Android no label views

Error message ‘no label views point to this text field’

I’ve just been doing the tutorial on how to make a temperature converter, but the tutorial does not explain how to get rid of the exclamation mark on my edit text input. The error is:

No label views point to this text field with an android:labelFor=»+id/@+id/editText1″attribute

Take another look at your XML layout file. You want to have @+id/editText1 as the id. When you reference it, you want to call:

Note that you don’t need to write the @+id/ when referencing, only when defining an attribute. Maybe that could be the problem.

Also, if you want to change the text, I have not read the tutorial, but it should be defined inside strings.xml .

Add this to your TextView in the layout xml:

I don’t know why, but it works.

If you prefer to suppress the error using lint, I’ll describe below how to figure out the name of the lint warning to suppress.

Full warning message to suppress:

No label views point to this text field with an android:labelFor=»@+id/searchTextView» attribute

Text fields should be labelled with a labelFor attribute, provided your minSdkVersion is at least 17.

If your view is labeled but by a label in a different layout which includes this one, just suppress this warning from lint.

To suppress it, add the attribute tools:ignore=»LabelFor» to the component declaration, for example:

To determine that the value was LabelFor , I did as follows in Android Studio:

Difference between android:id and android:labelFor?

I wrote a simple layout which has an EditText , but it’s showing the following warning message:

“No label views point to this text field”

While searching I found this and it solved that warning message, but did not get difference between both attributes android:id and android:labelFor . Any clarification?

Supply an identifier name for this view, to later retrieve it with View.findViewById() or Activity.findViewById() . This must be a resource reference; typically you set this using the @+ syntax to create a new ID resources. For example: android:id=»@+id/my_id» which allows you to later retrieve the view with findViewById(R.id.my_id) .

Must be a reference to another resource, in the form «@[+][package:]type:name» or to a theme attribute in the form «?[package:][type:]name».

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol id.

public static final int labelFor

Specifies the id of a view for which this view serves as a label for accessibility purposes. For example, a TextView before an EditText in the UI usually specifies what infomation is contained in the EditText. Hence, the TextView is a label for the EditText.

Must be an integer value, such as «100».

This may also be a reference to a resource (in the form «@[package:]type:name») or theme attribute (in the form «?[package:][type:]name») containing a value of this type.

Constant Value: 16843718 (0x010103c6)

Remove BottomNavigationView labels

Google released new support library v25 with BottomNavigationView

is there any way to remove items labels ?

8 Answers 8

I hope I am not too late to the party here.

But as of Design Support Library 28.0.0-alpha1 you can use the property

you can use other values «auto», «labeled» and «selected» as well.

Would you want to this style ?

Unfortunately this first version of BottomNavigationView came with a lot of limitations. And for now you can’t remove the titles just using the support design API. So to solve this limitation while google doesn’t implement it, you can do (using reflection):

1. Set the titles empty in from bottom_navigation_menu.xml file.

2. Extends the BottomNavigationView:

3. Add to the layout.xml this customView

For more details I have implemented this on Github

Meaning of «No label views point to this text field» warning message

What is the meaning of this warning?

No label views point to this text field with an android:labelFor=»@ id/@ id/editText1″ attribute

Note that the double id ( @id/@id ) is a problem with the error message text and does not reflect the XML content (which is the correct syntax).

8 Answers 8

The labelFor is an attribute for accessibility options. You assign this to a label so that if, on a form , user clicks a textedit field , android can know what to read (TalkBack) to user.

The id you assigned to it doesn’t seem to be a valid one. why there are two @id in the id? Use ids like this: @id/editText1

I’ve had the same warning message. It disappeared, when I added a hint to my EditText

Although I am not familiar with the exact error you have posted. But it definitely sounds like you have done something wrong with the id in the textView . Use id like following in your textView .

And if you want to set labelFor then use :

It means that you probably should define a label for this edit text and link them using a labelFor inside that labels definition.

and it’s not only for text views.

Remove th first ‘@id/’ , use like

which is the correct format. Keep going.. Best wishes.. 🙂

I solved it by writing both attributes:

Select the editText, go to Properties, then Label for and enter @id/EditText1

If the XML looks correct and you’re in a Graphical Layout mode then it’s probably using a later version of the Android rendering layout that doesn’t support EditText.

In Eclipse and Android Studio there should be a green Android icon with what API version is rendering the layout. Make sure you’re using a non W or Wearable API as Android W APIs don’t support the EditText element. (EditText is most likely not supported because virtual keyboard space is limited on those devices).

The rendered preview should support EditText in any API 4.X version without a trailing W.

How disable / remove android activity label and label bar?

Is there anyway to remove activity label bar and label itself which is set by default from application label? I’d like to have whole layout from my design and need to remove the label bar and label which is in TOP layout.

You can achieve this by setting the android:theme attribute to @android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar on your element in your AndroidManifest.xml like this:

If your application theme is AppTheme(or anything else), then in styles.xml add the following code:

Then in manifest file add the following in the activity tag for which you want to disable activity label:

I am not 100% sure this is what you want but if you are referring to the title bar (the little gray strip at the top), you can remove/customize it via your manifest.xml file.

You have two ways to hide the title bar by hiding it in a specific activity or hiding it on all of the activity in your app.

You can achieve this by create a custom theme in your styles.xml .

If you are using AppCompatActivity, there is a bunch of themes that android provides nowadays. And if you choose a theme that has .NoActionBar or .NoTitleBar . It will disable you action bar for your theme.

After setting up a custom theme, you might want to use the theme in you activity/activities. Go to manifest and choose the activity that you want to set the theme on.

SPECIFIC ACTIVITY

AndroidManifest.xml

Notice that I have set the FirstActivity theme to the custom theme MyTheme . This way the theme will only be affected on certain activity. If you don’t want to hide toolbar for all your activity then try this approach.

The second approach is where you set the theme to all of your activity.

ALL ACTIVITY

Notice that I have set the application theme to the custom theme MyTheme. This way the theme will only be affected on all of activity. If you want to hide toolbar for all your activity then try this approach instead.
