Android Question Help with autocomplete please !

[dealsmonkey]

Hi,

I have set my app to use the holo.light theme using the manifest editor

SetApplicationAttribute(android:theme, @android:style/Theme.Holo.Light)

All is good except that my autocomplete edits have a white cursor and no edit text box until they have focus.

I need to keep the panels they are on as white for readability. I have tried the searchview class but am having problems with this not showing the listview !

Can anyone point me in the right direction of changing the patch nine image used for the box etc, I don't mind using the same one as the focused state

Thanks in advance

Neil

You can create a new 9 patch image and set it as the EditText Background. You do not need to create a StateListDrawable unless you need to disable the view.
