Android Question [solved] seekbar prob

[DPaul]

Hi,

I have a number of seekbars on screen (standard ones, not with delayed response).
They behave quite normally until one point in the app, always the same point,
where sliding them (direction left = to edge of the screen)
causes the background to go black and the seekbar receives a "green" frame.
The program does not crash, but goes back to normal when touching any other control.
To make it worse, passing through the same point a second, third...times does not repeat this behaviour.

I know, there must be a bug, 99% sure, although the logic is not particularly difficult, and i
obviously tested various possibilities.
The 1% left, causes me to ask if anybody knows of some event that triggers this behaviour.
It's like it changes the "theme" for just this event. Memory overload ?

Sliding to the right (value = 2) does not cause this behaviour, to the left = value 0.
But if value = 0 is a problem, and it is not, the program would crash, no?

Hi
I guess from your description that you are losing the focus of the seekbar
and getting the focus on whatever view is behind the seekbar.

Well, not "solved" but not a problem any more.
In another thread, i mentioned that i got a new tablet (samsung 10.1, android 6.0.1).
I ran the exact same code and .. the problem is gone.
Seems that some things are device and/or android-version dependent.
