Hi All,

I am a newbie developer to android. I am trying to develop an application as a test run it is a Q and A app.

Can anyone help me with the following problem.

The pages have 2 radio buttons in a radio group, the center of the page has an image, and a few buttons(Next, Previous, Home) at the bottom. The part I need help with is when a user clicks on a radio button the image needs to disappear and the answer (Text) needs to appear in a scroll text box. The app is Yes/No based so when either button is clicked the image need to disappear and text needs to replace it.

Thank you in advance.

the quick and dirty way to do it is have the ImageView & the TextView defined in the xml and use setVisibility to show and hide as needed.

ie: Image.setVisibility(View.GONE); // hides it completely from the layout
Text.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE); // shows the view in the layout

works on all types of views, overall its the easiest method to impliment
