Question

I’m wondering if there’s a setText() method in spinners? What I want to do is display the selected item in a spinner (it’s saved via sharedpreferences.) so the next time, the user displays the saved data, it should display in the spinner. How can I do that? I already know how to do it an edittext like this : age.setText(age);
But wondering how to show it in spinners.

Answer 1

There is no such method in Spinner class.

You need to implement a SpinnerAdapter which will be responsible for creating the items of the Spinnerand attach it via the setAdapter() method.
