So I have realised where I was going wrong, but have not been able to
achieve my goal.
I am trying to create a dialog box popup containing a table. The table
contains player scores, which are read from a file beforehand.
I have a layout file containing a TextView for a title, and the top
row of the table with 3 views in it ("Name | Score") - the | is a very
thin View as a border between the two columns.
The way I am going about this is:
1. Inflate the scorestable.xml layout to a view (highScoresView).
2. Get the TableLayout view from here (scoreTable)
3. Create TableRow views containing the data for player names and
their scores
4. Add each TableRow to the scoreTable View.
5. Create a dialog using highScoresView as its view.
However when I run this, I just get the same result if I had only
executed steps 1 and 5 from the above list..
I think I am doing something fundamentally wrong...
I can provide code if needed.
Any suggestions?
