    <p>I have a listView with an adapter loading images from URLs through a ImageLoader class. The problem is, the images on the screen are not displayed/loaded until the list item has been scrolled off screen. </p> <p>So basically, the listView is shown, but no images are loaded until you scroll down and scroll back up again. This aplies to all the items in the list, when displaying them the first time no images are loaded until you scroll back to them.</p> <p>I have not written the ImageLoader class myself and Im having a hard time understanding exactly why the images don't load on the first displaying. Have tried alot of different things with the queue but nothing seems to help. </p> <p>The ImageLoader class:</p> <pre><code>public class ImageLoader { //the simplest in-memory cache implementation. This should be replaced with something like SoftReference or BitmapOptions.inPurgeable(since 1.6) private HashMap&lt;String, Bitmap&gt; cache=new HashMap&lt;String, Bitmap&gt;(); private File cacheDir; public ImageLoader(Context context){ //Make the background thead low priority. This way it will not affect the UI performance photoLoaderThread.setPriority(Thread.NORM_PRIORITY-1); //Find the dir to save cached images if (android.os.Environment.getExternalStorageState().equals(android.os.Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED)) cacheDir=new File(android.os.Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(),"LazyList"); else cacheDir=context.getCacheDir(); if(!cacheDir.exists()) cacheDir.mkdirs(); } final int stub_id=R.drawable.nopic; public void DisplayImage(String url, Activity activity, ImageView imageView, ProgressBar progressBar) { if(cache.containsKey(url)){ imageView.setImageBitmap(cache.get(url)); if (progressBar != null){ progressBar.setVisibility(View.GONE); imageView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE); } }else{ queuePhoto(url, activity, imageView, progressBar); if(progressBar != null){ imageView.setVisibility(View.GONE); //ADDED progressBar.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE); } else { imageView.setImageResource(stub_id); } } } private void queuePhoto(String url, Activity activity, ImageView imageView, ProgressBar progressBar) { //This ImageView may be used for other images before. So there may be some old tasks in the queue. We need to discard them. photosQueue.Clean(imageView); PhotoToLoad p = new PhotoToLoad(url, imageView, progressBar); synchronized(photosQueue.photosToLoad){ photosQueue.photosToLoad.push(p); photosQueue.photosToLoad.notifyAll(); } //start thread if it's not started yet if(photoLoaderThread.getState()==Thread.State.NEW) photoLoaderThread.start(); } private Bitmap getBitmap(String url) { //I identify images by hashcode.

    1. COYour adapter never sets the image? The ImageLoader class is never used?!

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
