[android-developers] Creating scalable LinearLayout Background image
Hello, is it possible to create a LinearLayout background image that scales ? As for the EditText widgets, I am able to create background images (via draw9patch tool). There, I can define which image parts can be (horizontally/vertically) stretched and which not. So the resulting image is highly flexible. LinearLayout background images do scale with the height/width per default. But if my background image contains some sort of horizontal line on the very top, this line is vertically stretched as soon as the height of the Layout increases. Is it somehow possible to use draw9patch to create a scale-intelligent background image?

I haven't actually used the tool, but another idea is have a nested layout with your header or whatever that is not supposed to stretch and then the real LinearLayout with the portion that does stretch, both within a parent LinearLayout. - TreKing http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
