How to make specific cell layout react to click?

[bogdanmunteanu]

Hi @evrencoskun,

I'm trying to show a selection state on TableView by displaying a green tick when the user clicks a specific cell.

Where I should put the code to make this happen ? From the table listener i cannot access the layout only the cell data.

     @Override
public void onCellClicked(@NonNull RecyclerView.ViewHolder cellView, int column, int row) {
    Log.e("Order table listener::::" ,mTableView.getAdapter().getCellItem(column,row).toString());
    Cell selectedCell =(Cell) mTableView.getAdapter().getCellItem(column,row);
   }

This works ok , as it displays the correct data. I've tried also from the adapter but the click listener is not set. (This seems like the correct approach)

    @Override
public void onBindCellViewHolder(AbstractViewHolder holder, Object cellItemModel, int
        columnPosition, int rowPosition) {
    Cell cell = (Cell) cellItemModel;

        // Get the holder to update cell item text
        CellViewHolder viewHolder = (CellViewHolder) holder;
        viewHolder.setDate(cell.getDate());
        viewHolder.cell_container.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Log.e("Selected cell :::",cell.toString());
                if(cell.isSelected())
                {
                    cell.setSelected(false);
                    viewHolder.selection.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                }else
                {

                        cell.setSelected(true);
                        viewHolder.selection.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);

                }
            }
        });

}

Is there a way of achieving this ?

Hi @bogdanmunteanu

The first parameter is the clicked cell view holder. So, you can get what you want using TableViewListener.

@Override
public void onCellClicked(@NonNull RecyclerView.ViewHolder cellView, int column, int row) {
      // if you have just one view type, you can directly cast your class.    
      if (cellView instanceof CellViewHolder) {
            CellViewHolder cellViewHolder = (CellViewHolder) cellView;
      }
     ....
   }

Hi @evrencoskun ,

Yes, i knew that but the problem was that I did not how to access the layout . I did the following

  Log.e("Order table listener::::" ,mTableView.getAdapter().getCellItem(column,row).toString());
    Cell selectedCell =(Cell) mTableView.getAdapter().getCellItem(column,row);
  CellViewHolder holder = (CellViewHolder)    mTableView.getCellLayoutManager().getCellViewHolder(column,row);
      if(holder!=null) {
          holder.selectionImage.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
   }

Also , I used butterknife in the holders because with findViewById in ocasionally throwed some NPEs.

@BindView(R.id.cell_container)
public LinearLayout cell;

@BindView(R.id.cell_data)
public TextView cellText;

@BindView(R.id.selectionCheck)
public ImageView selectionImage;

@BindView(R.id.ivNotAvailable)
public ImageView notAvailable;
 public CellViewHolder(View itemView) {
     super(itemView);
    cell_textview = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.cell_data);
    cell_container = (LinearLayout) itemView.findViewById(R.id.cell_container);
    ButterKnife.bind(this,itemView);
 }

All good and working. Thanks for your support , issue can be closed :+1: :+1:
