Thanks a lot for your answer ;) Before to use my own nine-patch, I'd like to understand what I'm wrong extending the RelativeLayout. So, in other topics I found that Roman Guy suggested to use setWillNotDraw(false). Using this flag I can show my Custom Layout correctly running on a device (why?), but I continue to not see its own child in the Eclipse editor. It isn't a big problem, because I know what I'm doing, but I'd like that all the things work fine also with the editor. About this Eclipse shows me a warining that says:
"AndroidManifest: Ignoring unknown 'TextView' XML element" - com.android.ide.eclipse.adt where TextView is RelativeLayout's chid. Maybe I'm forgetting something... :( On 16 Dic, 12:42, Kostya Vasilyev <[email protected]> wrote: > 16.12.2010 14:34, Paolo пишет: > > > I've tried, but I don't like that nine-patch.
