Answer 1

If you just want a line displayed i recommend you to create a Drawable for this. Heres a little example: Layout file

and the line.xml Drawable

The Layer-list may also be changed to use up additional Drawables as the ones you are already using.

An example using draw-9 might look like this: line.xml

Layout:

to apply a draw-nine-patch you must mark the parts to be streched with black color on the borders.
