Nested Linear layout only shows first view after being set from gone to visible in Android
- by Adam
Hi guys,
I am developing an Android app but I'm still pretty new. I want to have a button, and when you push that button, a few TextViews and Buttons will appear. So I have a main linear layout, and then another linear layout nested inside containing the things I want hidden. I have the nested linear layout set to android:visibility="gone".
The problem I am having is that it only shows the first item inside the hidden linear layout instead of all of them. The way I try to make it appear is
vgAddView = (ViewGroup)findViewById(R.id.add_details);
btnAche.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v){
vgAddView.setVisibility(0);
}
});
My XML file is this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<Button
android:text="@string/but_stomach_ache"
android:id="@+id/but_stomach_ache"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</Button>
<Button
android:text="@string/but_food"
android:id="@+id/but_food"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</Button>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:id="@+id/add_details"
android:visibility="gone">
<TextView
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:text="@string/when_happen">
</TextView>
<Button
android:text="@string/happen_now"
android:id="@+id/happen_now"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</Button>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
