Four views are using same xml. I want to show a linear layout for view 1
only.
I put android:visibility="gone"
in xml. And then I am doing the following for view 1
-
LinearLayout layone= (LinearLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.layone);
layone.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
But that doesn't set the visibility to visible.
Isn't it possible to show the view once its declared GONE
in xml ?
I don't want to converse the logic by just doing,
layone.setVisibility(View.GONE);
in each of the three views except view 1.
Ideas or comments?
UPDATE:
My xml -
<TextView
android:id="@+id/layone"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Previous Page"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="16dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:visibility="gone" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:padding="10dp"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:tag="PrevEntries"
android:id="@+id/laytwo"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:background="@layout/roundedtext"
android:visibility="gone" >
<TextView
android:id="@+id/laythree"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="Previous Page"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="18dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:textStyle="bold" />
</LinearLayout>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/layone"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Previous Page"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="16dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:visibility="gone" />
layone is a TextView.
You got your id wrong.
LinearLayout layone= (LinearLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.laytwo);// change id here
layone.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
should do the job.
or change like this to show the TextView:
TextView layone= (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.layone);
layone.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
