Hi, Thanks for your reply. I need a spinner, which when clicked I get a drop down view which do not cover the entire width of the screen.
In my application i display all the items of the sdcard in table layout. I have a spinner on top of my application with some options. So when i click the spinner, i get a drop down, which covers the entire width of screen, and so i cant see any items of sdcard. But i want to see the items on the layout. How can i do that? thanks in advance. On Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 11:43 AM, Kumar Bibek <coomar....@gmail.com> wrote: > It is possible.
