So I’m trying to use the built-in drawable timepicker_up_btn for api level 7. It is in the actual res folder in the sdk, and I can use other resources from that folder. But I get the error message «Resource is not public».
It seems like Google is trying to limit the use of this resource. I would think they don’t care if I use it in an Android application and it makes the overall look of my application similar to stock Android.
Anyway, is this fixable? Can I somehow use a non-public resource without copying it to my project? And what is the deal with copying stock resources to own projects? Illegal? Frowned upon? Or go ahead we don’t care?
asked Nov 5, 2011 at 8:05
The best thing to do is to copy the files to our application. I was told by some Google employees that you should not reference the resources, rather copy them to your application.
One of the reasons for this is that if you reference a whole bunch of icons for your application, you are not guaranteed that every one of these is updated at the same time when new versions of the SDK is released. You might end up with some up-to-date fancy icons and some old ones

Technically you can copy the resource from SDK folder to your own resource folder and then use it as your own. Though I am not sure whether it’s a violation of the copyright.

Пока пытаюсь применить ExpandedMenu тема показывает эту ошибку
error: Error: Resource is not public. (at 'theme' with value '@android:style/Theme.ExpandedMenu').
1 ответы
Вы не можете использовать все темы (или любые другие ресурсы), которые не определены системой как общедоступные. Один из способов проверить, является ли он общедоступным или нет, — попытаться автозаполнить его имя в редакторе eclipse. Если он не отображается, он является частным.
Одним из обходных путей является копирование всех его атрибутов в ваше собственное определение и использование его вместо частного системного. Иногда это невозможно, так как слишком много зависимостей от других частных определений.

I’ve been trying to include standard android icons in a menu XML file, as described in Android Icon design guidelines.

Android :: Standard Android Menu Icons For Example Refresh
Apr 21, 2010
The android sdk offers the standard menu icons via android.R.drawable.X, however some standard icons, such as ic_menu_refresh (the refresh icon), are missing from android.R.Is there any way to get the original icons, maybe by extracting them from the applications? I already checked the Android source, but it’s a bit too huge to look everywhere for the images.I know the androiddrawableexplorer website, but I would like to get the correct hdpi, mdpi and ldpi version, preferable the original ones.Do you have any idea?

Android :: Color Gray Resource Icons (especially Microphone)?
Nov 18, 2010
i’m currently developing an application for android. Therefore i want to create a microphone widget, like the one in googles Searchdialog. This icon is filled with white color, like a bargraph, depending on the recorded volume level. I already found the icon (ic_btn_speak_now.png) in the drawable ressources, delivered with the SDK. Unfortunately the icon isn’t an simple shape with a transparent area for the microphone shape. Instead it consists of some different gray values. My question now is: How do the google developers (and others, where i’ve seen it) fill only the microphone shape of the icon with color?

No Standard Menu Button In 3.0+ / How To Get Access To It
Oct 12, 2012
I made my app compatible with both pre and post 3.0. Before 3.0 most phones had menu buttons which led to settings or other menu options. Since 3.0+ the dev guide has depreciated the menu button so phones don’t need it. ICS and JB don’t use them.
So how do I let users access it? In Gingerbread a user can press the menu button and then select the «Settings» link. Everyone knows what I mean but I feel I need to explain it: here’s the dev guide anyway.
So if one of my users is on a 3.0+ device how can I let them get access to the settings page? I don’t want to use the Action Bar like the dev guide suggests. That’s a huge UI change just for one settings page.
I mean it’s just one page and changing my UI to add a settings imageview would change the overall layout of main.xml which at the moment is just how i want it.

HTC Incredible :: Launcher Pro — Using A Standard Clock Some Icons And Other Options
Aug 4, 2010
I must say LP is kinda cool, gives you a different feel of the phone. Right now i’m only using one screen, and 1 dock (not multiple dock screens), but i guess i’m just trying to find out if this is actually any different than the normal senseUI. I see there are limited icons, and we can either use the LP icons, or the default icons, but maybe there is an expansion pack for LP that i’m not understanding? Also, what are you guys using as a clock. With LP, i can only add the analog clock, or other wigdet clocks i’ve downloaded, but can’t load 10 clocks that came with the phone. I’m assuming those are senseUI clocks, and will not work with LP. Should i download clock widgets that will work with LP? Also, since i’m only using 1 screen, and 1 dock, and i really not utilizing LP to the max here ? I should be using the dock more, and using it for more applications to quickly pull up right? Does anyone have any advice on how to customize it a little bit to make the experience more enjoyable, or make it worth the while ?Also, battery life? Any difference? Is it the same? I have ATK that i run every once in a while to kill some buggy apps/games, I noticed that LP is running and taking up a good amount of resources, has anyone reported a really bad battery due to LP being installed?

Jul 16, 2010
I am new to android, I try to create layout so that I have background image, and have a ImageView with animation start from bottom right of screen and along with a TextView stay on top of this ImageView. (Hope my describe make sense).
My problem is when I try use «android:layout_above=»@id/flyobject»», the eclipse alway say: error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at ‘layout_above’ with value ‘@id/flyobject’). But as for sure I have defined flyobject, and I can find it’s in my R class.
Here is my XML file:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android=»http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android»android:layout_width=»fill_parent» android:layout_height=»fill_parent»>
<ImageView android:id=»@+id/background»android:src = «@drawable/background»android:layout_width=»fill_parent»android:layout_height=»fill_parent» android:scaleType=»centerCrop»/>
<TextViewandroid:id=»@+id/flytext»android:layout_width=»wrap_content»android:layout_height=»wrap_content»android:layout_above=»@id/flyobject»/>

Android :: Standard Android Icons & Images
Nov 6, 2009
I notice that most apps that come with the OS use a standard look and feel, with common icons and images for common tasks. For example, when data is being loaded, you see the «Loading» text with the green revolving arrow to indicate that something is happening, or when you are asked if you want to take a photo, you see the gray camera icon image. I have also seen private apps downloaded from the market use these same icons. So.
1) Are these images available for our use? I’m sure my apps would look more pro if they used them.
2) Is it recommended that android developers follow the standard look and feel in their apps?

Android :: Resize Options Menu — Get Icons Centered?

I created a basic options menu, here an example of creating an element of me menu: menu.add(0, MENU_BACKWARD, 0, «»).setIcon(R.drawable.btn_backward);
As you can see I don’t want to show any text in this menu, just an icon ! But when the menu is showed, there is a «ugly» blank under the icon (the text is supposed to be there) and I want to avoid this. A least if it’s possible to center the icon the options menus, it will be great.

HTC Desire :: Error Accessing Remote Resource
Jul 2, 2010
New problem *sigh* getting to be quite annoyed with HTC/Android. Gone from excitement to frustration.I have Google apps for my domain with a custom email matt@mydomain.com (example)I use Exchange ActiveSync to access my emails, calendar and contacts on my phone.I have been having the same frustrations of others when things stop syncing but this is usually fixed by either putitng in a wrong password and then the right one or by removing the Exchange ActiveSync account and then readding it. Unfortunately this how now ceased to work. Yesterday afternoon my phone stopped syncing email and showed the little circle with arrows icon with an exclamation next to it. I left it overnight thinking it might have been a Google glitch or something rather than the phone but its still not working now getting close to 24 hours later.I have tried putting a wrong password and the the correct one and it still fails to sync (calendar works etc)I have tried several times removing the account and the readding it again but it still fails to do mail. Instead a little message shows at the bottom of the screen saying «Error accessing a remote resource». I google searching this on the web and also on this forum and found no results of any value or help
