How To Add Textview And Edittext Using Default Alertdialog Programmatically

I've been trying to add two elements in a default AlertDialog but I can't seem to make it work. Here's my code: // START Dialog AlertDialog.Builder alertDialogBuilder = new Ale

Solution 1:

        AlertDialog.BuilderalertDialogBuilder=newAlertDialog.Builder(this);

        LinearLayoutlayout=newLinearLayout(this);
        LinearLayout.LayoutParamsparms=newLinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
        layout.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
        layout.setLayoutParams(parms);

        layout.setGravity(Gravity.CLIP_VERTICAL);
        layout.setPadding(2, 2, 2, 2);

        TextViewtv=newTextView(this);
        tv.setText("Text View title");
        tv.setPadding(40, 40, 40, 40);
        tv.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
        tv.setTextSize(20);

        EditTextet=newEditText(this);
        etStr = et.getText().toString();
        TextViewtv1=newTextView(this);
        tv1.setText("Input Student ID");

        LinearLayout.LayoutParamstv1Params=newLinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
        tv1Params.bottomMargin = 5;
        layout.addView(tv1,tv1Params);
        layout.addView(et, newLinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

        alertDialogBuilder.setView(layout);
        alertDialogBuilder.setTitle(title);
        // alertDialogBuilder.setMessage("Input Student ID");
        alertDialogBuilder.setCustomTitle(tv);

        if (isError)
            alertDialogBuilder.setIcon(R.drawable.icon_warning);
        // alertDialogBuilder.setMessage(message);
        alertDialogBuilder.setCancelable(false);

        // Setting Negative "Cancel" Button
        alertDialogBuilder.setNegativeButton("Cancel", newDialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            publicvoidonClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {
                dialog.cancel();
            }
        });

        // Setting Positive "OK" Button
        alertDialogBuilder.setPositiveButton("OK", newDialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            publicvoidonClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                if (isError)
                    finish();
                else {
                      Intentintent=newIntent(ChangeDeviceActivity.this,
                      MyPageActivity.class); startActivity(intent);
                }
            }
        });

        AlertDialogalertDialog= alertDialogBuilder.create();

        try {
            alertDialog.show();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // WindowManager$BadTokenException will be caught and the app would// not display the 'Force Close' message
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

Solution 2:

Make one .xml file which include whatever view you want like below.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><LinearLayoutxmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="match_parent"android:orientation="vertical"><TextViewandroid:id="@+id/textView1"android:layout_width="312dp"android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:text="Enter your email address :"android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"/><EditTextandroid:id="@+id/dialog1Edittext"android:layout_width="fill_parent"android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:ems="10"android:layout_marginTop="10dp"android:inputType="textEmailAddress"><requestFocus/></EditText>

After that in your .java file implements following code.

Viewview= View.inflate(this, R.layout.yourxmlname, null);
AlertDialog.Builderalert=newAlertDialog.Builder(this);
// Now set the dialog's content
alert.setContentView(view);

Hope it helps you.

Solution 3:

When calling setView() the original TextView holding the message gets hidden. You need to

• create a small layout xml and put the EditText and a TextView to it
• inflate the layout
• get references of the views with findViewById()
• do something with the views
