Ok, so it seems like I'm taking two steps forwards and 1 step back but
hopefully I'm just about there.
So I decided to create a custom RelativeLayout with an ImageView that
I add a custom checkbox to. All seems to work well except now when I
try to access the ImageView using the following code:
ImageView lightbulbImageView = (ImageView)
findViewById(R.id.lightBulbAnimation);
it returns null. I inflate the RelativeLayout with the following code
before accessing the ImageView:
LayoutInflater layout = getLayoutInflater();
RelativeLayout tagInfoLayout =
(RelativeLayout)layout.inflate(R.layout.taginfo_layout, null);
Inside the taginfo_layout.xml file:
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="@id/tagCheckbox"
android:id="@+id/lightBulbAnimation"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical">
</ImageView>
</RelativeLayout>
Am I on the right track in terms of having to inflate the layout
first? If so, is there a reason why it's returning null when I try to
access the ImageView and if so how can I fix it?
Thanks.
