Thanks Mark --
Doesn't this sort of violate the MVC pattern? Moreover, does it seem
odd to you that both the adapter and ListView have methods to cough up
a view? Pre-selecting check boxes is sure becoming a difficult-to-do
process!
I am in the debugger and experimenting with how I might get the view
from the list as you suggested.
I have tried
list.getChildAt(0); which returned null
list.getItemAtPosition(0) which returned
android.content.contentresolver$cursorwrapperin...@4375e088
list.getRootView() which returned
com.android.internal.policy.impl.phonewindow$decorv...@4375ac38
Can you throw me another clue?
