I have a CursorAdapter which fetch data from SQLite Database and provides views for a list. Now I want to delete an item in list without deleting data from DB. As you can see here, it is possible to change view of specific item without changing the data-set. But removeViewAt(int index) is not supported in ListView. Is it possible to remove an item without changing DB?

@Amrnoid Here list uses `CursorAdapter`. – hasanghaforian Jan 06 '19 at 14:49

Are you able to add a new column with a boolean for `deleted`? You can change your adapter's `getView()` to hide those rows where `deleted == true`. – Dan Harms Jan 06 '19 at 15:04

@dharms How I can hide those rows? – hasanghaforian Jan 06 '19 at 15:13

Set the row's visibility to `GONE`. – Dan Harms Jan 06 '19 at 15:14

@Amrnoid Yes, it is an option that must work which I did not think about that. But I wait for a way without need to re-querying the DB. – hasanghaforian Jan 06 '19 at 15:15

@dharms setting visibility of view of row to `GONE` leaves the row empty; but the empty row and its bounds are visible. – hasanghaforian Jan 06 '19 at 15:45

You need to do it to row's parent view. If you are doing a child view it will not work. – Dan Harms Jan 06 '19 at 16:02
