Public Methods

public void onInitializeAccessibilityEvent (AccessibilityEvent event)

Initializes an AccessibilityEvent with information about this View which is the event source. In other words, the source of an accessibility event is the view whose state change triggered firing the event.

Example: Setting the password property of an event in addition to properties set by the super implementation:

 public void onInitializeAccessibilityEvent(AccessibilityEvent event) {
     super.onInitializeAccessibilityEvent(event);
     event.setPassword(true);
 }

If an View.AccessibilityDelegate has been specified via calling setAccessibilityDelegate(AccessibilityDelegate) its onInitializeAccessibilityEvent(View, AccessibilityEvent) is responsible for handling this call.

Note: Always call the super implementation before adding information to the event, in case the default implementation has basic information to add.

Parameters
event The event to initialize.

public void onInitializeAccessibilityNodeInfo (AccessibilityNodeInfo info)

Parameters
info The instance to initialize.

public void setBackgroundDrawable (Drawable background)

This method is deprecated.
use setBackground(Drawable) instead

public void setBackgroundResource (int resId)

Set the background to a given resource. The resource should refer to a Drawable object or 0 to remove the background.

Parameters
resId The identifier of the resource.

public void setSupportAllCaps (boolean allCaps)

Sets the properties of this field to transform input to ALL CAPS display. This may use a "small caps" formatting if available. This setting will be ignored if this field is editable or selectable. This call replaces the current transformation method. Disabling this will not necessarily restore the previous behavior from before this was enabled.

public void setTextAppearance (Context context, int resId)

This method is deprecated.
Use setTextAppearance(int) instead.

Sets the text color, size, style, hint color, and highlight color from the specified TextAppearance resource.

Protected Methods

protected void drawableStateChanged ()

This function is called whenever the state of the view changes in such a way that it impacts the state of drawables being shown.

If the View has a StateListAnimator, it will also be called to run necessary state change animations.

Be sure to call through to the superclass when overriding this function.
