I have set up a web site for the finished app at http://DaysWithoutThings.com and you can download it free directly from the app store:





In this article I am going to discuss what I did to test my app and work through how I resolved some of the issues I found.

Create a class for my compound widget

This is the third in a four part article detailing the implementation of a compound widget for Android Lollipop. In this part I will implement a class to hold the code that defines my widget's behavior.

Create a layout for a compound widget

This is the second in a four part article detailing the implementation of a compound widget for Android Lollipop. In this part I will implement the layout file for my widget. It will contain 4 sub widgets - 3 sliders  to adjust the quantity of red, green, and blue in the color and a preview area to show the color.


The orange rectangle represents the preview area and the red, green, and blue bars represent their respective color sliders. The gray rectangles represent layout elements. The outer layout will be a horizontal LinearLayout. The inner layout will hold the three color sliders and be a vertical LinearLayout.
