    <p>Just a bit about my app first. Its a quiz app. It has a main screen displaying a question, which loads straight away, and arrows going <code>previous</code> and <code>next</code> which go to other quiz questions. I'm using the same layout over and over, just by passing different question data, so when I click the "next" button, it will just launch an <code>intent</code> to the same class, just with different data. At the start of my one single layout, I have a little check to see if the user has clicked to hide the disclaimer or not. </p> <p>So my disclaimer pops up at the start of the app. It has a <code>dismiss</code> button and a <code>Dont show this again</code> checkbox. I can get the checkbox working perfect, using <code>SharedPreferences</code> but the problem arises when they hit the <code>Dismiss</code> button. Since I'm reusing the same layout, any time the user navigates to a new question, the disclaimer pops up. I only want it to popup on the first screen, e.g. when the app loads.</p> <p>I have tried setting another <code>SharedPreference</code> to hide the disclaimer when the user hits <code>dismiss</code> but once I hide it, it never comes back, because when the user loads the app back up again, that shared preference is still set. My problem is knowing where to set the preference back! I tried resetting it in <code>onPause()</code> but that didn't work.</p> <p>So, what I'm asking is, how can I determine if an activity is the first one to be loaded so I can only do the Disclaimer check then, and not in each of the subsequent screens?</p> <p>Thanks.</p> <p>EDIT: Here's my <code>OnCreate()</code> method:</p> <pre><code>final static String disclaimerShownPref = "disclaimerShown"; final static String disclaimerShownOnce = "disclaimerShownThisSession"; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); mPrefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this); //Checks to see if the boolean is set //The second argument is the default to use if the preference can't be found if(!mPrefs.getBoolean(disclaimerShownPref, false)) { if(!mPrefs.getBoolean(disclaimerShownOnce, true)) { new Disclaimer(this); } } topMostLayout=buildHomeScreen(); setContentView(topMostLayout); } </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
