I have been attempting to implement the 'advanced' tabwidget example from google. But, when it tries to call tabHost.addTab(spec); I get a stack trace from the debugger. Sorry, I don't have the stack trace here, but I'm wondering if others have had this same issue (as this code had a number of typo's and missing information that stoppe...
Dear Android folks, I am having an issue with using TabHost in a new Intent of type TabActivity which I hope you can point me in the right direction. Funnily it works fine when I try to view it in the original Intent : setContentView(R.layout.main) I get a "forced closed" and within logcat, I get the following error even though my Ta...
I've tried the Tab Layout example, and I've also fixed the few typos in the example (and added all the activities to the manifest). However, when I run it on the emulator I get a NullPointerException on the first line that says tabHost.addTab(spec); So my question, of course, is. What is wrong with the example that would cause th...
Hi there, I've been trying to implement the tab UI described in this tutorial: http://developer.android.com/intl/de/resources/tutorials/views/hello-tabwidget.html I follow all the steps described in the process but I keep getting a runtime exception which I believe has something to do with the fact that nowhere in the tutorial I added t...
I have a TabHost that contains 5 TabHost.TabSpec. Each TabSpec is a ListView that is populated using SimpleCursorAdapter, with the datasource being an sqlite3 database. The layout used by SimpleCursorAdapter contains 2 TextViews which hold database data (one hidden - which contains the database record _id, and one displayed). The 3rd ...
Hey, I tried to use a background (480x320) for my tab content. Using a xml as drawable, I should be able to scale the image. This works fine outside the tabhost/tabactivity. If I try to use it inside the tabcontent, the scaleType doesn't work. He ignores every scaleType I tried. tabcontent: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Rela...
Hi In an android app I am using a tabview for an app and one of the tabs shows a webview. But the page is blank until the web page loads. how would one show a progress bar until the page loads. It cannot be in the title bar because that is hidden by the tabhost ...
I have a TabActivity with three tabs defined. The first tab is light-weight and renders in acceptable time. But the 2nd and 3rd tab, does need a couple of seconds to get visually rendered, after I click them. I would like to launch them, after I've loaded my first tab, in background for pre-cache. Once they are loaded, I can switch quick...
Is it possible to style the Android Tabhost to look like that of the iPhone? If not, is there any open source code that can show how to create Bottom Tabs for Andoid ? ...
My codes like this: public void removeTabForLogout(){ if (tabHost.getTabWidget().getChildCount()==4){ tabHost.setCurrentTab(0); tabHost.clearAllTabs(); tabHost.addTab(getTab1()); tabHost.addTab(getTab2()); } } private TabSpec getTab1(){ if (mTab1==null){ mTab1= tabHost.newTabSpec("...
I have a TabActivity with four tabs (each is its own Activity). Each tab defines its own onCreateOptionsMenu (and in some cases, onPrepareOptionsMenu). When each tab is loaded, an AsyncTask is kicked off to retrieve the data needed to populate that tab's list. If I switch between tabs very quickly (while they're still loading) and then ...
I'm having trouble with a WebView always filling the full screen and thus covering my tabs. Here is my code for the tabhost.. public class tabNZBMobile extends TabActivity { public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE); Resources re...
I have a code for populating content for tabs dynamically. First time it works ok, but when I want to replace tabs (and their content) with new content - tabs are changed but tabs' contents are not, how can I clear completely whole TabHost and replace with other content? TabHost tabHost = getTabHost(); Intent intent; TabHost.TabSpec spe...
Hi, I'd like to divide my tabs to 3 diffrent raws so each raw will have tabs of a similar activity( E.g. action games, board games, shooters games) How it can be done? Thanks, Eyal. ...
Hi, all I'm writing an application which contains many tabs, and sometimes the number of tabs may exceed five. So I want to make it behave like iPhone, which is, move additional tabs to a "More..." tab. I would like to know if this feature is supported by TabHost, or if there is any existing open source widget which can do the favor for...
Hello stackoverflow, I recently started Android programming and was working on my first program which displays a historic text document, sectioned by tabs via TabHost. I have limited my program to one activity and merely used setContent in my TabSpec's to switch between different XML views. The document has both unedited and corrected...
I see some answers here prefer views over activities as contents of tabs. Correct me if I am wrong. My understanding is that by switching out views, it's possible to keep the navigation flow inside a tab (more user friendly, I think). But I wonder how to manage the view stack then in case of the back button events. Also this could cause ...
Hi, I have a TabHost with 4-5 tabs. I want to have a similar bottom for all the tabs. Is there any way we can add a bottom to all the tabs? Or do I need to place the xml code in every layout file. Please let me know if any one has the solution. Regards Sunil ...
I'm just getting my feet wet with Android and have built a UI that contains a TabHost with three tabs. Each tab is powered by its own Activity. The first Tab contains a listview with a prepopulated set of rows and is built from a custom ArrayAdapter. The problem I'm running into is that none of the ListView rows are tappable. In ot...
My application needs to update tab indicator dynamically, I'm trying to do this by invoke TabSpec.setIndicator(), but it doesn't work.
