Couldn't expand RemoteViews
You cannot put an EditText
into a RemoteViews
. RemoteViews
is limited to a handful of possible widgets, specifically those documented for use on an app widget. And, for a Notification
, I doubt that the AdapterView
options, like ListView
, will work either.
Not all views can be used in RemoteViews. A RemoteViews object can support the following layout classes:
FrameLayout
LinearLayout
RelativeLayout
GridLayout
AnalogClock
Button
Chronometer
ImageButton
ImageView
ProgressBar
TextView
ViewFlipper
ListView
GridView
StackView
AdapterViewFlipper
You can't use other layout classes like EditText
or CustomViews.
For me, it was because I was setting the text inside the remoteViews TextViews incorrectly. I was doing this:
remoteViews.setString(R.id.txt, "setText", "text");
Using one of these methods solved it for me:
remoteViews.setCharSequence(R.id.txt, "setText", "text");
//Or simply:
remoteViews.setTextViewText(R.id.txt, "text");
