If you are using the stock themes, your <uses-sdk> element already shows "new style checkboxes". If you created your own custom theme, you will need to create a second version of it, in res/values-v11/, that inherits from a Holo theme (e.g., Theme.Holo). -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 4.4 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
