You need to override onSaveInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState)
and write the application state values you want to change to the Bundle
parameter like this:
@Override
public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onSaveInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
// Save UI state changes to the savedInstanceState.
// This bundle will be passed to onCreate if the process is
// killed and restarted.
savedInstanceState.putBoolean("MyBoolean", true);
savedInstanceState.putDouble("myDouble", 1.9);
savedInstanceState.putInt("MyInt", 1);
savedInstanceState.putString("MyString", "Welcome back to Android");
// etc.
}
The Bundle is essentially a way of storing a NVP ("Name-Value Pair") map, and it will get passed in to onCreate()
and also onRestoreInstanceState()
where you would then extract the values from activity like this:
@Override
public void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
// Restore UI state from the savedInstanceState.
// This bundle has also been passed to onCreate.
boolean myBoolean = savedInstanceState.getBoolean("MyBoolean");
double myDouble = savedInstanceState.getDouble("myDouble");
int myInt = savedInstanceState.getInt("MyInt");
String myString = savedInstanceState.getString("MyString");
}
Or from a fragment.
@Override
public void onViewStateRestored(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onViewStateRestored(savedInstanceState);
// Restore UI state from the savedInstanceState.
// This bundle has also been passed to onCreate.
boolean myBoolean = savedInstanceState.getBoolean("MyBoolean");
double myDouble = savedInstanceState.getDouble("myDouble");
int myInt = savedInstanceState.getInt("MyInt");
String myString = savedInstanceState.getString("MyString");
}
You would usually use this technique to store instance values for your application (selections, unsaved text, etc.).
To fix the OutOfMemory error, you should do something like this:
BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
options.inSampleSize = 8;
Bitmap preview_bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is, null, options);
This inSampleSize
option reduces memory consumption.
Here's a complete method. First it reads image size without decoding the content itself. Then it finds the best inSampleSize
value, it should be a power of 2, and finally the image is decoded.
// Decodes image and scales it to reduce memory consumption
private Bitmap decodeFile(File f) {
try {
// Decode image size
BitmapFactory.Options o = new BitmapFactory.Options();
o.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
BitmapFactory.decodeStream(new FileInputStream(f), null, o);
// The new size we want to scale to
final int REQUIRED_SIZE=70;
// Find the correct scale value. It should be the power of 2.
int scale = 1;
while(o.outWidth / scale / 2 >= REQUIRED_SIZE &&
o.outHeight / scale / 2 >= REQUIRED_SIZE) {
scale *= 2;
}
// Decode with inSampleSize
BitmapFactory.Options o2 = new BitmapFactory.Options();
o2.inSampleSize = scale;
return BitmapFactory.decodeStream(new FileInputStream(f), null, o2);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {}
return null;
}

As cephus mentioned
android:drawablePadding
will only force padding between the text and the drawable if the button is small enough.When laying out larger buttons you can use
android:drawablePadding
in conjunction withandroid:paddingLeft
andandroid:paddingRight
to force the text and drawable inward towards the center of the button. By adjusting the left and right padding separately you can make very detailed adjustments to the layout.Here's an example button that uses padding to push the text and icon closer together than they would be by default:
