Are you sure? This sounds like exactly what I was asking earlier today, based on my experience with Spinner. I speculated that ListView might exhibit the same behavior.
You describe the behavior I was expecting. Instead, the Spinner ignored all constraints. If I put it first in the layout, it would overlay or squeeze out the text. (I forget what distinguished the two behaviors). If I put it second, the text would fail to wrap and the Spinner would get squeezed out. I just could not get the Adapter-supplied views to participate in the sizing process. I expect that I could have given it a fixed size, but that would be a bug itself. I don't have time to try it again with ListViews at the moment, but if anyone can confirm this working, especially with RelativeLayout, I'd appreciate it.
