Can someone tell me how to create the above dialog view similar/exactly to the link [here][1], whereby the focus of the problem is to create the view in the centre of the pi
The best approach will be custom dialog. As it will be helpful creating all those background colours and the effect. I am sure the link you have posted is using custom dialog as well,
cheers

/// In your code implementations just add this code when you create dialog....after having this just have all TextView arranged in your layout and add that layout id to this below code good luck
//Dialog box creator
private Dialog constructYourDialog()
{
//Preparing views
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.***your_xml_name***, (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.***Yout view id***));
//Building dialog
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
builder.setView(layout);
builder.setPositiveButton("Show Videos", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
Log.i("","Show Video Click");
dialog.dismiss();
});
builder.setNegativeButton("E-Mail", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
Log.i("","E-mail Click");
dialog.dismiss();
}
});
builder.setNeutralButton("Show Map", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
Log.i("","Show Map Click");
dialog.dismiss();
}
});
AlertDialog alert = builder.create();
return alert;
}
Try following code
Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
builder.setTitle("Alert !");
builder.setMessage("your text here");
builder.setPositiveButton("Show Video", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener()
{
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which)
{
connect = false;
}
});
builder.setNegativeButton("Show Map", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener()
{
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface arg0, int arg1)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
});
builder.setNeutralButton("Show Both", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener()
{
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface arg0, int arg1)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
});
builder.show();
UPDATE: To show custom title create a layout and inflate it using below code
LayoutInflater mInflater = LayoutInflater.from(mContext);
View layout = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.popup_example, null);
Remove following line from above code
builder.setTitle("Alert !");
and then set using
builder.setCustomTitle(layout)
