**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Sep 09 02:59:59 2014 Sep 09 03:01:46 I will say that the iBEACONS are very very cool.... I can read one from 30 feet away... including the distance.. approx... also playing with some BT tech from TI... also very cool I can pair with an iPHONE, and send it messages, like temp and contacts. Sep 09 03:02:17 Its possible to use an actionbar with an unique fragment and send a value/data trought bundle or any other method to be available in the fragment onCreateView? Sep 09 03:04:12 oh wait its possible Sep 09 03:04:16 :^) Sep 09 03:05:57 IrishGringo don't ibeacons change their addresses several times per second? (like gimbals, etc) what is the reason for that ? Sep 09 03:06:57 no idea... still learning myself Sep 09 03:11:49 So I managed to implement my ArrayAdapter to the NavigationDrawer, but it seems to overlap another fragment or something. Ie I need to click a section to get my ArrayAdapter view, until then it uses another formatting. How can I fix this? Sep 09 03:24:01 i was wondering if there is any more articles like this? http://fernandocejas.com/2014/09/03/architecting-android-the-clean-way/ Sep 09 03:25:05 i'm interested to learn about how others do their project in terms of architecture Sep 09 03:25:19 and patterns Sep 09 03:27:17 ladies Sep 09 03:30:54 g00s: i know i should probably start moving my app towards a structure similar to that blog post you linked me, but it just seems like so much 'connective tissue' code before you actually do anything Sep 09 03:31:33 talking about connective tissue, xrays are back and my foot isn't broken but maybe ... ligaments :| Sep 09 03:31:48 I ended up making a semi-repository class with indexed collections so i can retrieve objects on their fields at o(1) Sep 09 03:31:53 you too? Sep 09 03:32:13 hey ron_frown Sep 09 03:32:27 sup player Sep 09 03:32:47 broke the distal end of my tibia and tore my ligaments apart Sep 09 03:33:27 ron_frown reading http://www.amazon.com/Great-Fragmentation-Future-Business-Small-ebook/dp/B00LCXK3R4 Sep 09 03:34:32 g00s: cool Sep 09 03:34:56 might be heading up to atheer in the next week or so Sep 09 03:34:57 ron_frown you ever hear of a social network called nextdoor ? Sep 09 03:35:03 actually first bit of android tech Sep 09 03:35:07 I"m actually excited about Sep 09 03:35:12 that and god damn googles tablet Sep 09 03:35:16 that they arent taking my money for Sep 09 03:35:29 nextdoor... no Sep 09 03:35:31 ron_frown oh there was an article about a whole slew of glass-like projects going on, but you weren't around i lost the link Sep 09 03:35:44 bah Sep 09 03:35:47 beleive me Sep 09 03:36:01 Ive talked to probably 80% of those guys Sep 09 03:36:10 got invited to meta Sep 09 03:36:27 but their hardware seems not so fantastic Sep 09 03:36:33 wouldnt impress our customers all that much Sep 09 03:37:14 atheer is what we really wanted to roll with Sep 09 03:38:00 glass is a big fucking joke Sep 09 03:38:15 google should just quit Sep 09 03:38:24 the butchered the os, and barely any support going o nthere Sep 09 03:42:07 How can a NavigationDrawer have both a listview and and ArrayAdater? I don't get it. Which is used when? http://pastie.org/9537910#4,13 Sep 09 03:44:22 ron_frown the glass stuff is the company you work at, or your own thing ? Sep 09 03:44:57 work Sep 09 03:45:16 one of the few places a wearable glass setup makes a hell of a lot of sense Sep 09 03:45:27 but google completely fucked glass Sep 09 03:45:41 only thing I think they did ok is being the first real competitor to the game Sep 09 03:45:54 anybody knows what this doesnt work? http://paste.ubuntu.com/8296112/ Sep 09 03:46:20 ron_frown what is work's application for it ? Sep 09 03:46:27 what mayth are you attempting there Sep 09 03:46:58 ron_frown: in my opinion that's all they really need to do. Take a look at every first ever built, first "smartphones", first "computers", etc.. They just need to have people realize it it technically feasable, and something good will ensue in the next 2-5 years Sep 09 03:47:31 But obviously Glass is by no means fot the masses Sep 09 03:49:01 nobody? Sep 09 03:49:10 http://paste.ubuntu.com/8296112/ why doesnt it work :( Sep 09 03:49:57 peyam: I have no clue what doesn't work, but maybe your variables need to be statis (or so we call it in C) Sep 09 03:50:03 static* Sep 09 03:50:56 https://www.atheerlabs.com/ Sep 09 03:51:03 I was very impressed with their tech demos Sep 09 03:51:07 blind leading the blind? Sep 09 03:51:24 its not glass concept sucks Sep 09 03:51:28 its that glass itself sucks Sep 09 03:51:44 camera sucks, screen sucks, its low performance, and try to do anything remotely complex it gets super hot Sep 09 03:51:48 google neutered android Sep 09 03:52:08 I couldnt in good concious recommend it for much Sep 09 03:53:35 It's ahead of it's time, but when batteries etc get tiny and performant enough, google will have laid the path for a great product. And I think that's what it's all about Sep 09 03:54:09 battery tech definitely isnt advancing fast enough Sep 09 03:54:25 a great product for a few geeks in SF Sep 09 03:54:31 But we're getting there Sep 09 03:57:47 atheer is already there Sep 09 03:57:53 honestly meta is close Sep 09 03:58:00 it was slow and kinda clunky Sep 09 04:00:21 ron_frown i think this is what i saw http://venturebeat.com/2014/03/30/which-smart-glasses-will-be-right-for-you/ Sep 09 04:00:37 but glass is consumer; atheer and epson are for professional use Sep 09 04:00:45 seemingly ;) Sep 09 04:02:21 for professional / industrial, probably matters less what it looks like ;) Sep 09 04:03:02 glass has been recently marketed more towards professional Sep 09 04:03:17 I mean I've been fucking with ours maybe an hour a day for a few weeks Sep 09 04:03:22 its murder on the eyes Sep 09 04:03:41 otoh, what does google mean by professionals - not sure but anyhow Sep 09 04:03:54 the epson unit was being used by firefighters and search / rescue Sep 09 04:04:17 haha Sep 09 04:04:22 all of them were meh specs Sep 09 04:04:31 for us it was glass/meta space glasses/atheer Sep 09 04:04:51 but meta space glasses in real life vs what they showed in their concept videos Sep 09 04:04:56 was huge diff Sep 09 04:05:19 does anybody know how I can Show a text in a textview and erase it using one button? Sep 09 04:05:35 come on now Sep 09 04:05:40 thats pretty elementary shit Sep 09 04:06:22 I dont know why my code doesnt work Sep 09 04:06:29 http://paste.ubuntu.com/8296112/ ron_frown Sep 09 04:06:58 wtf Sep 09 04:07:04 whats with all the modulous shit Sep 09 04:07:59 you mean you want to flip between a resource string and an empty string Sep 09 04:08:08 well. first time i click the button it shows the text, next time I click it it hide the text .. and so on. so everytime x is odd it shows the text Sep 09 04:08:17 yes Sep 09 04:08:24 i wana hide the text Sep 09 04:08:40 setText("") should do that I would think Sep 09 04:09:05 I tried it. didnt work Sep 09 04:09:08 nothing happens Sep 09 04:09:54 http://paste.ubuntu.com/8296226/ Sep 09 04:11:22 now I know Sep 09 04:11:27 y doesnt have to be a int Sep 09 04:11:32 it might be a decimal Sep 09 04:12:19 no.. still not working Sep 09 04:15:00 ron_frown: do you have any idea? Sep 09 04:15:32 ron_frown: my whole code: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8296258/ Sep 09 04:15:50 what Sep 09 04:15:54 what has to be an int Sep 09 04:16:28 nothing. I though for a seconde that the module should be a double. but I was wroong Sep 09 04:20:36 peyam: is this your first app ? Sep 09 04:20:43 yes Sep 09 04:20:56 peyam instead of using an int and a modulus, it would be clearer to simply do "shouldShowText = !shouldShowText; if (shouldShowText) { ... }" Sep 09 04:21:22 peyam: you should find simple examples to clarify stuff for you Sep 09 04:21:43 yes. but it should be very simple Sep 09 04:21:53 I really wana know what is wrong Sep 09 04:24:14 shmooz: can you help me? Sep 09 04:24:17 It a assignment Sep 09 04:25:13 peyam: you said x = +1; I think you meant x += 1; Sep 09 04:26:26 or x++; Sep 09 04:26:53 you are right. actualy i did some apps for android for some years ago. but I forgot all of it Sep 09 04:27:12 I use only Matlab on my school projects. Now im gonna test it again Sep 09 04:27:31 now it works Sep 09 04:27:34 thank you very much Sep 09 04:27:37 peyam: yes, replace x = +1; with x += 1; Sep 09 04:27:37 * g00s never used matlab Sep 09 04:27:54 you need to increment x for that to work Sep 09 04:28:14 peyam using for signal processing / dsp ? Sep 09 04:28:18 expensive as shit Sep 09 04:28:23 shmooz: thank you very much. g00s its a engineering program. Sep 09 04:28:42 g00s: automatic control and system theory Sep 09 04:28:56 peyam cool, what kind of control? Sep 09 04:29:08 Automatic control it's called Sep 09 04:29:24 ah, k - i only had basic control theory Sep 09 04:30:29 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_theory AND http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_control Sep 09 04:30:36 i did some fuzzy logic based control, pid, etc Sep 09 04:30:37 sorry about offtopics Sep 09 04:32:29 and one more thing Sep 09 04:33:54 http://pastebin.com/j7scaTrE i tried to make the text more beautiful and save time. it doesnt show as i wanted it. Sep 09 04:34:03 how do i change default navigation drawer icon Sep 09 04:34:26 peyam but what systems are you working with, ecological, economic, both, others, etc ? Sep 09 04:35:02 g00s: i dont have a job. just finished my education. I want to work with aeroplanes and stabilities but Economi is of intreset too **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Sep 09 18:02:05 2014 **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Sep 09 18:04:19 2014 Sep 09 18:04:50 try it Sep 09 18:05:32 https://code.google.com/p/maven-android-plugin/issues/detail?id=424 Sep 09 18:05:34 how lame Sep 09 18:05:50 the property being set is textSize, I did anim.getPropertyName(). Sep 09 18:08:11 I doubt your issue is with the ObjectAnimator. It does not reset the value when done Sep 09 18:09:35 well its just one line Sep 09 18:09:49 where could the problem come from if not from that line? Sep 09 18:10:06 Some other line Sep 09 18:10:11 :) Sep 09 18:10:11 there's no other line Sep 09 18:10:21 its a button that does that line Sep 09 18:10:52 Log the values set by the ObjectAnimator, very that it is indeed the issue Sep 09 18:10:57 verify* Sep 09 18:11:20 Sicp, err did you step through with a debugger and set a conditiona break ion when the value is reset? Might help. Cos that code you posted is only enough for a psychic ... Sep 09 18:11:36 "conditional break when the value is reset" Sep 09 18:12:29 I just verified that it's not: http://pastebin.com/TshFUVPY Sep 09 18:12:40 how, did you put a button and did that to a textview? Sep 09 18:14:27 Why would I need to? You're saying the issue is ObjectAnimator, so I cut out anything unrelated (like how it's started, and where the setter is) Sep 09 18:14:47 ok, here's the other mischevous lines that were at play without you knowing it! Sep 09 18:14:50 http://pastie.org/9539673 Sep 09 18:16:09 you know I have this animation running elsewhere in the code, yea..they dont reset Sep 09 18:16:38 but those are inside an animatorSet which I do playTogether() on and then start Sep 09 18:17:35 i have it moving textviews right and left Sep 09 18:18:36 well thanks anyways Sep 09 18:22:46 do you have to set oneshot = true? Sep 09 18:22:46 on your animationdrawable Sep 09 18:22:46 loll Sep 09 18:22:46 there aint no such thing Sep 09 18:22:46 yeah there is Sep 09 18:22:46 what are you talking about? Sep 09 18:22:46 it sounds funny, sorry Sep 09 18:22:46 tho i dont know if applies to objectanimator can't remember Sep 09 18:22:47 well im not using that, im using objectanimator Sep 09 18:23:04 come on, where's the new statue!! Sep 09 18:23:22 tore it down Sep 09 18:23:50 Sicp what's your code that updates? Sep 09 18:24:14 updates what? Sep 09 18:24:28 its just this http://pastie.org/9539673 Sep 09 18:24:56 maybe it shouldnt have a beginning value Sep 09 18:25:17 then it wont know where to go back! Sep 09 18:25:18 HA! Sep 09 18:28:13 ok, here's what's going on : it starts off with textSize as nothing, so it sets to the default textSize. I press the button it animates to 30 and stops Sep 09 18:28:23 every button after that is a jump like the one I was talking about Sep 09 18:29:00 where it increases by a number which I have not given it anywhere, then goes back to 30 Sep 09 18:29:39 if I manage to get more then two clicks on that button, it doubles in size before going back to 30 Sep 09 18:32:01 And you are you aware that getTextSize returns text size in pixels, and setTextSize sets the font size in sp? Sep 09 18:32:42 I dont use getTextSize anywhere, but I do setTextSize(30f) Sep 09 18:32:55 I mean that ofFloat thing, it takes 30f Sep 09 18:33:10 constructor not thing Sep 09 18:33:20 not even a constructor actually, haha Sep 09 18:33:27 static method Sep 09 18:33:52 You're only passing it one value, so it uses the getter to get the initial value Sep 09 18:34:11 I see, ok Sep 09 18:34:22 is that what's causing this? Sep 09 18:34:32 I don't know Sep 09 18:34:54 how would I give it in XML a starting value that will still make sense with the value its going to change to? Sep 09 18:34:58 cause XML I use sp Sep 09 18:35:00 You haven't been able to clearly state your issue yet. Just that ObjectAnimator is resetting the value, and that it's jumping around Sep 09 18:36:01 textView.setTextSize(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_SP, 65); Sep 09 18:36:01 gonna use that Sep 09 18:36:18 I don't even know what your expected result is. But either way, the setter and getter of text size is in two different.. formats, or whatever Sep 09 18:36:24 scaled pixels and pixels Sep 09 18:37:15 well the final result is here http://roadietuner.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/animation_small_with_iphone_black2.gif Sep 09 18:37:33 the textviews moving around and changing their sizes to the value I calculate as long as I am hearing audio Sep 09 18:37:57 not going back to their original values or anything, i give them the values they're going to move into next Sep 09 18:39:48 can I do this with something other than an objectAnimator if I want to have the size always be changing? Sep 09 18:39:57 cause Ive seen all the other solutions they all have a constant size in XML Sep 09 18:40:29 i want to constantly be changing the sizes Sep 09 18:41:32 thank you apple!!! we will get the better watch in 3-6 months ;) Sep 09 18:41:59 units was the word I was searching for Sep 09 18:42:14 You should probably make sure the start and end values are in the same units Sep 09 18:42:59 the start will never be visited again though Sep 09 18:43:11 as that method ofFloat is only taking destination animation size, doesnt go from x to y Sep 09 18:43:22 just from whatever it currently was (dont care what it was) to what I want it Sep 09 18:43:31 gonna use this to turn the float into sp http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5012840/android-specifying-pixel-units-like-sp-px-dp-without-using-xml Sep 09 18:43:41 So you still don't understand the issue.. Sep 09 18:44:22 no I do, just want to make sure that I am talking about a case whose start is the initial size of the textview, not hte start that you can pass into ofFloat() Sep 09 18:44:37 cause its gonna do getSize on it, is that in Px or Sp? Sep 09 18:44:39 Anyone familiar with this error message (from the Android Studio debugger): "Target VM is not paused by breakpoint request. Evaluation of methods is not possible in this mode" Sep 09 18:44:52 I can't find any online mentions of it besides in the source code of DebuggerBundle: https://github.com/jexp/idea2/blob/master/resources-en/src/messages/DebuggerBundle.properties Sep 09 18:44:59 (question previously asked in #android) Sep 09 18:45:04 actually i can see that Sep 09 18:45:19 pixels Sep 09 18:46:08 Sicp have you got some cerebral translation device coupled to irc ? Cause I'm sure I'm getting all your thoughts Sep 09 18:46:24 its disgusting isnt it Sep 09 18:46:26 haha Sep 09 18:47:13 not disgusting at all if your a 12-16 year old socialite girl … otherwise … yeah Sep 09 18:48:37 It's obvious he is suffering from the coder bending Sep 09 18:48:54 aka the bitwise madness Sep 09 18:49:16 who cares, when this is done the feeling is priceless Sep 09 18:49:20 lol, thats why i do it Sep 09 18:49:21 or the obsfucated delerium Sep 09 18:49:48 Sicp no need to make us all feel that way too Sep 09 18:49:50 ;) Sep 09 18:50:03 ok Sep 09 18:51:09 is there some other way to evaluate methods when debugging through Android Studio? Sep 09 18:52:13 Sicp; you want to feel like http://i.imgur.com/kvUU7.gif but instead you are http://wrozka.github.io/ppppp-pair-programming/img/frustration.gif Sep 09 18:52:38 lel Sep 09 18:52:56 JesseW_zonar: looks like your JDK version is too low? Sep 09 18:53:38 seems other people had same problem relating to their jdk version Sep 09 18:53:42 mgiht try switching it Sep 09 18:53:43 lasserix: hm. I can look into that, thanks. Sep 09 18:53:45 and seeing what happens Sep 09 18:54:39 hey Sicp is your translation thing fucking with your scaling thing? Sep 09 18:55:00 dont know what translation means but there is no translation going on Sep 09 18:55:18 just setting size to 30f while primary size is coming back in pixels Sep 09 18:55:21 that's the issue Sep 09 18:55:21 i am loooking at that link of the musical toner thing and Sep 09 18:55:26 it translates left to right Sep 09 18:55:36 that's done Sep 09 18:55:45 yeah i know, is it possible itnerfering with this? Sep 09 18:55:53 no Sep 09 18:55:56 lasserix: suggestion on a particular version to try? Sep 09 18:55:58 im doing it on a button elsewhere now Sep 09 18:56:06 JesseW_zonar: no idea sorry Sep 09 18:56:13 lasserix: no worries Sep 09 18:57:17 I'm so disappointed that the new moto x is so big... Sep 09 18:57:22 wider than the htc one? wtf Sep 09 19:01:10 translation is normally a move on an axis. or multiple. ie re-position as opposed to scale or rotate. Sep 09 19:01:31 well Sep 09 19:01:35 nothing Sep 09 19:01:50 sicp can you just post some code instead of totally unhelpful snippets? Sep 09 19:02:31 suuuuuuuure Sep 09 19:02:31 its probably some weird thing that is overriding something which is some minor detail in a line you fail to see that might help if you post like the entire operation for this scaling reset fluke Sep 09 19:02:41 mmmmmmmm yeaaaa Sep 09 19:02:43 lol Sep 09 19:03:26 http://pastie.org/9539765 Sep 09 19:04:29 it couldnt be something as dumbarse as the anim going out of scope? Sep 09 19:05:16 there's that pixelsToSp method too http://pastie.org/9539774 Sep 09 19:05:31 now it starts with 30sp, and is fed 30sp Sep 09 19:05:47 which is and can not be anything to do with it being reset. Sep 09 19:07:47 If you're on an xxhdpi device, that line would animate from 90sp to 10sp (assuming scaled density == density) Sep 09 19:08:43 yea it's wrong i know Sep 09 19:08:54 just all mud now, trying something else. Sep 09 19:09:02 Hi Sep 09 19:09:22 I'm trying to add InMobi as a network for AdMob Sep 09 19:09:36 AdMob ads play fine, but I get this error: Sep 09 19:09:46 E/EnterpriseContainerManager( 2471): ContainerPolicy Service is not yet ready!!! Sep 09 19:09:55 I tried googling, couldn't find anything useful. Sep 09 19:09:57 Any ideas? Sep 09 19:10:14 I get that error when InMobi ads are requested Sep 09 19:10:34 My issue turned out to be as simple as: use a breakpoint, not the pause button Sep 09 19:11:00 You're animating from getTextSize to whatever value you pass (lets say 30). If the current text size is 30sp, getTextSize would return 90 on an xxhdpi device.. Sep 09 19:11:08 So you animate from 90sp to 30sp Sep 09 19:12:06 Since the setter parameter is a text size in sp Sep 09 19:12:18 then how do you make it be equal regardless Sep 09 19:12:24 i got that method so that both would be sp Sep 09 19:12:27 btw. is there a way to measure a string in pixels? Sep 09 19:12:30 but the getter is in px Sep 09 19:12:47 do i put everything in px?? Sep 09 19:12:48 You'd have to convert the getter value to sp Sep 09 19:12:51 e.g. int pixels = Measure(view, textfoo, "my cool string"); Sep 09 19:13:00 So you're actually animating between two sp values Sep 09 19:13:12 monsi yeah its a paint method Sep 09 19:13:28 measureText for width, or getTextBounds (orsomethign like that) with for width and height Sep 09 19:13:31 both paint methods Sep 09 19:13:37 but I dont see where getTextSize is accessible Sep 09 19:13:44 isnt it automatically called?? Sep 09 19:13:49 Yes Sep 09 19:13:57 lasserix: thx - i'll check this Sep 09 19:14:20 and how do you plan to convert the getter value to sp Sep 09 19:14:23 lasserix: i'd like to switch a layout to 2 or 3 lines depending on the text and that would rock ;) Sep 09 19:14:24 does anyone know what "ContainerPolicy Service is not yet ready!!!" might mean? Sep 09 19:14:25 But you do know what you can pass multiple values to ofFloat Sep 09 19:14:30 yea Sep 09 19:14:31 And if you do, it'll animate between those values Sep 09 19:14:32 aah Sep 09 19:14:56 monsti yeah just use a static paint object remember to set text size on the paint object (and typeface /style if you change it) before Sep 09 19:15:28 so from pixelsToSp(textView.getSize()) to pixelsToSp(textView.getSize() + addedValue) Sep 09 19:15:39 lasserix: yeah i unified my UI element styles ;) Sep 09 19:19:35 Anyone here experimented with GeoLocations and calling PendingIntents to BroadcastReciever? geofences are successfully added but reciever is never called. the only time it is called is when i open my map inside my app. Sep 09 19:21:30 ok Im getting the size in SP to be 90 and the size without the SP method to be 30, seems legit Sep 09 19:21:44 I add 10 to it,becomes 40; legit Sep 09 19:23:49 ownageeeeeee Sep 09 19:24:30 http://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/dota2.gamepedia.com/7/74/Announcer_ownage_01.mp3 Sep 09 19:27:16 thanks SimonVT Sep 09 19:37:55 I am working on an app that runs a background thread that it is doing io processing through bluetooth, HID, etc. We have a couple of Activities and Fragments that receive these events and update the UI. If I am on an Activity or Fragment and make the connection I do not get UI updates until I go back to main menu then reload the view. Sep 09 19:38:53 is there a way to reload the activity or fragment while a user is viewing it? Sep 09 19:39:58 you should probably address "If I am on an Activity or Fragment and make the connection I do not get UI updates until I go back to main menu then reload the view." instead of reloading the activity just to refresh it Sep 09 19:41:47 if your connection in living inside the main activity why not just push down to whatever hosting the data viewed to invalidate Sep 09 19:42:02 eg find the listview in your list fragment and call notifyDataSetChanged on its adapter Sep 09 19:43:18 runOnUiThread plx Sep 09 19:43:25 we have a bunch of custom views Sep 09 19:43:50 that are loaded in a Fragment Sep 09 19:44:00 i think you can call invalidate on the parent viewgrop and it'll have all the children (your custom views) redraw themselves... Sep 09 19:44:32 do these events on activity/fragment.. do they come from bluetooth thread? Sep 09 19:44:42 here is one of them https://github.com/MAVProxyUser/NoTauLabsNag/blob/gridview/androidgcs/src/org/openpilot_nonag/androidgcs/fragments/Map.java Sep 09 19:44:56 you need to call notifyDatasetChanged on the main thread: not your bg thread. Post a message back to the main activity which should then know how to invalidate the datasets of its fragments. Sep 09 19:45:15 (via an implemented interface declared by the fragment maybe) Sep 09 19:46:22 how to fix this error please ? ***cannot resolve method 'schedule(java.util.timertask)'*** Sep 09 19:47:11 TimerTask ? Sep 09 19:48:04 StingRay_ i'm reading bits of apple news as it percolates to some places, seems pretty boring Sep 09 19:48:41 viperZ28: try calling getView() in your activity and calling invalidate on that view (that's the root of the fragment) which should force all the children views to redraw Sep 09 19:48:43 ugh, and that watch... Sep 09 19:49:01 then you can add an interface onDataInvalidated as rgr said and call it from your main / hosting activity when updates occur Sep 09 19:49:37 ok I will check into that, thanks Sep 09 19:50:31 g00s they innovated so much with the new iphone that the design is back to the 1st gen :) Sep 09 19:50:44 Your custom views should invalidate themselves when their data changes.. There's pretty much never any reason to invalidate views from outside of a View Sep 09 19:55:55 well i guess its cool the camera sensor uses phase detection for autofocus Sep 09 19:56:47 * g00s wonders if sony supplies any sensors with that to android oems, or if this is a first on a phone Sep 09 19:58:15 g00s not totally sure it's needed tbh Sep 09 19:59:45 how to fix this error please ? ***cannot resolve method 'schedule(java.util.timertask)'*** Sep 09 20:00:37 xar__ ugh, scheduleExecutionTime ? Sep 09 20:00:56 g00s, yup Sep 09 20:24:38 Hi guys, How do I allow only the native gallery app to be open when i want to pick an image Sep 09 20:24:39 is there a way to check whether the data you get back from photolibrary is a video or an image? Sep 09 20:24:44 in the function OnActivityResult Sep 09 20:25:56 meadhikari: you don't Sep 09 20:25:57 meadhikari: you use an intent to start up the photolibrary Sep 09 20:26:09 then implement onactivityresult to get the data back Sep 09 20:26:16 Sixmsj: if they have it and haven't disabled it, or switched to photos, etc, etc Sep 09 20:26:28 hardcoding to your flavor of gallery is a good way to get a broken app on different phones Sep 09 20:26:47 i misread his question dragorn ;] Sep 09 20:26:50 Sixmsj, i want to limit the photo selection to just the images present in the sd card, how would i do that Sep 09 20:27:07 they might not have an sd card Sep 09 20:27:38 meadhikari: write your own image browser then. But why would you want to do that? You're going out of your way to break standard user interaction & do things the user isn't expecting Sep 09 20:29:10 dragorn, all i wanted was compress the bitmap before sending to web service, to compress i needed the real path of the image which i was not able to get when image from google+ photo app was selected Sep 09 20:29:29 use mediastore Sep 09 20:29:35 meadhikari: you'll have to write your own image browser using mediastore then Sep 09 20:29:36 how would you compress a bitmap without causing out of memory error Sep 09 20:29:53 I'm having troubles making a generic white square in the eclipses activity editor Sep 09 20:30:12 i'm curious how you end up with bitmaps in the first place considering almost anything the user does to generate an image is liekly to make a jpeg Sep 09 20:30:19 and jpeg doesn't compress so well beyond what it already offers Sep 09 20:30:49 Tried using a textureView, but it's black by default and I can't figure out how to change it's color Sep 09 20:31:18 Glitches: make a generic view and set backgroundcolor in the properties Sep 09 20:31:22 Glitches: might do it Sep 09 20:31:32 dragorn, what my app does is get an image from either gallery or camera and sends it to web server Sep 09 20:31:50 meadhikari: kay. Sep 09 20:31:58 dragorn, so i get the bitmap, compress it, encode it and send it to web server Sep 09 20:32:04 meadhikari: You keep saying bitmap. Sep 09 20:32:11 dragorn, which part am i doing wrong Sep 09 20:32:22 dragorn: Sweet, worked Sep 09 20:32:48 dragorn, the image object is of type Bitmap what should i be saying? Sep 09 20:32:48 You take a compressed image, loadit as a Bitmap, compress it, then send it to a web server Sep 09 20:35:16 SimonVT, how would i display imageReturnedIntent in a imageview encode it and send it to the web service than? please help Sep 09 20:39:15 Write the file/inputstream directly to the OutputStream or whatever you're using to send data to the server Sep 09 20:39:26 Display it separately Sep 09 20:42:14 I'm sure there's a way to get a handle to any source the gallery passes to you, it shouldn't necessarily have to be a file Sep 09 20:48:59 I installed the new Eclipse and ADT now I get errors on all lines that has to do with the Android API. Any ideas? Sep 09 20:51:02 install the Android SDK properly? Sep 09 20:51:13 Yeah Sep 09 20:51:19 Well, I think so :) Sep 09 20:52:28 I suspect that some android library did not get imported properly. But how do I know if I installed the SDK properly? Sep 09 20:54:13 Looks like Android Dependencies doesn't contain any jars Sep 09 20:54:53 is there any way to copy & paste from desktop web browser into Keep ? Sep 09 20:55:08 in other words, can I access Keep from Play or something ? Sep 09 20:55:59 ah, keep.google.com Sep 09 20:56:03 nice ! Sep 09 21:03:40 how to add some buttons to the top bar, please ? Sep 09 21:04:16 hy all Sep 09 21:04:29 xar__: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/actionbar.html#ActionItems Sep 09 21:04:30 can you advice me a good audio library for android applications? Sep 09 21:08:41 dragorn, thank you so much ! Sep 09 21:09:30 meadhikari you can get local file/stream from things like picasso/gallery etc or photo app backed of g+ or drive etc Sep 09 21:09:52 though there are api variances for how to get it from JB to KK Sep 09 21:11:51 just a quick check, if I have a few fully overlapping layouts, a framelayout would be more efficient than relativelayout, correct? Sep 09 21:12:00 StingRay_, thanks for the help, i am displaying it directly from the uri and using getDrawingCache() from imageview to upload to the server, is it a good way? Sep 09 21:12:41 erm…is the drawingCache not optimised for the view and size ? Sep 09 21:13:04 as in almost nothing at all (other than visual) to do with the actual resource file Sep 09 21:13:49 so unless some1 corrects me, no… thats about the worst way you could do it :) Sep 09 21:14:42 so are yall still going by the back button guidelines, or treating it like the up button? I keep seeing apps that do it like the up button Sep 09 21:16:24 anyone know if you can tell AS/IJ to show the decoded strings in a string resource auto completion drop down? Sep 09 21:19:33 My project fails to import compat_v7 Sep 09 21:25:15 g00s: following the iphone launch ? Sep 09 21:25:49
