how to change android spinner popupBackground

Question

I was trying to change the android spinner popup window background by setting the android:popupBackground, but it didn\'t have any effect. Is there any way I can change it?

Answer 1

android:popupBackground is only valid when using android:spinnerMode = "dropdown" , thats probably why it wasnt any effect in your code. You need to tell that spinner which mode its in with some XML.

android:spinnerMode = "dropdown"
