There is common issue that people including me faces. The issue is why does LayoutInflater ignore the layout parameters that I’ve specified?
E.g. why are the layout_width and layout_height values from my resources XML not honored?
The following tutorials shows how to dynamically populate a layout using LayoutInflater.
LayoutInflater
Before we get started see what LayoutInflater.inflate() parameters look like:
LayoutInflater.inflate()
R.layout.main_page
attachToRoot
true
LayoutParams
false
Now for the sample layout and code.
Main layout (main.xml):
main.xml
Added into this container is a separate TextView, visible as small red square if layout parameters are successfully applied from XML (red.xml):
red.xml
Now LayoutInflater is used with several variations of call parameters
The actual results of the parameter variations are documented in the code.
SYNOPSIS: Calling LayoutInflater without specifying root leads to inflate call ignoring the layout parameters from the XML. Calling inflate with root not equal null and attachRoot=truedoes load the layout parameters, but returns the root object again, which prevents further layout changes to the loaded object (unless you can find it using findViewById()). The calling convention you most likely would like to use is therefore this one:
null
attachRoot=true
findViewById()

We've bought a Shopware Extension which is a hybrid App, which we can now offer in the Google Play Store and the IOS App Store. I'am still impressed how fast and how sharp the support team leads us through every process of the App-Store clarification. Very fast and useful response.
