[android-developers] Re: how to deflate/hide(invisible) ViewStub from Menu (onOptionsItemSelected)?

2011-11-04 Thread Abhi
Hi Kostya,

I have a GalleryView in my ViewStub and I dynamically add images to
the Gallery. I would like to control from a menu option, the
visibility of the complete ViewStub view. So basically, when the
ViewStub is up displaying the gallery and I press the menu option, the
whole view gets hidden but the content (i.e. Gallery items) remain in
the stub. On pressing menu option again, the whole view is displayed
again with the gallery items selected earlier.

I don't know what you mean by replacing the stub with include and
toggle its contents' visibility. Could you elaborate a little more?

Thanks,

Abhi

 Inflating a view stub has two important properties:

 1) It's irreversible: once inflated, the stub's content is always there
 2) The stub's content replaces the stub.

 Sounds like you need to replace the stub with include and toggle its
 contents' visibility as needed.

  I keep getting NullPointerException trying to deflate or make
  invisible the ViewStub from my UI. I just wanted to be sure I am doing
  it right.

  I am inflating my ViewStub in onItemLongClick method of GalleryView by
  doing the following:

  @Override
               public boolean onItemLongClick(AdapterView?  arg0, View
  viu, int arg2,
                       long arg3) {
                   Toast.makeText(GalleryView.this, New item added to
  Favorites, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                   favsCount++;

                  //checking to see if ViewStub is already inflated or
  not
                   if(!stubvis){
                   stub = (ViewStub) findViewById(R.id.stub1);
                   stub.inflate();
                   stubvis = true;
                   trayUP = true;
                   }

                   return true;
               }

               });

  and then in onPrepareOptionsMenu() I am adding the menu item based on
  the visibility of ViewStub. If inflated and visible, I create a menu
  item to hide it, otherwise, a menu item to show/make visible.

  @Override

  public boolean onPrepareOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {

  menu.clear();

  if(trayUP) {

  menu.add(0, HIDETRAY, 0, Hide Favorites Tray);

  } else {

  menu.add(0, SHOWTRAY, 0, Show Favorites Tray);

  }

  return super.onPrepareOptionsMenu(menu);

  }
  Next, in onOptionsItemSelected(), I am writing the two cases based on
  the menu item selection. Case 1 when the tray is not visible, so I
  make it visible. Case 2 when it is visible, so I hide it by doing the
  following:

  @Override
  public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {

       switch (item.getItemId()) {

           case HIDETRAY:

               Log.v(TAG, Hiding Favs Tray);
               findViewById(R.id.stub1).setVisibility(View.GONE);
               trayUP = false;

           case SHOWTRAY:

               Log.v(TAG, Showing Favs Tray);
               findViewById(R.id.stub1).setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
               trayUP = true;

           }

       return true;
  }

  I know I am making a silly mistake somewhere. And my mind is too
  saturated to think straight at the moment. Need help :(

  Thanks,

  Ab
