HorizontalListView is an Android ListView widget which scrolls in a horizontal manner (in contrast with the SDK-provided ListView which scrolls vertically).
To use in an XML layout:
0. Include The Library into your project
0. Make sure you are running ADT version 17 or greater
0. Add this XML namespace to your layout xmlns:widget="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
0. Create the HorizontalListView as com.meetme.android.horizontallistview.HorizontalListView
Example:
<com.meetme.android.horizontallistview.HorizontalListView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:widget="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="@+id/HorizontalListView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:divider="#878787"
widget:dividerWidth="2dp" />
Notice you set the dividerWidth via the XML namespace you just defined as it is a custom attribute. All other attributes can only be set normally via the android namespace.
- Currently this widget only supports uniform width items. When the item width is not uniform it leads to the UI rendering in inconsistent corrupted states.
- Does not support trackball/d-pad navigation
- Does not support scroll bars
- Does not support header or footer views
- Does not support disabled items
