i got the following problem.
i have a ListView with custom rows consisting of an imageview and a textview. the textview's xml code is
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/label"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="26px"
android:layout_marginLeft="3px"
android:singleLine="true"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:textColorHighlight="#FEC403"
/>
then i have an itemclicklistener that works fine and i want to highlight the textview that has been clicked by doing the following.
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adaptview, View clickedview, int position,
long id) {
//TODO: ACTIONS
String pathtofile = (String) adaptview.getItemAtPosition(position);
View rowview = (View) adaptview.getChildAt(position);
rowview.setSelected(true);}
i wanted the highlight color to be "#FEC403" in the xml (that is a light orange) but the highlightcolor still is gray. so how to set the highlightcolor correctly?
thanks in advance
EDIT:
here is how i did it finally:
this is my ListView Item xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="@drawable/rowselector"
>
<ImageView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/musicicon"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:src="@drawable/musicicon"
android:paddingLeft="3px"
/>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/label"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="26px"
android:layout_marginLeft="3px"
android:singleLine="true"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:focusable="false"
/>
and the rowselector.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_selected="true"
android:drawable="@color/orange" />
</selector>
and at last my OnItemClick is very short now:
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adaptview, View clickedview, int position,
long id) {
//TODO: ACTIONS
clickedview.setSelected(true);
}
@Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long arg3)
{
for(int a = 0; a < parent.getChildCount(); a++)
{
parent.getChildAt(a).setBackgroundColor(Color.BLACK);
}
view.setBackgroundColor(Color.RED);
}
