Not specifically for a list row background color. However, here is a sample <selector> from the Android source code for EditText: <selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";> <item android:state_focused="true" android:drawable="@drawable/editbox_background_focus_yellow" /> <item android:drawable="@drawable/editbox_background_normal" /> </selector> I would guess there is an android:state_selected="true" you could use to specify the drawable for the selected state. Save this file in res/drawable as yournamehere.xml and then reference it like any other drawable (e.g., R.drawable.yournamehere). Substitute in something appropriate for yournamehere, of course... -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _Android Programming Tutorials_ Version 1.0 Available! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
