Basically, you want to create a custom component, which you can then use throughout your application. Essentially, you just create a XML component (any View component) that you can then include in your other layout XML files by referencing a unique namespace you created. Link: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/custom-components.html Pseudo-code: Custom Component: com.your.namespace.CustomComp.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:orientation="horizontal"> <TextView android:id="@+id/infotitle" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"/> <TextView android:id="@+id/infodata" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"/> </LinearLayout> Including it in your layout: <LinearLayout>... <com.your.namespace.CustomComp android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"/> </LinearLayout> On May 2, 2:22 pm, Nick <[email protected]> wrote: > I have a top action bar in my application, similar to how the Twitter and > Facebook apps have it set up.
