Question

I want to reduce width of spinner’s dropdown view.
my dropdown view is CheckedTextView.
I set width to CheckedTextView 300dp but It didn’t help. It took whole display anyway.

P.S . I wanted to post picture also but I don’t have enough reputation

Answer 1

Make sure you’re setting the layout_width attribute instead of width.

<CheckedTextView 
    android:id="@+id/myCheckedTextView"
    android:layout_width="width_you_want_in_dp"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

You can also do it programmatically like this:

myCheckedTextView.getLayoutParams().width = width_you_want_in_pixels;

Hope this helps!
