EDIT: I have a Spinner layout which i\'m inflating. Is it possible

Answer 1

I used this code for ListView adaper:

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        View rowView;
        EntSaleDocumentDetails entSaleDocumentDetails = getItem(position);

        if (convertView == null) {
            LayoutInflater inflator = (LayoutInflater) getContext()
                    .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
            rowView = inflator.inflate(R.layout.myLayout,
                    null);
        } else {
            rowView = (View) convertView;
        }


        TextView myTv= (TextView) rowView
                .findViewById(R.id.tvCode);

        myTv.setTextSize(16);

        //....

        // set selected item
        LinearLayout ActiveItem = (LinearLayout) rowView;
        if (position == selectedItem)
        {
            ActiveItem
                    .setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.background_dark_blue);
        }
        else
        {
            ActiveItem
                    .setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.border02);
        }
        //....
}

public void setSelectedItem(int position) {
        selectedItem = position;
    }

your custom layout:

            </TableRow>
        </TableLayout>
    </LinearLayout>

</LinearLayout>

and in activity:

@Override
    protected void onListItemClick(ListView parent, View view, int position,
            long id) {
        super.onListItemClick(parent, view, position, id);
        adapter.setSelectedItem(position);
        myListView.invalidateViews();
    }
