Hello, sorry to bother you but I have ran into another small problem that I can't figure out. I've watched tutorials, browsed stackoverflow and googled it and still can't get it working.
I'm making a really simple app where the user can change the application's background color by using a spinner in the actionbar.
The background color is saved as least temporary but as soon as I close the app, the chosen background color vanishes.
String Color_Value;
int mycolor;
int change=0;
View root;
View someView;
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
if (savedInstanceState != null){
savedInstanceState.getInt(Color_Value, mycolor);
someView = findViewById(R.id.layout);
someView.setBackgroundColor(mycolor);
}
public void ChangeBackgroundtoOrange(){
mycolor = android.R.color.holo_orange_light;
someView = findViewById(R.id.layout);
root = someView.getRootView();
root.setBackgroundColor(getResources().getColor(android.R.color.holo_orange_light));
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Color Changed", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState){
outState.putInt(Color_Value, mycolor);
super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
}
public void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState){
savedInstanceState.getInt(Color_Value);
super.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
}
For simplicities sake, I've taken out most of the code but if the user were to select orange, how can I make it so the app will defaut to the orange background the next time I open the app? Thank you for your time.
