Android — Square TableLayout

I have a need to create a perfect square TableLayout. The table is a grid of equal sized objects. The problem here is that in landscape layout, the table should take up the maximum amount of space but nothing more. In other words, I need the width of the table equal to the maximum height allowable. An ad appears

10 seconds or so after the activity starts so that also adds to the complexity.

Here is what I’ve tried so far to accomplish this:

• I created a invisible view that was aligned horizontally center. I then aligned the right side of the table to this view. This works but for some devices, the screen ratio doesn’t make this setup perfect. On devices like the droid, the bottom row is squinched in because the table width is smaller than the height.
• I created an ImageView with adjustViewBounds set to true. I sourced it with a very large square image. I have it set to be above the adView and align top and align left. I then set the table layout to align to the bounds of that ImageView. This didn’t work because it was a memory hog and the image bounds never fully adjusted when the ad popped up. The image source would go to a smaller scaled square but the right bound never adjusted to the new bounds.

I think this could be very easy if I made a custom class of the TableLayout and set the tablewidth = tableheight. I am struggling with this idea because I don’t know where all I would need place the necessary logic. I suppose I would need to add it when the table gets initially drawn and again when the Table adjusts after the ad moves into place.

Can someone help with some sample code on the TableLayout class? Is there another way to do this?

Update 3/30 9:05PM PST

I’ve made some progress with a custom TableLayout class after looking through the suggestion from CommonsWare. I’m closer to achieving the solution using this class but have one left thing to solve. The new TableLayout doesn’t adjust it’s bounds so the width is still taking up additional space even though the contents are sized correctly. The width looks to be set when there isn’t an ad and it never changes after that.

Here is my really simple extended TableLayout class. Note the onMeasure method where I set the width and height both equal to the height:

Here is a screenshot of the problem. I added apurple background to the TableLayout to highlight the problem.

forcing square app icon

I will set a square app icon for my Android App made with Android Studio.

I set my own app icon with File -> New -> Vector Asset
This creates a normal and a round app icon.

If I copy and rename (ic_launcher_round.png) the quadratic app icon and install it for example on OnePlus Launcher i get the round icon, too.

My Logo is square, so it is really ugly to see it round.
How I can force a quadratic app icon? Is this possible?

If I set only android:icon=»@mipmap/ic_launcher» instead of this and android:roundIcon=»@mipmap/ic_launcher_round» in my Manifest.xml nothing change.

Your app’s icon will be rounded when a launcher decides to make it rounded.

The «launcher» is just another app, like yours, but it is not your app — it is separated completely from it, and you can’t normally influence any process that is separated from your app’s process, OS will forbid that. Only sometimes you would be able to do something like that by utilizing some form of Inter Process Communication (IPC) offered by your OS, assuming of course that the process you want to communicate with is also ‘willing to talk’ with you [utilizes the same form of IPC to allow other process to change some of its behaviors].

Also the purpose of the Android Studio’s wizard you used was to help you generate ready-to-use drawable files and it was just to save your time on making these drawables all by yourself in some image editor.

Any drawable set inside XML manifest file for being your app’s round icon will be rounded a t the end and that is no matter how it actually looks. I don’t think you can expect any currently available major launcher application to display some apps’ icons as round and some as square. It would significantly harm its user experience.

I’m afraid you will have to adapt to this situation and make your square app’s logo a little bit smaller and leave some empty space around it to allow end user’s launcher app to draw a circle around this logo.

Here you can find official recommendations for designing Android apps’ launcher icons: https://material.io/guidelines/style/icons.html#icons-icons-for-android and here you can read about the most current approach in a subject of Android apps’ icons: Adaptive ones. Any other type of icon can be treated as ‘legacy’ and used only for compatability reasons when targeting APIs below 26.

Edit: In the comments section OP mentioned some apps that do currently have square icons in their newest versions and that turned out to actually be a small UX design flaw of its developers.

Just as an example, I’ve downloaded Bytecoin app OP mentioned, and this is how it looks like on my phone, Android 7.0:

The red object in the corner has ben cut off. I think we can assume that every other app on the Google Play that displays there with square logo [which looks good in their store pages because Google Play allows square logos] will look bad when installed on phones with modern versions of launchers, especially api >=26.
