The parent doing the measuring is expected to create a MeasureSpec based on its own measurement and layout strategy and the child’s LayoutParams. If you want to measure the way that WRAP_CONTENT usually works in most layouts, call … Read more

I think in the .setContent method of each tab you pass in the view you wish to use: TabHost.TabSpec spec1 = tabs.newTabSpec(“tag1”); spec1.setContent(R.id.AnalogClock01); spec1.setIndicator(“Analog Clock”); Here’s an example I found awhile back: <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”utf-8″?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android=”http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android” android:orientation=”vertical” android:layout_width=”fill_parent” android:layout_height=”fill_parent” > <TabHost android:id=”@+id/TabHost01″ android:layout_width=”wrap_content” android:layout_height=”wrap_content”> <TabWidget android:id=”@android:id/tabs” android:layout_width=”wrap_content” android:layout_height=”wrap_content” /> <FrameLayout android:id=”@android:id/tabcontent” android:layout_width=”wrap_content” android:layout_height=”wrap_content” android:paddingTop=”65px”> … Read more

However, that does not mean you cannot have focusable/clickable items in a row, there are some workarounds like this one. Also, you can take a look at the … Read more
Try this: ImageButton btn = (ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.button1); btn.setImageResource(R.drawable.newimage); where newimage is the image name in drawable folder. EDITED try this: ImageButton btn = (ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.button1); btn.setImageBitmap(bm); where bm is bitmap extracted from server. EDITED AGAIN I see you receive a Drawable; well, do this: normalImage = Drawable.createFromStream(code); Bitmap bm = ((BitmapDrawable)normalImage).getBitmap(); ImageButton btn = (ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.button1); btn.setImageBitmap(bm);
