Question

I’ve been searching for this for quite a while but can’t seem to find it.

Is there any predefined widget in Android to implement a basic clickable item (with one of two lines of text) whose background turns to the theme’s color when clicked, like the ones seen here, for example:

And I mean, without using the PreferenceActivity class, which implements this automatically. Does this exist or do I have to implement my own customized view?

Thanks!

Edit:

I’ve added a TwoLineListItem like this and it doesn’t react to clicks (background doesn’t change)

    <TwoLineListItem
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:clickable="true"
    >

    <TextView android:id="@android:id/text1"
        android:layout_marginTop="1dip"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:textSize="15sp"
        android:textStyle="bold"
        android:text="Meh" />

    <TextView android:id="@android:id/text2"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@android:id/text1"
        android:layout_alignLeft="@android:id/text1"
        android:paddingBottom="4dip"
        android:includeFontPadding="false"
        android:textSize="15sp"
        android:textStyle="normal"
        android:text="Moo" />

</TwoLineListItem>

Does it only work inside ListViews? Because that way I’ll have to define my buttons in code and not in the XML, right?

Thanks!

The default layout for that is called android.R.two_line_list_item given by android.
