ConstraintLayout 2.0.0 beta 2

pondelok 17. júna 2019

We are happy to announce the release of ConstraintLayout 2.0 beta 2. It’s available from the google maven repository:dependencies {
implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:2.0.0-beta2'
}
or if using the AndroidX packages:dependencies {
implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:2.0.0-beta2'
}

Documentation is available on https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/constraint/classes.htmlExamples are available on https://github.com/googlesamples/android-ConstraintLayoutExamples New in Beta 2 Flowflow_lastHorizontalStyle : spread|spread_inside|packedflow_lastVerticalStyle : spread|spread_inside|packedflow_lastVerticalBias : floatflow_lastHorizontalBias : float MotionLayout APIs additions

MotionLayout.TransitionListener no longer has the method allowsTransition. This was replaced with the MotionScene.Transition.setEnable

Added APIs to construct a MotionScene and Transition programmatically and manipulate them.

Transition ID

You can now name transitions with an ID using the attribute

MotionScene.Transition MotionLayout.getTransition(int id)

<Transition

android:id="@id/tobigsceen" ...

Transition Disable

Now you can disable and enable Transitions in XML and programmatically. A <Transition> now has an attribute transitionDisable. You can also enable or disable them programmatically with Transition.setEnable(true) and query with Transition.isEnabled().

Important: This replaces the callback “allowsTransition” in the interface MotionLayout.TransitionListener

View Velocity

public void getViewVelocity(View view, float posOnViewX, float posOnViewY, float[] returnVelocity, int type) {

Accessing the Velocity of an animating view. You can get the velocity a view is moving at.
It takes the coordinate on the view and returns the velocity of the view.
There are 4 types of velocities it can return. It can return static or dynamic, pre or post layout.

The static velocity does not incorporate the actual motion driven by touch.

public final static int VELOCITY_POST_LAYOUT = 0;

public final static int VELOCITY_LAYOUT = 1;

public final static int VELOCITY_STATIC_POST_LAYOUT = 2;

public final static int VELOCITY_STATIC_LAYOUT = 3;

To aid in understanding how to use it, we have included a utility view MotionTelltales based on MockView but showing the velocity of 25 points on the view.

Key Trigger redirection

Now a KeyTrigger can trigger a method on another view using the attribute triggerReceiver.

<KeyTrigger

motion:triggerReceiver="@+id/view" ...

Emulator 29.1.0 Canary

piatok 7. júna 2019

Added -logcat-output command line option to print logcat to a file if the -logcat option is specified. Example:

emulator -avd <avd-name> -logcat V:* # Output to stdout
emulator -avd <avd-name> -logcat V:* -logcat-output /tmp/log.txt # Output to file

Added command line flags to change the language, country, and/or locale of the emulator. Upon specifying these flags, the emulator will cold boot a few times to apply the change. This does not yet work for Play Store images due the current need to run superuser commands. Example:

emulator -avd <avd-name> -change-language es
emulator -avd <avd-name> -change-language en -change-country US
emulator -avd <avd-name> -change-language fr -change-country CA -change-locale fr-CA

Fixed memory use after free error in automation agent. Details

Fixed bug where GL_BGRA_EXT could not be used as an internal format for 3D textures. Details

(Currently Linux emulator only) Added -cpu-features whitelist command line flag to enable certain sets of CPU features if the host supports them. Currently, this only enables AES.

Multiple Displays. Added support for multiple virtual displays. This will require a future Q system image update. Multiple virtual displays should make it easier to test multi-screen device configurations such as desktop mode, automotive interfaces, and foldables.
