I'm trying to figure out how to change the default white background from a spinner. I've tried a couple of things and looked around on this newsgroup and elsewhere online. There have been a few related questions, but I haven't deduced the answer yet (maybe I just didn't understand what I've read). Am I on the right track or waay off?
Here is what I've got so far: spinner = (Spinner)findViewById(R.id.spinner); ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.spinner_item, data); adapter.setDropDownViewResource(R.layout.spinner_dropdown); spinner.setBackgroundDrawable(null); spinner.setAdapter(adapter); This does what you would expect - it hooks up the Spinner and spinner.setBackgroundDrawable(null) removes the background from the unfocused view. However, I can't figure out how to remove the white background shown when you click on the Spinner and it to "pops up". I figured this might be possible by setting the background of the spinner_dropdown TextView by using an empty/transparent PNG as a background: <TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"; android:singleLine="true" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="@drawable/empty"/> This does set the background of an individual row, but it seems there is another View wrapping all the rows that is drawing the white background. How can I eliminate or replace the default white background from the wrapping view? Or... have I misinterpreted the situation? Is there a preferred way to style a Spinner?
