Try this on button click on dialog
Dialog dialog2 = new Dialog(context);
dialog2.setContentView(R.layout.dialog2);
dialog.dismiss();
dialog2.show();
Question
I am trying to open a Dialog box when pressing on a button of a dialog box. --> buttonPressed --> Dialog1 --> Dialog2
the first dialog box gets created as following:
(When button is pressed):
final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(context);
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.dialog1); //<-- dialog1 contains a button
final Button button1 = (Button)dialog.findViewById(R.id.button1); //<--in dialog1
button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
//A NEW DIALOG BOX SHOULD APPEAR HERE WHEN BUTTON1 GETS CLICKED
}
});
dialog.show();
That's my code so far. What I've tried is to close the dialog box and then open up a new Dialog:
dialog.dismiss();
Dialog dialog2 = new Dialog(context);
dialog2.setContentView(R.layout.dialog2);
dialog.show();
But when trying to open a new Dialog box like this I get some error in the Coreographer.class. I assume that's because a closed dialog box can't create a new Dialog box. Now my question is, how would You open a Dialog box from another Dialog box by clicking on it's button?
Solution
Try this on button click on dialog
Dialog dialog2 = new Dialog(context);
dialog2.setContentView(R.layout.dialog2);
dialog.dismiss();
dialog2.show();
OTHER TIPS
Instead of using context use
Dialog dialog2 = new Dialog(YourActivityName.this);
Try That
final Dialog dialog1 = new Dialog(context);
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.dialog1); //<-- dialog1 contains a button
final Button button1 = (Button)dialog1.findViewById(R.id.button1); //<--in dialog1
button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
//A NEW DIALOG BOX SHOULD APPEAR HERE WHEN BUTTON1 GETS CLICKED
Dialog dialog2 = new Dialog(context);
dialog2.setContentView(R.layout.dialog2);
dialog1.dismiss();
dialog2.show();
}
});
dialog.show();
