Extras on demand in a Android Dialog



In one of the activities of my application the user can select the language. Since the app is only in 5 languages I'd like to do something like:





When the user press the button language show a dialog displaying the 5 main languages, and a extra option:"Show more languages". If the user select the last one then show the complete list.





I really dont know how to implement that keeping the action natural for the user, since reloading the dialog with all the languages can be confusing.





How can I make that? Thanks

  1. Look at how it is done in the Settings->Language&Keyboard->Select Language it might give you the right idea. Otherwise you can use context menus and sub-menus with lists to implement it.
    Remember that activities have to be restarted in order to apply the language.



    Cheers

  2. i think you could list all languages in a linearlayout surrounded by a scrollview, all hided and added to dialog. When user click button show more languages you could show the layout hided :)

div not scrolling properly with slimScroll plugin

I have made a quick demo of my situation http://jsfiddle.net/DY9CT/2/ Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Why does this javascript based printing cause Safari to refresh the page?

The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome. In the ex
