Question

I am trying to add empty header or footer on ListView to create a space between top and bottom ListView. I could create another empty layout and add into it. But I’m try to find alternative in coding, create for example linear/frame layout with width (fill_parent) and height (say, 50dp) and add header into ListView.

Answer 1

you may do it in this way:

LinearLayout viewHeader = new LinearLayout(context);
viewHeader.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
LayoutParams lp = new LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, 50);
viewHeader.setLayoutParams(lp);

yourListView.addHeaderView(viewHeader, null, false);
