Hi, I've been following this thread trying to get listviews working and think I may have cracked it. I'm new to Android development so dont bite my head off if its wrong but I got this working ok;
The key to it is the android:duplicateParentState="true" I'm not sure which Layout you'll need to put it on yours but hopefully you can see how it works. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:orientation="horizontal" android:minHeight="40sp"> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_weight="1" android:orientation="horizontal" android:duplicateParentState="true"> <TextView android:id="@+id/itemname" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:textSize="20sp" android:text="Item Name" /> </LinearLayout> <TextView android:id="@+id/duration" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="right" android:layout_marginRight="20sp" android:layout_marginLeft="10sp" android:textSize="20sp" android:text="0 Days" /> </LinearLayout> On Jul 10, 9:44 am, eags <eagsala...@gmail.com> wrote: > Bump.
