How can i add favourite (CheckBox/ToggleButton/ImageView) to my ListView?

Please help me.
How can i add favourite (CheckBox/ToggleButton/ImageView) to my ListView? ... I have never added a favourite button before so I would like to add one in listView with CheckBox or ToggleButton or ImageView .
Hope everyone understand my question
My code :
This is my ListAdapter
static class ListAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
private LayoutInflater inflater;
private Context ctx;
public ListAdapter(Context context) {
inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
ctx = context;
}
public int getCount() {
return RecipeName.length;
}
public Object getItem(int position) {
return position;
}
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
public View getView(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
final ViewHolder holder;
if(convertView == null){
convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.row, null);
holder = new ViewHolder();
holder.txtRecipeName = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.txtRecipeName);
convertView.setTag(holder);
}else{
holder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
}
holder.txtRecipeName.setText(RecipeName[position]);
return convertView;
}
static class ViewHolder {
TextView txtRecipeName;
}
}
This is my row xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/LinearLayout1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:weightSum="1"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:background="#drawable/row">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtRecipeName"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:textColor="#color/text"
android:textSize="16sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:layout_weight="0.04"
android:typeface="normal"
android:background="#drawable/button2"/>
</LinearLayout>

For adding image u can use ImageView same as TextView in the .xml file..
Just add the src of the image after it "android:src="#drawable/beach" like this.
Here "#drawable/beach" is the path of image.
`<ImageView
android:id="#+id/photo_image_view" //for id
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:scaleType="centerCrop" //this will display image in center
android:src="#drawable/beach" /> //path of image`

For Toggle Button..use the following code in .xml file
<Switch
android:id="#+id/toggle_switch" //give id so can use this in java code later
android:layout_width="wrap_content" //set width
android:layout_height="wrap_content" //set height
android:text="Toggle Button" // string to be displayed
android:textAppearance="?android:textAppearanceSmall" />
How it will look
Toggle Button

Hide the textview from included layout in Fragment class [duplicate]

I have a fragment class which uses Recycleview to show list of Text and Image.
How can I access Recycleview row items and set an custom text to any Textview or Hide the Desired Textview from fragment class.
This is my layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingBottom="4dp"
android:paddingLeft="2dp"
android:paddingRight="2dp"
android:paddingTop="4dp">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:scrollbars="none" />
<include
android:id="#+id/include_tag"
layout="#layout/row_item"/>
</FrameLayout>
and My row item layout is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res /android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/flower_Name"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="16sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:maxLines="1"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
android:textAlignment="center"
android:textColor="#E91E63"

android:text="Sagar Rawal"/>
<TextView
android:layout_marginTop="8dp"
android:id="#+id/flower_details"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="14sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:maxLines="3"
android:textColor="#673AB7"
android:text="This Text need to Be Change "/>
</RelativeLayout>
and my Fragment class i s
public View onCreateView(final LayoutInflater inflater, #Nullable final ViewGroup container, #Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
final View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_main, container, false);
View test1View = view.findViewById(R.id.include_tag);
mhideText = (TextView) test1View.findViewById(R.id.flower_details);
mhideText.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
return view;
But it doesn't work. and Textview is still Visible.
Please help. Thanks in advance.

You must have a custom ViewHolder which should extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder. In your ViewHolder you can link row item and you can access all views from your row layout.
Your custom ViewHolder looks like:
public static class MyViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
// each data item is just a string in this case
public TextView textView;
public MyViewHolder(TextView v) {
super(v);
textView = v;
//Note: To set custom text
textView.setText("My custom text");
//Note: To hide TextView remove comment from below line
//textView.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
}
Above code shows sample ViewHolder as MyViewHolder where you can access your views.
If you are passing parent Layout to MyViewHolder instead of passing TextView then you can find child views using v.findViewById(R.id.xxx)
Your adapter should contain similar code as below:
#Override
public MyAdapter.MyViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent,
int viewType) {
// create a new view
TextView v = (TextView) LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext())
.inflate(R.layout.my_text_view, parent, false);
...
MyViewHolder vh = new MyViewHolder(v);
return vh;
}
In above code snippet, creating instance of MyViewHolder by passing the view TextView. You can pass parent layout in your case its RelativeLayout from your row layout.
Use this ViewHolder to take any actions on views like set custom text to TextView or you can hide TextView as per your requirements.
To refer full example you can follow the android documentation or click here.
To achieve communication between ViewHolder and fragment you can use Interface.
Thank you!

Try doing this :
rowview = inflater.inflate(R.layout.row_item, container, false);
mhideText = (TextView)rowview.findViewById(R.id.flower_details);
mhideText.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);

Customize spinner that is in the menu or Action Bar

I know how to customize the spinner. In my case it is a little bit different. I cannot modify my code more than I have now. Normally, I am able to make spinner that is reachable from all activities in my app.
I am trying to put icon along the textview in the spinner drop down.
Here the code I have;
Spinner.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/spinner"
android:layout_width="150dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:drawSelectorOnTop="true"
android:spinnerMode="dialog"
android:prompt="#string/language_prompt" />
spinner_row.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/TextView01"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:addStatesFromChildren="true"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:padding="5dp"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textSize="17sp" >
</TextView>
<!-- Here I cannot use Relative layout. If I use it gives error like [java.lang.ClassCastException: android.widget.ImageView cannot be cast to android.widget.TextView]. Without layout I cannot implement ImageView. I am stuck here.
My activity class;
public class Base_Activity extends Activity {
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
//int flags = R.array.flags;
final Spinner spinner = (Spinner) menu.getItem(0).getActionView()
.findViewById(R.id.spinner);
ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(
this, R.array.languages, R.layout.spinner_row);
spinner.setAdapter(adapter);
spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener() {
What I want is to make is custom Adapter so that I can put image along the textview in spinner list. I am not able to make normal way that I checked in many tutorials. I think it's because I am creating spinner in onCreateOptionsMenu() constructor.

u can take a look at this tutorial on AndroidHive
http://www.androidhive.info/2013/11/android-working-with-action-bar/
code snippet
// Spinner title navigation data
navSpinner = new ArrayList<SpinnerNavItem>();
navSpinner.add(new SpinnerNavItem("Local", R.drawable.ic_location));
navSpinner
.add(new SpinnerNavItem("My Places", R.drawable.ic_my_places));
navSpinner.add(new SpinnerNavItem("Checkins", R.drawable.ic_checkin));
navSpinner.add(new SpinnerNavItem("Latitude", R.drawable.ic_latitude));
// title drop down adapter
adapter = new TitleNavigationAdapter(getApplicationContext(),
navSpinner);
getView() and getDropDownView() from TitleNavigationAdapter
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
if (convertView == null) {
LayoutInflater mInflater = (LayoutInflater)
context.getSystemService(Activity.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
convertView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.list_item_title_navigation, null);
}
imgIcon = (ImageView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.imgIcon);
txtTitle = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.txtTitle);
imgIcon.setImageResource(spinnerNavItem.get(position).getIcon());
imgIcon.setVisibility(View.GONE);
txtTitle.setText(spinnerNavItem.get(position).getTitle());
return convertView;
}
#Override
public View getDropDownView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
if (convertView == null) {
LayoutInflater mInflater = (LayoutInflater)
context.getSystemService(Activity.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
convertView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.list_item_title_navigation, null);
}
imgIcon = (ImageView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.imgIcon);
txtTitle = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.txtTitle);
imgIcon.setImageResource(spinnerNavItem.get(position).getIcon());
txtTitle.setText(spinnerNavItem.get(position).getTitle());
return convertView;
}
Download that code and u r good to go

change the spinner title bar style

How can i change the spinner title bar style.
I wish to change the title bar for the following items:
icon
title textsize,textColor and
background color
How can i do this?
please help me...i have searched google and more sites.am not getting any solution for this.so please let me know its possible.if possible means how can i develop this????please explain me.
EDIT:
This is my code:
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
R.layout.row, R.id.country, list);
spinner.setPrompt("Choose a Status");
// spinner.setTextColor("#FF0000");
spinner.setAdapter(adapter);
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new MyOnItemSelectedListener());
}

You have to create CustomSpinner,
To do so try this following way, it works well for me
Step 1: Create Custom Spinner Class
class CustomSpinnerAdapter extends CursorAdapter {
LayoutInflater mInflater;
private int cocktailname;
CustomSpinnerAdapter(Context context, Cursor cursor)
{
super(context, cursor);
mInflater = (LayoutInflater) context
.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
cocktailname = cursor.getColumnIndex(YourDatabase.CK_NAME);
}
#Override
public View newDropDownView (Context context, Cursor cursor, ViewGroup parent)
{
return mInflater.inflate(R.layout.dropdownspinnertext, parent, false);
}
#Override
public View newView(Context context, Cursor cursor, ViewGroup parent)
{
return mInflater.inflate(R.layout.spinnertext, parent, false);
}
#Override
public void bindView(View row, Context context, Cursor cursor)
{
//Setting the Value here
TextView paymentname = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.text1);
paymentname.setTypeface(textFont);
String cocktail = cursor.getString(cocktailname);
paymentname.setText(cocktail);
}
}
Step 2 : Call this Adapter
CustomSpinnerAdapter custom_spinneradapter = new CustomSpinnerAdapter(this,youcursor);
spnListCocktails.setAdapter(custom_spinneradapter);
spnListCocktails.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);
Xml for dropdownspinnertext
I am using Checked Dropdown Spinner
<CheckedTextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/text1"
style="?android:attr/spinnerDropDownItemStyle"
android:singleLine="true"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:background="#drawable/background_image"
/>
For spinnertext.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/text1"
style="?android:attr/spinnerItemStyle"
android:singleLine="true"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:gravity="center"
android:padding="4dip"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dip"
android:textSize="20sp"/>
Hope it helps

Using Java (Code):
spinner.setPrompt("Title")
OR
From XML:
android:prompt="#string/spinner_title
See this to change style

Android listview array adapter selected

i'm trying to add a contextual action mode to a listview, but i'm having some problems with the selection, if i make aList1.setSelection(position) it doesn't select anything, and if i make List1.setItemChecked(position, true) it works but it only changes the font color a little and i want it to change the background or something more notable, is there any way to detect the selection and manually and change the background, or i'm missing something?
the list:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<ListView
android:id="#+id/list1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
android:drawSelectorOnTop="false">
</ListView>
</RelativeLayout>
the adapter:
public class ServicesRowAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String[]> {
private final Activity context;
private final ArrayList<String[]> names;
static class ViewHolder {
public TextView Id;
public TextView Date;
public RelativeLayout statusbar,bglayout;
}
public ServicesRowAdapter(Activity context, ArrayList<String[]> names) {
super(context, R.layout.servicesrowlayout, names);
this.context = context;
this.names = names;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
View rowView = convertView;
if (rowView == null) {
LayoutInflater inflater = context.getLayoutInflater();
rowView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.servicesrowlayout, null);
ViewHolder viewHolder = new ViewHolder();
viewHolder.Id = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.idlabel);
viewHolder.Date = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.datelabel);
rowView.setTag(viewHolder);
}
ViewHolder holder = (ViewHolder) rowView.getTag();
holder.Date.setText(names.get(position)[2]);
holder.Id.setText(names.get(position)[1]);
return rowView;
}
}
with the use of a layout:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/idlabel"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:gravity="right"
android:text="#+id/idlabel"
android:textSize="20dp"
android:width="70dp" >
</TextView>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/datelabel"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#+id/datelabel"
android:textSize="20dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="90dp" >
</TextView>
</RelativeLayout

This is becasue in touch mode there is no focused or selection. You're on the right track using the checked state. You just need to use a state drawable with different states.
Steps:
1) In your row_layout.xml
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/item_selector"
>
2) Create a new xml file (match the name to the one you used in your row layout) in your drawable folder like so (note that I have a color.xml file set up so I can use #color/color, if you don't you can simply put a hex color code in there):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:state_activated="true"
android:drawable="#color/blue" />
</selector>
That's it. It's not reaql intuitive, but "activated" basically means "checked" when you have enabled the checked state.
With that setup (and enabling the list rows to be checkable) you will now have the background changed from whatever it is normally to blue when in the checked state. Add code to set that state in onTouch or onClick and you'll be all set. The background will stay that way until you touch another item.
