How can i give padding to list item as i show in image.
I want to make the divider in the layout as shown in the image.
this is my list fragment code
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_marginLeft="25dp"
android:layout_marginRight="25dp">
<ListView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:id="#+id/listV_main"
android:layout_marginLeft="25dp"
android:layout_marginRight="25dp"/>
This is my List section code
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingTop="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:paddingBottom="10dp">
<include
android:id="#+id/list_item_section_text"
layout="#android:layout/preference_category"
/>
This is my list item code
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:minHeight="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:paddingRight="?android:attr/scrollbarSize"
>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/showlist_item_entry_drawable"
android:layout_width="82dp"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:layout_height="68dp"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:paddingLeft="9dp"/>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dip"
android:layout_marginRight="6dip"
android:layout_marginTop="6dip"
android:layout_marginBottom="6dip"
android:layout_weight="1"
>
<TextView android:id="#+id/list_item_entry_title"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:singleLine="true"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
android:ellipsize="marquee"
android:fadingEdge="horizontal" />
<TextView android:id="#+id/list_item_entry_summary"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/list_item_entry_title"
android:layout_alignLeft="#id/list_item_entry_title"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
android:singleLine="true"
android:textColor="?android:attr/textColorSecondary" />
</RelativeLayout>
Use 'inset'.....
(list_divider.xml)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<inset xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:insetLeft="50dp"
android:insetRight="50dp" >
<shape>
<solid android:color="#color/orange" />
<corners android:radius="2.0dip" />
</shape>
</inset>
and in your list view add like this...
<ListView
android:dividerHeight="2dp"
android:divider="#drawable/list_divider"
...
/>
you can set the inset value as desired...
UPDATE
As pointed out by #Giulio Piancastelli , If the background of list container is different from background of list item then you may use 'layer-list'...
(list_divider.xml)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle" >
<solid android:color="#color/list_background" />
</shape>
</item>
<item
android:left="10dp"
android:right="10dp">
<shape android:shape="rectangle" >
<solid android:color="#color/divider_color"/>
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
and in your list view add like this...
<ListView
android:dividerHeight="2dp"
android:divider="#drawable/list_divider"
...
/>
You need padding for dividers? Create your custom drawable-shape as:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item
android:left="10dp"
android:right="10dp">
<shape android:shape="rectangle" >
<solid android:color="#android:color/black" />
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
And set as divider for your ListView in xml:
<ListView
android:dividerHeight="2dp"
android:divider="#drawable/custom_divider"
...
/>
UPD
I just have ListView in xml:
<ListView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:dividerHeight="2dp"
android:divider="#drawable/line"
/>
Divider as line.xml in drawable:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item
android:left="10dp"
android:right="10dp">
<shape android:shape="rectangle" >
<solid android:color="#android:color/black" />
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
Do not make any modifications on the ListView in code. You can try to use Clean if resources are wrong builded.
As #Giulio Piancastelli mentioned under #ASP answer, the <inset> fails when the background colour of the list container is not the same as the rows inside the list. One solution is to use <layer-list> like below:
//This item is to overlay the container colour with the row background colour
<item
android:left="0dp"
android:right="0dp">
<shape android:shape="rectangle" >
<solid android:color="#color/row_background" />
</shape>
</item>
//This item is the divider, put it at bottom so it will overlay the background colour
<item
android:left="92dp"
android:right="0dp">
<shape android:shape="rectangle" >
<solid android:color="#color/divider
</shape>
</item>
Then you can set it as divider as most answers suggest:
<ListView
android:dividerHeight="2dp"
android:divider="#drawable/layer_list"
...
/>
In your listitem give the paddingtop to the main layout as
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
android:padding="10dp"
....// Remaining fields
>
... //Remaining items
</LinearLayout>
this should be alternative solution for this question:
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="1dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="color/secondary_text"
android:layout_marginTop="16dp" />
I don't know why people are adding shape to the layered-list but for me this works just fine.
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:top="10dp" android:height="2dp" android:drawable="#android:color/holo_blue_dark"/>
<item android:height="22dp" android:drawable="#android:color/transparent"/>
</layer-list>
1st item will be 10dp from the top and with a height of 2dp and a color of holo_blue_dark. (This will be the divider)
Now to give 10dp margin to bottom we need to create another transparent item with a height of 22dp (10dp (top margin) + 2dp (height of divider) + 10dp(bottom margin from divider)).
This is working fine for me. I hope this will work for you too.
set your list item divider height and color:
<ListView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:id="#+id/listV_main"
android:layout_marginLeft="25dp"
android:layout_marginRight="25dp"
android:divider="#android:color/darker_gray"
android:dividerHeight="1dp"/>

I'm using a spinner in a relative layout with a couple of other layout elements (layout-v21):
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/spinner"
android:layout_width="155dp"
android:layout_height="34dp"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/textList"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/textList"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:layout_marginRight="0dp"
android:layout_toEndOf="#+id/textList"
android:paddingRight="1dp"/>
This sets the distance to where the parent layout ends:
android:layout_marginRight="0dp"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
This sets how close the choice items inside the spinner can get to the left of the arrow (right padding of the text):
android:paddingRight="1dp"
But is there a way to get rid of (or at least make smaller) the unnecessary space/padding that is to the right of the arrow but still within the spinner layout element (so I can then use more space on the left without changing the size of the spinner)?
This is what I'm talking about:
Edit: Here's the code for the RelativeLayout:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context="com.mycompany.myapp.MainActivity"
android:backgroundTint="#000000"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true">
It work for me :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingBottom="10dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:paddingTop="10dp"
android:backgroundTint="#000000"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true">
<Spinner
android:id="#+id/spinner"
android:layout_width="155dp"
android:layout_height="34dp"
style="#style/spinner_style"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:layout_marginRight="0dp"
android:paddingRight="1dp"/>
styles.xml
<style name="spinner_style">
<item name="android:layout_height">35dp</item>
<item name="android:background">#drawable/spinner_bg</item>
</style>
spinner_bg.xml

I have a listView with custom rows and I need to set a custom divider between each row.
This is the code of the listView:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ListView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/menu_padding"
android:background="#color/customBlue"
android:divider="#drawable/list_divider"
android:dividerHeight="2px" />
This is the code of the rows:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:orientation="horizontal"
tools:ignore="contentDescription"
android:background="#color/strongBlue" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/row_icon"
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:padding="10dp"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/row_title"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:padding="10dp"
android:textColor="#color/white"
android:textAppearance="#android:style/TextAppearance.Medium" />
</LinearLayout>
And this is the code for the 2 pixel divider:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:bottom="1px">
<shape android:shape="line">
<stroke
android:color="#0C0832"
android:width="2dp"
/>
<size
android:height="1px"
/>
</shape>
</item>
<item android:top="1px">
<shape android:shape="line">
<stroke
android:color="#2D2E57"
android:width="2dp"
/>
<size
android:height="1px"
/>
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
The problem is that I have a random space between each row that has the same color as the listView backgroundColor and if I set the dividerHeight to 4px I can see my divider. How can I remove the space that gets created automatically and only have my custom divider?
Use the following code in rows in linear layout
android:layout_marginTop="15dp"
Instead of pixel you can provide dp in xml
android:dividerHeight="10dp"
android:divider="#ffffff"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">;
<gradient
android:type="radial"
android:startColor="#343030"
android:endColor="#151515"
android:gradientRadius="300"
android:angle="270"
android:centerY="0.3"/>
</shape>
Instead of making custom drawable for divider you can directly give color to divider.
I was following this tutorial and I've applied that code in my xml but round corner is on full listview not in particular row. And I did exactly like the tutorial
<?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:baselineAligned="true">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/listaPedidos"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:divider="#color/background_pedidos"
android:dividerHeight="7dp"
android:padding="20dp"
android:background="#drawable/pedidos_shape"
android:smoothScrollbar="true"/>
</LinearLayout>
pedidos_shape:
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<stroke
android:width="2dp"
android:color="#color/custom_gray" />
<padding
android:left="5dp"
android:top="5dp"
android:right="5dp"
android:bottom="5dp" />
<corners
android:radius="8dp" />
<solid
android:color="#color/white"/>
</shape>
set background item.xml(custom listview row xml)
custom_listview_item.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/pedidos_shape">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageview"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_margin="5dp"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"/>
</LinearLayout>
Mistake:
You have given background to whole ListView.
Resolution:
Background should be given it to individual items. Remove android:background="#drawable/pedidos_shape" from the <ListView> and include it inside the row XML layout file.
You need to set android:background="#drawable/pedidos_shape"to the item layout that you are inflating in your adapter.
I want to add shadow to bottom of my ListView item !!
I tried paddingEdageLenght but no change happened !
I added circular edges but i can't add the shadow below the item
this is my list item xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:fadingEdgeLength="5sp" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/site_image"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:layout_width="65dp"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_margin="10dp"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/site_name"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/site_image"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:textSize="20sp"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/site_description"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/site_name"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/site_image"
android:textSize="15sp"/>
</RelativeLayout>
and this is my ListView xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<ListView
android:id="#+id/near_sites"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:fadingEdgeLength="5sp"
android:dividerHeight="10sp"
android:divider="#android:color/transparent" />
</RelativeLayout>
any help ?
In list_view_item, add a dummy View after your RelativeLayout and wrap them all at vertical LinearLayout like this:
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical">
<RelativeLayout>
...
...
</RelativeLayout>
<View
android:id="#+id/shadow"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="3dp" <!--or your needed height value-->
android:background="#drawable/shadow_drawable">
</View>
</LinearLayout>
and at drawable folder add the new shadow_drawable.xml and put this at it
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android=”http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android”>
<gradient
android:startColor="#color/#000000" <!--black-->
android:endColor="#color/#FFFFFF" <!--white-->
android:angle="90" <!-- angle of the gradient-->
>
</gradient>
</shape>
you have to add footerview in listview,
how to add footerview check bellow code,
private View footerView;
footerView = ((LayoutInflater)getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE)).inflate(R.layout.listview_footer, null, false);
ListView.addFooterView(footerView);
so, what ever you can do, in footer view.
You can make 9-patch image for border with shadow effect.
Create a new drawable resource file named "border.xml" in "res/drawable" and write the following code-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item >
<shape
android:shape="rectangle">
<gradient android:startColor="#ddd" android:endColor="#555" android:type="linear" />
<corners android:radius="0dp"/>
</shape>
</item>
<item android:right=".5dp" android:left=".5dp" android:bottom="2dp" android:top=".5dp">
<shape
android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#android:color/white"/>
<corners android:radius="0dp"/>
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
Just put android:background="#drawable/border" where you want to apply border.
You can change in android:right,android:left,android:top and android:bottom to give size to border. you can also make change in android:shape for more effect.
Hope its help for you !
I was looking for some ListView, styling techniques and I found this one Post-How to make card List, I wanted the ListItems to be just like this :
list_item_background.xml is :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle"
android:dither="true">
<corners android:radius="2dp"/>
<solid android:color="#ccc" />
</shape>
</item>
<item android:bottom="2dp">
<shape android:shape="rectangle"
android:dither="true">
<corners android:radius="2dp" />
<solid android:color="#android:color/white" />
<padding android:bottom="8dp"
android:left="8dp"
android:right="8dp"
android:top="8dp" />
</shape>
</item>
I have implemented that in my RowOfListView.xml like :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="#dimen/ten"
android:background="#drawable/list_item_background" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView_in_row"
android:layout_width="80dp"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/row_member_name"
android:layout_marginBottom="#dimen/ten"
android:layout_marginLeft="#dimen/five"
android:background="#drawable/rectangle"
android:contentDescription="#string/image"
android:src="#drawable/member" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/row_member_name"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="#dimen/ten"
android:layout_marginRight="#dimen/ten"
android:layout_marginTop="#dimen/ten"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/imageView_in_row"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:text="Text"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />
.
.
.
</RelativeLayout>
But I'm getting this one :
unable to get that margin between Items of ListView as in prior picture, where I should set that margin.
You can try like this for listview row xml:
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/outer"
style="#style/CardOuterStyle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/dialog_white"
android:orientation="vertical" >
//your fields here
</LinearLayout>
</FrameLayout>
and CardOuterStyle
<style name="CardOuterStyle">
<item name="android:paddingLeft">5dp</item>
<item name="android:paddingRight">5dp</item>
<item name="android:paddingTop">5dp</item>
</style>
You should set the dividerHeight of the ListView as :
<ListView android:id="#+id/MyListView"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:divider="#android:color/transparent"
android:dividerHeight="#dimen/ten"/>
Alternatively, you may also give padding in your relative layout:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="#dimen/ten"
android:background="#drawable/list_item_background"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/five"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/five" >
