Thanks

When you add the footer to the listview you need to indicate it can
receive focus:

[android-developers] Re: Stacking a ListView with other widgets below?

2009-11-13 Thread Mark Wyszomierski
Hi Romain,

If I use a footer view, it can get focus, but its internal controls
cannot be focused using the scroll ball? For example, this is a simple
footer view:

  LinearLayout llFooter = new LinearLayout(this);
  llFooter.setLayoutParams(new AbsListView.LayoutParams
(AbsListView.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
AbsListView.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

   Button btn1 = new Button(this);
   btn1.setText("Btn1");
   llFooter.addView(btn1);

When I use the scroll ball the navigate to the footer, the entire
background gets highlighted, and I cannot access the button on the
layout. Is there some way of doing that for a better user experience,
or do users just have to touch with their finger?

Thanks
