View to Show Third Party Licenses in Android App

Question

I'm new to Android App Development and was studying about various views. There was a particular view which caught my attention and is used in Google Play Music Android App

I think it is a PopUpWindow but not fully sure. How can we achieve this kind of View and customize the text inside it?

Answer 1

It is a custom dialog my friend. Follow these steps to create your own custom dailog:

step 1 :-> create a layout file custom_layout in res/layout folder like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/tv"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:padding="10dp"
    android:text="hello world" />

<Button
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:padding="10dp"
    android:text="hello world" />

<EditText
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:padding="10dp"
    android:text="hello world" />

<ImageView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center"
    android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher" />

step :-> 2 create a dialog like this in your activity java file

 Dialog custoDialog = new Dialog(MainActivity.this);
    custoDialog.setContentView(R.layout.custom_layout);

    Window window = custoDialog.getWindow();
    window.setLayout(WindowManager.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
    window.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);


    // acces you custom dialog controlss like this
    TextView tv = (TextView) custoDialog.findViewById(R.id.tv);
    tv.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            //perfom actions here
        }
    });
    custoDialog.show();
