i am not sure if this is what you want but but what about this: you can use the Dialog theme and make your Activity appear like a dialog box: <activity android:theme = "@ android:style/ Theme.Dialog" > Or if you want the background to be transparent, use the Translucent theme: <activity android:theme = "@ android:style/ Theme.Translucent" > pskink -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
