When the user switches to landscape mode (widescreen) I would like to have the handler located on the left. When I change the orientation from vertical to horizontal, the handler is placed on the right. I have defined my layout ...
Humbling expierence here and I think this one will make a fool of me, but...I'm trying to convert an ancient cash register program to .net.

Here is the .net c...

As of March 17th, I believe I have everything u...
I have a SlidingDrawer that pops up from the bottom of the screen and fills the screen about 80%. Even though the SlidingDrawer view is in focus, it is still possible to click on items, buttons and other elements in the view that is behind the SlidingDrawer.

Hi there, I am working on a video editing app and on my Wildfire the camera app uses a sliding drawer for image adjustments, but it doesn't only list the options (as icons) but when you tap an icon the actual functions or adjustments that you can make are also part of the sliding drawer (see image). I was wondering if I also could d...

I'm currently having trouble with a SlidingDrawer. I want it to be closed when the application starts so it doesn't get in the way. However, it is determined that it will be open, despite putting slide.close() in the onCreate() of my activity.
