Is it possible to override the standard layouts that are provided with Android? Is it for example possible to make the text smaller for android.R.layout.simple_list_item_checked? Or would I simply need to make my own layout to do this? Thanks.
You have to make your own layout. In order to make a custom layout and use a standard adapter (like ArrayAdapter) you have to specifiy the same id(s) in your custom layout as in the standard layouts. For example the TextView in simple_list_item_checked has the id “@android:id/text1” (http://www.devdaily.com/java/jwarehouse/android-examples/platforms/android-2/data/res/layout/simple_list_item_checked.xml.shtml). In your custom layout you specify that id. Thus you do not have to write a custom adapter. So the best way is just by copying the standard xml layout and change what you wanne change
