I am trying to write a function that will work out if the window that currently has focus is entirely shown in the client rect of my CScrollView but I am struggling to work out what I am doing wrong. This is what I have thus far:
CWnd * pWnd = pView->GetFocus();
if(pWnd)
{
CRect winRect;
pWnd->GetWindowRect(&winRect);
pView->ScreenToClient(&winRect); //pView is a pointer the CScrollView
CRect viewRect;
pView->GetClientRect(&viewRect);
CPoint currentScrollPoint = pView->GetScrollPosition();
viewRect.OffsetRect(currentScrollPoint);
if(!(viewRect.PtInRect(winRect.BottomRight()) && viewRect.PtInRect(winRect.TopLeft())))
{
//Not shown fully
}
}
Can anyone see what I am doing wrong here or suggest a better way of doing this?
The comments to the question above cleared up the actual intent of the question:
...when I tab to one that is not shown by the current client rect I want to scroll
to display that `CEdit`...
I found two articles searching MSDN for CFormView scroll tab key:
the first one uses OnCtlColor() to check if a sub-window has the focus and is not in view; it uses ScrollToPosition()
the second one mentions that ScrollToPosition() does not work in Windows CE (both the articles are quite old!), checks for WM_KEYUP of the tab key in PreTranslateMessage() and uses it's own ScrollToPos() function to scroll the control into view (this article was meant for Windows CE and you will need to replace wce_GetNextWindow by GetNextWindow

NOTE: There are two similar SO questions (1) (2), but neither of them provides an answer.
TL;DR: How can one dismiss the keyboard in a MonoTouch.Dialog by letting the user touch any empty space in the view?
I'm writing an app using MonoTouch.Dialog and a UITabBarController. One of my tabs is "Settings"...
When the user starts typing, the keyboard obstructs the tabbar...
Using MonoTouch.Dialog, the only way to dismiss the keyboard is to go to the last field and press the "return" key. Considering the fact that the user cannot press any tab until the keyboard is gone, I would like a better way to do it. Namely, to dismiss if the user taps anywhere else on the screen.
Without MonoTouch.Dialog, it's a snap: simply override TouchesBegan and call EndEditing. But this doesn't work with MT.D. I've tried subclassing DialogViewController and overriding TouchesBegan there, but it doesn't work. I'm currently at a loss.
Or, I wonder, would I be better off ditching the tabbar so I can use a UINavigationController with a "Back" button on top, which won't be hidden by the keyboard?
I suggest you use a tap gesture recognizer that will not cause interference with the TableView event handlers:
var tap = new UITapGestureRecognizer ();
tap.AddTarget (() => dvc.View.EndEditing (true));
dvc.View.AddGestureRecognizer (tap);
tap.CancelsTouchesInView = false;
You missed my question about it also: Can the keyboard be dismissed by touching outside of the cell in MonoTouch.Dialog?
:-)
This is my #1 feature request for MonoTouch.Dialog.
To answer your question: No. It is not possible. I have searched and asked around and have not found any answers.
I assume because it is just a sectioned (grouped) table and if it wasn't sectioned, there wouldn't be any spot to click. However, that is just my speculation.
I wish that miguel or someone that works on monotouch would answer this and say if it is even possible. Possibly a future enhancement?
I figured out a workaround that satisfies me well enough, so I'm answering my own question.
// I already had this code to set up the dialog view controller.
var bc = new BindingContext (this, settings, "Settings");
var dvc = new DialogViewController (bc.Root, false);
// **** ADD THIS ****
dvc.TableView.DraggingStarted += (sender, e) => {
dvc.View.EndEditing (true);
};
This will dismiss the keyboard whenever the user drags the view a little bit. There's no touch event I could find associated with the tableview, so this is the next best thing. I'd welcome any other ideas. Cheers!
One workaround to use the dragging gesture instead of the tap as proposed (that do not interfere with the table view gestures) is to override MonoTouch.Dialog.DialogViewController.SizingSource (or MonoTouch.Dialog.DialogViewController.Source if you don't want uneven rows) and give it to the DialogViewController. I don't know if it is very clean or safe.
public class CustomTableViewSource : MonoTouch.Dialog.DialogViewController.SizingSource
{
public CustomTableViewSource(MonoTouch.Dialog.DialogViewController dvc) : base(dvc)
{
}
public override void DraggingStarted(UIScrollView scrollView)
{
base.DraggingStarted(scrollView);
if (scrollView != null)
{
scrollView.EndEditing(true);
}
}
}
I need to display an additional info for a marker when it's clicked. I expected to find a way how to display a popup window (like a tooltip) with a short description on marker click, but failed.
I use MapMarker class for my markers because I need custom icons.
The MapMarker and MapStandardMarker classes do not have the functionality I need.
As I understand, I need something like Android MapView Balloons
I've solved the problem.
I use the popup dialog similar to the one implemented in "Meet Me For Dinner" sample application. All necessary info can be found here.
I met the problem with detecting a click on marker. For this I used MapDisplay.getObjectAt () method. But it looks like that method doesn't take into account the marker's anchor point. So, I had to use the following work-around for this:
final MapObject mapObj = mapDisp.getObjectAt ( new Point (
clickX + m_markerIconSize.getWidth (),
clickY + m_markerIconSize.getHeight () )
);
if ( (mapObj != null) && (mapObj instanceof MapMarker) ) {
I worked on Google MID-MAPS, There is no any method to show balloon in MapMarker but you can try with your own method create your own balloon. When user clicks particular position of map you can show your balloon. I never tried this but lets try and let me know also.
Thanks
My current understanding is that I have to assign the coordinates in the code itself instead of using the interface-builder. Is there a better way to do this?
Currently I am trying to handle a login view. It works well in portrait mode but in landscape mode few of the contents are hidden. Please suggest how to handle this.
Thanks
GuruPrasad R Gujjar.
You can handle this one of two ways. The first is what you suggested and change all of their frames, and second is to just have a separate view that is in landscape mode and switch it out on rotation.
For both cases you need to implement these two methods
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
return YES;
}
-(void) willAnimateRotationToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation duration:(NSTimeInterval)duration{
if (toInterfaceOrientation==UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait || toInterfaceOrientation== UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown) {
//put the portrait orientation here
self.usernameField.frame=CGRectMake(xPortraitLocation, yPortraitLocation, xWidth, yWidth);
...
}
else{
//do the same thing with everything but for landscape mode
}
With a seperate view you just switch them out by saying self.view=self.lanscapeView or self.portraitView.
If I am going to use the first method I sometimes like to create a fake view in the interface builder so that I can put all my items in the correct locations and look under the location tab which eliminates the guess and check of assigning the numbers.
Hope this helps.
I need to show the only component on the form - HTMLComponent. Reaching the bottom of the form/component while vertical scrolling scroll bar jumps back to the top of the form. I need to prevent this.
I've tried to turn on/off scrolling on the form and HTMLComponent but anyway if there's a scroll bar - it will return to the top from the bottom. Also I've tried border and box layouts and additional container for HTMLComponent - no use.
Any ideas how to prevent such scrolling issue?
Try this (it works for me - LWUIT 1.5):
htmlComponent.getComponentForm().setCyclicFocus(false);
If you get a NullPointerException, call it after adding to the HtmlComponent to a form.
If you want to get rid of the bottom/top jump scroll, you can use
form.setCyclicFocus(false)
You should stick with border layout and place the HTML component in the center for this particular use case. You can disable form scrolling since the HTML component is indeed scrollable by default:
form.setScrollable(false);
HTMLComponent is itself scrollable
to prevent scrolling
setScrollable(false);
for horizontal scroll off
setScrollableX(false);
hope this will solve your issue
...or, you can paste this code on your Form class
public void keyPressed(int keyCode) {
int tecla = Display.getInstance().getGameAction(keyCode);
if(tecla == 8){
//if hit ENTER or principal key in mobile keyboard
}else if(tecla == 6){//down key
if(this.list_component_name.getSelectedIndex() < this.list_component_name.size() - 1)
this.list_component_name.setSelectedIndex(this.lista_bodegas.getSelectedIndex() + 1);
}else if(tecla == 1){//up key
if(this.list_component_name.getSelectedIndex() > 0)
this.list_component_name.setSelectedIndex(this.list_component_name.getSelectedIndex() - 1);
}
}
That's also work for me
form.serScrollable(false) or form.setCyclicFocus(false) didn't work for me.
I have a form and just a single HTMLComponent in it.
The problem is in HTMLComponent itself and disabling focus of the form won't affect it.
You can try with making the whole component focusable which might help in scrolling in a proper way. Along with this you should add your html component in Boderlayout.center of form and make form scrollable true and cyclic focus false.
In LWUITImplementation we have function getDragPathTime(). This javaDoc about this function:
/**
* Indicates what drag points are valid for the drag speed calculation.
* Points that are older then the current time - the path time are ignored
*
* #return the relevance time per point
*/
I also was problem especially in devices with OS S-60 Nokia. Lists was jumped from buttom to top. i solved this problem by change the return value. I change the value to 600( from 200). this occurs to fewer sampling and prevent the "jump".
Is it possible to customise the title bar in Java ME?
You might like to check out J2ME Polish, which provides a massive amount of UI customisation for MIDlets, including the title bar: link text
The API doesn't provide functionality for customising the default title bar, but we can attempt to write our own bar. This is in itself a minor breach of UI conventions. Some phones allow us to use setTitle(null) to remove the title. The phones in the Java mobile toolkit behave this way, but the Series 40 and 60 emulators don't seem to support this and instead generates a default title. On the other hand, the Sony Ericssons and Motorolas I've tested seem to support this.
However, we can detect whether the ability to remove the titlebar is present. We do not use the sizeChanged callback as the calling of this function may be delayed when the canvas is not visible. Instead we call getHeight both before and after removing the bar. According to the spec, getHeight should always return the correct and up to date value, even when the canvas is not being displayed. Here is code for implementing the detection:
public static boolean HIDE_TITLE_ENABLED;//Whether the implementation allows us to hide the title bar
static{
//See if we can remove the title by ensuring it is non-nil, then attempting
//to remove it. If we can't, then reset it.
Canvas c=new Canvas(){
protected void paint(Graphics g){
}
};
c.setTitle("test");
int preHeight=c.getHeight();
c.setTitle(null);
int afterHeight=c.getHeight();
HIDE_TITLE_ENABLED=preHeight!=afterHeight;
}
It is also possible to hide the title bar using full screen mode, but this hides other elements as well. This method is popular in games.
