Note Grid

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The 8x8 overflows the box if you use all maybe numbers. And really, the 7x7 and 
8x8 both overflow a bit once you reach the 7th maybe number.

I have seen other KenKen apps which display the maybes as a grid instead of a 
line. It would be a 2x2 for the 4x4, and a 3x3 for the rest, centered on the 
selected square. It's important to keep the placement of each number spatially 
consistent, so that the user can rely on spatial memory to quickly glance and 
know which numbers are being considered.

So the two grids would always be:

1 2
3 4

1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9

And upon selecting a maybe number, the number would appear on this grid in its 
standard location centered on the selected space.

I'm running all this on the Motorola Droid running Android 2.2

Modified so that the maybe numbers are always shown in a 3x3 square (even for 
4x4 puzzle):
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9

Because the maths result e.g. "72x" is shown in the top left of some boxes, 
it's not possible to use the whole box to display the maybe number grid. For 
consistency, maybe number grid is always the same size, regardless of whether a 
box contains a maths result.

Also modified the maybe tickbox behaviour slightly to avoid maybe numbers and a 
value being shown in a box at the same time.
