Spinner's scrollbar style
After hours of work, I got the right solution (Thanks Khaled for guiding me to the right direction). You need a custom spinner:
import java.lang.reflect.Field;
import java.lang.reflect.Method;
import org.holoeverywhere.widget.ListPopupWindow;
import org.holoeverywhere.widget.ListView;
import org.holoeverywhere.widget.Spinner;
import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.drawable.Drawable;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.view.View;
public class CustomSpinner extends Spinner
{
public CustomSpinner(Context context)
{
super(context);
}
public CustomSpinner(Context context, AttributeSet attrs)
{
super(context, attrs);
}
public CustomSpinner(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle)
{
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}
public CustomSpinner(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle, int mode)
{
super(context, attrs, defStyle, mode);
}
public CustomSpinner(Context context, int mode)
{
super(context, mode);
}
@Override
public boolean performClick()
{
boolean bClicked = super.performClick();
try
{
Field mPopupField = Spinner.class.getDeclaredField("mPopup");
mPopupField.setAccessible(true);
ListPopupWindow pop = (ListPopupWindow) mPopupField.get(this);
ListView listview = pop.getListView();
Field mScrollCacheField = View.class.getDeclaredField("mScrollCache");
mScrollCacheField.setAccessible(true);
Object mScrollCache = mScrollCacheField.get(listview);
Field scrollBarField = mScrollCache.getClass().getDeclaredField("scrollBar");
scrollBarField.setAccessible(true);
Object scrollBar = scrollBarField.get(mScrollCache);
Method method = scrollBar.getClass().getDeclaredMethod("setVerticalThumbDrawable", Drawable.class);
method.setAccessible(true);
method.invoke(scrollBar, getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.scrollbar_style));
if(VERSION.SDK_INT >= VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB)
{
Field mVerticalScrollbarPositionField = View.class.getDeclaredField("mVerticalScrollbarPosition");
mVerticalScrollbarPositionField.setAccessible(true);
mVerticalScrollbarPositionField.set(listview, SCROLLBAR_POSITION_LEFT);
}
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
return bClicked;
}
}
Note that I used HoloEveryWhere library, but the same solution would work with android.widget.Spinner
.
Spinners in Android doesn't have a Scrollbar, the scrollbar exist within the listView maintained inside the Spinner, and has no public access.
There's a run-time way to override it in the link below ..
