I'm looking at APIs and have absolutely no idea how to create and show the PopupWindow. Why are the APIs are written in such a way that people need to search for other resources in order to understand how to use a particular thing?

Well, anyway, can you please describe how can I create and show PopupWindow? Thanks a lot.

The point of the APIs is to provide technical documentation. Their primary purpose is as a reference material, not as a learning tool. That said you can learn a lot from reading them. In general I find that googleing for tutorial tends to get me started in the right direction. There are lots of examples of PopupWindows in android, check out this StackOverflow post: Is there a simple example of the PopupWindow class using Android v2.0?
