Question

I have an alert dialog (image and text in each row), but it is too wide. How can I change the width of the dialog?

My code:

    ListAdapter adapter = new AnimalAdapter(this, _options );

    final AlertDialog.Builder ad = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);

    ad.setTitle("Options");
    ad.setSingleChoiceItems( adapter, -1, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
            String selectedVal = _options[which].getVal();
            options_selected_item = selectedVal;
            dialog.dismiss();
        }
    });
    ad.show();

I have tried adding ad.getWindow().setLayout(600, 400); before and after ad.show(); but I get

The method getWindow() is undefined for the type AlertDialog.Builder.

Take a look here at some of the solutions that I suggested. I give a code example and try to explain how it works.
