[android-developers] Re: Dialog and Other View

Jithin,

In Android, if the dialog is shown, the area beneath it cant get any
user interaction.
And this is quite a useful property that when you have to show a
progress in any process
and you want to restrict user not to do any UI interaction,

then instead of changing the visibility of the controls or making them
disable,
just show an overlay or dialog.

If you want to show the list in the dialog, you can refer the dialog
activity in the API demos which describes all types of dialogs.

or refer following:

final Runnable showSitesListingDialog = new Runnable() {
public void run() {

LayoutInflater inflator = BaseScreen.this.getLayoutInflater();
View view = inflator.inflate(R.layout.sites_list, null);

ListView sitesListView = (ListView) view
.findViewById(R.id.ListView01);
sitesListView.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(BaseScreen.this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_single_choice,
sitesNameArray));
sitesListView.setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE);
sitesListView.setItemChecked(
applicationData.getCurrrentSiteIndex(), true);

AlertDialog.Builder sitesDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(
BaseScreen.this);
sitesDialog.setTitle(R.string.sites_list_dialog_title);
sitesDialog.setView(view);
sitesDialog.setPositiveButton(BaseScreen.this.getResources()
.getString(R.string.ok),
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog,
int whichButton) {
// add
implementation
}
}
});
sitesDialog.show();
}
};
