    Question I've created a slideshow using ViewPager, need to make a 3 small changes but stuck

    I wanted to create a simple slideshow. I've gotten reasonably far, but now I'm stuck, I'm sure my issues sound very simple to you guys, hence why I'm here looking for help :-) I have made an effort, source code below.


    Changes I'm stuck on

    1. I want the images of the slideshow to fill the screen
    2. I also don't want the user to have to drag the image across, I just want him to tap the image and it goes to the next one.
    3. When the slideshow ends (reaches last item, a toast message tells user its finished)

    I have tried to do the above, but like I said. I'm abit new at all this

    ImagePager:

        public class ImagePager extends Activity {
     
        	@Override
        	public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        		super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        		setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        		ImagePagerAdapter adapter = new ImagePagerAdapter(this, imageArra );
        		ViewPager myPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.myimagepager);
        		myPager.setAdapter(adapter);
        		myPager.setCurrentItem(0);
        		}
     
     
        	private int imageArra[] = { R.drawable.one, R.drawable.two, R.drawable.three, R.drawable.four, 
        			                    R.drawable.five,R.drawable.six, R.drawable.seven, R.drawable.eight,
        			                    R.drawable.nine,R.drawable.ten,R.drawable.eleven, R.drawable.twelve,
     
        			                    };
     
        public class ImagePagerAdapter extends PagerAdapter {
     
        	Activity activity;
        	int imageArray[];
     
        	public ImagePagerAdapter(Activity act, int[] imgArra) {
        	    imageArray = imgArra;
        	    activity = act;
        	    }
     
        	public int getCount() {
        		return imageArray.length;}
     
        	public Object instantiateItem(View collection, int position) {
        		LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)collection.getContext().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
                View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_pager, null);   
     
                ImageView im=(ImageView) layout.findViewById(R.id.myimage);        		
        		im.setImageResource(imageArray[position]);
     
                ((ViewPager) collection).addView(layout, 0);
                   return layout;   
                   }
     
        	@Override
        	public void destroyItem(View arg0, int arg1, Object arg2) {
        		((ViewPager) arg0).removeView((View) arg2);
        	}
     
        	@Override
        	public boolean isViewFromObject(View arg0, Object arg1) {
        		return arg0 == ((View) arg1);
        	}
     
        	@Override
        	public Parcelable saveState() {
        		return null;
        		}
        	}
        @Override

    Default Re: I've created a slideshow using ViewPager, need to make a 3 small changes but stuck

    One of my first big java program years ago was a slideshow and image file manager. It used a java applet and back then it was possible to find a free web hosting site that allowed java applets. Now they are all gone. So I've posted my images on the Picasa Web Album site.
    Currently I working on learning Android and am looking for another project on Android. My first one was with Maps to show waypoints and routes. A slideshow might be something to help me learn some more. I don't know if I'd be able to help you much for a while but eventually I should get something useful.
    Could you put your project into a zip file, put it some site and PM me a link? I'd appreciate it.

    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
