Question

I have a problem with a listview that crashes during orientation change. More specifically, it crashes only if the listview is “sliding” during orientation change. The layout are different in portrait/landscape and the views of the listview incorporate in landscape layout a custom view. It crashes because the findViewById on the custom view returns null. The strange thing is it only happens when sliding the listview!

I also tried to find a way to stop sliding the listview, but with no luck…

Thank you for any suggestion.
