How to change the text color of dropdown in an AutoCompleteTextView?

Question

How can I change the text color in dropdown menu of an AutoCompleteTextView? Or how can I change the background color of a dropdown, by default dropdown\'s back

Answer 1

I solved this without inflating the layout using a custom adapter

1. Simply create a layout autocomplete_custom.xml

2. Use it in your adapter

   autocomplete.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(this,
           R.layout.autocomplete_custom, listContainingText););
   

Run. Bingo!
