对话框中不显示EditText提示和TextViews

Question

Would highly appreciate any help with this as I am doing this for a project that's due soon.

I have my EditText and TextViews in a dialog box, being created in java, and I'm curious as to why nothing seems to be displaying properly...

It displays fine in android studio's rendering preview: Android Studio Screenshot

However, In the actual emulator this is what displays: Emulator Screenshot

Here is my name_entry.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

<TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
    android:text="Player 1 Name:"
    android:id="@+id/textView3" />

<EditText
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:inputType="textPersonName"
    android:ems="10"
    android:id="@+id/player1_name" />

<TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
    android:text="Player 2 Name:"
    android:id="@+id/textView4" />

<EditText

    android:inputType="textPersonName"

    android:id="@+id/player2_name" />

<TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
    android:text="Player 3 Name:"
    android:id="@+id/textView5" />

<EditText
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:inputType="textPersonName"
    android:ems="10"
    android:id="@+id/player3_name" />

<TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
    android:text="Player 4 Name:"
    android:id="@+id/textView6" />

<EditText
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:inputType="textPersonName"
    android:ems="10"
    android:id="@+id/player4_name" />

Answer 1

Use this to get layout inflater from the current Activity

LayoutInflater li = this.getLayoutInflater();

instead of using LayoutInflater li = LayoutInflater.from(getApplicationContext());

Answer 2

There is nothing wrong with your code. I have tested it as shown below. It might be something with your Emulator.
