Do you try to draw a picture/image (ImageView) inside a frame (my_background)?
If so, have the my_background resource draw a shape-drawable, e.g. a rectangle with rounded corner with a padding on all 4 sides. Then assign my_background to a layout (e.g. linear layout). Make the ImageView a child of this layout. /--------------\LinearLayout where background is set to *my_background* | /----------\ | | | ImageView | | | | | | | | | \----------/ | \--------------/ drawable\*my_background*.xml= <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";> <padding android:top="40dp" android:left="10dp" android:bottom="40dp" android:right="10dp"/> <corners android:radius="5dp"/> <solid android:color="@color/my_background_color"/> <stroke android:width="1dp" android:color="@color/my_border_color"/> </shape> This is just an example, you'd have to tweak it and such :) For more info about XML drawables, look here: http://idunnolol.com/android/drawables.html -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
