    <p>My activity declares all of its GUI fragments in a single XML layout. It only needs to display a few of the fragments at launch time; the rest get shown as the user interacts with the app. A portion of the layout is as follows:</p> <pre><code>&lt;RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" &gt; &lt;fragment android:id="@+id/map_panel" android:name="com.example.MapPanel" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="@dimen/map_panel_height" /&gt; &lt;fragment android:id="@+id/list_panel" android:name="com.example.ListPanel" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_below="@+id/map_panel" /&gt; &lt;fragment android:id="@+id/detail_panel" android:name="com.example.DetailPanel" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_below="@+id/map_panel" android:visibility="gone" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>My intention is that the <code>list_panel</code> fragment is visible at startup, and the <code>detail_panel</code> fragment is hidden until the user selects something from the list.</p> <p>By default, a fragment starts out with the <code>isHidden</code> attribute as false. That means my activity has to iterate through the loaded fragments and manually call <code>isHidden(true)</code> on fragments like <code>detail_panel</code> at startup time. </p> <p>I would prefer to declare the <code>isHidden</code> status in the XML layout. However, setting <code>android:visibility="gone"</code> in a <code>&lt;fragment&gt;</code> declaration does not change the <code>isHidden</code> status, and I can't find any documentation on another attribute that would do the trick.</p> <p>Is it possible to set an XML attribute on a <code>&lt;fragment&gt;</code> to cause it to be hidden?</p> <p>Note: I'm not concerned with view visibility, I'm concerned with the <code>fragment.isHidden()</code> value. That affects how FragmentManager manipulates the back stack and performs animations. If you call <code>transaction.show(fragment)</code> on a fragment whose view is invisible or gone, but the <code>fragment.isHidden()</code> value is false, then the FragmentManager will not make the view visible. See <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Fragment.html#isHidden()">http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Fragment.html#isHidden()</a> for reference.</p>

    2. COYes, I did try "invisible" in addition to "gone". Neither affect the fragment's isHidden status.

    3. COWhat do you mean by "inaddition to gone". did you just try "invisible". In this case it will create the fragmment and keep it in invisible state.

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.
