Connection Indicator

A very small library to implement a connection indicator view. These connections may be GPS, Network or other loading indicators.

This is only an initial version of the library and I will be making improvements as I go.

At the moment there aren't any attribute setters in code. All attributes must be set via XML.

<com.stustirling.connectionindicator.ConnectionIndicatorView

  android:layout_width="60dp"

  android:layout_height="wrap_content"

  android:id="@+id/indicator"

  android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"

  android:layout_marginBottom="2dp"

  connection_indicator:emptyBarColor="@color/greyColor"

  connection_indicator:solidSearchBarColor="@color/whiteColor"

  connection_indicator:bars="4"

  connection_indicator:animType="incremental"

  connection_indicator:connectionLevels="4"/> 

There are two animTypes:

• flash = Alternates between connection level of 0 and max.
• incremental = Each bar is turned solid in turn until all are solid and then it goes back to 0.

To begin search mode:

indicatorView.startSearching();
 

To stop searching:

indicatorView.stopSearching();
 

To display a certain "connection level" call the following:

indicatorView.displayConnectionLevel( 2 );
