    <p>I have a fragment which is added programmatically. I have however discovered that after a rotation, a new fragment is created but the old fragment is still alive (though not being displayed) I assumed that fragments are destroyed along with the activity on rotation, but this is not the case here. What could be causing my fragment to be retained / not destroyed? Please note:</p> <ol> <li>I am not setting setRetainInstance.</li> <li>The fragment is not added in the activity onCreate (added later when a button is tapped)</li> <li>I can see onDestroy is being called for the Activity upon rotation</li> <li>Although the fragment is added, it obscures the add button and is only be dismissed when I do a "remove".</li> </ol> <p>Code creating the fragment:</p> <pre><code>MyFragment fragment = MyFragment(); FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager(); FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction(); fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.content_frame, fragment, "CurrentFragment"); fragmentTransaction.show(fragment).commit(); </code></pre> <p>Code removing the fragment:</p> <pre><code>FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction(); fragmentTransaction.remove(fragment).commit(); </code></pre> <p>UPDATE: I cannot confirm if this was the problem, but the fragment registers as a LocalBroadcast receiver in onCreate. It unregistered for broadcasts in onDestroy, but it seems that either the LocalBroadcast registration was preventing onDestroy being called, or onDestroy was not called upon rotation. I now unregister in onStop and this seems to have solved the issue.</p>

    1. COOk when you rotate your device, is that fragment shown? The one that was added by button press?

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.
