I am trying to create a listview with add button on the side as shown in the right image http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/images/android.png
Is it possible to reuse this existing layout object. If so what is it called exactly? All I can find in the default listview is simple checkboxes and other listviews without buttons.
You can create your own listview by making an extra xml in your layout folder.
for example your make a textview and next to that textview a button, then inflate that.
