Try this:

gallery (2).aia (46.7 KB)

Thank you so much. Great help.


how do I remove this scroll line?

Try this:

For me, the scrollbar was still appearing at runtime (though disappearing after about 1/2 second. I added a clock timer to make the gallery visible after 100ms, and this seems to resolve that issue.

works fine. thanks.

newGallery (1).aia (169.2 KB)
thanks for solving my earlier issue. Now I have added another scroll arrangement and tried to display the image in its original size. It doesn't work.

have you set all the images clickable?


i have a horizontal arrangement of images. When an image is clicked, it should be displayed overlay in its full size with a close button. is it possible

From your image, the overlay cannot really be any bigger, given it almost fills the width of the screen ?

yes, can this be done?

I would be very pleased if its possible darken the background layers when I open an overlapped layer. I mean, the android system makes this already when we use the spinner or notifier components. Then it must be possible, or not?





which extension are you using

com.vsatish.overlapview.aix

This is possibly the wrong extension for getting a darkened background. You need one that creates a dialog, and also ensure that your dialog does not completely fill the screen.

then CTRL+F "dialog"

I tried the "overlapTestExtn.aia" but never got it working with the AI companion. With different phones, with different Android versions. Screen initialisation seems to abort, companion shows start display (The two 'connect' buttons) Always get the error:
Runtime Error

Unable to load extensions.java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1
Note: You will not see another error reported for 5 seconds.

-Although there seem to be some kind of connection, but without any display...
Creating an .apk does work, (at least for the mentioned test app) but testing a kinda bigger app would be a pain in the a...

This is a general issue with the companion app, which has been reported here

Ok, thanks for the link!

Ok, I verified to be the error with the companion app. Does work with the debugged version.
So sorry for the disturbance and thank you for hinting me to the right direction.
