[Wish] More Widget Features

[XverhelstX]

HI Erel,

Is it possible to add some (of the following) functions for the homescreen widgets?

setLayout(String ViewName, int Left, int Top, int Width, int Height);

- Changes the view position on runtime. (need this desperately.)

getWidth(String ViewName);
setWidth(String ViewName, int Width);

- gets (and sets) the width of a view.

getHeight(String ViewName);
setHeight(String ViewName, int Height);

- gets (and sets) the height of a view.

addView(View view, String ViewName, int Left, int Top, int Width, int Height);

- Adds a view on runtime. (need this desperately.)

removeView(String ViewName)

- Removes a view at runtime. (need this desperately.)

I don't know if it's added yet, but perhaps a:

_longclick

for some views?

Thanks,

XverhelstX

I think a long click is not possible on widgets because if I make a long click on a widget the launcher opens a popup menu to configure the widget.

I would also add an easiest way to build widgets. Too much XML edition is needed in order to build one.

Have you read the tutorials?
Usually you will not need to modify any XML file yourself.

It seems, I was mistaken with another tutorial
