Change Color Of Selected Listview Item

I want to change color of list item when it will press For that I did like below, list_item_selector.xml Copy

list_item_selector.xml

<selectorxmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"><itemandroid:state_focused="true"><shape><solidandroid:color="#66FFFFFF" /></shape></item><item><shape><solidandroid:color="#FF666666" /></shape></item></selector>

Solution 2:

You should be setting the selector to the row and not the listview itself.

Solution 3:

<itemandroid:state_activated="true"><shapeandroid:shape="rectangle"><solidandroid:color="#333333" /><paddingandroid:left="5dp"android:right="5dp" /></shape></item><item><shapeandroid:shape="rectangle"><solidandroid:color="#222222" /></shape></item>

Solution 4:

Try with a custom adapter this also helps you to have full control over your items and set a default item selected; listView XML and item XML have no special setup.

publicclassListAdapterextendsArrayAdapter<MyObj> {

privatefinalint layoutInflater;
private Context context;
private  List<MyObj> items;
privateintmSelectedItem=0;
privateintTAG_UNSELECTED=0;
privateintTAG_SELECTED=1;

publicListAdapter(Context context, int resource, List<MyObj> items) {
    super(context, resource, items);
    this.context = context;
    this.layoutInflater = resource;
    this.items = items;
}

publicvoidselectItem(int position) {
    mSelectedItem = position;
    notifyDataSetChanged();
}


@OverridepublicintgetViewTypeCount() {
    return2;
}

@OverridepublicintgetItemViewType(int position) {
    returnposition== mSelectedItem ? TAG_SELECTED : TAG_UNSELECTED;
}


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

    Viewv= convertView;
    if (v == null) {
        LayoutInflatervi= (LayoutInflater)context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        v = vi.inflate(layoutInflater, null);
    }

    MyObjmyObj= items.get(position);
    TextViewtextView= (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.title);
    textView.setText(myObj.title);

    inttype= getItemViewType(position);
    if(type == TAG_SELECTED) {
        v.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#1da7ff"));
        textView.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#ffffff"));
    } else {
        v.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#f8f8f8"));
        textView.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#474747"));
    }

    return v;
}

}

Then in your activity:

ListViewlistView= (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list_view);
            ListAdapteradapter=newListAdapter(mContext, R.layout.item_layout, list);
            listView.setAdapter(adapter);
            adapter.selectItem(0); // Default selected item// Get selected item and update its background
            listView.setOnItemClickListener(newAdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
                @OverridepublicvoidonItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View v, int position, long id) {
                    adapter.selectItem(position);
                }
            });

Solution 5:

use this

android:background="@drawable/list_item_selector""
