I may being going about this the wrong way, but I pretty much have the code almost there so I don't think I am too far off. I am trying to create Horizontal Linearlayout with two vertical Linearlayouts inside programmatically. I have created it in the xml to test it, but as I load data from the db I need to dynamically create the rows.
Here is what my xml looks like and what I am trying to create programmatically:
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:baselineAligned="false">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginLeft="25dip"
android:layout_marginRight="10dip"
android:background="@drawable/rounded_edges_white">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="120dp"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:id="@+id/imageView3"
android:contentDescription="personIcon"
android:src="@drawable/person_icon"
android:layout_gravity="center" />
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="1dp"
android:background="#f1f1f1"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dip" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Danielle"
android:id="@+id/textView81"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dip"
android:layout_marginRight="25dip"
android:background="@drawable/rounded_edges_white">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="120dp"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:id="@+id/imageView2"
android:contentDescription="personIcon"
android:src="@drawable/person_icon"
android:layout_gravity="center" />
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="1dp"
android:background="#f1f1f1"
android:layout_marginBottom="10dip" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Danielle"
android:id="@+id/textView8"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
So i can just duplicate that xml to get the layout I want. Here is the code I've created:
public void buildHome(){
DatabaseHandler db = new DatabaseHandler(this);
List<Person> people = db.getAllPeople();
LinearLayout parentLayout = (LinearLayout) this.findViewById(R.id.personList);\
float padding25 = TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 25, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
float padding10 = TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 10, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
float size120 = TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 120, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
float size80 = TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 80, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
float size = TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 1, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
float mBottom = TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 15, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
int count = 0;
int totalCount = 1;
LinearLayout rowLayout = null;
LinearLayout childLayout = null;
for (final Person peep : people) {
if(count == 2) count = 0;
Log.d("count", ""+count);
if(count == 0) {
Log.d("creating row", "true");
//create row layout container
rowLayout = new LinearLayout(this);
rowLayout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams rowParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
rowLayout.setTag(totalCount);
rowLayout.setLayoutParams(rowParams);
rowLayout.setBaselineAligned(false);
}
//create row layout container
childLayout = new LinearLayout(this);
childLayout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, 1f);
//left or right col
if(count == 0) layoutParams.setMargins(Math.round(padding25), Math.round(padding10), Math.round(padding10), 0);
else layoutParams.setMargins(Math.round(padding10), Math.round(padding10), Math.round(padding25), 0);
childLayout.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
childLayout.setTag(peep.getId());
childLayout.setClickable(true);
childLayout.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
SharedPreferences preferences = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(Main.this);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = preferences.edit();
editor.putString("personID", "" + peep.getId());
editor.apply();
Intent intent = new Intent(Main.this, List.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, 1);
}
});
childLayout.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.rounded_edges_white);
//set icon
ImageView icon = new ImageView(this);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams imageParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(Math.round(size120), Math.round(size80));
imageParams.gravity = Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL;
icon.setLayoutParams(imageParams);
icon.setContentDescription("personIcon");
icon.setImageResource(R.drawable.person_icon);
childLayout.addView(icon);
//horizontal line
View horizontalLine = new View(this);
horizontalLine.setBackgroundColor(Color.LTGRAY);
LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, Math.round(size));
params.setMargins(0, 0 , 0, Math.round(mBottom));
horizontalLine.setLayoutParams(params);
childLayout.addView(horizontalLine);
//Set name title
TextView titleView = new TextView(this);
titleView.setText(peep.getName());
LinearLayout.LayoutParams titleParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
titleParams.gravity = Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL;
titleView.setLayoutParams(titleParams);
childLayout.addView(titleView);
//add to row
rowLayout.addView(childLayout);
//add to parent view
if(count == 1){
Log.d("add to parent", "true");
parentLayout.addView(rowLayout);
}
count++;
totalCount++;
}
Log.d("size", ""+people.size());
if(people.size() % 2 != 0) {
Log.d("only 1", "true");
parentLayout.addView(rowLayout);
}
}
Here is what the log says:
10-21 17:48:41.586 24022-24022/com.example.app D/count: 0
10-21 17:48:41.586 24022-24022/com.example.app D/creating row: true
10-21 17:48:41.587 24022-24022/com.example.app D/count: 1
10-21 17:48:41.598 24022-24022/com.example.app D/add to parent: true
10-21 17:48:41.598 24022-24022/com.example.app D/count: 0
10-21 17:48:41.598 24022-24022/com.example.app D/creating row: true
10-21 17:48:41.598 24022-24022/com.example.app D/after the first row: true
10-21 17:48:41.599 24022-24022/com.example.app D/count: 1
10-21 17:48:41.599 24022-24022/com.example.app D/add to parent: true
10-21 17:48:41.600 24022-24022/com.example.app D/size: 4
SO its hitting all the right places and saying its creating row and adding to parent. This is the closest post to what I am doing linear layout inside linear layout is adding but is not visible
but he isn't really dynamically adding the extra rows. He has layout2 and 3 if he goes over.
This is what i am aiming for(repeating as many times as needed):
|---------------| |---------------|
| | | |
| | | |

| | | |
|---------------| |---------------|
|---------------| |---------------|

I have 4 items in the database but only row 1 with 2 items shows.
Thanks
