Layout position of SlideShowView

[dantp-ai]

I have a RelativeLayout as parent and want to position SlideShowView in the center of the parent. However this does not seem to work?

[spiritinlife]

<gr.spiritinlife.EasySlideShow.SlideShowView
        android:id="@+id/slideShow"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="170dp"
        android:clickable="true"
       android:layout_centerInParent="true"/>

You have something like the above and it does not get centered ?
If not please provide some code.

[dantp-ai]

Yes, I define SlideShowView layout like that. I put it inside a RelativeLayout:

<RelativeLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@android:color/black">
</RelativeLayout>

In Android Studio Design section, it seems to look correct(Fig. 1), however on my phone it looks different(Fig. 2)

(Fig. 1)

I cannot reproduce it.
I use this code and it seems fine

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
              android:orientation="vertical"
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent">


    <gr.spiritinlife.EasySlideShow.SlideShowView
            android:id="@+id/slideShow"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="170dp"
            android:clickable="true"
            android:layout_centerInParent="true"/>


</RelativeLayout>

Sorry i cannot be of more help/

Does it have something to do with your implementation of newImageViewInstance() ?

[spiritinlife]

I don't see something wrong with it . But the whole thing is not correct. I suggest you not use this for any of your apps. At the moment i am working on a new one that will be more stable. Maybe by the end of the day i will have something.

[dantp-ai]

That would be awesome. \m/

@plopd Check the new release that i pushed. It is still a pre release but i believe it is in the right direction.

• Check the updated readme which is built upon your issue.

Tell if everything works this time
Cheers

Closing it

I managed to get the new version running. However, if I use your example, and I would expect that the 'SlideShowView' layout is centered on the screen, it is still positioned on top.

Here is a screenshot. Could you send me the specs of your testing device to try to emulate it ?
The following screenshot is from a nexus 4 running android 5+

Android 4.2.2 Samsung Galaxy S2

[spiritinlife]

I have tested in genmotion emulator
With Samsung Galaxy S2 4.1.1 and Samsung Galaxy S3 4.2.2 and it looks correct.

Can you share some code?
At the moment , i do not see how this is not working for you.
Can you run your project on an emulator also to confirm that is not device specific ?

[dantp-ai]

Yes, I will look into it.
