Question

My listview background doesn’t change when calling listView.setBackgroundDrawable().

I’ve searched a lot but didn’t find a solution.

This is the code

ListView v= new ListView(Menu2.this);
v.setBackgroundDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.android));
Context c=v.getContext();
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(c, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, list));

The background stays as if I didn’t call the method.

Thanks.

Use this :

ListView v= getListView();
v.setBackground(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.android));

Instead of,

ListView v= new ListView(Menu2.this);
v.setBackgroundDrawable(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.android));
