Hi I need simple help from an android programmers
I've seen Facebook Messenger and noticed the chat icon that stays in the screen when you open any other application .
I want to do one like her but it's as simple, When the user clicks on it, it shows some other icons such as Float action button.
Thank you
You can start customizing this library, which aims to provide a similar experience to the Facebook bubble chat.
You can replace the drawing code with yours, or use an XML to inflate a view based on your needs.
I want to make a menu like on youtube account fragment in my app. When I search about menus I just get answers "How to make a ActionBar Menu". Do you know what kind of element this is and how I can create this kind of menu?
The stuff you've highlighted is probably either a ListView or RecyclerView that has a good material design.
Here is the Google documentation on RecyclerView's:
https://developer.android.com/training/material/lists-cards.html
And here is an example tutorial I have previously followed:

As the title states, how exactly can I use ViewPager to display a list of apps. Right now I'm using a GridView to display the list of apps on my device and it runs the app upon selection. However I wish to get a similar effect from launchers in the Play Store, the app drawer is split into different views and displays a set number of apps on one page. And when you swipe it goes to the second page and displays more apps.
How can I do this? At the moment I just have a simple GridView which can be scrolled up and down,
I have looked all around the internet and i have gotten no answers, I've taken a look at the aosp launchers src on github but it's too complicated to understand.
Thank to whoever answers my question.
You can use Jake Wharton's Android-ViewPagerIndicator in ViewPager to display your content. You can also try astutez's PagerSlidingTabStrip, it will me more suitable for your requirements. Implementation is very simple, you can also find the sample in the repository.
Android Newbie here! I spent all yesterday trying to implement a simple dialog in my android app. I realised there is no easy way out. I mean all i just wanted to show to user is a simple choice between importing a video into the app from the gallery or recording a live video. My Parent UI is already consisting of two fragments in a split-pane style(Details on the left, gridview on the right). Now i want to show the options for importing a video as a dialog. Turns out i have to create another fragment(DialogFragment), give the fragment a UI(ListView), create UI for the list items, create adapters for my list, override getView method for my adapter with custom logic. is there no shortcut to this? While this might make me sound lazy (which i'm not btw cos i love coding), what if i want to create 4 additional dialogs, do i have to do this everytime? is there no easy way out?
btw I'm targeting SDK 11 to 19 devices.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Have you had a look at the AlertDialog.Builder?
You could use this to build your dialog and then set your click handlers on setPositiveButton and setNegativeButton methods if you only want two options.
It was added at API level 1.
I would like to implement in my android app that I'm developing with the Android studio ide.
The swipe between the different tabs (fragment). I tried searching online and on StackOverflow but I could not quite understand.
My action bar is the classic one that works with Android above 3.0
If you can give me some advice or examples of aid etc. I shall be very grateful.
With this I thank you.
I suppose the Android ViewPager is what you are looking for:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/view/ViewPager.html
Here is a nice tutorial on how to implement it:
http://developer.android.com/training/animation/screen-slide.html
The basic idea is that you have multiple Fragments, each representing
a different Screen. The ViewPager enables the user to swipe between
the different Fragments and display different content.
Also take a look at this question:
How to implement a ViewPager with different Fragments / Layouts
And how to include the Support-Library: http://developer.android.com/tools/support-library/setup.html
