The simplest solution I found was to : Instantiate a Dialog with a Theme that sets the windowBackground to my custom background, inflate my custom layout that has its views styled for the requisite font color etc, and insert my custom layout into the Dialog using #Dialog#addContentView
<style name="DialogTheme" parent="android:style/Theme.Dialog"> <item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/dialog_background</ item> <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item> <!-- Hides the Dialog title bar View. --> </style> I did the above in a very simple Dialog factory, but you could just as easily subclass DIalog and do it in the constructor. Create a class that extends Dialog and in its construcor. I wish I done this earlier rather than trying to fruitlessly style the existing ProgressDialog. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
