You can make them whatever size you want. A ListView just displays whatever view the adapter passes to it. So, for the API example that you linked to the Adapter is set like this:
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, mStrings)); This will use the built in android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1 layout file (built into android). Instead you could create a new layout file (my_new_layout.xml) with a TextView named "text1" and pass this new layout into the adapter: setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.my_new_layout, mStrings)); -- Zach Hobbs HelloAndroid.com Android OS news, tutorials, downloads On Tuesday 01 April 2008 17:23:35 Zach wrote: > I'm sorry but I thought more about this and it simply doesn't make any > sense.
