Android Question Changing colors of AutoCompleteTextView

[Inman]

When AutoCompleteTextView displays the dropdown for text suggestions, the dropdown background color is black (or Holo Dark) while dropdown text is white. Since my app uses Holo Light theme, I wanted to invert this. I managed to change the dropdown background color by setting setDropDownBackgroundDrawable using Java Object but I couldn't find an option to change the text color of dropdown.

How can I change it?

if you are using this class you can change the ListViews layout to fit your needs in SearchView.bas

lv.Initialize("lv")
lv.SingleLineLayout.ItemHeight = 50dip
lv.SingleLineLayout.Label.TextSize = 14

Just add more layout-commands to change the listitems-layout, font-color and so on.

I did see SearchView but the problem is that I use the layout values of the EditText in many parts of the code, to design the UI. Since AutoCompleteTextView inherits from normal EditText, I can use it without any changes to the code. But SearchView is a bit more complicated. I can't access it's layout values directly and I think it's height is actually the total height of EditText and ListView but I use EditText.Height in many parts of the code, so changing it will be tough.

EDIT:
Never mind. After changing the background with setDropDownBackgroundDrawable, I changed the text color of dropdown using SetItems2.
