I need to set padding for the TextView
in every row of ListView
or ExpandableListView
.
I try to use android:padding
and child (paddingLeft
,...) but without any results. How can I do?
Thanks
EDIT:
This is the code of the item of the ExpandableListView
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:padding="20dp" >
<TextView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="@+id/titleScheda"
android:text="TextView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
android:padding="20dp" />
</LinearLayout>
Setting padding on both layout and TextView
doesn't work, even if the padding is set in only one of the 2 tags.
EDIT :
Solved. The problem was in the Java code, in the SimpleExpandableListAdapter
declaration. Using the standard layout it's impossible to customize, but using a custom layout for the expandable content is the solution that allows us to customize anything.
I assume you're adding the items in the listview using a template file (xml layout). If you're not, you have to implement that first.
In that layout file you could do this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:padding="10dp" >
<TextView
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="@+id/text" />
</LinearLayout>
The LinearLayout will create the padding and wrap around the TextView.
