Spinner widget with Hint/Header label.
Step 1: Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
}
}
Step 2: Add the dependency
dependencies {
...
implementation 'com.github.jaiselrahman:HintSpinner:1.0.0'
}
In xml layout,
<com.jaiselrahman.hintspinner.HintSpinner
android:id="@+id/hint_spinner"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
In Java,
HintSpinner hintSpinner = findViewById(R.id.hint_spinner);
hintSpinner.setAdapter(new HintSpinnerAdapter<String>(this, strings, "Your Hint"));
If you are using custom objects then your can override getLabelFor(T t)
to get label.
hintSpinner.setAdapter(new HintSpinnerAdapter<Person>(this, persons, "Select a person") {
@Override
public String getLabelFor(Person person) {
return person.getName();
}
});
You can also change the hint dynamically.
hintSpinnerAdapter.setHint("Your Hint");
hintSpinnerAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
