android-search

I have a ListView created inside a fragment, and it has a search filter, the problem is XML layout showing fine in android studio but when running in the emulator or phone it's showing differently (not properly as I aligned) and also when I click the SearchView it goes under the tab navigation. Can anyone tell how to fix this? This is the fragment: import android.content.Context; import android.os.Bundle; import android.util.Log; import android.view.LayoutInflater; import android.view.View; import android.view.ViewGroup; import android.widget.ArrayAdapter; import android.widget.ImageView;

I've implemented a Search Interface (the Search Widget) by following the official tutorial for Search Interface closely. It all looks good but I can't submit the search query. When I click the "Send" button on the keyboard nothing happens. Here is what I did: AndroidManifest.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="14" android:targetSdkVersion="18" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />

I am trying to implement the search widget in the current android apps, but just can't get it done and I've not been able to implement it. Below is my code MainActivity @Override public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present. getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu); SearchManager searchManager = (SearchManager) getSystemService(Context.SEARCH_SERVICE); SearchView searchView = (SearchView) menu.findItem(R.id.search_bar).getActionView(); searchView.setSearchableInfo(searchManager.getSearchableInfo

I'm pretty new to Android and I need a search widget to get suggestions from my own dictionary. I realized some tutorials use android.app.default_searchable meta-data and others the android.app.searchable . I can't find the difference explained though. The difference is that android.app.default_searchable is used to declare which searchable activity to use for searches, the activity has enabled the search dialog. While the user is in this activity and when the user executes the search, the system starts SearchableActivity and delivers it the ACTION_SEARCH intent. By instance if you want to

I am trying to use SearchViewCompat with ActionBarSherlock in an API 8 app. public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { MenuItem item = menu.add("Search") .setIcon(isLight ? R.drawable.ic_search_inverse : R.drawable.ic_search) .setActionView(R.layout.collapsible_edittext); item.setShowAsAction( MenuItem.SHOW_AS_ACTION_ALWAYS | MenuItem.SHOW_AS_ACTION_COLLAPSE_ACTION_VIEW); // To use SearchViewCompat, I need to add it to the Menu item as well: View searchView = SearchViewCompat.newSearchView(this); // ... SearchViewCompat.setOnQueryTextListener(...); // ... item.setActionView(searchView);

I'm using a single activity to display SearchView as well as to display search results. The search results is just a subset of items so the search acts as a filter. Everything seems to work fine except that I can't figure out how to restore all items in the view when a back button of SearchView is clicked on. Or maybe there is another way to detect when a user navigates from search results to the previous view (which, in my case, is the same view). Thanks Darwind So looking at the title of your question, you're not sure how to detect when the SearchView is being closed and hence you're not

I have a SearchView widget in my app, and I want to ask some questions about making it custom. First of all, you can start search only by clicking on search icon, is there any way to make whole SearchView clickable? Also, is there a way to make SearchView appear something like this when it is clicked? It is now in this state: Here is my code: citySearch = (SearchView) findViewById(R.id.city_search_bar); citySearch.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.search_background); citySearch.setOnSearchClickListener(new OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View arg0) { citySearch
