Image overlapping in widget
- by Hunt
I am trying to create a widget in android in which when I click over image the image gets changed with a new one -- kind of toggle image.
But when I click over it, the image overwrites over the old one rather then replacing the new one. I don't know whether this is the way the widget works or am I doing something wrong.
My images are semi-transparent so in case one overrides another one can see the image which is being overlapped.
This is the code that I have written in OnReceive by overriding it:
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent){
if (intent.getAction().equals(iAlertConstant.ACTION_WIDGET_UPDATE_FROM_WIDGET)) {
RemoteViews remoteViews = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(),R.layout.mywidget);
remoteViews.setImageViewResource(R.id.btnOnOff,R.drawable.offbtn);
ComponentName thisWidget = new ComponentName(context, EmergencyWidget.class);
AppWidgetManager.getInstance(context).updateAppWidget(thisWidget, remoteViews);
}
else
super.onReceive(context, intent);
}
Layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:background="@drawable/widget_background"
android:paddingLeft="10.0dip"
android:paddingTop="8.0dip"
android:paddingRight="10.0dip"
android:paddingBottom="8.0dip"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="72dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="10.0dip"
android:layout_marginTop="10.0dip"
android:layout_marginRight="10.0dip"
android:id="@+id/emergencyWidget"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<ImageView
android:background="@drawable/offbtn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="7dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="4dp"
android:layout_marginRight="4dp"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:id="@+id/btnOnOff"
/>
</LinearLayout>
