Android Question Show panel from class

[imgsimonebiliato]

Hello,
I created a class with a custom panel.
I want to create an event "Show", showing the panel in the main activity.
How do I do?

You have two options:
1. Pass the Activity to the Show sub:

Public Sub Show(Activity As Activity)

2. Create a sub that returns the internal view and add the custom panel in the activity code:

Public Sub getView As View
 Return innerPanel
End Sub

Hello,
I used the first method.
But using the 2, I must call the MainActivity.AddView(...) ?

Yes. If you are creating a custom control then with the AsView property you are allowing the client to treat the custom control like any other control.

I saw that using CustomDialog2, I call the method "Show", but without passing any panels or activity.
How do I implement this?

The dialogs are based on a different mechanism. You will need to add your panel to another panel or activity.

So in the class, I create a panel that it is show in another panel?

For a dialog an Activity will be better.
