Intents are for switching between activities (among other uses), not for changing the UI of a single activity. You can try calling setContentView() to the new UI when it is time to switch, but I am not certain that will work. What will work is to use ViewFlipper or another concrete ViewGroup subclass. These work like tabbed windows (i.e., multiple discrete "screens"), just without the actual tabs -- you are responsible for switching between them as needed. It will require some reworking of your code, such as perhaps combining the two layout XML files into one. The Animation2.java sample in the ApiDemos with the SDK uses ViewFlipper. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ -- Available Now! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
