Titanium.Android.R

The Titanium binding of the native Android R class, giving access to Android system-wide resources or application resources.

To access system-wide resources your application's resources, use Titanium.Android.R. To access your application's resources, use Titanium.App.Android.R.

These properties and sub-properties correspond directly to the properties of the the android.R class, and should have the same syntax. To retrieve the "OK" string from system resources in Android:

Ti.Android.currentActivity.getString(Ti.Android.R.string.ok);

If the file platform/android/res/drawable/icon.png exists in the project, it can be accessed using its resource name, as follows:

var resid = Titanium.App.Android.R.drawable.icon;

See also: android.R in the Android Developer Reference. For more information, refer to the official documentation on the Android Developer website about accessing application resources.

Starting in Titanium SDK 7.3.0, this API exposes all Android related R classes for the usage in Hyperloop. For example, it can be used to access menu resources as part of native user interfaces, e.g. BottomNavigationView or RecyclerView. See an example in the Hyperloop Sample App for details!

Properties #

anim#

Type: Object

Animation resources. See
R.anim
in the Android Developer Reference.

animator#

Type: Object

Animator resources. See
R.animator
in the Android Developer Reference.

apiName#

extended

Type: String

The name of the API that this proxy corresponds to.

The value of this property is the fully qualified name of the API. For example, Button
returns Ti.UI.Button.

array#

bubbleParent#

extended

Type: Boolean

Indicates if the proxy will bubble an event to its parent.

Some proxies (most commonly views) have a relationship to other proxies, often
established by the add() method. For example, for a button added to a window, a
click event on the button would bubble up to the window. Other common parents are
table sections to their rows, table views to their sections, and scrollable views
to their views. Set this property to false to disable the bubbling to the proxy's parent.

color#

Type: Object

Color resources. See
R.color
in the Android Developer Reference.

Methods #

addEventListener #

extended

Adds the specified callback as an event listener for the named event.

Parameters:
NameTypeSummaryOptional
nameStringName of the event.No
callbackCallback<Titanium.Event>Callback function to invoke when the event is fired.No

applyProperties #

extended

Applies the properties to the proxy.

Properties are supplied as a dictionary. Each key-value pair in the object is applied to the proxy such that
myproxy[key] = value.

Parameters:
NameTypeSummaryOptional
propsDictionaryA dictionary of properties to apply.No

fireEvent #

extended

Fires a synthesized event to any registered listeners.

Parameters:
NameTypeSummaryOptional
nameStringName of the event.No
eventDictionaryA dictionary of keys and values to add to the Titanium.Event object sent to the listeners.Yes

removeEventListener #

extended

Removes the specified callback as an event listener for the named event.

Multiple listeners can be registered for the same event, so the
callback parameter is used to determine which listener to remove.

When adding a listener, you must save a reference to the callback function
in order to remove the listener later:

var listener = function() { Ti.API.info("Event listener called."); }
window.addEventListener('click', listener);

To remove the listener, pass in a reference to the callback function:

window.removeEventListener('click', listener);
Parameters:
NameTypeSummaryOptional
nameStringName of the event.No
callbackCallback<Titanium.Event>Callback function to remove. Must be the same function passed to addEventListener.No
