Question

Basically I need help with the if else statement below. It is for a toggle button making a light bulb turn on and off. I can get the toggle to turn it on. Where I am confused is how to turn it back off.

package csc122.project.lightbulb;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.app.Activity;

import android.view.Menu;

import android.view.MotionEvent;

import android.view.View;

import android.view.View.OnClickListener;

import android.view.View.OnTouchListener;

import android.widget.Button;

import android.widget.ImageView;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

private ImageView light_off;

private ImageView light_on;

private Button buttontoggle;

@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

{

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

light_off = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.light_off);

light_on = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.light_on);

buttontoggle = (Button)findViewById(R.id.buttontoggle);

light_off.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener()

{

@Override

public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event)

{

//set light off to invisible

light_off.setVisibility(ImageView.INVISIBLE);

//set light on to visible

light_on.setVisibility(ImageView.VISIBLE);

return true;

}

});

light_on.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener()

{

@Override

public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event)

{

light_on.setVisibility(ImageView.INVISIBLE);

light_off.setVisibility(ImageView.VISIBLE);

return true;

}

});

buttontoggle.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()

{

@Override

public void onClick(View v)

//stuck here

{

if (buttontoggle.isPressed())

{light_on.setVisibility(ImageView.VISIBLE);

}

else

{light_off.setVisibility(ImageView.VISIBLE);

}

}});

}

@Override

public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {

// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.

getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);

return true;

}

}

Explanation / Answer

//Replace your if else code with thisif(light_on.getVisibility() == View.VISIBLE){ light_on.setVisibility(ImageView.INVISIBLE); light_off.setVisibility(ImageView.VISIBLE);} else if(light_off.getVisibility() == View.VISIBLE){ light_on.setVisibility(ImageView.VISIBLE); light_off.setVisibility(ImageView.INVISIBLE);}
