Android Question InputListAsync disappears when Home is pressed

[Patrick Clark]

If I use InputListAsync as below and then hit the Home Button and the restore the app the Input list doesn't reappear.

How do I have this restore correctly?

InputListAsync(bl, "Select Brand", -1, False)        
Wait For InputList_Result (Index As Int)

Show the inputlist again if you still need the answer. Hitting the homebutton just put your complete app into background (activity pause). In fact you are stopping the inputlist with action ABORT (result negative)

How do I show the inputlist again? When I get back to the app I am in Activity_Resume and not where the Wait For was

the same way you did it before

I know that but if I put it in Activity_Resume the result will never get to the code path that followed the original inputlist.

You can use B4XDialog instead. It will be kept as long as the activity is not killed.

Thanks @Erel I will take a look at that

Hi @Erel

I am looking at you B4XDialogs example but B4A says it doesnt understand B4XDialog type

    Private dialog As B4XDialog
    Private fieldFirstName As B4XFloatTextField
    Private fieldLastName As B4XFloatTextField

I have loaded the XUI library, what other library do I need?

 

[Erel]

B4XDialog is part of XUI Views library.

Excellent, this is perfect apart from the colors.

Is it possible to change the background colors. For example the listview (Animals in you sample app) has a grey background and white text but I would like it to be white with black text.

I have looked in the library and changed the properties of the CustomlistView but that doesn't work.

You should start a new thread.
