Hello, I am having a problem with a calendar app i am writing. I have three GridViews within a ViewFlipper . Each GridView shows a month. The ViewFlipper responds to flings in order to flip to the next or previous month GridView and update the unseen GridViews. The problem is that while the first month shows perfectly the adjacent two months in either direction dont appear at all until the user has flinged past them to the third month away. So if I start in February, March wont show until I fling to May and then back to March. April wont show until I fling to June and back. However, once I fling to June all months show correctly and the calendar works perfectly in both directions.
It would appear to be an initialization problem but the method that initializes the months is the same used to flip the months. All three months are initialized to now in the constructor and then flipped by 0, +1, & -1 using the same method that flips them on fling. I thought that unseen GridViews might not inflate immediately, so I tried waiting for a few minutes before flinging and it still happened. I am calling onFinishInflate() everywhere things are being inflated and they are all called predictably. The GridView population happens in a separate thread, so I suspected that the GridView is displayed before the thread has a chance to finish running. However, this theory is suspect because the problem only happens on initialization. After three flings the whole thing works perfectly regardless of how fast or slow you fling it. At this point I am at a loss. When I tried this using TableLayouts instead of GridViews the fling initialization worked perfectly (but the grid was not uniform, so I cant use TableLayout). Is there some strange interaction between GridView and ViewSwitcher that prevents the unseen GridViews from rendering immediately? Any ideas?
