Is it planned to include Android gui elements to the mockup UI Libary? The android elements are somewhat helpfull but Android style elements would be awesome.

Inappropriate?Hi Falko, do you have some links to Android-specific stencils we could use as template? I guess we could look at the SDK too
-
Inappropriate?You can download the SDK http://developer.android.com/sdk/1.1_... and when you launch the emulator there should be an application called "API Demos" it has samples of most of the the UI elements. You should be able to get images from there.
The emulator runs on all OS, so you should not have any problems :)
hope I could help

Inappropriate?To save us all a step, can you post some screens of the widgets you would like to see added?

Inappropriate?I'd be also very grateful if you were able to integrate Android UI elements!
I’m unsure

Inappropriate?Hi all! is there any progress with android UI elements or a date when they will be available? Or does someone add them in the community area?
Would be really great!

Inappropriate?Is there anyway the community could help to speed this up? 18-20 Android models to be released in the next few months = a very big user base soon.
How can we help, e.g., more detailed specifications for android elements, etc.? -
Inappropriate?OK everyone, I hear Android talk heating up more and more. I'll see if Mariah can draw some of these controls this week and I hope to add them to the app soon.
I’m excited

Inappropriate?Thanks for working on this. Please let us know if there is a way for us to help out. A couple of thoughts come to my mind. First is to give examples as Falko has done. Ideally that would come with some comments about the most used elements. Some indications of some good apps that demonstrate usage of the UI elements could also be helpful.
Secondly, on a related note it would be nice to have headers and footers on the iphone table views. BTW, the multi-line table views was a huge addition. Also the ability to adjust font sizes on the table views. What we need from good wireframe/mockup tools as developers is 90% layout accuraccy. Without that we can't the the number of screens and screen control flow correct, which is really the point of the mockup tool for my company anyway.
Thanks for the hard work. We have been looking extensively in to tools and I think you have the right balance between quickness of the mockup and accuracy to get screen flows down.
Keep up the hard work! I have reccomended your tool too many people and I will continue to do so. I am an ex-Motorolan and I know well the guys who lead the Android development their. I will be happy to reccomend Balsamiq to them. I meet with one of the head development managers on Monday and will mention Balsamiq to him.
I’m excited. Balsamiq is making me more productive!
