It may be that the content view always behaves as if layout_width and layout_height are fill_parent. Try putting your EditText inside a LinearLayout, setting layout_height and layout_width to your desired values, and see if that helps. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android Training on the Ranch in September! http://www.bignerdranch.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
