Thanks Sean.. It's been days that the emails didn't go through, so I
also posted on android-developers group, and got an answer:
<EditText android:id="@+id/title" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
style="?android:attr/textViewStyle"
android:background="@null" android:textColor="@null"/>
You can check out the whole thread here:
http://groups.google.rs/group/android-developers/browse_frm/thread/90634ccca4559752/1ee9a6a2f60fb86e?lnk=gst&q=%22Is+there+an+easy+way%22#1ee9a6a2f60fb86e
I guess that changing the TextView to recive input is basically what
EditView does.
Thanks Sean
