How to dynamically populate Android spinner with text + image


This is what i am trying to achieve                 I am able to achieve this much:

screenshot             enter image description here


I was able to add text and image to a Spinner, but the images are not showing up in the drop-down menu next to the text. Its only shows up for the selected item of the spinner.

Here is my code:

spinner_layout.xml
The layout containing the main Spinner.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <Spinner android:id="@+id/mySpinner"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

</LinearLayout>


spinner_value_layout.xml
The layout for the elements in the Spinner. This will be inflated using an Adapter.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" 
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <TableRow
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" >

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/spinnerTextView"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent" />

        <ImageView 
            android:id="@+id/spinnerImages"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:contentDescription="@string/app_name"/>"

    </TableRow>

</TableLayout>


SpinnerActivity.java

package com.example.spinner;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.Spinner;
import android.widget.TextView;

import com.example.tempspinner.R;

public class SpinnerActivity extends Activity {

    String[] textArray = { "clouds", "mark", "techcrunch", "times" };
    Integer[] imageArray = { R.drawable.clouds, R.drawable.mark,
            R.drawable.techcrunch, R.drawable.times };

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.spinner_layout);

        TextView text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.spinnerTextView);
        ImageView imageView =(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.spinnerImages);
        Spinner spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.mySpinner);

        SpinnerAdapter adapter = new SpinnerAdapter(this, R.layout.spinner_value_layout, textArray, imageArray);
        spinner.setAdapter(adapter);

    }

}


SpinnerAdapter.java

package com.example.spinner;

import android.content.Context;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.TextView;

import com.example.tempspinner.R;

public class SpinnerAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> {

    private Context ctx;
    private String[] contentArray;
    private Integer[] imageArray;

    public SpinnerAdapter(Context context, int resource, String[] objects,
            Integer[] imageArray) {
        super(context,  R.layout.spinner_value_layout, R.id.spinnerTextView, objects);
        this.ctx = context;
        this.contentArray = objects;
        this.imageArray = imageArray;
    }


    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        if (convertView == null) {
            LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) ctx.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
            convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.spinner_value_layout, null);

        }

        TextView textView = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.spinnerTextView);
        textView.setText(contentArray[position]);

        ImageView imageView = (ImageView)convertView.findViewById(R.id.spinnerImages);
        imageView.setImageResource(imageArray[position]);

        return convertView;

    }

}

Solution 1:

Try this..

public class SpinnerAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> {

    private Context ctx;
    private String[] contentArray;
    private Integer[] imageArray;

    public SpinnerAdapter(Context context, int resource, String[] objects,
            Integer[] imageArray) {
        super(context,  R.layout.spinner_value_layout, R.id.spinnerTextView, objects);
        this.ctx = context;
        this.contentArray = objects;
        this.imageArray = imageArray;
    }

    @Override
    public View getDropDownView(int position, View convertView,ViewGroup parent) {
        return getCustomView(position, convertView, parent);
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
       return getCustomView(position, convertView, parent);
    }

    public View getCustomView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)ctx.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        View row = inflater.inflate(R.layout.spinner_value_layout, parent, false);

        TextView textView = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.spinnerTextView);
        textView.setText(contentArray[position]);

        ImageView imageView = (ImageView)row.findViewById(R.id.spinnerImages);
        imageView.setImageResource(imageArray[position]);

        return row;    
    }    
}

Solution 2:

Spinner row.xml You can remove my unnecessary drawable styles and images

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:padding="10dip">

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/spinner_img"
        android:layout_width="30dp"
        android:layout_height="30dp"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/spinner_name"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="30dp"
        android:layout_marginLeft="5dip"
        android:layout_marginTop="2dip"
        android:padding="3dip"
        android:textColor="@android:color/holo_red_dark" />
</LinearLayout>

Activity layout act_add_new_prog.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <Spinner
        android:id="@+id/spin_frag_four_kategori"
        android:layout_width="260dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="50dp"
        android:background="@drawable/aw_shadow"
        android:entries="@array/workouts"
        android:gravity="center|top|start"
        android:paddingLeft="15dp"
        android:text="Selam" />
</LinearLayout>

            allList.add(item);
        }*/

        return allList;

}

ItemModel for every row

public class ListItemAddProg {
    String name;
    int logo;
    public void setData(String name, int logo) {
        this.name = name;
        this.logo = logo;
    }
    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }
    public int getLogo() {
        return logo;
    }
    public void setLogo(int logo) {
        this.logo = logo;
    }
}
