Question

I’m creating an edit text :

EditText et=new EditText(this);
et.setLayoutParams(new Gallery.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

and a View :

View myView = new View(this);

I want to have (only) the EditText in this view.
How can I do it ?

Answer 1

The common way of putting Views (or “UI-Elements”) on an Android Activity is to create them (in code or in XML) and put them in a Layout which is then displayed.

Since you only want one View, you can use a FrameLayout:

FrameLayout is designed to block out an area on the screen to display
a single item.

Sample code and further information can be found in the linked docs.
