Labs Q&A Fall 2013

  • Has anyone run into a problem where the emulator refuses to rotate (at all, never mind the layout of the running app)? I tried Ctrl+f11/f12, f11/f12, but none of them work. And I don't have a number pad on my laptop to try 7/9. --Andrew
    • I pressed the HOME key (number pad) on my laptop and the emulator's orientation changed from portrait to landscape. (Peter)
      • Figured it out - it was already used by the xfce window manager to switch to desktop 11/12, just cleared that binding and now it works as it should with the emulator. --Andrew
  • If my app has an activity (activity1) that starts another activity (activity2), what's the relationship between these two? Is it possible that Android will kill activity1 since activity2 is te current activity? What if activity2 is not full screen, does that make a difference?
  • How to capture emulator screenshots in Eclipse? [1] [2]
